    I have a pair of Sennheiser's 650 and I don't like them.

    I received the HD6XX yesterday. They sound great to me but the these are only the 3rd pair of headphones I've ever had. Happy to say they work great with my cell here's a clip on what I've read about that.... The HTC 10 uses a stand-alone DAC as well as headphone amp and isn't using the...

    I have a pair of Sennheiser's 650 and I don't like them.

    I just ordered a set of Massdrop hd6xx after reading about them here. I can't wait to try these with my SA-9100 I was reading somewhere that an old re-capped amp will bring them to life. I can't wait to find out!

    New life for old system

    Still going strong! I tried recording Emerson Lake and Palmer 3 album set with audacity. I picked up a used spin-clean and have started playing our old records, what fun! I found this EP, looks cool! I'll play it later. I couldn't make it to the Frankenfest unfortunately but I...

    Interesting, I was going to ask about the possibility of a headphones demo at our event.

    Winter New England FrankenFest Saturday March 10, 2018 Sutton MA

    I really enjoyed listening to the demo of a funky album you were checking out on your equipment! I think that's a big part of the whole essence of events like this. Hearing something obscure on rare equipment, it just doesn't get any better than that! I was hoping to be able to give you a...

    Will anyone be doing a clinic or minor tech service? I wouldn't mind having my amplifier double checked since the rebuild!

    On the hunt for atf-016 low pass filter

    Thanks, I have read several threads and there are a few models that you've listed. I'll keep digging! I just answered a Craigslist ad for a tx-9100 not that I would use that for a donor. If it's good I'll put it right into service!

    On the hunt for atf-016 low pass filter

    Thanks, he did understand me! Any thoughts? My tuner lost one channel after a re-cap and the tech bypassed that side. I can definitely hear a difference in sound between the two channels. There is a few threads from years past but nothing lately. :)

    On the hunt for atf-016 low pass filter

    I thought I'd use this thread to keep info together. I need an atf-016 for my tx-8100 and saw this board on eBay, is that red cube what I need? I asked the guy but I don't think he understood me. It's from a sx-990

    New life for old system

    I felt guilty about not de-magn' my deck so before I played too many tapes I picked up a han-d-mag. Should do the job and then some. You usually can't go wrong with the best.

    New life for old system

    Listening to a pair of Sony 100 watt bookshelves in the basement while I clean the pellet furnace. I'm hoping to spend more time down here cleaning and organizing.

    N.H. state official abusing my grandson!

    I wish! Our first few attorneys just laid down in court! The whole thing is a setup, they give the children to the bad parent and then the good parent fights and fights and fights. This feeds money continuously into the whole system! It's all about money!

    N.H. state official abusing my grandson!

    I know that this is unconventional and I hope that I am not breaking any forum rules but our family is being destroyed by a high ranking NH Fire Safety official who has been abusing our grandson for years! Our ex-son-in-law has used his connections to stop DCYF investigations and now with the...

    New life for old system

    Here's a peek at the new main filter caps. This amplifier really wakes up the new 301s it draws way more bass out of them. I noticed a richness that I wasn't hearing before. Hard to describe but there is something about the sound of the 9100 as people say!

    3 questions on pioneer tx-8100

    From what I read an alignment is mandatory with a complete recap. My invoice says "tweek" alignment. The Tech told me that he lost money on my amplifier and tuner so I think he cut his losses on the alignment. I'll talk to him but I don't think I will be going back there.

    I've noticed that the pointer is .3 off I guess I will have to live with that.

    3 questions on pioneer tx-8100

    I took the cover and faceplate off and the string looks okay, I think it's the wires for the pointer light causing the pointer to lift. Also I opened the meter bulb cover and peeked in. Now that I'm thinking back I remember that saw tooth looking shadow being there 35 years ago. Must have got...

    3 questions on pioneer tx-8100

    I just got my tuner back after nearly 6 months and I was told that after installing led lights and replacing 38 capacitors, during the bench test one channel stopped working. He traced it down to the FM LPF # ATF-016-0 He said that he could not find one so he added his own parts to get the...
