  1. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/50236454/ It's right at the limit of checking in size, so don't overpack it.
  2. Oh snap!
  3. ...the hell? It was a bright, sunny day (by the time I stepped outside).
  4. Who said I was entirely kidding? I have literally heard electrostatics get better here in the winter.
  5. Galavant -- this might be the second greatest show ever (after Archer). Two episodes in a row had me laughing -- Giants vs. Dwarves and About Last Night.
  6. Also humidity -- especially with electrostatics. I realize that might not be much of an issue where you are (Greenland? Iceland? Frozenshitholeland? No, wait, that last one's Canada...and maybe some parts of Minnesota and North Dakota), but here in the DC tri-state area...
  7. Considering the camera puts on an extra 10 lbs., you have lost a lot of weight since I last saw you, Brent -- well done, sir.
  8. You must be a physicist. Real world amp building is a catalog of compromises. Some cans have very demanding impedance profiles, and there are amps which are better suited to those types of cans. And I echo Purk's statement. Although this may not be what he was trying to say, "wire with gain" sounds like the "accuracy" school of thought -- that is certainly not the only school of thought, and just because you don't fall in with these other schools does not mean amp builders won't still cater to them.
  9. Steven Wilson live at Wiltern Theater, LA, 13-06-2015 -- so far this seems to be a verbatim performance to the one I saw last year, including the between-song banter.
  10. Looks delicious! What are those first ones -- they look like bite size summer rolls...
  11. I was there then promptly passed out (insomnia prior night), but I've already listened to it a couple times on showreel -- good show!
  12. Yeah, exactly. I've been East coast my entire life, but the Airplane and early Starship still epitomized the hippie sound that I associate with California hippie music. This is probably my favourite song by them:
  13. I <3 my L3Ks. The Qualias need to seriously be positioned correctly. They are ridiculously sensitive to position.
  14. That faux fireplace is really faux sooty!
  15. I like this ^ answer better. That's only because I don't have a case for it yet.
  16. Yeezh. Glad it wasn't that for you.
  17. What does it mean when it won't stop? I want to know what my spiritual synth is!
  18. Because science!
  19. RIP Paul Kantner (guitarist, Jeffersons Airplane and Starship) Him -- he went by 'Black'. And it's like the opposite of the Cardigans' "Love Fool" (the latter being the saddest happy sounding song, the former being the happiest sad sounding song) -- the lyrics aren't that melancholy, that's why I said a touch. Also to explain why I liked the song so much.
  20. Lollers -- the fable of the tiger with a thorn in its paw, except human/toothpick/etc. I am sympathetically relieved -- someone else that I knew who had diabetes ended up losing toes to gangrene, so take that shit seriously in the future.
  21. Would adding more orange juice help (citric acid)? Thanks! (wanders off to look up 'braise')
  22. The K701 is fine, it does not belong on this list. The only reason I don't have one is because it doesn't do anything any of my other phones do. The Beyer T1 needs very good amplification to sound its best. The OP is shameful in its arrogance. 20 seconds to make a judgment? Disqualified.
