  Black Widow 2 is finally back from repair for a degradation in one channel - PCB reflow, new pot. So far so good...tentatively happy.

    Did EC do this work for you, or a third party?

    No, a local amp builder since I'm in South Africa. I doubt Craig would have much interest in servicing a BW though, I think that's ancient history for him now.

    After the semi result, NZ media opinion was that the 'boks had no chance. One-eyed, as usual. Well done SA!

  Made an offer on a house. The deal looks like it should go through without incident. Cautiously stoked.

    Amazing! 26.2 miles in under 2 hrs. He had a large team helping him (pace runners and technology). Really incredible to beat his own world record by about 2 mins.

    That depends entirely on what you believe, since she passed a few years ago. Are we allowed to get into Religion on here, is it just guns and politics that are verboten? Given you're in India I suspect you may have to reincarnate. And therein may lie the seed of a great insult!

  Using BW2 as a preamp to Genelecs. There's a nice synergy.

    Sobriety bears this out this morning. Genelecs sound fantastic through BW2. The difference between simple rendering vs presentation is exquisite.

  BW2 is operational. Sounding pretty damn sweet with HD600. There is hum from the 230-110 trafo from about 6 volume but I listen at 2-3 :).

  At what point does crosstalk become a problem? It's always in the specs but not talked about much.

  XLR Switch Witch - anyone used one of these?: https://www.procosound.com/product/396/switch-witch

    Anything in these that can't be DIYed? Seems a bit expensive just for a switch and XLR plugs. A two way at least can be done for pennies.

    Well sure. I suck at DIY :).

  I'm quite surprised how much better stuffing a bit of foam into my BT running earphones works for channel imbalance vs. balance adjustment.

  BW2 incoming, I have HD6XX, but what plays best with it? I know it's recommended for 800/s but is that the sweetest spot?

    I use modded HD650's (KISS Mod) with my BW2 and have been extremely happy with the combination. With that said, I can see stock HD6XX/650's as being too warm. Enjoy your new toys! :)

    Thanks folks. I find HD6XX a little warm even with DAC1541 so HD600 it will be. I have a friend who can really use a pair of HD6XX and will appreciate them.

  Trying JRMC again. Converted library to FLAC. Crashing on playlist clear, fixed by patch. Now import broken. Restore broken too. FU JRMC.
