Proggm · February 29th, 2012, 12:35 AM

Just bought a 2nd one. Let's hope they sound fine as oh's in my room.

MG-Chris · February 29th, 2012, 09:36 AM

This guy just showed up. Haven't set it up yet, but it sure is pretty.

Bysen · February 29th, 2012, 01:44 PM

Beautiful!

006 · February 29th, 2012, 03:09 PM

Whoah, had no idea they made a Navarro SE. I think I kinda want it... and then swap out the gold hardware for black.... haha.

StefTD · March 1st, 2012, 03:52 AM

I thought exactly the same 006

Melb_shredder · March 1st, 2012, 04:31 AM

Just scored a set of Event Opals for a stupid price.

And:

2x Sm57 (3 in total now)
2x Rode NT5 for OH
1x Samson CA02 for hats
1x AKD I forget the model

Good fucking day

Just got my Yammies in yesterday. Stoked on awesome they sound in my room, even before the break-in period is over. BTW, how long does a typical break-in take? What are you guys doing to break them in? I got my previous set of monitors when I really didn't know to think about this sort of thing.

MG-Chris · March 1st, 2012, 12:07 PM

^ What monitor stands are you using? I just got some HS80Ms as well, and I've been hunting for some BS-336's for them, but nobody seems to stock them anymore.

heshian46 · March 1st, 2012, 12:34 PM

Umm, i dont remember the brand name. I was at a GC one day and they were getting rid of them for next to nothing. They are MDF, with the pillar filled with play sand. Super heavy duty, they work great.

Something like this:

Just got this'n for $50

This thing is a MONSTER. I figured I just bought another TS clone, but it growls and rips like a top fuel dragster. TS9 leaves a bit more bass in the tone though...but nothing your EQ settings couldn't fix.

If you haven't cranked them yet, hold off and just get some music playing on loop for an hour or so; bring the level up to maximum slowly over that period, just so you don't stress any of the components. Treat them like you would treat a brand new car that just came off the assembly line. Ease it in over the first hundred or so kilometers, and resist giving it the beans until it's ready.

7string · March 1st, 2012, 09:40 PM

Since Ola's HD Pro videos, even been jonseing for one.
I got an X3 pod brand new for $200 and TH2 instead of the HD bean.
I'll never be able to afford an AFX.

I replaced my EMG 81 with a Seymour Duncan SAHB-3B BLK Blackout Mick Thomson Signature Pickup,

result:

Just joined the happy Schecter Loomis owners club:

Awesome axe! The finish is bit f-ed up on the lower side of the body and on the neck but everything else compensates for it and makes me forget about such visual details.

Jep, best "bang for the buck" setup out there right now.
Maybe completed with a decent noise suppressor in the near future? ;-)
