Dale, you’re such a kid. Nothing wrong with that. Same here. At 66, I still laugh when someone farts.
Heh… I saw those tungsten weights, but I thought that was a bit much. Keep us posted though - I can always change my mind. 
Those look really nice. I may order them. I already have several mid range headphones and a couple of headphones amps connected to different sources. I’ve been into audio since the 1960’s. This is what I have at the present time:
Headphones
Denon D2000
Beyer Dynamics DT770 Pro 250 ohm
Tascam TH-02
Sony MDR-V6
Sennheiser PX100
Headphone Amps
Woo Audio WA6
Schiit Asgard (version 1 with mute relay)
DAC’s
2 Schiit version 1 Modi’s
The best pics can be found on BossHiFi's Amazon listing:

I'm not sure if they will look that amazing in person.
You have quite the collection.
I only have two JVC HA-S680's, which are nice for the price.
I read that BossHiFi B8's are even nicer.
Nice mat !! We still live there and go to Pensacola several times a yr for what you have on that mat…. :+1:
DB Custom, Glenn, how are your spinners?
My Atesson spinner in stock form was getting up towards an 8 minute spin on a flat surface. I bought a very high end custom ordered Hybrid Ceramic bearing and Tungsten weights for it and have achieved a vertical spin of 15:10.44. 
Yes, that’s 15 minutes, 10.44 seconds!
Edit: I would be remiss to leave out some specifics, my friend sent me the Atesson spinner that he bought on Amazon for some $15. I then spent $43 for the new bearing and $26 for the weights, in an effort to best his 10 minute spin time. So yeah, while I did best him by a significant margin…it cost me! (SWMBO does not know of this additional incurred cost…. shhhhhh! )
Nice. Mine doesn’t even reach 7 minutes. Maybe I need to clean/lube the bearing?
EDIT: Just rechecked - got close to 8 minutes this time.
Break-in time influences run time. 
NO lube! Oil on the balls inside the bearing will create drag and slow it down. The Atesson uses SS balls in a chromium steel race (51200 I presume) and also has a steel cage that is double sided. It is possible to just wash it out with detergent and hot water and then blow out the remaining water after a good rinse, but it’s imperative it get’s dried good or there could be a possibility of some rust developing.
Dry works best for spinners. Especially ceramic ball spinners. I get that direct from an engineer at a high end bearing company in CA. (yes, I called them)
Got my $6.99 spinner from Amazon. Not impressed. The bearing has play and it only spins for about 90 seconds. I ended up giving it to my neighbors 5 year old son. He loves it.
This one was $4.99. Runtime is about 3 minutes.
Those outer bearings are very light weight, replace those with brass weights or tungsten, changes the game completely.
The brass weights in the $15 Atesson are about 27 grams each, the tungsten aftermarket weights are 45 grams each. Either way, a LOT heavier than those 608 bearings…
Edit: Pics
The brass weights that were in the $15 Atesson spinner…
The new components, high end hybrid ceramic bearing on the left of the original SS bearing, with the Tungsten weights not pressed in yet…
Speaks for itself…
I can’t believe some people still play with spinners :-p
That’s… refreshing
I rarely saw a trend fade that fast to be honest
It’s not that I STILL play with spinners, I just got my first one last week as a gift. lol I must be WAY behind the curve…
Nah, you’re retro :sunglasses:
Ordered a Parasound Zpre3 preamplifier from Audio Advisor. I have the matching power amp. It’s going to replace my old non-remote controlled Parasound PHP-850 in my bedroom system.
Replacing this 15 year old preamp
.
My new PreAmp came yesterday. It’s on the right. The matching Poweramp which I purchased 15 years ago has a rack mount front panel which they don’t offer any more as standard equipment. Oh well. Not that it matters for my use. So far it’s been impressive driving my B&W 603 series 3 loudspeakers in my AV bedroom system.
Picture before the upgrade
Very nice, Glenn! Love those B&Ws.
Thanks, Pete! I purchased them when they were still made in England many years ago. B&W’s are now made in China. Really depressing to be honest. They are very efficient and able to get high volumes out of a 45 watt per channel power amp. It’s for watching my collection of movies, TV shows, and my vast collection of music that I converted from my CD’s in Flac files. For a bedroom system, it’s pretty damn good.
