You don't have HE60's? At least you have your health.

That's true...but from all I did in the '70's...I feel as if I have some sort of channel imbalance

I only get channel 69 once in a while.

You have bigger problems than no HE60.

Actually the repair woman was looking over my shoulder as I was writing it, and she said she will call in a service ticket tomorrow and I should get that channel back sometime in the next 24 hours.

Better than 1-800 Mattress, no?

Now your talking. Back on topic, how about that ES-1.

This thread really deteriorated quickly. I think it all started when the Icelanders were mentioned.

The New York Rangers were put together by the lengendary Conn Smythe who then left to for the Toronto Maple leafs.

In the New York Rangers incarnation they do not have more cups then the Isles.

Before that New york had a team known as the New York Americans.

Until their cup win 1994 led by Mark Messier and co. They did not win a cup for over 40 years. The drought was known as the curse of 1947(?). When a headcoach or player IIRC was traded or sacked and he claimed that the Rangers would never win a cup.

In the 1994 the mvp in the playoffs was Brian Leetch, who was also the highest scoring defenseman in the regular season and also the last defensive player to breake the 100 point mark.

My highlight of the Rangers fruitless march to the promised lands was when Bryan Trottier was head coach....

New York Isles won 4 consecutive cups in 1980,81,82,83. The 4 mvp's in those playoffs were Trottier (19), Goring(91), Bossy(22) and Smith(31) I think.

So how does the Es-1 differ to the hev90? Is it a tonality thing or more a case of transparency and absolute detail retrieval.

Also I was wondering how does the hev90 match up to the Es-1 pace wise?

Erik,

Is it true that you might go with some electrostats? Whatever you decide, stay away from Stax Lamda Pros!
You really need to spend more money than they go for. The logic being the more you pay...the better it sounds.

That is just a lie perpetrated by the Platinum Triangle and the Military-Entertainment Complex. I would never buy a set of electrostatic headphones as it goes against my ideology.
