    HE-500 Loaner Program

    Quote: If I tracked the posts correctly, DMV915 sent the central US pair to mobayrasta and says it was delivered on the 25th (post #131 back on 5/28/11).   According to mobayrasta's profile he has not been online since 5/23/11.    What to do ??

    Quote: Ishcabible,   I somehow got skipped as well on the central pair, even after I posted that they should not go to the east since the official Central list was not completed.  Could you please send them my way if you happen to get them.

    Quote: dmv915, this set has not yet made it around the central loop yet.  Neither Ishcabible or myself had a chance to get them.  Happy Camper sent them to you because Ishcabible was having some gear issue at the time.  You should check with him to see if he is ready for them.  If not...

    HE-500 Loaner Program

    I think that is me listed third on the central US list.  If so, thanks for including me but there is a name misspelling.  It should be Gorthon, not Gortham.   Will we be contacting the person under us to get there shipping information when its time?  I can't seem to find the information...

    Quote: You could also end up with the Right and Left channels "Out Of Phase" with each other by swapping the Hot and Cold wire of one of the channels.  The headphones will work, but the sound will be off.

    I am pretty sure that HiFlight has listed out the different op amps he has tried and described how they sound somewhere within this thread.

    Quote: I can't comment on how the PB2 sounds, as I have never heard it, but I find that the HD600 in my balanced setup (DB1 --> SR71b) has great bass impact and control.  I would have to go along with what Jamato has said.

    RSA SR71b, quad mono balanced. img. 1 & 17 Review pg 32, 34, 68, UPDATED 4/2013 for Improved sound.

    There is probably enough power left to light the LED, but not enough power to drive the output.

    Backed out on a "For Sale"

    What would you do?   A fellow head-fi member committed to purchase an item from me, via PM's, on Friday with a message that PayPal payment would be sent on Monday.  Monday came and went with no word or payment.  On Tuesday I sent a message to find out what was going on.  A PM was replied to...

    Microsoft Security Essentials   I have been using this now for a long time.  Its Free and uses very few resources.  I very rarley notice it even running scans.  I has caught a few things over the years and I have never had any trouble with it.

    The RSA Protector and SR-71B use the same connectors (Kobiconn part # 163-191J-E) .  You would be looking for something like this adapter  (Whiplash cable).  There are many custom cable makers and DIY people here are Head-Fi that should be able to help you out.  Shoot them a message.    I...

    Which DAC for RSA Protector?

    I have found that the iBasso D10 or D12 works well with it as well.  No special connectors needed.  just a standard 1/8" (3.5mm) mini to mini interconnect.

      Quote: HA-HA funny funny.  Let me rephrase that then.  What benefit would there be,especially since he is uning JH13's?  The SR71B already takes a single ended input and uses a phase splitter to create the balanced output just like the protector.

    Quote: My two sysconcept cables do seem to be a tighter fit and I don't get the "click" sound/feedback.  Taking them out is rather hard as well.    My other optical cable fits nice and does "click" as expected and comes out nicely.

    I to like the feel/security of the Hirose connector, but I do wish there was a 90 degree option like the protector male connector.  That extra length makes it hard to fit into a mall case.  On the same token, I do with there was a stright male option for the protector adapter.

    Using the boomslang DAC with the Heartbeat track (FLAC) off the Open Your Ears album from HDTracks/Headfi I am able to easily hear the 50,40,30, and 20 herts signals with my balanced RS1's.
