Anytime you experience ringing following exposure to high sound pressure (loud music, loud machinery, etc), regardless of how long the ringing lasts, the damage is irreversible.  It may seem like the ringing goes away, but it's cumulative over time.     In your 20's and 30's we all...

Subject says it all.  I purchased one of these for my HD650's (http://tinyurl.com/4lspga4) and am hoping something similar becomes available for the LCD-2's.

I ordered on 12/26, PayPal confirmation sent on 2/25, FedEx delivery scheduled for today (3/2).  8+ weeks, which was sooner than I had anticipated given I ordered over the holidays.     Quote:  

Ka-CHING!  Invoice arrived and I just pulled the lever.  So very happy...   Quote:  

I pre-ordered on Dec. 26th and haven't received an e-mail yet ... maybe it will come momentarily?   Quote:

SPOILER ALERT:  Another in the series of "I ordered mine on X date, anyone around that time get notification?" posts.   I ordered on Dec. 26th; anyone else who ordered around that time get notification yet?  (I think I saw a Dec. 23rd order who got a PayPal invoice on Feb. 14th).  And for...

I wonder if one can order them shipped in the new case, and also pay for the wooden box (or vice versa) . . .

I'm confused about which Pelican case would be good - the 1200?  the 1300?     Also, which sized case would be good for, say, three pair of phones?

Quote: Thanks for your reply.  Like most (all?) DVD-A/SACD/DVD-V players, it has 6 RCA jacks for 5.1 analogue outputs as well as the standard stereo pair.  The user manual doesn't specify which is correct for 2.0 hi-rez playback, but the noise floor that is present on the Right Front and...

Equipment:  Denon DVD-758 (SACD/DVD-A) stereo 2.0 analogue output -> Audio-gd FUN -> HD650/RE0   For SACD/DVD-A stereo (2.0) output into my headphone amp, does anyone know whether I should use the standard stereo output jacks or should I be using the Right Front and Left Front jacks (from...

I also was debating between buying the B version and upgrading a few things, until I just figured I might as well get an A instead.  I had them upgrade the SPDIF to the Wolfson WM8805, and I installed an OPA-Earth module when it arrived.  I wish I would have also ordered at least the Moon...

Quote: I'm interested in attending, but March 12th is much better for me (if it's on March 5th I could only go in the morning).

I filled out the pre-order form on Audeze's web site and submitted it several weeks ago, but I never received a confirmation e-mail - should I have received word from them that I'm on the waiting list?

Quote: That's exactly what I was thinking as I listen with a stupid smile on my face to the Earth module (MAN, does this little FUN amp/dac sound GREAT).  I'll probably get the Moon and Sun modules for kicks.

Quote: I've never used them, so I can't comment whether they are bit-for-bit hi-rez clones.  However, I'd say these releases are *borderline* legal, as most (almost all, actually) of the titles they offer are long out of print on SACD and DVD-A and SACD-lab is the *only* way to get them...

It would seem that I may end up with all three.  I'm set to get some 800's and have pre-ordered LCD-2's.  Now if someone wants to gift me a pair of T1's, that would be super.   Quote:

Many thanks for your input, PascalT.  It appears that most people are of the opinion that the 800's are great for acoustic music/classical and have a significantly different signature than the 650's.  I think I'll get a pair of 800's and do some serious listening with them.  (Fingers crossed...

I'm glad I came across this thread.  I'm currently running HD-650's and a number of IEMs.  I actually really like the upper-frequency presentation of the 650s (not too dull or recessed to my ears), but I'm looking to complement them by going the next step up in quality.  I'm on the pre-order...

Thanks, guys, for all your input. I ordered a FUN version A (WM8741 and OPA-Earth, SPDIF upgraded to WM8805).  It'll handle my multiple requirements (analogue ins for SACD; SPDIF+USB for CD, 24/96 downloads, etc.) for the time being.    I ended up getting the HD-650s at the Audio Lab in...

Hi everyone,   Noob in the forum, first post - be gentle!  I am buying my first DAC+headphone amp and would really like to get a NFB-12.  Problem is the NFB-12 doesn't have analogue inputs to listen to SACD in 2.0.   Or should I not worry about that and just listen to the CD layer using the...
