  1. Gimp x2, though it's not the easiest to start with. Course neither is Photoshop. If you're on OS X you have a bunch of new great apps to choose from. Three of the best are: http://www.pixelmator.com/ http://flyingmeat.com/acorn/ http://www.getdrawit.com/
  2. Man, love the look of the enclosures. Very, very nice. Much better than my lets keep staining it cherry and hope for the best even though the eighth coat looks no better than the second method. :'( Welcome to the fold. Very nice amp.
  3. back nwod
  4. It's been strange to watch the HD595 be called a decent HD5/6X0 alternative, to great at its price point, to "the definition of mid-fi" over the years. Part of that is the impedance and price change, but I still think they're really good all-arounds for low impedance duties too. The upper Senns smoke them of course and they are certainly grainy, but I sold off SR225s and HHF1s because they got less use than the HD595s when an amp wasn't convenient or available (eventually the only use for any of the three when better phones were around). You could say the Grados do what they do better (and I'd no doubt reach for them for specific rock artists, cello pieces, etc.), but they also do a lot more generally wrong across the board.
  5. 1.5 bottles of wine, 3 tablets treating ADD, 1 Japanese/Korean-hybrid Goth Lolita DVD which double-featured with a legendary Rolling Stones banned doc makes an interesting Ohio evening. So generally good at 5:08am. Wishing Voltron, JP, and everyone a great turkey day.
  6. Fuck, I thought this was a sarcastic site. Err ... least lately day of the year I'll be shopping.
  7. I think it's still the same day back there. HBD!
  8. Keep the comments coming. Granodemost, mind if I ask what setup you heard the Ed.9 with that blew?
  9. GS1000 Edition 9 HD580 ER4S HD595 A900 LiveWires T1 KSC75 HD25-1 II Steelsound 5H
  10. When it doubt take The Hoff test. Stare at the below image for ten repetitions, then ask yourself if you still want to post.
  11. Is there a general preference?
  12. Discount would be $500. So it would basically be $1500 v. $1300 for the combo.... which I already have. If I sold the SB3/DA10, probably $400-500 to "upgrade". jp11801 thanks for the offer. Unfortunately, I leave on vacation Sunday so won't be around.
  13. Anyone have any thoughts on this battle? Have the opportunity to pick up a Transporter discounted, but curious if others have compared?
  14. Maybe 'ho' means something even worse in Australia? Like goat-licker? Or maybe it's just Santas gasping of breath with the sun beating down on them in Summer?
  15. Next they're going to recommend against saying 'baaaaaad.' baaaaaad .
  16. Do you think just non-whores are potentially offended?
  17. Justin I just emailed you page 19. Still trying for 2.
  18. As others have said, use Google cache to get any info you need before it possibly disappears. This includes the entire Pico'>www.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php%3Ft%3D261440+pico+head-fi&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=us]Pico thread. Also it looks like the Wayback Machine may have gotten some of the site.
  19. 60% chance of rain and "lightning likely." Seems a mixed message.
  20. Yeah, sorry to disappoint. At a substantially reduced cost, I picked them up after spending time with a couple pairs and owning other Ultrasones. While I prefer the GS1K for most situations, there isn't another closed can I prefer sub-$1K. Apologies AT fans. I agree though they can sound flat with a lot of gear. The recent San Jose meet showed that. So maybe there aren't enough members here to have one who liked the Ed.9 enough to consider balancing. Last call?
  21. Ugh. Why did this have to be the next link I clicked?
  22. Quite the lucky guy.
  23. Same problem with Safari 3 here yesterday (no CSS load and cookie break), though later on the Touchs "mobile" Safari it was fine.
  24. So Georgia is having a drought and the governor decided the best fix is going 'old school.' We taking bets on this working in 2007? Anyone know how Alabama spinned the continuing drought?
