Tell us how it is. I have to say the booklet inside the "Frozen Sea" LP boxed set was wonderful. Something about listening to the early Sigur Ros LPs and reading the story of their Iceland tour, complete with photographs in muted colors, was a stirring emotional experience. There is one picture/quote inside the book that I absolutely loved, I've been meaning to snap a photo of it to share with you all. I'll do that when I get home tonight.

that actually gave me a chuckle. here's a joke: If you goto a bakery, and they try to sell you day old baked goods, tell em 'what the fuck is this shit, just throw it out!'

luckily the local symphony is doing Rachmaninoff's second piano concerto. Fun Valentine's date for me.

I SAID FORGIVE IT!!!

[MOVE]DON'T MIND IF AH DO!!!

pumpkin spice spice latte at harbucks. i've been drinking these for a couple months, and i can't stop. they took them off the menu, but the dude at harbucks says they have a ton of syrup in the back, and I'm the only one who drinks it. hopefully i'll have plenty of p-spice to get me through the cold rainy south alabama winter. because no p-spice and cold winter make postjack something something.

forgive the ignorant question, but is an m^3 the same as a mini^3?

What I have is a bone stock foobar with the APE plugin/DLL file. I also have lame.exe somewhere on my HD (for MP3 conversions). When I want to convert say a directory full of APE files, I just add that directory to the playlist. Then I select them all, right click, and there is a "convert to..." selection. In there is MP3, or WAV, or what-have-you. Choose a destination directory and foobar goes to work. This is very useful for converting FLAC to MP3. I keep my entire ripped music collection in FLAC on one harddrive, and MP3 on another (for use on the Shuffle and future iPhone). So I rip all my CDs in EAC to FLAC and put them in my "Music 2" directory. About once a month or so I dump the entire "Music 2" directory into the foobar playlist, and convert then all to 256kbps VBR LAME MP3, which I put in a temp directory called "asston of mp3s". Then I add those MP3s to my iTunes library (I have the box checked to automatically copy and organize MP3s added to the library). Then I delete all the MP3s out of the "asston of mp3s" directory, and move all the FLACs from the "Music 2" directory into my "Music 1" directory. Then the process begins again! Its a tidy system, I'm quite pleased with it.

9 if you count the one that just got sold on HF.

I'm pretty sure the HF-1 stays. Haj, if I decide to sell the serial numberless RS-1, I'll let you know.

yup, i know a girl who does this. but its cool because then i have cool pictures of me.

To give less of a vague answer, yes I do. I won't for long though. After I've done my comparison I'm sure the two losers will be sold. The scary thing is how good the HF-1 is. I can't believe this can retailed for $199. Blows the SR225 out of the headphone sea.

do you own three pairs of RS-1's?

great thread.

This is good news, thank you for sharing.

Come Thursday, I'll be able to offer a comparison between a buttonless pair and a previous generation serial #3279. Once I get my darker wood, serial numberless pair back, I'll be able to compare that one as well. There is a lot of murmuring that the new buttonless pair more resembles an older rs-1 or an ms-pro sonically, but nobody has said this who I can really trust. But I know I can trust me. The #3279 is recabled with apuresound V3, so the comparison won't be totally pure.

the W5000 is a cool headphone. it does lack bass though, which is why I eventually gave up on it. but the best imaging and soundstage I've heard in a closed can. hell, better then most open cans. but pj has to have some body in his music, and that means bass.

foobar is actually super easy for file conversions. Its free and fast. I use winamp to play my music, but I use foobar to do all my ape -> wav & flac -> mp3 conversions. I do use dbPoweramp for my flac -> wav conversions (when compiling a cue sheet to burn in EAC), its integration in the right click menu in windows explorer is very convenient.

tons, but this always springs to mind. Phish 03/01/2003 Greensboro, NC encore: first tube > yem > proud mary (acapella, last performed 12/2/83, not performed in last 1133 shows)

That is unfortunate. I'm a huge Matthews/Russert/Brokaw fan, and they're all on MSNBC. As far as improvements over Dubya, pretty much any of them would be, except for Romney, Huckabee, Thompson, and Edwards. (I threw in a democrat to be fair and balanced, like fox news )

my interests include bagels with cream cheese, buying/washing/collecting my vinyl LP records, SFF books, and sitting.

If you are interested in checking out an older band that has a similar sound, you might be interested in Soft Machine. Their album "3" is a mess of a recording.
