Yes, watch the mini series first! Oh man, I'm so excited for you, being able to watch the whole series for the first time. Its soooo good. 33 is a great episode as well. A bit jarringly short after coming from the 4 hour mini series, but you'll get into the episode flow. It is especially very nice not having to wait a week to watch the next episode, but just clicky click the DVD menu.

Is he looking in the mirror while he does this?

Yes, well over 50% of regular HC posters prefer the HP2. ur the lire now

One thing we at head-case are all pretty excited about this year is the HP-1000 room. Thats right, since the HP-1000 is such a popular phone amongst headcasers, we've establish a room to honor this revered phone. I'm in dakota somewhere setting up the room right now, here is a shot I took with my digital camera to whet your appetites while you all make your way here via airplane or car! The HP-2s will be hooked up to the finest sources we could buy on eBay at the last minute for $34 shipped.

bump, and a reminder to sign up for the 2007 headcase international meet. its being held somewhere in dakota i tihnk sine up k?

I think I mentioned this in another thread, but there is actually something very nice going on with the RS-1 + Melos, so long as I use flats. Still lacks the punchy impact the Slam brings, but there is a smooth naturalness without any bass bloat that is fun and pleasant to listen to.

Mitsui MAM-A Gold CDRs claims archival quality for 300 years. anyway its what I use, they are pretty.

Can you expand on this? What was the RS-1 recabled with, etc. Thanks for sharing your impressions.

well I'm working on some pics of myself running naked through a wild, green field; the long, soft blades of wind-hewn grass caressing my thighs and buttocks... ...but on this website we just talk about audio, right?

well, the right channel keeps going in and out. I think somewhere along the line I newbabused this cartridge to death. :'( need to decide what to do now. \

interesting. I'd like to see a shoot-out between that CDR and a MAM-A gold archival CDR.

uh-oh, i'd never looked at these before. are you kidding me? he's got neon on that bitch.

this is probably the most important thread on HC, at least in regards to the advancement of this hobby of ours. this is where the real hardcore headphone talk happens. hardcore like hardcore fukn in pr0n vidz. fukn internet rulez mann. but yeah, the search for better recordings is such a money hole, lol. its what made me get into vinyl recently. i might as well just withdraw all my savings and stuff it in the fireplace, analog bullshit... did I really think I could stop with the technics and bellari?

ha ha!

Welcome to headcase Shurado!

has anyone invited roam over here?

are you driving through vermont right now? how you get on the internet boy...

thanks for the recommendations, i'll check them out. yes, I suppose melancholy is the word I'm looking for. Sometimes melancholy rock music can come across as a touch emo, but melancholy classical always seems sincere. the schumann alternates between melancholy and quirky. i'm looking for more pure melancholy.

I've been listening to this Schumann Cello Concerto: and am looking for more like this, but maybe even sadder, with a greater sense of longing. It helps if there are lots of complex passages as well. Maybe just drop a few composers on me, and their specific pieces, and I'll hunt down the performances. obviously I'm a total classical amateur. so any help is appreciated.

bump, repriced for quick sale.

problem is these are the kind of cans you basically have to build your system around... its like you are married to the labtec house sound.

but before couch laying I'd like to eat some chicken, in either wrap or sandwich form.
