  1. happy birthday din!
  2. Are you sure it was Magnepan that put them out of business? I was under the impression the speakers didn't sell well due to the outrageous amp requirements, and with far fewer choices in high power solid state back then thus spelling death to the company. I don't Haj, the image came up randomly in the Audiogon staff pics cool images.

    Have you noticed the clubfoot disappears when they start running? I think it's an act to look slower than they really are. Fools those silly humans.
  4. A nice Hendrix oil painting for the listening room, 23x23" and on gallery wrapped canvas so it doesn't need a frame

    How is higher order zombie cortical function maintained if their heart isn't pumping blood to their brain, are their brains exploiting some other form of metabolic activity other than through the use of oxygen? The brain is still clearly their weak spot, so it is controlling some autonomic life functions Could one head control a zombie through their eye sockets or would a zombie simply laugh at such a human like tactic? Can a zombie laugh, if so what comedy program do they enjoy
  6. Thanks Marc and jp. I suppose there is a strong desire simply for some change right now. The SL-1200 is a good work horse, but it is a clear bottleneck in my system. "It's hard to really characterize the differences though, where when I compare to direct drive setups for example it's an obvious across the board improvement" Marc is this a Technics SP10 Mk2/3?
  7. Heh I have a friend that won't wear a helmet any time. His reasoning- "I'd rather be dead than be a paraplegic if I'm in an accident" [sic]. I'm pretty sure he doesn't wear a helmet so he can be cool, I rarely see the Harley crowd wearing them here. More sport bike users have them on. He's a redneck
  8. Heh it was a Koenigsegg that was way under reporting past 200 mph on one show. A regular speedo is going off tire rotations so they can't be expected to be accurate at really high speed.
  9. I think the regular speedos are usually quite off in cars as well at really high speeds. The no helmet law in NH is utterly mental. Same with the seatbelts aren't required over 18.
  10. Speakers made from plumbing fixtures!
  11. I'm going to throw this out there in the hopes someone might know something. I have been sitting on a few Lencos for a while and from everything I have been reading a lot of work needs to be done to them before they are elevated to the level of truly top tier. At the moment I lack the skills and equipment to even think about starting this project and the modders are all fairly boutique with boutique prices to boot. My local group enablers are telling me to get a Garrard 301, which will be much more plug and play plinth wise compared to a Lenco. What do you guys think? It seems the 301s are now in the $2000 range, but I haven't bought any source gear in a while so I could splurge for one assuming the previous info was true.
  12. Thanks Nate I do appreciate the additional information and value your opinion highly on the matter. I still feel they are owed some time to see if they do come out with new amps or DACs. FWIW to my knowledge I've never bought anything from Headroom or owned Headroom equipment. I only remember they were up there with Headamp in the recommendations they used to receive around here.
  13. It's a bit perplexing reading about all the negativity over Headroom. I understand Tyll isn't there any more, but how about giving them a chance before jumping to conclusions? Mentioning SinglePower in the same sentence is simply insulting. Headroom didn't take his money and then not send anything. No charge was made; a far cry from what Mikhail was doing. As for them not being innovators, do you think the economy could be playing a certain role in this? Is it wise to be spending money on developing new products if sales are destined to be dismal?
  14. Let me guess you nerds have some super special pencil sharpeners too
  15. Me likey gel pens.
  16. See you in the playoffs Dinny FML for not playing Hillis.

    I agree this show rocks. Making it even more painful that there are only 4 more episodes this season :'(
  18. Yikes I tried to grab the Pats D this week, but since I'm so low on the waiver order you got them. I missed the game but WTF happened
  19. Jets losing to Lions and Pats lose to the Browns WAT Dinny you have an elite team for someone who missed the draft
  20. Are normal bias Sigmas really $800-900 now? I remember them selling for $400-600 not too long ago.
  21. PS-1 imo. I would buy a pair at the original price, best youner G mids and bass.
  22. 45 rpm
  23. Sony nimh rechargables and paid to get my passport replaced also moar vinyl
