Nik: I apologise if I wasn't too clear but yes I was referring to the pads themselves and not the earcup/cable. I find that having the large part of the pads at the back gives the best seal. I tried other orientations but the bass seem to get too mushy/boomy or the earpads would sit funny on my...

I was mildly surprised that my searches came up empty on this subject. Anyhow, I finally got my KGSS operational and I've been listening to my Omega IIs and I wondered about the earpad orientation. When I received my Omega IIs, the fattest part of the pad was oriented to the back half of...

I suspect that you've been bitten by the Startpage Trojan. A few friends got bitten by it and I had to help clean up their machines. I believe that it is a new strain going around. Symantec does not account for it last I checked but McAfee does. I'm assuming that you are using IE. Go into...

Okay. Next weekend probably works too. I might have the official jacks by then. Yeah, I put in the can transistors in reverse as well as fixed the ground error in the "new" power supply board.

a) Not to worry. I'll make it painless. You won't know what hit you. b) My Omega 2s just got here this morning. If you are up to wiring up a jack then you are welcome to borrow them for the weekend. I have Kevin's recommended alternative jack. I'm ordering an official Stax one but it will...

Actually, I know some people who have used 2 to 5W amplifiers to give enough voltage swing for electrostatics. Of course, the amps probably didn't like that kind of work since most expect fairly low impedances (you would need some serious load impedance to make a 2 to 5W amplifier give up the...

You should hear the HE90s out of the KGSS or Blue Hawaii Hybrid. Rumour has it that someone in Seattle has 3 Orpheus systems. He/She/It wanted the same system in three different rooms. I suppose that it's cheaper than having your butler cart your Orpheus around behind you.

The allen screw is 1/16".

*sniff* I'm going to be banned from Head-Fi. Woe is me! That's okay. It'll give me more time to listen to: 1) HP-1s and Maestrobator 2) Omega IIs and KGSS And it probably won't be long before I buy R10s and I think I've found a source for NOS HE90s (Orpheus headphones).
