This country needs to implement and embrace mass transit on a full scale basis. Until we come to the understanding that riding alone to work everyday in our vehicles is just stupid, we will not even begin to start solving the problem. We have become a nation of spoiled brats that want everything. God forbid this country would have to ration supplies like it did during WWII. Instead of a mass outpouring of support, there would be a mass hysteria. I'm really hoping that these high gas prices will force people to think differently.

Says the rookie Dad, in truth there will be a time when you go down there to work on projects just to get some peace and quiet. That may be 3 kids away yet, but mark my words.

First off congrats on a beautiful β22 Jack! That one is really stunning! My β22 is set at a gain of 7 from what luvdunhill says here, but I thought it was 5 from what he said while he was working on it. It drives my K340 effortlessly, it also drives my Chocolate Donuts effortlessly, and they're even more power hungry than the K340. I would think that a gain of 2 would drive the Senns. without breaking a sweat. I have to turn my volume down a fair bit when driving my HD 580. That said, my source has a high gain. I find that the amp drives low impedance phones just as well. My deep woody CD3000s sound amazing with this amp. Again congrats on a very, very nice amp Jack. Welcome to β22 heaven.

I doubt that a Germania cable could be topped anyway. Better to just buy from her.

You look serious enough in that pic to be a police officer.

Yeah me too. In fact I don't find them overly heavy either, because they fit me so well. I guess my head is smaller than most guys my size, because I haven't had any real issues with headphone fit at all. I hope that's not related to brain capacity, but that would explain some things in my past. I did find the screen mod and the velour to be a great improvement though, but after 20 years of wearing them stock they felt very different at first.

Must have been the formula Grawk. That is pretty freaky! Mine were lost by my Father during my parents divorce. But a few years back my Grandmother divided all of my families childhood pics that they had and gave them to me and my siblings. It was really cool to see them after a 30 year absence.

Come on you big chickens! Nobody's pic could be any worse than mine. I mean look at those chiclets!

Absolutely adorable!

We're mostly all grown ups now, with realistic ideas and expectations. Show us who you were when your goals and dreams were unhindered by caution flags and dead end roads. I wasn't overly unique, I wanted to be a rock star. Didn't matter that I couldn't sing. Yes those were my real teeth.

My old DT990 600 ohm had uber bass!

Very nice Posty, I know you'll love it! Glad to hear the AC situation is now resolved Nate.

Posty what ?22 do you have coming?

Sorry to hear that. That's a beautiful dog too. Hope you had many good times to reflect on.

Other than material for the plinth and eventually a better cartridge, I've just about gathered everything for the new table build.

I'm 47 and I don't view the Beatles as played out. I, like you, put talent above genre or popularity. I try not to live in the past as far as music is concerned, but I don't mind visiting it.

That's something I was wondering about.

Have a great time Vicki!

Hmmm, what kind of project could these be for? luvdunhill received all the motor controller parts today. Before long I'll need to finalize my plinth plans and get them on the workbench.

Just built a giant fresh fruit salad...2 kinds of apple, pear, pineapple, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, nectarines, kiwi, grapes and mandarin oranges. Then I made a sauce from sour creme, powdered sugar, lemon juice and Grand Marnier. As per usual I over bought, so I'm sitting on 2 gallons of fruit salad. My neighbors will get a visit later.

Me! Of coarse I'm the guy that gives me the raise, but that's beside the point. Good luck Reks! Although it's pretty obvious your winning personality will bag them.

Hmmm, Loud as hell, can't hold a conversation, and frigid. That could well be one of my old girlfriends.

They have an odd headstage, but I rather like them on certain genres. I'm still holding an HFer's for him, but I've had no amp since he sold his in January.
