That Zanden looks hot. (No comments about its phallicity and my questionable sexual deviance -- I'll just pretend they're uber-nipples.) The Wavelength is cute, too. And thanks for the info on the APL -- sounds like it should be some good stuff. I'll try to find a way to audition it some time in the future.

"...monkey mod..."? Which one is that?

Just pretend you're having a rave. Every night. At your home. With just you (and your family).

Jesus, someone modded a UX-1? Are there details about this?

If you pee around your balcony, you will have marked your territory. Make sure to have had lots of red meat recently -- hamburger, steak, etc. -- usually about 24 hours prior to the peeing. (Or, if you're shy, pee in a cup, then drizzle from the cup.)

Some of the Kenwoods have defeatable compression output, which was like the holy grail of pcdp's there for a while.

Just watched Severance and Dr. Strangelove or how I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb. Both ended with the same song. Both were enjoyable. Severance is one of those horror/comedies that gets it right -- it's not too silly (which, for example, Dead and Breakfast got distractingly so) to undermine the horror of the situation, and not too horrific that you couldn't laugh at the silly moments. Thumbs up from me. And Dr. Strangelove is just a classic.

Suite!

But I thought that you thought that Speakers >>> Headphones, man! WTFOMGBBQSauce.

Kenwood had some decent PCDP's in recent years...but yeah, good luck with that. I can't even find them on the audiocubes site any more.

I liked it enough to subscribe to it at one point. When I saw it on a newsstand the other day, I realized I had let my subscription lapse. I think I will resubscribe, myself. It's kind of skinny for the price, and all the prices and local ads are Canadian-oriented, and they have an affiliation with a couple companies, but I like the fact that most reviews are by multiple people.

Someone from Team Audio Technica should get these -- hey, Jacob, you like speakers...

I'd like to get mine in a sealed enclosure, but...are there any other alternatives than Larry? I guess I could always go the frankenstein route and have someone put them in an alternate enclosure, like a CD3000. R10 or a W100.

With the X-Tone, yes. And technically, it's a SDS-- (I.E. not fully a SDS, but more than a Supra).

Then by all means keep it and take excellent care of it. Mine was good at first, but deteriorated after only a month. Baby that sucker -- you must have gotten one of the exceptional good ones. Now that I know they exist, I'm going to start complaining about my problems, perhaps I'll be able to invoke the lemon law and get another one.

You're doing it wrong.

You're just jealous because you don't have one.

Gloco! Welcome to Head-Case, sorry about your thin skin!

There's actually a review of this preamp in a recent issue of UHF magazine (Canadian high-fi magazine) (the one with the Linn Artikulate on the cover).

I'm going to have to wear sunglasses -- any chance of putting them back? Why were they removed, for that other thing you were talking about? Didn't you read my black is green link in the slow forum thread? We're wasting millions of picowatt-hours (too lazy to do the math).

Welcome to head-case, markl, sorry about your thin skin.

They're comfy. I have #13. \m/

's'truth -- anything said with a British accent is an order of magnitude more palatable on the ears. Mark -- any chance you can get a recording of this guy? Or a video? Don't do it if it's going to get you into trouble, but if you can do it without arousing suspicion, do it.

Ha-ha, his head-fi link is down. 's'probably the first good thing to come out of head-fi's down-ness. You should report it. I would, but my link is at work, and I'm too lazy to look it up right now.
