Wow, I didn't watch much of the game, but based on the bit I DID see, i thought the Hawks were looking pretty good/solid. Will need to check out the highlights now....

Caps are just WAY too strong & fast.....poor Isles just collapsed.....

Damn, there go the plans for my Chinese Funeral!

Agreed, at least on the dad is looking great part! Such a great way to spend time, Al!

I think I like "Live Seeds" the most....Murder Ballads a close second for studio recordings

Good to hear, Grant, hopefully the "details" are all simple enough.

Thank you Senators and Rangers!

Even though they've bent the Bruins over recently, I don'thate the Caps. But still want the Isles to win.... #anyonebuthabsandpens

I may look at those ATH-MSR7's at some point......while I like the B&W P5-S2 enough sound-wise, and it isolates well enough, my aforementioned comfort issues keep me lightly spying other options. EDIT: dang, I should pull out my old re-cabled Senn 280's. Old enough that the clamping isn't bad, isolate like the dickens, and remember thinking the sound wasn't as bad (artificial highs) as some thought.

Happy Birthday!

That's the Capitals team that kicked butt on the Bruins all season. Some screw-ups (credit to Isles, too) but a good fast & physical game.

Agree with Jacob, I picked up a used P5-S2 for work. Only complaint is fit, the way they rub on my ears. It's good for a while but I do feel like I need to remove them for a spell. Sound is pretty decent, though I thought the Senn 600 was clearly better. Senn's just didn't isolate much at all.

Agreed, and Pittsburgh looked pretty good in the 2nd and 3rd; we'll see if Fleury skips his post-season meltdown. They may make this a series, but still hope the Rangers win out. Rooting for the Jets, too, Iain. Just like them as a team, like the fans I've seen online, and happy they are in the playoffs.

Yup....from Holland on down, they've reinvented themselves into a great organization! They used to be a lot like the Bruins, bad ownership and management that didn't seem to care about the sport. Both teams changed that, but the Hawks still do it among the best in the league. Bruins....not as good..... EDIT: woops, meant Bowman on down. Holland is Detroit, and their model is also one of the best IMO......

Chicago....wow. I didn't watch the game with Nashville, but saw some highlights. I kind of like Nashville as the "new kid on the block" and all, but damn is Chicago good, they just keep fighting. They may be in cap trouble next year with Kane and Toews making such huge $, but they really know how to build a team.....

Canadiens won....with MaxPac out and Subban ejected no less.....I wanted Ottawa to beat them, continuing their amazing run....oh, well, maybe next game.

I bought 3 times and sold twice. Both sales were years ago in the $500 range, just before prices jumped up. Now I have a pair that isn't going anywhere soon.....hard-wired with Stefan Audio Art cable with unterminated wire at the speaker end.

Holy crap, Shelly, your pest problems are just nasty! Hopefully an easy enough fix, but sorry you have to go through it.... Dusty: our cats are pretty mellow, one will sit there and let you touch his paws all day. The second Karen comes out with the clippers, ZING he's like a flash away. The other cat loves to be cuddled, held like a baby; but he is skittish otherwise. The place that gives the shaggy one his "lion cut" said to just hold them firmly by the scruff and cut, and that works for us. But it takes two....

Wow, that's a pretty wild guess for the finals.....I have actually been impressed with the Caps this season, Trotz has them playing well; this is Ovechkin's best year for +/-, yes? Anyway, I think it'll be a tough series with the Isles, but I think Holtby will play better than Halak and the Caps will pull it off. I can't see Detroit getting to the Conference Final for the East, though. And sorry, but I think Rangers take the Caps if they face them. Sucks that the Bruins are out this year, but they deserve the poor results they got. Need some medium size tweaks methinks, with a lot depending on how injured players come back next year. I think it'll allow me to enjoy the playoffs more as a result, too.

Apple Birthday, Jeffy!

Karen and I clipped our cats' nails tonight. Livin' the dream......

Ouch....hope it gets better soon Haj!

^^^ I just saw this a couple days ago and it intrigued me, will look into it more. Thanks! EDIT: found some notes about them, very interesting!
