@UntilThen The Navy seal is just a coaster nad to move the coffee mug do I vould get the pic forgot the coaster. Howie you will be very impressed with the 800 for classical, very revealing. Ah piano, my favorite instrument, I tried it when I was younger, but could not find a piano that had extra wide keyes, kept hitting more than one key per finger!

 
I never could find a piano that had a place I could find to stick those paper rolls in and make it do the work

Listening to EL3N and Tung Sol 7236 and enjoying a hypnos1 moment - suddenly my system seems to sound tangibly better. Maybe the 7236 tubes have suddenly improved.
 
I am playing authentic American New Orleans Jazz in glorious mono - Bunk Johnson's Band from 1945 with great New Orleans drumming by Baby Dodds.
 
I know, nobody listens to this kind of music, but I like it...

I bought Led Zeppelin The Presence album. Achilles Last Stand. Where's Supersonic?

Hi Oskari,
 
Your link does not work, and I can't seem to get my link above to work as well. Trying again:

This seems to work - love the way the drummer plays the rims during the clarinet solos.

I bought Laura Branigan and Barbara Streisand for $1 each. I think I did well.

Hi Oskari et al,
 
Here is a great 1929 electric recording called Market Street Stomp by the Missourians. (In 1930 Louis Armstrong took over this band).
 
This is a ferocious recording. The enclosed version uses it as a backdrop to a silent "slap stick(?)" movie. So much is going on in this movie that it is hard to concentrate on the music, but the movie is guaranteed to bring out a smile and the recognition of what was entertainment some 85 years ago.

Next is a modern faithful rendition of Market Street Stomp by Vince Giordano's Night Hawks so you can get it in greater fidelity.
 

 
Good test for kick drum...

Howie seeing how much you love classical, HD800 should be high on your Christmas gift list. You won't need the Christmas tree setup then. Guaranteed. 

 
I was thinking about that yesterday, funnily enough. I've been a bit put off the 800 in the past because of reports of over bright and peaky treble.
 
On the other hand the S version might be too attenuated in the treble. I do like clear, extended treble, and when I tell you I like AKG's, in general, you will know what I mean. I don't want fatigue or screeching, mind you, but I can't imagine Elise ever screeching, somehow.

re: Hum. I've done some rearranging, Elise is now on the opposite side of my (small) study to all the other elecrtonics and I've run a power cord from the next room so she isn't sharing a power board.
There is still some noise @ high volumes, but considerably less than there was.
Fingers crossed she will be silent with some new tubes, when I get around to that.

 
Hi S67.
 
Glad to hear you're getting a handle on the hum...it certainly appears more and more that in most cases it is indeed due to factors in one's own particular environment alas. FA themselves would not ship a unit that suffers from it - in their environment at least LOL!!

...And this must surely be a tube thing much more than SS...again, alas!

. But perseverance usually gets us there in the end...to an acceptable level at least!

. Hope you remove even more of yours eventually...

  The price of Beyerdynamic T1s briefly dropped below £500 on Amazon UK so I'm finally going to be joining the club. Just have to wait for the delivery. Why did I let my Prime membership lapse...

 
At long last, T...WELCOME TO THE T1 CLUB - WELL DONE!!!

...CHEERS!...
