  1. If balance is the setup you're going for, instead of Zana Deux, I recommend the Balance Act from Eddie Current. Only slightly more than Zana and on a limited run at the moment.
  2. Michael Jackson died from cardiac arrest at age 50. Sad news...
  3. Audio Note carries Leben, on the 3rd floor near the escalator. They also carry Air Tight, and Audio Space.
  4. I think in jig_sg's case, it should be "Making Love to Nothing at All"
  5. So this is how you've been auditioning headphones and CDs....
  6. Hahaha luckily I didn't get the PortaPro LE then. Calvin beat me by a few minutes.
  7. The chair like old man's rocker chair la....
  8. Lumiele, if you read through the Jaben site, to expedite approval just give Jaben a call. Tell them your user name and then it's done.
  9. Please, don't get the old man started on his sex....oppsss......I mean Stax pep talks.
  10. Yes. if you open up the case, pry out your hard drive, open it up, you'll see it Amazing how small the LPs get now and they change the name from LP to hard disk platter
  11. Uber, I've joked with ical about going digital but I have decided to go digital years ago. I have ripped all my Cds and movies into digital format and streaming them off my NAS (6 terra bytes of it) or Mac/PC. I recently did get a DAC to upgrade my Denon DVD/SACD player rather than getting a new CDP for music only. IMHO, it did make the type of difference I was looking for. I knew what I wanted to change sonically and I went for one that may give me that effect. My Denon DVD player now sounded a little better (I would not say night and day difference), a little warmer (that is what I wanted) and a little more separation and air between notes and slightly better soundstage. Certainly sounded less digital to me now. By no means a big upgrade like getting a new CDP but a DAC does give me more flexibility as I can connect multiple sources to it (CDP, Ipod, PC) and play them through my system. I do have to say the DAC I got wasn't cheap and the amount itself could have been spent on an excellent CDP. As I am quite some ways into digital format, my DAC will likely see more mileage than my CDP ....eventually. However, I am still getting a new CDP though for critical listening. In summary, consider what you're trying to change or upgrade (am sure you do) and determine whether a separate DAC will get you there. Personally, a separate DAC was a good investment.
  12. Jojo, allergic to prawns? iCal and me shared the same stuff So far so good....no problem....errm....you got turn off by all of us is it, saying you wouldn't like it that much. Hahahaha. Nevermind. HF-2 better
  13. I am never there. Haven't you noticed? I prefer my office at Adelphi.
  14. Picture perfect Thanks. I work at UE Square so with the picture, I know exactly where it is.
  15. Where exactly is it? Near the Temple along Muhamad Sultan? Ah Yat Abalone Restaurant there? Or further down near Robertson Quay?
  16. Come on dude Buy first then decide hahahaha this one can easily sell off later. You may make some bucks if you hold on to it for a bit
  17. Parting with you beloved HD650? Gearing up for HD800 eh?
  18. True ma. Have to audition first wat. Until then, I can't say for sure gonna get
  19. Think the look of PS1000 (wood/metal combo) with RS-1 cups. Smaller and lighter than PS1000 according to reviews. Most people are buying it for the following reasons (this is before it debut at the Canjam over the weekend in California): 1) THey are already Grado fans and head-fi members because the HF-2 is supposely Grado sounding all the way. Part of the proceed goes to Head-fi. 2) for USD 450, Grado fans/non-Grado fans can afford to risk it (eventhough it is about 200 more than what the HF-1 sold for). If they don't like it, since it is a limited series, they can still sell it easily. 3) Because it's been marketed and hyped as the 'baby PS1000'. I am waiting for the completion and delivery of my Zana Deux LE , which supposedly makes HD650 shine. I would expect that it may have some good synergy with the HD800. It certainly have the juice to drive the HD800 for sure. That still doesn't mean I'm going to get the HD800
