I would love to visit Iceland some day. I travel extensively, but have never made it there.
The flooding was a drag.
Mye stands helped the 3.6R's quite a bit. Obviously all mods on the Maggies will have to commence on my next trip.
My only real disapointment was not having the time to get my Aristeaus converted. If I do find some reasonably priced HE 90's or Omega I's, I will just have to run them through the SRM-727, which ain't Stax's best effort for amps. It sounds shrill on the high end and does not drive the 4070's properly. The harshness on the highs is really present on the HE 60's, but I have learned to live with it. I am hoping the Ultrasones will be fun to listen to. The HD 650's and HE 60's are so different that I can't listen to them both during the same listening session. I really suspect that the 4070's may be a jewel when driven properly.
I am traveling soon, and look forward to getting back on the forum a little more.

I really should move all my most valuable things to a more secure location... The Mye stands will be a good start. Planars need something sturdy to push against or we might all just buy dynamics... |
