Quote: Don't say "sorry" man, that's lame. You gave advice and your opinion, you didn't offend anyone and even if you did, it's your opinion, don't apoligize.   I don't know anything about electrical engineering and very little to nothing about audio but what I did notice during these...

Why is anyone still considering this company? The build quality of my re-shell was horrible and they completely ignored my e-mails after that, they pretty much ruined my IEM's.

On my quest to eliminate annoying background noise, I have tried swapping output tubes. Next step is to swap driver tubes, which driver tube would you guys recommend me ? (I use a tung-sol 5998 as output tube).    

Bought a pair of tung sol 5998 tubes. These work together with the standard (the one that came with the kit) "little" tube, right?

I'd post this on the bottlehead forum but I'm still awaiting my approval.   There is a possibility that one of my LEDs (HLMP-6000) is broken, I know bottlehead will ship me new LEDs if I ask for it but shipping x LEDs from America to Europa seems "meh..."    Called my local electronics...

Quote:   Will do :)    

My Bottlehead Crack OTL amplifier should be ready next week, looking for a good source: pc -> ??? -> Crack -> hd650. Any ideas?

The cable connector in the IEM crumbled... out of nowhere...

Received my tf10 re shell last week.   Fit is good, SQ is good. Build quality: lot's of bubbles, not the color I asked for & cable sockets too big, one IEM fell off resulting in a small crack on the inside of the shell.   Will try to write a more detailed review later.

Hi Aaron, Your Bottlehead OTL Headphone amplifier kit is ready to ship. I look forward to sending you your new amplifier and hope you have fun building and listening to your new amp. Kindest Regards, Eileen Schmalle / Bottlehead Corp.   Jeej jeej jeej, let the fun begin =)

Quote:   Hey, listen, didn't mean to offend anyone. All I meant with my first post was: Careful trading watches, it is very easy getting fakes and watches have a HUGE target audience compared to the handful of headphone enthousiasts. I've seen well respected people do stupid things...

Quote: Oh no, I'm so sorry you feel offended, please reconsider me for the program ... or something like that.   Back on topic:   I was so sure my next watch was going to be a schauer kulisse (was not sure which version though):     Now I see Stowa released a Flieger...

It is taking AAAAAAAAGES to get my TF10's re shelled, I'll be totally unimpressed when I get them since I have been using sennheiser HD650's for the past month :(

  Quote: Only wanted to point out that "Aaron" might be a bit naive. Watches are a different ballgame.  

You are either:   - going to get scammed - looking to scam people   Quote:  

Significantly harder on a longboard, I can do it but have been skateboarding all my life :P   Quote:  

The fact that kozee is a bit slower than what is promised on their website is one thing, the way you have to wait longer than a week to get a reply when you send a mail is really bad.  

Quote: Understanding how an ollie works should speed up the learning process. First step is to slam the board's tail to the ground, I think this is where most people learning how to ollie make most mistakes. You have to slam the tail so that your back wheels get off the ground, at...

Skateboarding isn't about what board/wheels/trucks you own/want to buy/should be buying, we have headphones for that. It's about going out there and having fun :)   Summer's coming up, have fun guys :)  

I have a Stowa Antea 365, never leave the house without it. Has survived multiple snowboard trips and skateboard sessions :) Should really find some time to take some pictures, I think it looks better now that you see that the watch has some history (I obviously haven't gone easy on it).

Regularly ride the same train (Brussels => Kortrijk (Belgium)) as some dude wearing DT770's, he carries a rather large bag for his source so I'm guessing there's some sort of portable amp in there. I always take place in the same wagon to try and see what kind of gear is in the bag, lol...
