        You should still try the JAR650 if u get a chance, I personally like it slightly more than the JAR600. Also please try to keep it within SBAF if you end up listing it in the future, Enjoy! :)

        Thanks again and yes...I am going to keep the post open for a JAR650 and change my preference in the loaner tour to 650 as well. I know they are popular around here and will keep it in the rotation if I do sell.

        I always miss deals like this. I'm in the market for the JAR600 if you ever thought of letting them go.

      Two things i do not recommend. 1. Detachable cable mod on Grado Hemp 2. Using HD800 connectors to do so

        Why don't you recommend the detachable cable mod?

        The stock cable makes no sense, good cable... way too heavy. At most could be four conductor.

        The cascade cable could not be any lighter and are a great match for the headphone!

      Was enjoying Foo Fighters Sonic Highways, but distortion in "In the Clear" left channel only, starting at about 2:30 really ruined it.

        I’ve heard oddities with other Foo Fighters albums as well. Distortion in channels, guitars flipping sides briefly, really weird mixing mistakes. It was only on Tidal but Yourube version and Google Play music were fine.

        I have been noticing a lot of poor recording quality on tidal lately and frankly it is disappointing. I tried youtube, GPM, and Apple music, each service had the same distortion/buzz...just more noticeable in Tidal.

      rewatching "Community" on Netflix...The Billiards episode has got to be one of the top five funniest episodes on TV. It was perfect

        Anyone know what happened with Community? I remember watching it years ago, there was a huge change in script writing after the first season.

        Happened with Parks and Rec too...lots of normal characters season 1 who became much more defined and exaggerated in the following seasons (not that it was a bad thing)...but ended to soon as well.

        Also Glover decided to get out because he had other projects/invitations and the same with Chase and the other, that I don't remember the name. Also there was the rumors of production disagreements. It's a shame because i think it easily could've gotten 2 more seasons out of it.

        A deep rabbit hole indeed. I have been exploring the same when too lazy to make my own since flour was scarce. I like the thinner varieties like Home Run and Screamin Sicilian and when I want slightly healthier Newmans and Amy's but appreciate the doughy kinds too.

        Never got a chance to try ZMF hybrid pads myself. Auteur Solid LS is what I run on mine. Just depends on what sound you're going for and what (if any) mods you've got installed.

        I removed the back plate and added the rug liner... The ori pads add a bit more tonal richness over the auteur LS. I have ether 2 pads to try as well, but first I need to get a good handle on the zmfs. BE2s are going to go though.

        Yup, going for a Saga to replace the Gilmore will be better in every way.
