Ruth's Chris is a bit pricey and the staff out this way in LA County are pretty rude. http://www.sizzlingsteak.com/virginiabeach/p/VB%20Dinner%201007.pdf Though the menue is for a Virginia Beach location, prices are comporable to LA, if not a little cheaper than LA's.

This hasn't been my experience at all. I have been very happy with my W1000s. I find the bass control and detail to be very very good. I listen occasionally to full orchestral music though I prefer smaller jazz trio/quartet CDs. I have been listening to Bach's cellos suites lately, one a Janos Starker Mercury remaster and another a MA Recordings of the six Suites. Both recordings I found the W1000s to show excellent pace, detail and control of the cello notes. You may need to attend a meet where the W1000s are present because it seems for some reason with these cans the opinions cover the spectrum. Perhaps the source may have an influence on the perceived signature. FWIW I auditions JP#'s AD 2000's at the So Cal meet and found them excellent as well.

Have you tried the UE Triple Fis? I must be be a little off as well because my impressions of the ER4s seem to mirror yours. I threw my ER4s in a drawer when I picked up the Triple Fis and have never looked back. Everything the ER4s were lacking, and there were more than a few for my tastes, I found the Triple Fis delivered. Controlled bass, detailed mids, and voices that were both natural and accurate.

Now if she lives on the eastern edge of LA County I know of some great Dim Sum restaurants in Monterey Park. That of course would mean lunch/brunch but the dishes are tasty, authentic and none of the staff speaks english. Your $100 gift certificate would go for a good three lunches, now that is authentic. Is she a foody with music kind of person? That opens up a whole different group of restaurants but limits the location choices.

Nate, what are the objectives we are shooting for? Atmosphere, cuisine, people watching, wine list, bragging rites? What types of cuisine is she OK with or partial to? Mexican, Spanish, Argentine, Chinese or Italian? How about some general geographical preferences, I know of some great restaurants in Ventura County that will fit your needs.

Or a nasty letter from an angry lawyer. It is disheartening to see members of a forum cheating other members, I view participating forum members as more trustworthy than your average web store. I hope this UWisconsin person comes around.

I miss the Austria connection but having lived in Tyrol Austria I am a big fan of anything Austrian. FWIW

Good luck and well done all around. The amp looks sweet.

Sweet snag. Question, did the 1,000 rounds of amo you recently purchased have anything to do with this?

Happy Birthday!

Happy Happy Birthday Salty!!

I hope I am long gone from this planet if this ever makes it to the elevator music genere.

Yes, it does look very nice, and the good thing is now you will have more room to accomodate your gear.

I think it is time for you to get a new amp and forget about such nonsense.

Oooowwww! My eyes, they're burning!!!

Happy Birthday Jay.

LFF is a Google!!!!!

Who is back home??? Voltran? I didn't know he left.

Happy Birthday JP!

I suggest that you try using your HeadCase decoder ring.

Ahh forget those places- I reco Marques Casa Concha Merlot, Navarro Correas Coleccion Privada Merlot Anything from Justin Vineyards that is in your price range, I think Justification or their basic Cabernet Sauvignon meets your price point. Enjoy!

Welcome home Naaman! Thank you for all that you have done and enjoy the , er stuff. Be sure to post impressions of the ........er stuff.

Oh Nooooooo! Happy Birthday Beeeeelllllleeeee!
