Happy birthday, Mikey! Cheers! (party favour noise)

You wanted it darker, indeed

You lost me. That's exactly what I'm telling you not to say. -100 reading comprehension points.

And sometimes he tried to throw it out there first, so that when he was accused of it, it just sounded 'playground'.

Laurie Anderson, Live at Town Hall, New York City, September 19-20, 2001 "We want to dedicate our music tonight to the great opportunity that we all have to begin to truly understand the events of the past few days, and to act upon them with courage, and with compassion as we make our plans to live in a completely new world." No, I'm not comparing this to 9/11, I just often think of this when people are defining themselves by being reactionary, when we should be heeding the wisdom of Laurie, and try and live a life of grace.

Unless it was rigged. Yeah, I went there.

If my responses don't make sense, it's because I'm more inebriated than usual.

Yeah, but...it has to be across the entire frequency spectrum, as both impedance and sensitivity are both frequency dependent.

I had 3 Ricos Tacos from Ricos Tacos Moya (chicken, steak, and pork "al pastor").

Yeah, that's what I was trying to say about the VTGs. I probably should not have said, "...in the same way..." when I really meant "...the same, only different..."

I don't have a favourite. He has too many perfect ones. And even Splendido Hotel -- with its horrific roller rink background music of "I Can Tell" -- is such an otherwise wonderful album, that I forgive it that one mar. But yeah, that's one of 'em.

Yeah, but this was in the early days, when most people were not amplifying properly. And yes, you're right, most headphones "scale" -- they respond well to increasingly better amplification. I think the HD600 are worse than most (in the same way I think the VTGs and the Sony MDR-7506/-V6 are better than most, in that they scale very little).

Voted. (I did not vote for rat poison.) Walked to my polling place. Had a margarita on the way back. Changed my Avatar. Again. Went to the doctor, got a thumbs up for the improvement, told his assistant that I really enjoyed her singing last time, I think that put her off, though, she got all formal. I hope I didn't make her feel too uncomfortable, I was trying to encourage her singing, it made for a really pleasant experience for me last time. Oh well...

No, I remember even before , the HD600 was considered veiled unless you amped it properly . I don't consider one more veiled than the other .

I don't think so -- the way Massdrop works is, they promote a slightly tweaked version of an already popular product, sort of like Grado did with Head-Fi and the HF-1 and HF-2. I mean, I still applaud you for being suspicious, as we all should be, but I don't think it's as bad as all that. They may be using this as a venue for trying out a slightly new tweak on the HD650, there's nothing in the rules against that. I'm just weary of what the tweaks could be, as I don't consider all tweaks to necessarily be improvements.

What veil? I took a pass on the HD6xx...but only because I forgot it was today. Will "settle" for the HD600 at BHPhoto, which I remember prefering to the HD650 by a small margin.

I just finished off some leftover Thai, but it wasn't curry.

(immediately shares to Facebook and several forums) I feel like Left Shark had a hand fin in the choreography.

I think you're the one that convinced me that they're like a "more fun" L3000, but I think I figured out on my own that they're easier to drive.

It only takes one.

RIP

Damn, that's too bad. I lost my Grado pads for my PS-1. I wonder if I can get replacements? That said, they're entirely different, I remember now why I replaced them. But I will obtain so that I can sell the PS-1 stock.

It's probably some airborn rubber virus. HiWire -- you know you can get the Senn pads for it, right?
