im in trouble.
i started crunching numbers.
and over analyzing things.
gotta trim the fat i feel like.
and the WA2 along with 3 pairs of 5998s are the fattest of the fat taht i got.
 
=(
 
talk me out of it!
 
i mean my 90$ refurb 770 pros out of my pioneer 950 sounds plenty good unless im side by siding with my wa2 and hd 650s.
 
and that way i would sell off the 950, the yamaha a s500 and my 990s.
then just pick up 1 pioneer sx 1250, 1 marantz 2245 and a pair of wharfedale diamond 10.2's
the woo + pioneer would cover almost all of that.
 
i feel sick

Did anyone tells you never add up all the head-fi related expense?  I learned it the hard way...

Are you just feeling guilty, or do you actually need money for food and housing and stuff?

lol
i don't need the money.
in fact i even have a nice tax return coming.
but as a hs teacher i really shouldn't be spending multiple G's on...  HEADPHONES?

 

[hodgjy]

Well, you can't take your $$$$ with you to the grave, so buy the toys you want and love the hell out of them.

Dude Thriller, Beat It, and Billie Jean. Its hard to beat those three tracks back to back to back.

[Rawrbington]

I'M LISTENING TO MY FIRST SONG ON MY NEW WOO, WOOOOOO!
 
Quite a difference going from an A700 with fiio e11 to WA6 and DT880 600
 
Songs that I'm playing since I have been thinking about it all day.
 
1. Dire Straits- Money for Nothing
2. Beatles - While My Guitar Gently Weeps
3. Michael Jackson- Billy Jean
4. Jacqueline Du Pre- Elgar Cello Concerto in E Minor Op 85
5. Metallica- Wherever I May Roam
 
I bought some good bourbon and I'll be laying back all evening listening to music. What else do y'all think I should listen to?

An excellent variety of music to christen your new amp.  I'd have to agree with the Dire Straits as #1, and with the other comments about the rest of the Brothers In Arms album, as well as all of their other 5.  Mark Knopfler's 6 solo albums are real treats, too.  
 
Since you mentioned Jacqueline Du Pre, you might like her recording of the Frederick Delius cello concerto, as well.  I have a vinyl rip from an old Nonesuch LP, but it is available as part of other collections as well.
 
And, since I am also a fan of moving between wildly different genres in the same evening, I started out with Steve Earle's 'Copperhead Road' album, and am now continuing with Percy Grainger's 'Lincolnshire Posy' (the Dallas Wind Symphony recording downloaded from HDTracks).   Both sound great on my WA2; I used D7000s for Earle, and now have the Grainger playing through the HD800s.
 
(And a dram of Ardbeg 17 yr. old rather than the bourbon.)

I teach in the inner city ghetto, if they have genuine Dre's they were part of drug deals lol. They mostly have super crappy IEMS or decorative portable headphones from sony, jvc or skullcandy. I have one kid that is super intelligent and listens to classic rock, jazz, and classical. Don't ask me how, he lives in foster home and his dad is in jail and his mom is on crack (not being funny, seriously) I let him listen to my A700s and fiio e11. I'm thinking about giving them to him and my ipod at the end of the year since he has straight A's.

Ahzari, I got your back... and the Mighty 596! If you'd like, I'll send it out for an audition. A PM to come later today! 

Oh that would be awesome! Looking forward to your PM

Smart man, last time I can barely walk back to IC. 

  Well, not that bad but I did missed the vendor dinner.

Me? Don't have a problem with an inability to function. Rather, protecting myself legally. Even rounding the numbers some, the U.S. is probably home to 70% of the World's lawyers. And two states combined within the U.S. have 70% of the country's lawyers. We'll be in one of those states!
