Hello Head-fi   On this rainy Saturday October First, in the 2011'th year of the common era we did convene upon Larry's house and did listen to several fine headphones. Some more fine that others, but none that suck. This is to say that the worst headphone we heard on this day "certainly did...

Your post is too short

This thread is a continuation of the discussion that started in the post pics of your builds thread around this date.                 Quote:   I dont think the huddler software makes it easy to move posts or split threads. Its really designed for SEO before...

HiFiMAN HE-5, HiFiMAN HE-6, and Audeez LCD-2 – three headphones that have taken the headphone world by storm. Thanks to a happy coincidence I have a bit of time with all 3 in my home rig. I was lucky enough to win the HE-6 prototypes in the NYC meet auction. The Audeez LCD-2 and HE-5 are on loan...

There is no "no" option for was this review helpful.   While Im at it, A "thumbs down" button next to the "thumbs up" button for general posts would be nice.

Hello Head-fi    A little while ago I bought a busted SEX amp off of the FS forums. It had been up there for a while, I have wanted to hear this amp for a while now (nobody has SEX in the greater NYC area it seems), and the price was right so I said why not.   I payed for sex, and it...

We almost had a meet at larry's today, but it was canceled for a family emergency. I didnt know that and showed up anyways, Thanks to larry for hanging behind and letting me sit for a few min   I listened to a audiocats modified STAX Transformer box, a DIY Lundahl transformer (also made by...

Hello Head-fi A long time ago I designed and built an amp. Its an OTL differential amp. I recently got an oscilloscope and have been measuring everything I can get my hands on, but the waveforms from this amp intrigue me. If anyone could help to tell me what they mean I would be very...

Quote: Good morning. Having read many members posts with a certain headphone trying to match it up with the best amp, and I have a dilemma. I have the Senn650, AKG701, BeyerDT990@600, and saw your amp selection. This Easter I plan on getting a new amp and was wondering from what you have...

Hello Head-Fi I built a little passive pre with a splitter for Doug and to commemorate the occasion of its completion we had a little Mini Meet rather than shipping it. The meet was great, and I was quite impressed by the Stax Omegas, which I had only ever heard briefly at full size meets...

Hello Head-fi Im working on a DIY project and would appreciate it if you could help me with some quick measurements. I would like to put together a table of the HEIGHT of various Grado and Alessandro headphones. It is important that all headphones are stock! If they have been...

Please help me pick the color for the chassis of a tube amplifier I am working on. choices are listed above AND you may pick any color YOU want. Multiples are allowed, but please DONT pick everything because my amp isnt proud enough to wear a rainbow, not that there's anything wrong with that.

So I have LED grid biased the bottom triode in a WCF, and its pretty sweet but requires a dedicated bias supply. I have a different amp with LED cathode bias for A WCF, but I want to convert it. has anyone tried with a AA cell? what did you think?

So my post on this got deleted in the FS threads. kind of fitting as it is discussion. I quite wanted these headphones fs on headfi but sadly got outbid. suxors, but thats the way of headfi. I guess it dosnt matter that I wanted to listen to them and enjoy them, not simply turn a...

Hello Head-FI A mini-review of sorts was requested of a few headphones I own. For this I will be using an Estsound E5 as source (with nominal upgrades) and BOTH a Melos-SHA-gold Maestrobator (A real Carlo maestrobator... biggest and baddest of the bunch) and “the silver ghost” my DIY OTL...

Hello Boards I have been on quite the CCS trip recently. Spiffy little circuits. Is there are way to estimate the MINIMUM current that a given transistor will work with in a simple 1 transistor CCS? I would like to build something to regulate 0.15mA, and am concerned that there may be...

hello head-fi I just finished building my balanced amp. It uses a long-tail-pair with a CCS tail, and plate resistors now. I want to switch to CCS's on the plate, but am faced with the problem of "locking" the plate voltage, as it is direct coupled to the next stage and a precise voltage...

hello headfi do these look fishy to anyone else? ebay auction The drivers look more like "SR" series drivers than the drivers in my HP-2 The "front" of the actual driver has white cloth, HP-1000 drivers have black cloth The actual driver has a smooth surface, rather than the...

ultra-mini-meet at dave's Tonight we had a minimeet at Dave's place. It was good even there was no turntable turning. I will post more when I wake up.

hello Headfi. I have a small project at work, and wanted to run this by someone who speaks & reads Korean well. Please tell me if this says what google translator thinks it does, and if its translated appropriately. 아시아 맞는 선글라스 should read: Asian fit sunglasses I can only think of...
