Anyone want to help this guy out? I'll send him here as well.

As opposed to what, letting the corpse rot?

It took you two weeks to come up with that quip? Do you know what? Still funny.

Battery-powered, presumably. (The laser, not the wenches.)

If you really had a time machine, you'd go back to 12/31/1999 and get laid as much as you could (because everyone is thinking that the world is going to end).

How do you know, unless you can grasp it yourself? Unless...you're not human ! ! !

Um...technically, it happened at least twice before, being that that "07" is short for "2007", and will probably happen again (admittedly, in about a thousand years).

You lost me.

Are you serious? (considers selling his HP-2's which he hardly ever listens to)

Yes, absolutely.

This probably most accurately reflects my impressions as well.

So is that the power supply? That is silly -- power supply 3x the size of the amp itself. But silly in a good way. I want one. 's'cute.

No, I never opened it up -- it got kind of shoved to the back-burner. Thanks for the "bump" -- I'll definitely get around to it shortly. And thanks again for the offer, thrice. And thanks for the pic. I'm kind of a newb, so started to ask what was wrong with it, until I looked at it compared to the ones next to it. OMG!

I highly recommend discussing it over here, especially since if you do, I won't have to scold you for POSTING SPOILERS, YOU FUCKS... Although I have to express my appreciation for the amount of effort you guys have been doing in the Battlestar Galactica thread -- I don't want to open the thread, but will instead say THANK YOU here. I have noticed, and y'all have been doing it such a way that I have been able to ignore the posts. So, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. I now return to your previously schedule curmudgeon.

Nice review, I agree with most of your points, especially about tonal balance. I think I disagree on comfort, but I've never had them on my head for 2 hours. My biggest disappointment actually has nothing to do with these phones -- it's the fact that since they discontinued the K1000, these are supposed to be their top-of-the-line headphones, and as such, are...disappointing. A company's top-of-the-line headphones should be pretty damn good..."statement"... Actually, I thought that was basically the difference between the pro and the home version, when those came out...? I'll have to find my email from Jan (Meier)...

Google smart.

I'm a Beyer fan, and first of all, I disagree with the lack of midrange comment. Recessed, yes; "none to speak of", no. Maybe after you've been numbed to midrange by Grado headphones shoving it in your face all the time... Secondly, in answer to the original question -- no, I've not heard them, but I don't understand the appeal, and am not at all drooling to try them, though in all fairness, I should still hear a pair. The DT770's are fine for what they are, I'd be surprised if the changes really rendered an overall improvement. I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm skeptical. I suspect it's a flavor-of-the-month thing again, over there.

LOL @ benign ghost.

I love my silver interconnects from Pure Silver Sound. They take forever to burn in, though. Like weeks.

I always liked Joe better. Funny thing is, they both really talk like that. The following conversation occured at the end of my viewing of Saw III: Dusty: Well...that didn't exactly live up to the standards set by the first two. Hirsch: That's one way of putting it. Dusty: How would you put it? Hirsch: It sucked. Dusty: (LOLs)

Skip Montreux. PS I've been on a Miles binge myself lately, and have all of the Columbia series and the live ones except Montreux and Plugged Nickel (which for some reason is no longer in Borders' catalog) and the Legendary Prestige Quintet Sessions.

Yeah, I go through that too, every time someone uses the word "remix" in that "more than just a remaster" sense. There should really be a different term for that, like remixdown. PS R. Kelly hates Saw III. Likes Grados, though. Tolerates Ryan Adams, but I think that's just his public face being nice.

What's wrong with them besides the fact that they're missing pads? And: It says right in the auction:

's'truth.

I picture her driving a mecha.
