Yay! More members! Before you know it the forum will need more sub forums to cater for the general chit-chats & Techy stuff.

Water cooling? Cyclone? What's that about?

Heard it on my friends home set up with a Krell CD transport, Meridian DAC & McCormack Pre/power amplification. Fantastic! Bass is plenty, it just needed a very lengthy burn-in. Detail & seperation is quite good too.

Too rich for my blood unfortunately. If it was new maybe. Try this link for the photos. I don't know how else to fix the links: http://briefcase.yahoo.com/bc/naz7577/lst?...rc=bc%26.view=t Let me know if it still doesn't work. I can email pictures to interested parties directly.

Can't wait to audition it... using someone's HP-1s

I wish I still had it, unfortunately I don't so you're gonna have to use your imagination! You'd probably can catch snippets of it on Star World (Astro Satellite) TV right now.

Thought you're having Dreamslacker building you one now? Where did you get the wallwart from?

You probably would like the AKG K1000 then! Then again I haven't heard the CD3000 yet.

No where else to post this at the moment... I can't find any here with output voltages higher than 12v. I am looking for something capable of 24v 500mA, variable (4.5, 9, 18, 24 voltages) & switchable polarity & multiple jacks. Can anyone help?

Should it be of any interest, scanned the specs of my JMT META. Hoping to have them upgraded in the near future. http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/users/4b966496/bc...ecification.jpg? Ablaze, what will be used to power your amp? I'm assuming wallwart since you have ALOT of output buffers! Any reason for using that particular op-amp? Great specs though, should sound awesome!

That's good, just in case I need one in the future How's your new headphones? Bright enough for yah?

Don't get me started! Remember JLo with David Duchovny on one of the awards show? She was wearing that ehem, green dress... phew, was she hot or what!!!

My portable rig (minus the ) Still waiting for the N91 so my portable gear has grown... as usual not enough sources to go with the headphones.

Is it for a mac or PC? Compared with a PCDP/CDP how does it sound? Or do you need more burn-in time & more listening sessions?

Yep, she makes me go... oohhh...! Everytime! & t he bonus question is, what is that headphone she is using?

Thanks! Decided to put in a different avatar here but it's headphone related!

Ablaze, Is it just me or is it not possible to put in custom avatars at the moment?

With all the Hoo Haa these headphones are getting in the Head-Fi forum right now, I wondered about it's availability & how much it would cost in S'pore. So far my search here has been in vain but I'm not giving up yet! Even if I do find them it might be alittle bit more expensive. Besides these, what other 'juicy' headphones can be had over there besides the Senns, Grados & Beyers?

I meant for 600 more than the RS-1's 1200 you can get an RKV

I guess Head-Fi is like a one stop shop. Early days though once you have more 'Meets' you can get ppl to post messages & pics here. Then it will get off to a flying start. BTW have you put a URL tag on your sig on Head-fi to link to this site? That would really help too.

Is it considered as a source or headphone amp/DAC?

Can I suggest posting some photos of it. I believe I have seen it but it should benefit other ppl who have not. Edit: Since I'm here I might as well post a photo of my JMT built amp. Too lazy to type all the details. See for yourself... http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/users/4b966496/bc...c7ALT.AHzzdglQJ

Wow... for a little more than 600 for an RS-1 you can get an RKV MkII... makes you think really. Well, makes me think since I paid that much for an RS-1!!!
