This is so well stated that I make a motion to include the above language in the welcome PM.

That was in response to my complaint. It was night to night before.

The landlord responded right away. Courtney must be his niece or daughter. The listing has now been revised to comply with the City ordinance against short-term rentals. It is as good a resolution as I can hope for so I am happy.

Pretty PO'ed right now. So the apartment next to mine had been vacant for most of 2015 after my former neighbor passed away last year. Around November, I noticed that furniture and decorations had been placed in the apartment, but my new neighbor was nowhere to be found. Its now almost February and I have still not yet met my new next door neighbor, but I have noticed that occasionally when I walk past the neighboring apartment there are random people sitting in it on the weekends. I did some research and I found that the apartment next to mine is listed on AirBnB.https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/10156284?checkin=02%2F03%2F2016&checkout=02%2F04%2F2016&s=EIBTtAXgI'm really furious. I've only seen this "Courtney" girl once, and that was weeks ago. Everyone else has been the renters. If I wanted to live next to a hotel I would have chosen an apartment next to a hotel. FML. Thankfully, the law is on my side. Short-term rentals less than 30 days are illegal in the City of Sausalito. As "Courtney" isn't around to talk to, I sent an email to my landlord letting them know the situation. Hopefully they do something about it, because if I can't get hold of the landlord or "Courtney" by early next week I'm going to the city development department.

TTVJ loaner arrived today. I busted her out to try with the office rig. I'm looking forward to bringing her home for more critical listening.

Being able to deposit checks using a smartphone app and camera is one of the great innovations of the 21st century.

I agree with Craig that 88 is a damn good run.

RIP Marvin Minsky. Great thinker, teacher, author, and AI pioneer.

Happy late birthday!

I'll be looking forward to hearing your impressions after you've had some time to live with them for a while. Also I'd love to hear which of your amps you like best with them.

Got an email form TTVJ saying that Senn. pushed back the date on the 800S till mid February. Time to hurry up and wait.

Thanks again, everyone. Had a great birthday dinner with friends and family last night at a local sushi joint. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Thanks, everyone! Starting to feel old here!

Thats probably what my $2k is going to pay for. A Project Cars rig for the Obama girls.

Got W-2s at work today. An early birthday present from President Obama. Punched it in to turbotax and it looks like I owe close to two grand. Thats less than I budgeted for, but it leaves an unwanted dent in my savings for a house down-payment.

Goddammit, Colin. I don't see a racing wheel in that picture. What gives?

I will try and take some better pics, and yeah, I also hate the look of the TRS jack on the front. I have that same crappy TRS jack on my Crack 2 and I am not a fan. The Pass stuff has also never been a particularly great value buy. It has that dealer premium built in. The used prices are pretty reasonable though. IMO the SuSy Dynalo is one heck of a performer so the Pass will have to be pretty great to best it.

Yeah, its the SuSy. I have @gepardcv's build on extended loan.

RIP Glenn Frey of the Eagles... man this has been a rough couple of weeks.

Todd the Vinyl Junkie just announced a loaner program for this over at HF and I'm happy to be the first on the list. I'm very much looking forward to listening to the first Pass Labs product dedicated to headphones. I've got the Dynalo mk2 and Crack 2 in house to compare with and I'll be bringing the amp with me to the January 30 HF meet in San Jose if anyone else in the Bay Area cares for a listen. Some pics from Tyll:

That Arizona-Green Bay game was the first NFL game I watched this season. Amazing! One hell of an ending!

Happy Birthday to the terror of the virtual streets.

I agree that they are a very nice headphone. If there were priced at the $1,699 price point of the HD800S I'd have to give them more serious consideration. I suspect a decent number of people who own them got them for less than MSRP. The current $3k MSRP is just way too high an ask when you can get 009s for nearly the same price.
