That point is unevitable

. Have you already sold them??

Sorry, dude. Not this time!

That thing is expensive!! Maybe if someone bought my RS-1 and SLAM...

BTW, are those the new Shure Olive foamies?

Yeah, it's part of my "Annoy Chimpie" campaign.

Yeah. I miss the feel of air pushing against my eardrums as when using the flanges, but they're just so comfortable. And way better than the Comply tips.

Anyone want to try the Squeezebox? I don't have a laptop, so I'm afraid someone will have to install SlimServer and bring their laptop and FLAC files if they want to try it...

Updating the list then. A Rega Jupiter would be a great addition!

Awesome! Added you to the list.

I hope to have built a pair of these beauties by the time the meet takes place:

That, dear Rik, looks real slick!! Good luck building it!

They're sexy aren't they? Not quite Head-Fi, but they'll do.

Very much hotties indeed

How do they sound? Well, I know you haven't build them yet but you probably have some idea of what you are aiming at I suppose...

 

[Sir Nobax]

I bet they are going to sound like this, but about ten times as powerfull.

That'll give a decent insight into their sound. I hope I have the drivers on time, as there is no distributor here in Holland those in Germany are insanely expensive (above €200 per driver).

Ha! I wish.

Hey digitalmind,

Add me up to the list:

Stuff i take with me:

My vintage DT-550

Zen: Aurvana's
HQ-1700
Zen: Vision

So nothing different i take with me compared to Contrastique's meet, except i dont take the EP-630's with me.
Probably i will give the EP-630's away or something, as i dont use them anymore, and they really arent anything special for a head-fi meet.



Contrastique if you'll come too, shall we do some blind test between our sources, would be great fun.
So we can compare Procreate's Imod, your 4th G iPod, Chimpie's 5G iPod and my Creative:Zen. (

wow, lots of apple products)

Would be awesome, if someone could upload some HQ Lossless songs we all appriciate and know (at least some of them), then this would be a good and Objective sound quality test between the sources.

Will do!

I'd love a source comparison, especially with a high end cd player thrown in for fun. Mine can level-match volume, so that'd be a cool thing to do, and see what difference a "high end" source really makes in a blind ab setup. Switching can be done with a preamp.



I wonder.... how will an open balanced DT770 sound?
It's going to dieeeeeee!
