Together they are Brown Roach.

This belongs in the DIY thread, not speaker porn.

I have found that separating the outer cups and inserting live cockroaches vastly improves bass response in these headphones. They need to be true German cockroaches, as palmetto bugs and African cockroaches are too big and bloat the bass to near unlistenable. 6-8 roaches per cup should be about right. And don't forget to sprinkle in some crushed mouse droppings every few weeks. Dead roaches don't make good bass!

Fitz says it's been running for about 24 hrs. Notice the battery life.

Not fucked up at all. Quite simple actually. Cuil = LSD

If I had a nickle...

Happy Birthday Al! I hope you have a really good day today! And also a very big Happy Birthday to my business partner Milo!

Yes.

I actually love the threaded spindle. My clamp is an aftermarket, carbon fiber trimmed deal, that I found somewhere back in the day. It's threaded and has such a nice flat seal. I can torque a record as needed.

The new battery and case back arrived at Fitz's place. It seems as though he has everything working well. He's going to keep it for a week or so, to be sure everything is functioning correctly, after closing it all up inside the case. Having a 1tb. iPod with solid state drive is going to be very useful for me, and Fitz even stuffed a whole bunch of his music in there for me. Thanks Fitz!

Love that album. Found it on vinyl at Goodwill a few weeks ago. But not while "Walking in LA".

I've never seen that video before. That's always been a favorite Steely Dan song.

He's going to buy whole cows and cut his own briskets.

Hadn't heard of this show, until Al texted me about it last night. I got sucked in by episode one, with great music and fun characters, so I started watching more tonight. It takes place in London in 1983-88. I just finished, it's only 5 episodes. I feel like I just did a tour on the front lines of a horrible battle. It's not for the faint of heart, but it's the most realistic portrayal of the AIDS epidemic I've seen. It brought up so many memories that I haven't confronted in so long, and friends cut down way too early. A rough ride, but maybe that's what it has to be, to tell the real story.

I was just shocked to see that they had concrete driveways in Arkansas!

I was having a stroke and Al just laughed and continued taking pictures. Or I could have been acting like an idiot. Can't remember which.

Set kitchen cabinets with Milo. Maybe he took pics.

I'm not sure either. I liked the movie Three Days of the Condor alright, but it's said to be quite different from the book.

Just watched the first two episodes of this new series on EPIX. It's based on the book 6 Days of the Condor. An interesting cast to be sure. Some new people and a lot of actors that haven't really been seen in a while. I found it worthy of a few more episodes at least.

If you find a wealthy enough customer, Ebony mills like a dream.

Well, that clears that up!

My own top is quickly moving toward a similar weight.

Bryan, as one who has not listened to any Focal headphones, can you give me a broad idea of the Utopia sound signature?

That's a pretty bold and generalized statement. And one I take issue with.
