the mono box set released last year is considered by many the best currently available set of the fab four's work. unfortunately this has bred many bogus sets. to be sure you're getting the real deal it makes sense to deal with reputable retailers. since this set, iirc, is limited the prices...

i called JH Audio earlier and they mentioned that they were going to be having a black friday sale, which will be announced later on today on their Facebook page. Brittany didn't mention any specifics, but said those will be in the announcement. so if you've been itching to get some of these...

New York Area Head-Fi Meet Impressions (November 14, 2009) Photo by Towert7 i'm surprised that there's not a thread going already so i guess i'll have to start one. first of all thanks to Erikzen for organizing this get together. thanks also to the vendors for showing and for their...

there's a huge buzz about custom iems these days. with such a high level of interest it's inevitable that folks need to know where to go to get their ear impressions made. given that, i'm starting a thread for people to list recommendations of audiologists that they've worked with or may know of...

i thought i might actually get there in october, but i was out of town for part of the time, and when that came and went, i figured maybe i'd reach supremus in november - well we all know what happened in november. what with work, my current chaotic house, and life's business in general i'm...

here's a toast to a fine member of our community. have a very happy birthday Dave (gotta love the name ) !

happy birthday to one of the stellar head-fiers! Tom, you bring a lot to this community (and a lot of cool gear to a lot of cool meets!) - i tip my hat and i raise my glass to you my friend.

first of all, welcome back head-fiers. it's been an extended break (good for getting other things done!) and i'm sure many birthdays have been missed over the last couple of weeks, so happy belated to y'all that were out partying while h-fi was off-line. the front page shows 72(!) folks (only...

hi, i've been away from the web and head-fi (and -phile) for a couple of weeks. taking a vacation from this obsession is a healthy thing ! but now i'm back and getting drawn back in . one of the first things i wanted to do was go over to larry's site and drool over his creations. unfortunately...

keep watching for reports. this is gonna be good!

if anyone has considered the ultimate ears metro-fi 2s, which are a rather nice canal phone, today is the day to buy them. buy.com has them for $50 shipped! they normally sell them for $80 (not sure if that includes shipping). if you can find them on the fs forum this would be a decent price...

i've heard it said that the Stax SRM-001 driver unit must have the batteries taken out when using an ac adaptor with it. is that true and if so why? what would happen if the batteries were left in while the unit was plugged in to the wall?

for those of you who've been waiting, patiently or impatiently, for this high end portable amp by larocco, larry went and bought a cnc machine so he could finally get the unit built. it's installed, and up and running. hopefully that means the amp will actually be produced in the near future...

here ya go fellows. have at it! http://www.meter.com/mothra/powcord.html

some perennial favorite amps, particularly for grados, around these parts seem to be the mapletree ear and the melos sha-1 gold, with grados own ra-1 as a reliable alternative choice. i'd like to hear more about the specific qualities of these different products as well as thoughts about how...

so i fell asleep in front of the tv after the 11 o'clock news and was drifting in and out of consciousness periodically. nightline was on and i woke up to find a segment featuring none other than our own Borat! he was in washington, i believe, and was doing some political schtick re kazakhstan...

my cars have half decent oem stereos, but since joining head-fi and spending more time listening to decent cans my listening time while commuting has become less pleasurable. so now i'm going to have to save up to buy a lexus just to get the mark levinson stereo! curse you, head-fi (and sorry...

i've been seeing this Pengamp popping up on eBay lately and wondering how this thing compares with other amps out there. it looks, in packaging at least, like some of the cMoy amps but he states in his faq, fwiw: Q: Is it a cMoy amplifier? A: No, it is not the common cMoy circuit. does this...
