    I'll be there. I guess I'll be "DAMNED BY ASSOCIATION" because I enjoy attending meets... Oh well. By the way, I'll bring my camera.

    Cincinatti Coffee Shop Shuffle! What a blast!

    Many thanks to Jacob for putting on a great meet! Thanks also to Tyll for going out of his way to visit us in Cincinnati. Tyll really is a down-to-earth guy and a pleasure to talk to. I was amazed at the quantity and quality of the equipment at this meet. Most every dynamic headphone made was...

    Ohio Mini-Meet #3

    Sorry that I couldn't make this meet folks. Sounds like there was lots of new goodies to check out! I wondered if Mikey01 brought his 880's along too? If so did anyone compare the DT880 to the 990? Hope to see everyone in June.

    anyone using a PDA for GPS?...

    I've been using GPS software for several years. First I used Mapopolis with a variety of Sony's and Palms and now I use CoPilot Live with an HP 6315. The CoPilot software is excellent. It's very stable and never crashes on me. A rare thing in my experience with Pocket PC's. The maps for a large...

    What do you think about the crossfeed?

    I've owned three different Meier amps and found that the crossfeed made listening more enjoyable. At lower settings, the effect on the Meier's is subtle. I found that the highest setting was almost always too much - the music just turned into a blob of sound. I have since switched to tube amps...

    Cincinnati, Ohio meet impressions-1/29/2005

    Many thanks to Mickey01 and his family for not only letting us take over their house on Saturday but feeding us all to boot. It was nice to see sacd lover and bg4533 made the trip all the way from Newark/Columbus to join us. I've read many of sacd lover's posts and it was great to finally meet...

    DAC for tubelover?

    Like sacd lover, I also own the P-3A/P-1A combo w/ the P3 power supply & cables. The only difference is that my P-3A has the Modwright level 1 mod. I'm not sure how much difference this makes over stock, but my particular dac has solid bass response. I have listened to it both with and without...

    DAC for tubelover?

    There are several DAC's I would recommend. The Bel Canto DAC2 accepts two inputs and has a smooth, warm sound. I would also highly recommend the Perpetual P-3A. It has more detail than the Bel Canto but is also very smooth with solid mid-range and bass. The Bel Canto's are going for $700-$800 on...

    SONY R10- Is cult statis deserved- or not??

    I've been lucky enough to own a pair of R10's for about the past month and also have a pair of PS-1's. The "cult status" of the R10 is likely due to its exclusivity and cost. Is it worth the price? If folks are willing to plunk down $3,000+ for it, probably so. The R10 and PS-1 are polar...

    Fall Cincinnati Meet Impressions

    Bob, welcome to Head-Fi - good luck in putting together your headphone rig. It's a great obsession. My brand-spanking new R10's arrived safely today. Opening that incredible leather case, I felt like a kid at Christmas. They are wonderful headphones, but it will take some time to break them in...

    Ultimate Headphones for Computer Gaming?

    I use the Beyerdynamic DT770 (with a Meier HA-1 amp). It's the best gaming headphone I have ever heard. The same bloated bass that makes it less than ideal for music, makes it great for explosions! Good isolation from computer noise and comfortable. It's hard to drive but for a while I used it...

    What is the different between Grado PS-1 and RS-1 headphone?

    I have both the 325's and the PS-1. I use both of them every day (325's at work and PS-1's at home) The PS-1's have more bass, but it's not overwhelming or distracting like the Beyer DT770. For me, it's the most enjoyable headphone I have ever listened to. The PS-1 compliments any musical...

    a900 vs cd3000 ?

    I've got both. The A900's were first and I loved them. After reading all of the comments about the cd3000's, I decided to give them a try. Both are great headphones, but for me the cd3000's are more detailed and have a three dimensional quality that I love. I still use the A900's occasionally...

    You people promote evil behavior

    Being a new head-fi'er, I still try to look at it from the "glass is half-full" perspective. Look at all the money I didn't waste buying junk like food and clothing!
