  1. I've also talked to Tyll about his ideas and I think they are great personally. I am sorry that Jude took this stance on it.
  2. I think if I get another headphone ever, it will probably be a pair of MANUFAKTUR 600 ohm DT990's. They sound like something I would enjoy.

    I figured as much. I wasn't really meaning that you were overcharging your customers... more that this stuff shouldn't cost that much. WOW I knew Black Gates were expensive... but that is insane.

    The silver wiring upgrade is insanely high priced. I'm not sure how many BlackGates are in there, but $650 seems a little overboard. I don't really have any issue with the base price as Justin does do great work. As for the jacks... if the upgrade costs that much, whoever is supplying the jacks is absolutely reaming people on them.
  5. True enough. The point is that many 'skinny' people don't take care of themselves [i know I don't] and many 'fat' people are actually in better physical condition. Obviously some people do fit the stereotype of 'fat unhealthy' or 'skinny in shape', but not all. Actually, thinking about all the 'skinny' people I know, hardly any of them are in good shape or eat healthy. And this is better than being a 'health site' sponsored by a drug company? Well, yeah... that is pretty obvious.
  6. I thought that some of you may find this interesting. I myself had always tied diabetes and heart problems with obesity, but it seems that this may be another myth perpetuated by the comercial sector. http://www.bigfatfacts.com/

    This is really too hard, but if I had to it would be as follows: Massive Attack - Blue Lines DJ Spooky - Dubtometry Tori Amos - From the Choirgirl Hotel Iron & Wine - Our Endless Numbered Days Ulrich Schnauss - A Strangely Isolated Place
  8. Ummmm... yeah, it was a joke.
  9. Which hand is named Tim? What's the other one's name?
  10. Listen, we are not ALLOWED to bitch over there. If you don't like it stay out of those threads.
  11. My condolences... I can't imagine loosing one of my little buddies.
  12. I've got a Charlize on the way which I will power with a new 12amp Pyramid Gold PSU I recently acquired. I will be using the PSU for the Sol Headphone Amp [MOSFET] that I traded off of looser101 as well, which will be setup as a pre/headphone amp and feed the Charlize/Polk Speakers in my computer setup. Next time you come over you will have to give it a listen and see if it is tolerable.
  13. The only opinion that matters is your own and to a lesser extent, your Wife's. That said, I find that aerius and I generally arrive at the same conclusions... regardless of how we get there. Also, thought it might not be exactly PC, I tend to accept opinions from folks with good gear more readily than someone who has crap [by my estimation].
  14. You could get mister x to build you a nice gainclone.
  15. That's not a knock off. If you read information on the website you linked, it is an upgraded/tweaked Stello.
  16. Crap... I forgot about those. I should sell those.
