Apple subcontracted ALO for this and got a great deal.

We have a Sun Conure whose official name is Sunny. However, we just call him "Bird-bird" now. Also, "Cha-cha" in English is pronounced with a hard "ch" sound, so it sounds a lot different than "Chat-chat" (soft ch) does. What? You're not going to even consider "Adolf"?

Then I'll definitely need to mold with my mouth open if I ever get custom IEMs.

I think this would be appropriate:

Guitar great Les Paul is dead at 94. Huge loss. RIP Les.

I doubt he is trying to get rich on it. Tapes are $300/album, so by definition the market will be small.

The adjustment mechanism is such that the proportion of the width of your head to the distance between your ears and the top of your head is a constant. So if you fit the magic proportion, the headphones will fit. For me, I'd have to put a sponge or pad as there was about 1/4" - 1/2" gap between my head and the band when I held the cups where they belong over my ears.

Thanks for your concern. I'm almost completely OK. I finally got back into shape enough to be able to do push ups again. But there is pain in the shoulder. I'll get the MRI that you suggest.

Hey Antonio. The notes I read were part of the tape from The Tape Project. This is another Dan Schmalle (Doc Bottlehead) enterprise. I just assumed that the CD had the same thing in miniature format. BTW, Bottlehead's rebuilt and modified Nagra tape player was by far the best source at the meet. I asked Dan how much it was worth. He really didn't know but guessed at $15K.

I talked to Sankar at the meet. The automatic adjustment method that is currently being used doesn't work on my head. He responded that a lot of people were having that problem and that they were going to make there own frame for the next release. Caveat: My memory isn't very good anymore. This is what I remember but could easily be incorrect.

I agree with that. While a couple of my ribs and right shoulder blade are still still a little tender, by far the largest pain I have from my Feb crash is soft tissue damage in my left shoulder. I'd been trying to figure it out as I hit the ground on my right side. Recently I think I've figured it out. By moving my arm around to see what positions caused the most pain, I figure that my arm must have been slung up and behind my head when I hit. Hopefully this will eventually heal. I'm definitely at the age where I don't heal as well or as quickly as I did when I was young.

Good news Al. A fractured fibula is nothing compared to torn ligaments. Hopefully that's the correct diagnosis. I'm surprised that he didn't notice a broken fibula on the x-ray. It looks great. I need to make one. Are those neoprene washers I see on the top shelf? If so, can you please tell me where you got them?

With PK2s out of my laptop, I could hear sound at 1, 5 and 10 HZ. However, it wasn't until 15 Hz that it sounded like a bass tone. I heard nothing at those frequencies with the laptop speakers, hardly a surprise.

The truth hurts.

Moar tubez.

Sieg Heil.

That's OK, you can sell it to Dinny and buy something new.

Look for used SP Platinum Extreme for no more than $500. Be sure to get pictures of its insides to verify its condition. Don't even think about getting anything but a Platinum Extreme. Though in your shoes I'd take Dan's (grawk) advice. Edit: You also might want to take a look at the new Laconic amp that Craig Uthus (www.eddiecurrent.com) had at the recent NorCal meet.

Happy Birthday Tyll! :prettyprincess: I hope that you got to spend it out on your motorcycle.

When I first got into headphones in 2006, I first bought Westone UM2s. I figured that this would be my do all (and only) headphone. It didn't work out like that. While I like the SQ of the UM2s, I hated wearing IEMs. Now I only use them for flying. So they are definitely good enough for me. Somebody mentioned (I think it was JP#s) that JH would remold a pair for $200. If that's the case, they'd have considerably more than $0 resale value.

If you don't like it now, it's unlikely that you'll love it after burn-in. On the plus side, you'll be able to sell it for $600.

Why? Just tell her that you'll go to the concert to avoid disturbing her sleep before such an important run. "I'm doing it for you, honey".

I think that this meet was bigger. So that would make it a mega-mini-mega meet.
