      After an exhausting afternoon of doctor visits , we get home and smell very acrid smoke. Five alarm fire directly across the street.

        You could see from my apartment flames coming through the roof of the other apartment building.fortunately nobody hurt but tremendous damage. My son's friend and family got out OK.

      Hmm, the plan was to sell off either the HD 600 or 650M. Would it be batschiit crazy to just keep them both.

        I've kept both of those for now Colgin, but prefer the FR of the 600 overall. Hoping a modified KISS mod will let me get rid of the 600. :)

        Not a huge fan of stock 650, but am enjoying modded version. Each of it and 600 has their own virtues. Probably still prefer 600 but can see a place for each.

      We lost our beloved 17-year old male cate today, who had fought renal failure for over 7 years but finally succumbed suddenly.

        I'm sorry for your loss. I'm in the midst of sorta the same thing... my 23 yr old cat is slowly dying. Only a matter of time. I just pray that it's quick when it happens. I will pray for your family in this time of grief, and here's hoping time will heal your wounds, and you will be left with only the good memories.

      I can already tell it will be difficult to decide between Valhalla 2 and Jodie.

        @lm4der - if you are primarily running HD6x0 and you have a Valhalla 2 setup you already like, then probably not worth switching over to the Jotun. You might be trading off better technicalities in the Jotun for an overall more engaging sound in the Val2.

        That said, for me, I am leaning towards Jotun since they are still very good with HD 600 and seem to be more versatile.

        Yeah, for me this is primarily in the context of hd650. Given that both Judy and Valerie are said to have good synergy with my cans...

      Getting really late in NYC now and having trouble putting down my HD 600. Just one more song. Don't have this issue with my other cans.

        I think it's pretty stupid myself. Getting rid of the floppy disc was progress. As was ditching the CD drive. Headphone jack? No. Nothing is being improved, you still need a DAC. Making external doesn't make it better. #yayfordongles

        I'm annoyed but this is part of why I bought the Sine. I'm also considering that RHA DAC/amp, seems like it would be better for IEMs than the dongle.

        Unfortunately I can't say the same for myself. I enjoy my modest system more and think that the $150 overnight sensations sound better than most of the speakers there in FR response alone. Wish you could have stayed for longer last meet to get to hear them. Yggdrasil + Odyssey Stratos + OSMT would blow most setups away in a smaller room.

        Yeah, I don't comment on rooms really. It is binary. I either like a setup or not. But there is no way I can figure out sonic aspects of multiple components I don't know thrown together in one system.

        The one common thing I've found is that every single McIntosh system made the speakers sound warm and mushy. After playing around with moving speakers around and measuring, I'm more aware of how a pair of speakers will sound in a room as well.
