How have you found those B&C DE 10-8 tweeter drivers? I’ve heard mostly good things about them myself.

I would grab them too, if it wasn’t so far.

Boy oh boy do I hate these scams!

Just received a Beyerdynamic DT990 250 ohm headphone and am impressed! Needs 100 hours to break in I read but sounds great right out of the box.

Doing some research I found the above question to be I would say a loaded question. Open back, closed back, 80 ohm or 250 ohm, the choices go on and on. Years ago you’d just get any headphone and it would pretty much work. I had an 1140 Dokorder with Koss pro 4aa and it worked fine. Now I’m trying to get the right phones to listen on my Bluesound Vault 2. I found the Beyerdynamic 770 with 250 ohms might fit the bill. But I will be listening in a fairly quiet room so maybe open back instead of closed back would be better? Steve

Oh, what would you suggest as I’m looking for a really good pair in the $75-$160 range, you know, the ones that are 90% as good as the ones for $999……………………I’m not a man of means. (Retired).

I’m in the market for them. Not a fan of ear buds.

Hammurabi Hellmates, the best sound for 1400 BCE!

Probably smell interesting too.

Where are you located?

He got me looking for Klipschorns, he will be missed! Almost 90, a full life.

My corners are 20.5 feet apart and each corner has 8 inches on centers instead of 16 inches for 4 feet out in back and sides. Pretty solid.

A-ha, did you check out a series lV Cornwall. Looks just like, oh wait I just saw the date, series lV came out just after I believe.

Mr Haney, definitely an interesting man.

That Fiat to Ferrari comparison is pretty good, although I also have the 600’s and love them!

These are nice amps! GLWS.

GLWS! Steve

I suppose then that Kenwood and Marantz are similar in nature of reliability and build quality? Steve

Good to know, I’ve heard the same thing from others over time and you being in the know confirms my belief. Steve

Now I wonder I don’t have any history with these amps but to me Kenwood amps vs. Harmon/Kardon amps - I always wondered similar ratings and such, which has the better build, reliability and such?

What are you using as a preamp, if I may inquire?

Super nice looking, Good luck with them. Are you using a tube amp with them?

Tell your kids to look on eBay there’s a pair of Quartets in Oregon for $599 right now.

Pops indeed, had good taste!

I agree 110% with Schu!
