  1. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbw17uiyM30]Family Guy on MadTV[/ame] postjack == Snoop Dogg
  2. Sounds like an order from Discipline Global Mobile -- yes? Rawk.
  3. You know what else we left behind at Head-Fi? Holding back. I love watching idiots getting taken to task like this, keep up the good work guys (not you, trollbait).
  4. I would like to say no, but that would be tempting fate. Plus, there's that whole "Darwin awards" thing. But no, not much.
  5. "Hey, baby, wake up from your asleep" -- awesome. Have you discovered Kompressor, yet? You'd like them, too. How about adult.'s first 1 1/2 albums or so, stuff like Anxiety Always and Resuscitation. On a completely different note: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwTZ2xpQwpA]Chocolate Rain[/ame] and [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_f5brPwTWP8]Radiohead mashup[/ame]
  6. Both modded, or both unmodded? Too bad "outperforms" is so subjective, otherwise I'd take that wager.
  7. I don't.
  8. Trapped in a Closet continues!
  9. 22L2's just a got a not-so-good review in the September issue of Hi-Fi Choice. Yeah, it's a bit much. [me=Dusty Chalk]shrugs[/me] Yeah, they sound really good from 3-4 feet away. Add a sub, and you'll have a kickin' 5.1 setup. You are getting 5 of these, aren't you?
  10. Pretty sure it's going to be the SVS SB-12Plus.
  11. I bought my pair from TheSloth, so he should pipe in here, too. Short: dang, they are nice. Keepers. I really like their sound signature -- the crossover is pretty close to inaudible, which leaves a very sweet and only slightly forward midrange -- female vocals like Camille's Le Fil sound exquisite on this. Very slight upper-midbass/lower midrange hump, and no extreme low frequencies whatsoever -- I will eventually be integrating this with a sub. Very slight, it took me months to even hear it. Upper frequencies have nice extension, although not the best "air" I've ever heard, certainly adequate, and not erring on the rolled-off side at all. I listen to mine nearfield (on either side of my monitor) and quiet in my humble-sized office, so don't have as much of a concern with higher-frequency room acoustics, but the room might be contributing to the upper-midbass hump.
  12. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81vnTjv7GB4]Star Wars III: A Lost Hope[/ame] "Boobie?"
  13. Things that aren't available on vinyl sound better on CD.
  14. Ditters. I cringe.
  15. Dell Dimension 9200 w/Q6600 quadcore processor My second Windows computer in 6 months, I think. Now I have to decide which of these is going to be the dedicated studio computer, and which one I'm just going to take on the internet -- probably the quadcore will go in the studio, I think.
  16. Cool. Congrats. Don't suck.
  17. Not right now, I just bought a computer. It was more like I pictured you trying to set up a 6.0 surround configuration.
  18. Why three? Or rather, six?
  19. Anyone have any predictions? Or how about actual knowledge? SACD has firmly entrenched itself as a niche market...and getting "nicher". Are either HD-DVD or BluRay going to carry high-res audio, either high-rate PCM or DSD? (Can you tell I just read in this month's Stereophile the "As We See It"?) I WANT MY HIGH-RES!!!1!
  20. Made me click.
  21. Saw Hot Fuzz last weekend -- it was great. This movie needed to be made -- my only question is, why wasn't it made sooner? I loved the Woo tribute part (amongst many other tributes).
  22. What do you want, an announcement from Audio Technica about the latest Japanese import headphones?
  23. Well, no, only one of the "good guys" would acknowledge his mistakes and help us who are barely keeping up to keep up -- so my opinion of him only goes up for recognizing it. But yes, he makes so few of them, he's still a hero.
  24. This story ruled. You rule, for telling the story, and for being its perpetrator. Here's what you should do -- get whatever bag you want, then make a stencil with the LV logo, then get a can of spray paint that will paint in as fine a line as you can, and spray "FAKE" on it in big bold letters. EDIT: No, even better idea, "NO REAL THAN YOU ARE". Or perhaps just, "LEGO". I would so like to do that. In fact, now that I've thought of it, I may just have to do that. Except, of course, in all black -- black bag, black stencil, black spray paint. I know just the bag I'm going to start with, too. (I already have it. It was part of a 4-piece set I got at CVS for $25.)
