You organize and host - we'll be there.

The old YH-1's look old and ratty but they are probably my most used phones of all that I've had, including the Stax O2, AKG. K1000, and the previous top models from Senn, AKG, and Beyer.

I have an amp for the Stax. The Yamaha Orthos need an amp. Maybe I can bring the old Magnavox amp. We'll see.

I am just returning from extended travel, and I have much catching up to do.  I will be there for only a short while at the beginning with the Stax Lambda Pros, Stax amp, and Yamaha Orthodynamic phones.  I figured that these are somewhat rare things that you guys might want have a chance to...

I used to host yearly meets in Lawrence from 2004-2009.  I kind of went underground with the HeadFi stuff, partly because I do not like the new site format that came out a while back.  This is my first post in a long time.   Anyhow, I might be able to host a small gathering at my house in...

Thanks Jeremy. That is the best way to do this. I was prepared to send mine out, but I wasn't comfortable with the free pads in exchange for this. Anyhow, I am still a go for a set for my HD600's. This is a good and worthwhile project. Is there a central command post for keeping track of the...

Could be a Jayhawk fan there too.

Bumping an old thread here. Just picked up a nice set of SA-5000's here on the 'Fi. I had heard Earjam's set a few times at our Lawrence Kansas meets and was lukewarm but not negatively inclined toward them. When I sold my last Stax phone, I thought I'd give them a shot to balance my Senn...

Very helpful take on the T1. Thanks for that!

OK, I'm back home in KS now. Pulled the 'middle aged' pads from my HD600 which are now about 4 years old and have had a good bit of use. They are not as thick nor as firm as my brand new set, but better than my old ones in the earlier pictures. I will give up my brand new ones ($50 from...

I've been in touch with Jeremy back and forth for the last few days. To recap: I have some old 600 pads that I can give up. I checked them against some brand new pads and the new pads were about 1/8" thicker and firmer (see post #209 above). We all concur that we want thicker pads. Jeremy...

OK folks. I've been in touch with Jeremy. I have an old set that I don't want anymore, and also a brand new set in the package. I opened the new ones up and they are much thicker and firmer than the old ones. Don't know if the old ones started out thicker and firmer because I did not buy them...

Interested. I would try to arrange a business trip to Charlotte around it if I can.
