  1. A real loss for underground comix and Cleveland today. Obits here, here and here. Pick up a copy of American Splendor or watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBv3TzH2jao. Play him off Toby.

    Anyone know the part number on this? I assume this Beyer pad is the one recommended around this time ('05-07) for Grados and Senns? Is it this one? http://north-america.beyerdynamic.com/shop/hah/spare-parts/kopfpolster.html
  3. Same here (though split on iPad-night and Kindle-day). Gotta see Restrepo soon too.

  5. Fair enough and I shouldn't have picked on a small statement. Sorry for that. I'm one of the few that didn't consider the Kindle until after the iPad entered my life and got me used to tablets as a device. Long text is one of the few uses the iPads LCD screen didn't help any more than the zero novels I ever read on my laptops LCD screen and Amazon adding video functionality to their iPad Kindle app doesn't help much on the text front either. And 'cause I can be a jerk, I gotta ask, sorry again, how many years behind the readers on the iPad do printed books seem?
  6. Moar functionality, which is different, right? I've only owned a Kindle for a few days, and love the iPad, but it doesn't take long to see which is the 'better reader' for long texts. Well, at least it's open for debate.
  7. BTW, on the Guardian Eyewitness app, I'm probably the last to realize this, but as the images are formatted for the screen, screen capturing them makes some nice wallpapers.
  8. More painful than... ?
  9. I'm planning on testing with...
  10. Thanks, would definitely appreciate it much. Actually, they have backup instructions on the site - Techspansion - which I kept meaning to do and then screwed up.
  11. x2. Doubly wish I had backed it up before reformatting a HD. Luckily Handbrake has picked up some of the slack.
  12. I use Universal, but back the Constant Quality RF from 20 to 20.5 (to usually keep under 2GB and the occasional file system issues that hit above). That's for archiving and transfer, not iPad related. The file extension shouldn't matter though. Have done a bunch on a Windows and Mac Handbrakes and ended up with both .mp4 and .m4v.
  13. In the last 3 minutes I've received email notifications of an Airport Extreme shipping, a Kindle received at work, and a JH13 impression arriving in their lab (and expected to ship the 15th). Triple hit. Life is good.
  14. No, they are... when they are. Often I feel there is the K1000 and then there is every other headphone. Staging, top-end and general live performance energy recreation can be so good. That said eliminating all the practical considerations of size, isolation, dedicated amp, portability, etc. and focusing solely on audiophile recordings, their low end is still problematic on a large minority of the well recorded music out there. And a lot of those tunes are wonderful and I don't want to compromise. I guess we all know this, but approaching solving that bottom issue brings in even more practical concerns. Couple that with generally I dislike previewing every track in my head before deciding which phone to grab, I find myself often going back and forth between the K1000 being still underrated and overrated. Little comes remotely close in success, or as easy to demonstrate failure (across gear). IMO the 4070 performs better overall on that scale, though no doubt significantly behind the K1K on many [most audiophile?] recordings. From the comments of others, I optimistically hope JH13/3A+16 is in the ballpark (maybe even while used in a ballpark).

    Thanks much.
  16. Anyone have a case they're particularly found of? Was thinking of this or this, but would consider anything that gets out of the way and doesn't make the Kindle feel even more plasticy.
