    HeadAmp Pico Power: Pre-Order Thread

    Got back from my road trip to a nice little surprise at the door from Justin.   I just wanted to give you a thumbs up on great packaging job. Due to the frequent rain over the week I was gone some of the packages that were left at my doorstep had gotten soaked. The Pico Power from HeadAmp...

    Your 5 newest CDs (or LPs)

    Quote:   If they still have it I would say go for it. My good friend and former roommate of mine set out for the stores a bit late (around noon) and ended up missing out on a number of titles, one title being The Dave Brubeck Trio album.

    Quote: True, I suppose it could workout for some of them on certain albums. Was just sharing my train of thought as I was reading how some people didn't get everything they wanted.   Most seem to start off high in price on ebay as the early-bird flippers hope to snag someone. As the...

    Your 5 newest CDs (or LPs)

      I am more disappointed that I find a large portion of the people that went out early to pickup some of these "harder finds" merely did so to attempt to flip them on eBay.   This behavior detracts from the whole experience of RSD, especially for the people who go out to pickup these...

    Some places were all over the place on their pricing.   I came across the White Stripes album in this one record store w/ a $100 price tag. In another store altogether there were a couple albums I saw were different price tags ($29.99 and $39.99) for the same album.

    Nice haul from RSD today. Made a trip of it and went to most record stores in Manhattan. Quite the fun and tiring day.   Blind Melon - Blind Melon White Stripes - Elephant Cream - Royal Albert Hall London May 2-3-5-6 2005 The Dave Brubeck Trio - Distinctive Rhythm Instrumentals The...

    Your 5 newest CDs (or LPs)

    My dilemma that I am mulling over right now is my plan of action to hopefully secure some of the rarer/more-sought-after albums. Whether I should just go straight into Manhattan to try my luck at the multitude of participating stores in a relatively tight area (with tons of people) or just hit...

    Quote: I'm definitely with you on both the Blind Melon and White Stripes albums as "must buys." Also hoping I manage to find the Rolling Stones' 5x5 EP, but I am not holding my breath.   Topping my list are the two collaborations by The Black Keys & the Stooges (7") and Grouplove...

    It is certainly tough shaving down a want-list down to the "essentials." In the process of trying to lessen the potential financial blow i'll take tomorrow by whittling my list down before I get there.

    The HeadAmp GS-X and GS-X MK2 Thread

    Quite the read! Good job, Justin. And congrats to Todd for receiving all his audio gear back. That guy had a lot of gall to steal such expensive audio equipment and then quite a bit more to attempt to continue his ways. It goes to show that being an audiophile/head-fier means you are part of a...

    Fun read. I still await the day my luck leads me into a similar situation. Though it would probably be more likely if I pursued craigslist ads more frequently.

    HeadAmp Pico Power: Pre-Order Thread

    I am in the same boat as you, but I did not expect a shipping notice so early as I placed my order well into the new year. As it stands now I am spending all of my listening time with the new GS-X mk2 that arrived on Wednesday, so it is hard to be impatient.

    I called Dakmart about them a few months ago and they simply said they were no longer in stock. Just a matter of not updating their site.

    HeadAmp Pico Power: Pre-Order Thread

    I'm not sure you would need the extra power of the Pico Power for an IEM like the Westone 4Rs. If I were in your shoes I would go with the Pico Slim without much second thought.

    [Mod Edit: Contents of blanked post removed.] I was under the impression we are not allowed to link group-buy links on head-fi. Though thanks for the info. I think if someone is going to go for a knock-off omega headphone stand they should go for the cheaper ones that can usually be found w/...
