Guess everyone is selling today, selling my HD800's CDPlayer selling his 4070. Be matter of time someone starts selling there kidneys LOL.

One has to retain a certain harmonic balance between buying and selling.  I've reached the point of not knowing where to put all my amps so something has to go...

haha true. If you ever want to sell a spare 404 driver, let me know

Is it normal that i hear a semi loud buzz when I touch the input RCA's of my  T1?

Depends on how your system is grounded. In the past, when my system wasn't grounded at all, I remember hearing the buzz when touching the case of my amp. Now I have my system grounded at one point only, via the binding post on the back of my 717. There's no buzz anymore.

Now..if only someone would sell me a KGSSHV
 
It's still new in my system as I've had them less than a week but I really like the SR007 with the SRM-323S. It really is quite amazing considering my Stax rig cost the same as my HD800 and I haven't touched my HD800 since.

My system isn't grounded. If I don't have any problems with it, should I then do anything about it? I mean, it shouldn't be directly harmful, except it always is a good idea to have your gear grounded, I guess..

Kinda feel the same way about my lambda signature and my HE-500 rig. 650$ vs. 1000$. Not that you can compare that way. But expectation bias, new gear syndrome, you know..

The reason I grounded my system was because of the buzz. Additionally, when a system is not grounded, you can often feel a bit of electricity when you touch a case. It feels a bit as if it's vibrating a little when you swipe your finger across the case. That will be gone too when you ground it. If none of that is bothering you, then you should be ok without grounding. Your house is probably fitted with a residual-current device, which covers the safety part for the most part already.

Your ahead of me by a few miles it seems.  I'm working on my amp first (KGSSHV), then the Stax.  On the way I may pick up a KOSS ESP-950 until I can fund the 009s..

Do a down payment with PriceJapan and get those 009's on order!  You can pay for them later.  The price has snuck up past $3500 again!

Down payment?  I can do that?  Layaway

 

[shipsupt]

You can. I'm not sure how much, but its not a lot. You pay the balance when they are ready to ship, the beauty is that you locked in your price while the yen is in favor.

Just emailed them - this would be right on time.  
 
Thanks for that tip..

Who's building your KGSSHV? I'd like to pick one up but they almost never go in the FS. It's harder to find than a unicorn it seems. The SR007 isn't all that expensive so wasn't too hard after I sold off some gear. I like to think of it as getting the SR007 for free since I sort of didn't pay anything.
 
I probably won't get the SR009 unless I lose the HD800 and I don't see that happening anytime soon.
