He turned down my offer to use a proxy . But yeah if they are blocking just all vBulletins thats pretty stupid. Not only is the forum software used here (Simple Machines) free its faster, more customizable and more scalable than vBulletin .

Well I agree in principle that alot of audio gear is overpriced one of things you do have to keep in mind with someone like Meridian who has a large dealer network is that if they sold direct to consumers you can hack 50% off the price as thats the typical dealer markup. So don't put all the blame on the manufacturer...

No thanks

The new zhalou appears to be a pretty decent piece of gear from what I can see so far. I do wonder if they bothered to fix the dc offset issues though?

Yeah pretty much, Earl had mentioned there were a few new guys that might come but I don't think thats been confirmed.

Nice free food

Congrats, nice speakers. I'm predicting you won't be listening to your headphones for awhile . I know I havent picked up my headphones for 2+ weeks now

Yeah I'd also heard about this being the case, but I think at this point really the blu-ray camp has a pretty good lead over hd-dvd. They have far more content producer support and the PS3 should be a big boost for support of the format.

Yeah I think its pretty good, admittedly haven't listened to it with headphones yet but it sounds pretty awesome with my speaker rig.

Yep not very pricey though about $500 including shipping.

Nice thats quite cool of HeadRoom . I really doubt you could do any better for $500.

Did hell just freeze over ?

I like it better in black I think, also your pretty lucky that yours is on the way I know plenty of people that have been waiting a while for theirs to ship.

bleh peanut butter.. I do like those zebra cakes though

But you dont need to recable them, a simple retermination will do as the stock grado cable is two wires per channel.

Oh that reminds me Radii HAP-03 + HD600 is another very nice combo

Something like the older version of the ack dack would be great. Theres a couple on audiogon right now... http://cls.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?dgtlconv&1150639771 http://cls.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?dgtlconv&1150640378

Melos SHA-1 + any grado = good syngery

Why not just get the Max DAC for your amp?

Check your PM's

lan's video of the meet if anyone cares.... http://www.stainlesseternity.com/headfi_natlmeet_trailer.wmv

Any meet attendees interesting in hearing my speakers? Not a big deal to bring them along if so but I'm not planning to bring them so let me know.

What a total waste, I have no doubt whoever the buyer is that he A) has no common sense bought the ipod because its "cool" C) has way too much money

WOW I want one
