Hey guys, It's been a while since I've seen the friendly faces of the GTA crowd and I'm starting to miss the crew. I've also got some new goodies to show off and would love to hear what's new with your systems. Maybe it's time to organize a meet this summer! An update from me is that I'm now...

Hey guys! I've been around for a long time and think I'll reach this benchmark! Can't wait and just wanted to show off a little bit as I haven't been as active recently. Where is an old timer like me needed to bring some perspective and experience? Cheers!

Hey guys,   Our good friend charliex has asked me to help fix his SAC KH1000 amplifier. I've opened it up and looked around but can't seem to see any obvious issues. None of the resistors or diodes look burned up, none of the transistors get warm and the only sign of problem is that the "ON"...

I've been away for a while but this has anyways been my favorite spot to see people building cool stuff. What happened? It's like this community has died off and that's terrible! Here's what I'm doing now, comment, advise, and enjoy. What are you guys doing these days?

Hi guys,   I'm debugging a Beta22 and Sigma22 and could use a little extra info.   The Sigma22 had the output shorted and now instead of +/- 30V, it's outputting around +/- 5V. I started looking at http://www.amb.org/audio/sigma22/sigma22_200_voltages_30v.pdf - Voltages expected, and I'm...

Hey guys,   I've recently discovered this DAC and it looks just too cool not to build. http://soekris.com/products/audio-products/dam1021.html   Thoughts?   Has anyone built one?   I think I'll be building one soon and wanted to document the progress as well as get ideas from others.

Hey guys,   I'm hosting my next Head-Fi on Saturday May 28th at Noon to 6pm at the Party Room of 509 Beecroft Rd.     MUSIC VIDEO: How easily do you relate to the main character? It should be easy!     -----------------------           CURRENT Head-Fi LIST monoglycer psgarcha92...

Nevermind

Self explanatory.   I just heard this on a pair of custom headphones I built a few weeks ago purely for rock and I just can't even.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBmIptM7JvA   That is all.   Post the songs that you just can't even handle because they knocked you back in your chair.

Hey guys, This was fun, lots of familiar faces and a few new ones. Nice equipment and I especially enjoyed the HE1000. Post photos please!

Hey guys, I'm planning a custom Grado project and am looking for drivers. Any ideas on where to buy them? I ave Grado a call but they don't sell drivers and the custom drivers that were around a couple of years ago seem to be discontinued. Any ideas would help. Also if someone has any 225/325...

Hi guys,   I'm building a tube amp enclosed in a chassis with the transformer on the bottom plate. The transformer is a Hammond 270DAX (http://www.hammondmfg.com/pdf/5c0026-27.pdf) that has wires coming out of the bottom, on the same level as the mounting wings.   I would like to bold the...

Hi guys, I'm thinking of another Head-Fi meet soon as Max's last meet was fun but I only got to hang out for a couple of hours. How about getting together again on Saturday, January 30th   This meet will take place in the party room of my condo at Yonge and Finch from 12pm - 6pm. The...

I'll just start with the fact that I had an awesome time! As one would expect from a Head-Fi meet, especially one hosted by another scotch-loving Russian. :)   As always, it's great to see the familiar faces of CharlieX, Zida, Monoglycer and others. Of course it's nice to see new faces like...

Hi guys, I'm thinking of another Head-Fi meet soon. :) The usual crowd knows the deal. General guidelines : Be sensible, and don't be an ass. DO NOT wear cologne or hair products (obviously). DO NOT have food or drinks beside the equipment, keep it at the bar. DO NOT take equipment of...

Hey guys, It's been too long and I miss you all! :D Now that we have the lovey-dovey stuff out of the way, let's get down to business. The date will be October 5, from noon to about 6pm. The event will be held at Yonge & Finch, free parking downstairs. Sign in at the security desk and they...

Hey guys,   UPDATE: Unfortunately, I've been too busy to organize this meet, but will try my best to get something together for January.   It's getting cold and what really warms our hearts is great company, good music, and some high heat output systems! I think it's been some time since the...

Hey guys,   This thread is created for discussion of the next Toronto area Head-Fi meet. As always, it's a pleasure to see the regulars and some of the new comers to the Head-Fi community in Toronto and southern Ontario area.   Lets see what we can put together, open discussion welcome...

Hey guys,   I think it's been some time since the last meet and I'm definitely in the mood to experience the next one. This one is scheduled on Sunday August 12th, NOON - 6PM.   The venue is the same as a few times before. There is free visitor parking on the first level of the garage...

Hey guys,   I've owned most of the great headphones in the world and keep a very small collection of my personal favorites - Grado HP2 (rock), Sennheiser HD650 (classical and vocals), BeyerDynamic DT770/Pro80 (bass-head). I have an acquaintance who is a DJ and generally spins trance, dance...

Hey guys,   With consent from BMWWW, I'm taking over hosting of this meet. The date is set for Sunday, April 8th between noon and 6pm at the party room.   The preliminary thread is located here.   There is free visitor parking on the first level of the garage (space is rather limited...

Hey guys,   Thank you all for coming, it was great seeing some familiar faces while meeting new members!  Great gear, great people, great time!   Will post headphone impressions later today.   Totally looking forward to photos!  

Hey guys,   Just wanted to say that when you have custom panels made, use FPE, nobody has that level of customer service!   I've ordered a lot of panels from them over the years and every single time they're perfect... even when I make a mistake!  I've placed an order with them last...
