Which would you consider a better amp for RS1’s and SR225’s? The MkIII or the MkIV SE?

A quick shot of some I had lying near…

Another new watch...

New arrival…

Some of you guys with larger collections. How do you store all of your watches (non-winder type storage)? I'm looking for some ideas.

Head-Fi on my phone would be great!

These are two of my favorites... I think I'm going to buy this one since I can't afford the other two...

Trying to figure out my new camera...

I was going to get mine from New Graham. Great price there.

Thaddy what model chive did you get? I can't decide between the boron black or the TiNi chive. Does all the chive models have the pocket clip on them? I agree with Old Pa. The Victorinox’s are built to last a lifetime+, and holds an excellent edge.

I test tires for a living. Stay away from BFG. I run Eagle F1 GS-D3 on my 97 z28 6 speed with some mods. Excellent wet and dry traction with excellent wear and is quiet. Don't even think of running these tires in the snow, zero traction. For a winter tire look at Ultra Grip Ice, best winter tire...

Candyasses That's a walk in the park. We're suppose to get 6-12" Saturday.

From Trent himself Here. Good news is that the new CD will be finished by the end of '04. Bad news is we have to wait till 3/05. Edit to 3/05

Someone's fired...

You could try www.live365.com, but have a pop-up blocker. Their's a lot to pick from. Some of the stations use Mp3Pro that sounds really good.

A damn shame. Maybe this is a marketing ploy?

I thought it would be nice to have a section devoted to reviews of just tubes. What does everyone else think?

Thanks for the review. I would like to start a review tread with pics if I ever get a digital camera and more tubes. How's doing business with TubeWorld? Is that cryo Sylvania from TubeWorld? I might have some Telefunken ECC83 coming.

I would love to see a review of a MAD Ear+ Purist HD vs. Singlepower amps.

Tubes I've tested in my Ear+ Purist, all 5751's.. Tung-Sol - Big boomy sloppy bass, terrible highs(possibly a bad tube?) GE JAN - decent tube, good sound Seimens WA - great sound, need some more time with it Sylvania GB - excellent tight powerful bass, nice wide soundstage, one of my...

If you want to go tubes consider MAD Ear+ Purist/HD.

I would be in for some 12 gauge action, 2 with ferrites and 2 without if possible.

Well after testing, things were closer then I originally thought. The cable with the ferrites seemed to take alittle longer to break-in. In the end it was almost to close to call. The cable without the ferrites was the one I preferred. The highs were slightly extended, easier to hear details...

I removed both of the ferrite clamps on one of my cables. I first removed the plastic cover by cutting it with a X-acto knife. I then used a punch and hammer to remove one of the ferrite clamps. For the second ferrite clamp, I just gave it a good wack with the hammer. This provided the best...
