LOL, I just realized I have the CFA Vega here. Will get going on it this weekend. Apr 7, 2021 at 9:28 PM

  OK, which one of you guys broke HF again?

  yeah... the "Olive-Welti" curve. I'll still take it over Face Tweeter curve anyday.

  Nighthawk is pretty good so far. Don't know if they changed it or if the Woo7 and their DAC did it no favors at the shows.

    I wonder if yours sounds different than what I heard at Tyll's for some reason. It was just plain bad.

  When is the Dharma headphone coming out? Looking forward to this reincarnation of the AKG340.

    Maybe ask them for a loaner?

  Did somebody post a question on how far the HD650 can scale? I can't find that post.

  I'm tempted to do a Changstar build of EHHA and put it on the loaner program.

    Great idea. EHHA with the proper PSU mods is a killer amp with HD800. I prefer it to a Pinnacle i heard.

    I'd be willing to build stuff. I've been thinking about doing a Changstar build of the new Torpedo 3.

  The companies have figured out the game: 1) price it out of SuperBAF's reach so we can't measure it; 2) thus paving the way for Jude hype.

Ears validate the measurements, not the other way. Well, sometimes the measurements keep us honest.
