  1. does kef use metal woofers? nice looking.
  2. that song is so punk rock. more punk then the MC5 anyway.
  3. I run straight from the phono to the 840a integrated. No pre, no line stage.
  4. I never really did a proper comparison, but I vastly prefer the sut + seduction combo simply because the bugle set on high gain let's off about a pound of hiss. And even then it doesn't quite have enough gain to really get the volume cranked up. Having said that, it is obvious that the bugle sounds great from top to bottom, with better bass then I would expect from battery power. Still it can't match the overall ease of the sut + seduction. What I'd like to do is get the bugle set back to normal gain and run it with the sut to do a direct phono stage only comparison.
  5. Artist: RA Album: 29 Song: 29 "Most of my friends are married and making them babies, To most of them I already died, And whatever it is about you I've always hated, Is something about myself I just couldn't hide."
  6. i love mah quads. i was just listening to the recent reissue of Joy Division's "Closer" on vinyl and loving the synergy in my system: Denon DL-103 > Technics SL1200MK2 > Cinemag SUT > Bottlehead Seduction > Cambridge Audio 840A > Nato Crisp Canare Speaker Cablez > Quad 22L it just sounds lovely. not super detailed or perfect by any means, but drums do crack perfectly, and strangely cymbals sound more realistic and live then in any other setup I've listened to. The DL-103 digs every last bit of bass out of that record, which I love. The Cinemag SUT polished off the DL-103's glary lower highs perfectly, so now vocals just soar from the midrange all the way into the highs with ease and beauty. I've always thought the Quad 22L and 840A go very well together; the 22Ls are certainly never wanting for power. Anyway, my summer project is to clean out the extra bedroom and move my whole setup in there so these speakers can have some room to breathe.

    So do I really need a DAC? Doesn't my soundcard already have one???
  12. Hook me up, I'm registered now under postjack.
  13. I fucked up the above post, the year is 2008 and I forgot to erase the duplicate text below the pictures. Ministry "C U Latour" (with Meshuggah and Hemlock) 4-19-2008 New Orleans, LA House Of Blues Hemlock sucked, Meshuggah was absolutely amazing. Their timing was absolutely perfect. I loved the crowd, because you had your meatheads with your tall nerdy math rock guys and your goth chicks. I didn't know Meshuggah had two bassists, it really added body to the sound. I stood next to the guy at the light board, and he had to have the same perfect rhythm as the band. Incredible. That drummer has to be the most talented metal drummer I've ever seen. In a word, Ministry was relentless. Insane lighting, and insane projected imagery behind the stage. Al's antler crucifix mic stand with a vagina on the microphone was badass. He came out like a true god of industrial music, with his top hat and sunglasses and black and chains. No setlist, but the opener was "Lets Go" which was fucking awesome. Every song before the encore was off the last three albums, which was kickass because the last three albums are intense. Al hates George W. Bush. They really turned it out in the encore, with some guy from Fear Factory on vocals: So What > Thieves > NWO > Just One Fix. Then they came out with a second encore, two covers from the Doors and Stones, respectively: Roadhouse Blues, Under My Thumb. Strangely a bunch of black and white Ministry balloons fell on the crowd during "Thumb". It was fun as all hell. New Orleans is super sketchy now, much different then pre-Katrina. When we were trying to get on the interstate, a suburban with tinted windows came peeling around us at about 80mph, swerved in and out of the lanes, then stopped in the middle of the two lanes in front of us. I thought for one second we were about to get murdered. But we didn't!
  14. my black celebration vinyl is gray?
  15. Widespread Panic 4-18-06 Orange Beach, AL The Wharf I: Wonderin' > Walkin', Tickle the Truth, Greta > Jam > Xmas Katie, Action Man, Old Joe, Flicker > Conrad the Caterpillar II: Good People, Stop-Go > You Got Yours, Aunt Avis, You Should Be Glad, Airplane*, Drums > Drums & Bass > Drums & Bass & Guitars > Jam > Proving Ground > Life During Wartime E: Ain't No Use > Blackout Blues * - started raining just before the line "sittin' around watchin the rain fall / i don't know how it could rain so long" their flow wasn't always perfect, but overall a well played showed and a great setlist, sans "Tickle The Truth" which is an OK song but poorly placed after the intense one two punch of wonderin > walkin. loved the Old Joe since I'd never had one before, same with Aunt Avis, which was particularly cool since I am a big Vic Chesnutt fan. And any set with both a "You Got Yours" and "You Should Be Glad" is OK with me. about to back a bag and head to pickup the girlfriend for a trip to New Orleans for Ministry and Meshuggah, then back to OB on Sunday for more Panic. I am absolutely in love with my life in this weekend. shoddy iphone pics: their flow wasn't always perfect, but overall a well played showed and a great setlist, sans "Tickle The Truth" which is an OK song but poorly placed after the intense one two punch of wonderin > walkin. loved the Old Joe since I'd never had one before, same with Aunt Avis, which was particularly cool since I am a big Vic Chesnutt fan.

  16. this is wonderful news. The LPs were just too expensive. While these digital versions still aren't cheap, $20 off is nice! I'll probably end up buying them all. Makes me want a hi-rez player again.
  17. 3 days maybe? Liquor, Ritalin, and a trip to six flags.
  18. all excellent points, but allow me to defend my preference for the dinner party episode. To this date, I think it is the most tension-filled episode I've ever seen, which means I laughed the entire time, finally culminating in a huge, wonderful, "thats what she said". I concur that it was over the top, maybe I was just in the mood for over the top after so long without a new office.
  19. good episode tonight, not great IMO. the dinner party was much better.
  20. flats is the only way with the rs-1. every positive comment I ever make about the rs-1 assumes flats. if you want soundstage buy speakers.
