No one needs to know about your masturbation habits.

I read somewhere that you get your jollies from getting teabagged by your dad. Is it true that your mom also like being teabagged?

Take him on a sidetrip to Thailand and pimp him out for some dough.

Because back in 1988, I fucked your mom so good that she didn't want to have sex for the next few years.

Just made a couple needle drops of my own for shits & giggles, it's probably my crappy Creative SB Live soundcard that's killing things but man is there ever a big difference between the original and the recording. These are used records I picked up from garage sales, flea markets, and public libraries. Setup is Dual 721 turntable with Shure V15-III cartridge --> Technics SA-5270 receiver --> Creative SB Live The Nylons - Love Potion #9 http://rapidshare.de/files/38570506/lp9.wav.html R.E.M. - Fall On Me http://rapidshare.de/files/38570546/fall.wav.html

If I see one more "show your love with diamonds" commercial I'm going to puke. Because the giving of shiny rocks which were mined with slave labour in 3rd world shithole countries by companies which make Halliburton look saintly is a true show of love.

What's the setup that you're using for the needle drop? Comments: The bass is ok, but frankly, everything else sucks. It sounds very flat, no depth, crappy tone, really muffled mids & highs. I hate to say it but it sounds more like AM radio than anything else.

I have. R10's don't have enough bass, plus they sound like ass when I want to play metal, like Manowar or Cradle of Filth. I thereby conclude that R10's suck. The K340 doesn't suck nearly as much with metal, but it still can't rock out like my Grado 225 or RS-1. Rocking out rules.

I remember some retarded assclown on HF claiming that the K701 doesn't open up until the 2000 hour mark, that's right, two thousand fucking hours. I still think the K701 is highly overrated to say the least, and I'd take a Grado SR60 over them any day, nevermind my 225 or RS-1. It's been a while since I wrote that review, and my opinion of them has only gotten worse.

Maybe he meant Shaded Dog RCA...

This clearly explains why a Senn 650 which has a 10' cable has more bass than my Grados which have 6.5' cables. It's so obvious now that I think of it.

Gary Pimm is somewhere in the north-west as well, he's got some really cool stuff. Wright Sound is also in that area somewhere, and there's others with high-end gear from what I've seen on diyaudio. You just gotta network and find the people with all the cool gear.

My stuff mid-fi at best, I'm just lucky in that there's a bunch of friendly audiophiles & high-end stores in my area so I can get a taste of the good stuff every once in a while. I get to live the high life for a half day or so every month.

Bio cellulose drivers...hmmm...I wonder how long it'll be until people start pulling out the drivers and putting them in wooden housings to make a poor man's R10?

Anyone who listens to music as loud as Ray does would be mostly deaf by the time they're his age.

Clearly a non-Canadian who had his brain frozen into mush by our cold winters. Or maybe he was just born stupid.

Football is where they play a one hour "game" so that they can show 3 hours of commercials, and most of that hour consists of men huddled in a circle or lined up on the field doing nothing.

Masturbation.

Parts cost alone is probably in the $5-7k range with all those transformers & chokes, add in the labour to build it by hand and the final cost is likely going to break 5 figures. As far as I can tell, the amp is quality gear and worth it. Anyways, impressions of the reel to reel tape system!

Well, given that a balanced Dynahi or ?22 is fairly close to that level of power output, I don't see why not. Plus the tubes are big and look cool, and from what I've read on diyaudio the performance is pretty good too.

At least it isn't as painful as Ori's page, but that's the only positive thing I can say about it.

If it fall over when you let it go, it's not balanced.

I've pretty much accepted the fact that I can't write reviews for beans, I worked on a Senn 580 vs. Grado 225 review on & off for around 2 years before giving up and putting it away. Impressions, no problem, I can crank those out in an hour or two at most but I have issues with long term reviews, I just don't know what the hell to put in them without making it sound like the pretentious garbage found in Stereophile or TAS.

I saw a blurb on the player some time ago on this page, and there are conflicting opinions. It might be a breakthrough or it could just be a glorified overpriced computer, personally I lean more towards the latter given all the marketing fluff on the Nova Physics webpage. For the price it's going for, I'd rather just get a Simaudio Andromeda and be done with it.

I believe this is something the DHS would like to know about. Buy a 'stat, or else a couple guys in black suits with no sense of humour will be along to escort you to the Hotel Gitmo.
