I own an original xbox 360 elite (released in 2007, IIRC) that has not had a single issue so far....knock on wood.

I disagree, I think Pars has the most useful posts in this thread. A recommendation via third party is a terrible way to recommend gear, leave that stuff on headfi.

Might as well be lugging a boat anchor around, doh.

Sausages, perhaps.

Rudders....that's just so apt.

Snow tires make one hell of a difference during emergency maneuvers. For instance, having to swerve around someone that slid into an intersection because they were going too fast to stop at a stop sign. That one was a common event when I was in Japan and it was always an American....go figure.

Currently amping it with the Torpedo, sounds quite good! From initial impressions, this headphone seems to be the polar opposite of the HD800's, rather fun.

What, you mean it won't have 24/192 support??

Because it's easy to toss a 16/48 chip into a design, the higher resolution usb inputs are more costly in time, money, development, and sometimes licensing fees.

Thanks for the info Dan, I'll stick with my current all seasons So their driving behavior in the rain correlates to their driving behavior in the snow? Oh dear.

I'm in Columbia, roughly 15 miles southwest of Baltimore. I don't plan on going anywhere far, especially during the winter (work is only a 10 min drive away) What concerns me the most about the upcoming winter are the other drivers on the road; I've seen how people drive in the rain here and I don't get warm fuzzies thinking of how they'd drive in snow.

I was thinking of picking up snow tires, though I've been told I should be fine with all seasons if it's a typical Maryland winter.

I really liked the blizzaks I got while in Japan, they made a very good improvement over the standard all-seasons I was using up till that point.

I'm not an electrician either, but I have stayed at a Holiday Inn before.

The fact that the sparking happened at the power cord would lead me to believe that the house wiring was not at fault.

Thanks! Haven't watched The Pacific yet and never did get around to buying Band of Brothers so this works out well

It's certainly not listed as the main title/model name, but it's definitely referenced by Stax: Open air type Earspeaker : SR-007 (OMEGAII) [url=http://www.stax.co.jp/Japan/sr-007J.html]

That 7844 is sold, I asked a while back

Ohhh....feisty.

So you were sarcastic about reading the PM? That doesn't sound smart.

ohhhh.....fancy!

I see, I didn't quite read your comment correctly Just picked it up as well...thanks!

The discs in that 60disc set are SACD hybrids? I have maybe two or three out of that, so I'm thinking it might be a good starter/sampler set for me

So you mean it needs to come in black?
