True Blood
yeah, I shouldn't have lambasted it so badly, it was kind of rude of me to do so. It is a good show and I like it a lot. I just find certain elements to be overwhelmingly ridiculous. For example vampirism symbolizing homosexuality is hilarious and absurd. EDIT: by the way, why don't I have a demeaning nick name anymore?

True Blood
Now that you mention it, I can see parallels in the humor of both series'. I also see a little bit of buffy's humor as well. The yatzee scene seemed like it could have come straight out of buffy.

I really liked six feet under particularly seasons 3 and 4.

True Blood
It's best if you don't take this show seriously. Of my friends that like this show like it because it's so insanely bad. It's like watching a train wreck of decision making with and ludicrous newagey bullshit. It often time surprises us with how funny it can be at poking fun at itself which is it's redeeming feature. Spoilers: highlight here godrik dying for vampire's sin for god's sake?!?!

I just had my blood drawn at the doctor's office and he came back with grave news. It seems that my internet meme count is dangerously low. I'm going to need a lot more chimps watching magic if I'm going to get through this.

Dampening the back of a Grado driver?
While I was in the hospital I had the doctor haruspicate using my bowels, there is a perfectly good reason why I had them removed.

that probably means I won't notice it either then. I have pretty mediocre hearing even for a wannabe audiophile.

Dampening the back of a Grado driver?
I've been thinking about opening the earcups of the MS1i and dampening the back of the drivers like Grado does with it's higher end cans presumably to eliminate any resonance that might occur in the metal back that houses the magnet. The only thing is that I'm not to sure what material I should use. Does anybody here have any experience with doing anything like this? If not I'll probably just use a little bit of silicon gel.

has anybody heard the MS1i?
I'm a very innocent speller.

has anybody heard the MS1i?
Perhaps but that doesn't exist here. I only know hipsters that don't believe that they're hipsters.

has anybody heard the MS1i?
I don't have bowels anylonger. I did the quarter mod on the comfies which helped a bit to take away that muffled sound. I may order a pair of bowels. I still have C-pads which I kind of like for some types of music. Oh and by the way I am a reluctant hipster (but is there any type of hipster but the reluctant type?). Part of it is living in Olympia Washington which is a hipster magnet. Everyone is either a hipster or some other type of retard here.

can I have a "welcom" PM?
Thanks Grawk. That's actually a pretty fair warning and welcome.

has anybody heard the MS1i?
oh, interesting. I didn't know that the ms2i was revamped again. I believe that the ms2i was released just after the sr325i. I'm listening to pavement's crooked rain currently and I'm surprised at how subdued the high end is. Cymbal crash and snare recedes below the vocals. The kick has a nice pop--the texture of hammer hitting the drum is nice and tactile. This is one of my favorite qualities that all the grados I've owned posses in a greater or lesser degree. The midrage has quite a bit of presence but isn't that satisfying. It's not particularly clear. I hope this is something that burn in will rectify but I'm not holding my breath. EDIT: the recessed treble may have been a quality in the pavement album. I'm now listening to neutral milk hotel and the sound of the guitar pick clicking against the strings feels about right.

god, sorry about that typo. I recieved the MS1i not the ms2i.
-
has anybody heard the MS1i?
Woot, the ms1i came today. I haven't had a chance to do much listening to it yet but so far it's not bad. Way better than it's sr125 counterpart in terms of tonal accuracy, but its still a grado and not very accurate. It also lacks the bass punch of my old MS2i--other than that they are very similar headphones.
