Actually, I think the Benchmark's headphone jack is excellent. You can also get a headphone jack mod done at Empirical audio along with other mods. Where are you using the headphones? If it's next to your two channel setup why not go from your com... 
Acoustic Sounds Customer Service
I ordered sleeves recently from Music Direct and they were bent because they weren't flattened out in the shipping box and bunched up inside. Is that what you're talking about? It did make them more difficult to use but I figured once they've be a... 
Stolen SoundLabs - just in case...
Maybe they didn't like the sound of stats. Look out for post saying as much and be very suspicious of the poster.Anyway, we're all relieved. The good guys win again.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if these were dumped somewhere...that's what I would do with huge speakers like that if I didn't know what they were. Or maybe they'll call Soundlab to ask about value, instructions, etcI'm sure you called Soundlab a...

How does the Technics SL 1200 compare with....
Johnnyb53, I had the exact same thoughts. I spent $900 (shipped) for my limited ed. 1200 and have it now at KAB for another $900 in upgrades. There's a barely used scout listed today for less than that so it makes me think.However...I owned an Ari... 
Looking for a great DAC for my Airport Express....
