if he can use his mask powers to protect the gears from the smoke, yes this is fine. but we must have assurance that his mask powers will work as intended. we'll need to form an exploratory committee to look into the idea that jim carrey can use his mask powers to protect gear from tobacco smoke. Absorbine_Sr, I nominate you to head this committee.

hey man, most anything goes around here, but smoking around the components is NOT cool. take it outside next time.

mjg has also been banned for smoking cigarettes in the amplification forum.

no, it was the smoking. reks actually doesn't have ban power, he's really more of a figurehead, the "anti-jude" if it pleases the jury.

on the NEWS?! geez...

This thread has been reserved to explain why banned members have been banned. We are not like the bad head-fi that won't discuss why members were banned. Today, jpak was banned because he was caught smoking cigarettes in the amplification forum.

I hear the upcoming v-dock + iTouch will rival $1750 CD players.

1g shuffle, 512mb.

Good point. By the time someone "bottoms out" in whatever disorder they've got, the damage is usually already done to somebody who has no way of fighting back: children. I see this all the time in addiction. An addict doesn't always come out of an addict household, but more often then not an addict household breeds addicts. i love it.

i'm betting that the pair you listened to was NOT broken in and you are "mistaken" about what the dealer told you. how can you really know dude. also check your upstream, no doubt. werd. also: [me=postjack]is pleased that his plan to MoT all DIY is proceeding according to plan. what looked like a simple link to assist in a sale was actually a nefarious attempt to make it so all DIY people can't talk about DIY in the DIY forum since they are improving products and making the moolah off of them which is wrong.[/me]

speaking of pretty, nate is selling his woodied 325s.

:'( maybe I will!! and then I'll buy a B52 and run back to head-fi WHERE I AM FUCKING APPRECIATED!!!!!! :'(

if you've got the MFSL of Bob Marley's "Exodus", throw some flats on that MS2i and standard jammin'. These cans were made for reggae.

You mean getting Quads at half the MSRP is the FOTM. Nice impressions, I'm glad you enjoy them! If my impressions are like your I'll be a happy camper. Like I was saying in the other thread, I just want my first set of "audiophile" speakers to be unoffensive, meaning I don't want them to do anything glaringly wrong. also, pix with cardboard box please.

To Jacob: yes, I do like them quite a bit! I'm not so far removed from the HP-2 that I can't do somewhat of a comparison. Keep in mind these are based on just a couple hours of listening, but the MS2i is NOT the poor man's HP-2. The HP-2 really is in a class all by itself, and the MS2i does not share a similar signature. What the MS2i has going for it is amazing bass and great mids. On a couple tracks its lost control of the highs, but this control loss is nowhere near as shrill as the 325i (if my memory serves me, its been a while). I listened with bowls for a bit, and it sounded fantastic, but bowls bug me so I quickly switched to flats. The sound is not congested, but the soundstage is teeny tiny, as I've found is standard with SR series Grados. best part is still the bass. Strangely, their bass reminds me of the GS1K's bass, but nowhere near as superb. I sometimes find myself yearning for that visceral GS1K bass.

As to this, if I could respond with a picture of a shirt: the human brain is capable of amazing transformation. the cards one has been dealt do not necessarily a person make.

reks, do you need a two week time out? I've been locking threads, I'll give you a time out if need be! I have the powah!

Just got in the MS2i today. Its a great looking phone. Happy Family! W5000 not pictured, is asleep in flight case

geez, i've been so foolish. I need to get a bluray player to play my vinyl, sorry for attacking you there. :'( btw I will be getting up with you in the next few months for a balanced cable.

where do you put the record in this setup?

x2 on the other topic, addiction can be anything that makes one's life unmanageable.

i thought you were going all vinyl!! now i can't buy a balanced senn cable from you. > digital denier!

i got on a power trip earlier and locked it for no reason.
