  1. Heaven...is a place...where nothing...ever happens...
  2. Oops, he did say dynamics. Open or closed? If you don't mind closed, I'd say go for the new totl Denon - D5000.
  3. Whatever the new Stax Omega 2/SR-007's are going to be. The old ones are some of the best sound I've ever heard, properly amped (Blue Hawaii/KGSS/ES-1).
  4. 10m x 10m? Slate? Glass? Concrete? Yeezh. Good luck with that. At least put some bass busters in the corners, but really, you need some wall-rugs and carpeting. I would go for something soft-ish, like a cloth-dome tweeter, such as those in the Spendor S3/5, or perhaps a Vandersteen/Vanderstene/however it's spelled. The 5A was picked by Robert Harley as the >US$2K speaker he would buy if he had to live with it, in the most recent issue of Absolute Sound. You might also want to look at Nearfield Acoustics' Pipedreams, they're supposed to reduce the effect of the room. ...and a dCS Scarlatti stack? I hate you.* *Not literally, it's just an expression of envy. PS What are Jupiters?
  5. Yeezh. (makes a mental note to stay the fuck away from these things)
  6. Welcome to the club.
  7. This is meaningless to us, give us something we can use.
  8. Audio Technica L3000 or Denon D5000
  9. Are you serious? That sucks. With the amount of money spent on those things, you'd think they'd be able to get it right. Isn't it just a memory location in the controller? Or is it the LCD itself?
  10. Sounds broken -- take it in to get it fixed.
  11. And then you'll actually, like, tell us stuff?
  12. That's even better.
  13. No, but three rights make a left. Maybe that's what you're thinking of?
  14. Electrostatic panels are much harder to make than drivers. Most importantly, they are very easy to get wrong. You basically need to have a consistent distance between the two stators, and the larger you make the panel, the harder that is. And you need large panels to get any bass at all. You should read the recent interview with the Martin Logan guy for a very honest appraisal -- from, amongst other perspectives, a business point-of-view -- of the process. spritzer -- you heard Final? I only ask because you didn't mention them. I've heard really good things about Final, except that, like the Quads, they beam. Of course, I've heard similarly good things said about Innersound. I'm actually a big fan of Martin Logan, and am seriously considering getting a pair. We'll see, it's not going to happen any time soon.
  15. Wow. You got it? Give it some burn-in.
  16. Last night -- 3 bottles of various vintages of Vouvray and 1 of a Chenin Blanc Today -- some Pantene shampoos and conditioners, a bag of Fiery Jalapeno Doritos, and a bottle of wild cherry Pepsi
  17. He's contributing to the entropy. Again.
  18. Yeah, except they're called the ESL-988, ESL-989 and the ESL-2805, ESL-2905.
  19. Gee, way to insult the rest of us.
  20. Kentucky Fried Movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kf2p964uHDs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnBlknT2DA0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0f-k2VVJ6Q and the very NSFW, Catholic High School Girls in Trouble That's what I meant when I euphemistically said, 'uterus'. And considering she's going all the way in, and probably going to come out kicking and screaming, not entirely inappropriate, neither.
  21. the little girl entering its...belly? uterus?...is disturbing, to say the least.
  22. Whoa! When did that happen? I don't know how long the owners of this forum are going to be happy that they're providing free advertising for that forum...
  23. So are you finally going to answer the Sade question?
  24. There are torrents of it around. I think if you look for "dsotm dvda", you might be able to find it. What it is, is an ISO image of the DVD -- just burn it straight as an ISO image, and you should have it.
