I'm just not a playa.

Exactly. If you're going to be taking a placebo, at least go yummy.

Unless the last thing you bought was three weeks ago. Fitz -- I joined a band, was told (beforehand) that, "...all they need to do is see you play, and you'll have lots of groupies". I played, lots of people saw me, was even good. No groupies. So, yes, you can have them, but no guarantee.

Yes, you did. Good boy. (gives Nenso a Smartie)

It's like this -- if two competing vendors sell the same product, then by all means, love in. But if two competing vendors, one of which is Sudafed, and the other of which is a placebo, wouldn't you want the people who are buying the placebo to know that they would be just as well off buying Smarties?

Hey, do you think you could download that image and rehost it here as an attachment? Anyone who isn't logged in over there can't see it.

That page brings up an issue that has been bothering me -- I may just have to get the AT stand. When I hang my headphones freely (including the Leatherheads, and others that have rather nice pads), they touch towards the bottom. The AT stand appears to solve this for most headphones, but as the pictures show, does not for the Leatherheads. Anyone have any recommendations?

Just get both.

Is that...Beef Jerky made in China, or Jerky made out of Chinese Beef? Never mind, rhetorical question

Dude, it's over. Blu-Ray won. The only question is, whether or not it will survive at all (cf. SACD vs. DVD-Audio, both of which are firmly in "niche" territory, if not "deathwatch").

Not KFP?

I'm not sure if egg-shape falls to my same criticism, though. In fact, I'm pretty sure it doesn't. Imagine being on an egg surface on the inside -- if you look straight across, there are only a couple of places where you're actually looking at a parallel surface (top, bottom, "equator"). Also, one resonance is easier to deal with than three. So it's not like it's a fatal flaw to go with that particular enclosure shape. I'm not sure your first statement makes sense. A dynamic driver has rear dispersion as well as forward dispersion as well, and is figure-8-ish in shape as well. The only difference (and I won't pretend to know more about this than I do, which is well nigh naught) may be that ESL drivers handle back-EMF differently than dynamic drivers do, which I suspect is the case. As to whether that's "better" or "worse", I don't know. But either way, you still have to worry about the signal reflecting and interfering with the forward signal and causing comb filtering, so I certainly agree with your conclusion.

And on an unrelated note -- a sphere, though less "boxy" than a box, still has a resonance. If it's more of an egg shape, then less so, but if it's truly spherical inside, it's like every side has a parallel surface. A pyramid would be better.

Yeah, well after your explanation, I picture more of a multifaceted thing more than a true hemisphere.

That's hot.

I've actually heard from an actress that it's fun to play the villainess, you can just sort of let yourself go (stage production of 101 Dalmations; she played Cruella De Vil). That said, from interview tidbits I've been reading here and there, it sounds like he was jumped up on something (possibly caffeine), and maybe he was trying to counter the effects with self-medication in the form of sleeping pills. That said, if the joker is anything like in the comics the way Grant Morrison or Frank Miller portrayed him, he's going to be one serious psychopath.

Oh, okay then.

You mean the Eclipse? I didn't realize that was Fujitsu. And: oh. Never mind then.

I disagree that it doesn't matter. I will agree that it will matter the least with the equipment that has the best power supplies, to the point of negligible. But it's not a black-and-white issue: matter/doesn't matter. It's more like, the better power supplies your gear has, the less it'll matter, but if you want to do everything you can to improve your gear, certainly clean power can be one of them. Now, there is some gear that actually benefits from square power waves. Unfortunately, that's the limit of my knowledge -- I don't know which ones.
