  1. This whole time I thought you worked for The Shining Path.
  2. Those are commonly called IEMs. Ignore the arrow. The 13/16 codes.
  3. From Google. Maybe not a good sign.

  5. Hopefully results in a stronger narrative than Deadwood. Downloaded the torrent last night. Not sure if something this expensive, helmed by a major director, qualifies as a 'pilot,' but if so it seemed to do everything right. It's a great base to run. Now let's see how they focus on story. Not sure I've seen so many beautiful female characters in a TV show before (though they've not received much screen time yet). And the sets and compositions and edits were nearly perfect. Makes Mad Men appear a stylistic facade in comparison. Fingers crossed. Plus nice to see Omar again.
  6. New iPad air conditioners... err speakers: FloBox, FloBox Mini and Vital amp all include an iPad dock - Engadget
  7. Thanks for the suggestions guys. Really great starting point. One of these will likely work out. Maybe the CAL. Love especially the Stello, but afraid it's kinda outta my price range (as it's going to be in minority use status). Probably no CDJ because of aesthetic reasons.
  8. Size is getting to be important and looking for a small cheap CDP with digital outs. Coming to you all for help. Used fine. Haven't had luck finding much, but something along the lines of this would work. Otherwise seems to be more DVD players (though not always with displays) in this range. Basically going for a Squeezebox/Lavry/GS-1 rig so trying to keep width near or less than 10". And Dusty Approved Black. Anyone know of any CD models I should consider or DVD players usable with an external display? If only my DVD-2900 was about a quarter its size.

    Longform

    A couple fun articles found on todays Longform if you're a film fan... Getting Made The Scorsese Way | longform.org Making It Up As You Go Along | longform.org
  10. x2 though most of my experience was pre-Creative ownership. Was sad to see them leave the West Coast. Stores were fun visits in pre-headphone days. Even after Creative bought their lines were always better than Creatives similar. Bet it sounds decent.

    99rental.com - Midgets vs. Mascots (Unrated) is $0.99 on iTunes US "Released 2010 – His ungrateful preppy son competing against his unfaithful, gold-digging wife for his sizable fortune, a deceased mascot turned porn mogul pits the sniveling pair against one another by having them coach competing teams of midgets and mascots in this comedy starring Gary Coleman. As the competition gets underway, the little people discover that size doesn’t always matter while their cartoonish counterparts attempt to stay sober long enough to take the top prize. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4guUdHl2tU iUsers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4guUdHl2tU
  12. We don't know the quality of the 24/192 DAC in the Olive, but doesn't seem more expensive to me than whatever system you'd have a $400-500 ripper/NAS drive in. Add $300-$1K for the missing DAC and you approach/go over the new Olives price, no?

    The Wire

  15. VLC Media Player for iPad now available, your video codec worries decidedly lessen -- Engadget
  16. Nice pairing with the Glite. I'm a sucker for gear that visually matches.
  17. In case you missed it on Fireball. Kinda cool. My First Week with the iPhone | Behind the Curtain
  18. That wave groove finish on his R-series pre was crazy nice.
  19. Kraft's Grilled Cheese Explosion.
  20. It was of course number three. Rep started activating, got hung up, then fudged the rest. I even worked for AT&T a bit (then SBC) and it wasn't so bad, but it kills me I have to deal with them as a customer as every transaction is a disaster (last was AT&T DSL change to new AT&T DSL that killed my tubes for three weeks). Anyway, fixed now. Been searching 10 pages of 'case' search results in this thread and only came across a few 'JH13s don't fit,' etc. comments, so apologies if this was covered before, but anyone got any 'is great'/'stay away' suggestions for the free case program (before it disappears)? Leaning towards the Incase Snap Smoke, but could be swayed.
  21. HBDS!
  22. Not sure if this has discussed elsewhere, but Jack White's on sale tomorrow. iUsers: Jack White's triple-decker LP | The Audiophiliac - CNET News
  23. Looks like the first convertible case is now for sale. AIDACASE brings Keycase Folio Deluxe iPad case to the US -- Engadget
  24. Well, I'm being told by AT&T my new phone micro-SIM card is already activated on another account. Fishy for a new wrapped phone (with SIM number correctly printed on phone box). Wonder if it's a refurb, evil hackers or just general AT&T incompetence?
