What, this: ...? I still don't see how that is apropos. If you were addressing the "50 year old" aspect, "revolutionary" is hardly a requirement. "Not ancient" is sufficient.

If you read back a few posts, I've mentioned that I've heard the SA5000. They're not total crap -- I completely disagree with this assessment. And "most would say" -- that would be head-fi? Where "most would say" stuff about stuff they've never heard? That doesn't count. They're just regurgitating others' opinions.

You make those sound like bad things. Bud how did they sound? That's all that should matter with headphones.

Well, the cRaptor would explain it. I'm not familiar with the sound signature of the HA5K, and I don't even know what the BCL is. I mean, I'm sure I'll go, "ooooooohhhhhh!!!!!1!" once you tell me, but right now I'm not coming up with it.

Why does it have to be revolutionary? Why can't it just be a well-engineered headphone?

Wait, what?!?!? I mean, yeah, I saw your reasoning, but I just don't hear it as congested. What amp are you using again?

$25,000 Do you realize, even if I sold my car, my speakers, my amps, and any other large items I could think of, I still wouldn't be able to afford it?

I don't know if it'd be worth saving a nickel, when it probably will just go back into reshipping.

You're exaggerating. I've heard the SA5000 (specifically, Juan's pair, don't know if it was recabled at that point or not), and it's certainly not that bad.

Either that, or (a) he's confusing "Santa Claus" with the movie, "The Santa Clause", or ( he's utilizing the old spelling, Santa Klaus, which would mean that he's still misspelling it, or © it's against his religion to spell it correctly.

I think you're reading "bot" a little too literally -- there's the physical robots with which we are familiar from the movies, and then there's the world wide web "bots" that are just programs that do stuff repeatedly. He's of the latter variety. Unless someone builds him a Mindstorms kit.

Spamster!

No, he's just illiterate.

You don't think there's something mannequin-ish about those wooden enclosures? image link

Yeah, I was just demonstrating my non-wussiness. "Posturing", as it were. You should search on "fuck you, you fucking fuck", or "fuck you, you fucking cocksucker" -- it's almost at meme levels in these here parts.

The rational explanation is that not everyone knows how to handle themselves on the internet, and Billy is one of them. What more than that do you need? This happens all the time, it's not really new (and it certainly doesn't take a doctor to diagnose). And it's not really the same as Tourette's or bipolarity at all. I think the technical term for it is "immaturity".

Or what was that other one, who had a name like Professor something -- it was on a flash gordon type show.

Fuck you.

Jesus! Can you run them down, please? I know the leatherheads on the left, but the rest I'm not sure about -- looks like W2002's in the middle, but I'm pretty sure at least two of them are not. And what are those on the right? And why do you need two?

I don't think they take offense because they think it's a bad thing, I think they take offense to someone who isn't actually bipolar using it as an excuse to act stupid, even if that excuse is espoused by someone such as you, who, although maybe a doctor, isn't the kind that diagnoses such afflictions.

I am still fond of the Rykodisc series, as I was in that other thread. Worth hearing, at least. I wouldn't mind hearing (track names, as I have much Bowie) examples of the high-frequency stuff you're talking about.

They look like wooden mannequin parts. Specifically, boobies. Or, perhaps, hips.
