Man, got busy, forgot about this thread, and look where it is now; people with awesome looking Thunderpants!  Really liking the latest cups, Bigrock.  I noticed from your sig that you've got AD2000s too...how's the sound compare between that the TPs?

 
Thanks faolan!

They actually compliment each other very well. The ad2000 has a nice bright and airy presentation while the Thunderpants has a nice warm and Ultra-realistic presentation. 
 
At the moment, The Thunderpants is stealing 100% of my listening time so I think that might speak for itself.

Hey fellow ortho-heads, im going to do a mogami litz braid cable for my TP's probably next week when the cable gets here. I'll post a comparison and thoughts on its validity of a cable for the TP after

  
 
cheers, M

I made an attempt at capturing the awesomeness of these headphones in a photograph, but it's very difficult, probably impossible.
 

 
I'm sorry to hear you're having second thoughts about the sale Ben, but I'm afraid these aren't leaving me anytime soon.

Wow, that's pretty stunning. What are the little brass "eyelets" used for the port-hole?

Thats a Beautiful cup Momomo!
 
Looks like Redwood Burl?
 
Just don't get those wood chips in your cast because there's no way of getting them out.

x2.  Thats my favorite of all the cups so far Momo.  Beautiful!

redwood burl it is woods wet so its more like a blob of shavings i must say turning green wood is like turning butter so easy till it cracks down the middle.

 

[Bigrock2150]

You beat me to the punch momomo, my next set of cups were going to be out of Redwood burl.

 
I enjoy turning wet wood as well, it cuts fast and is easier on your heath as well. 
 
However I choose to not turn wet wood as I don't have a drying kiln. 
 
Can't wait to see your next cups, what other kind of burls do you have?

That is unbelievably gorgeous Momomo, I am staggered by it's beautiful burliness.
 
Thanks for the link Ujamerstand!

 

[momomo6789]

not so matching set =/
 
 

 

[NapalmK]

Absolutely stunning! I guess I have somewhat of a soft spot for burls. I can't wait until I'm able to turn some olive burl this winter break. I hope it turns out that well.
 
Too bad they don't match. Oh well I guess I could be nice and take them off your hands at no cost......
