The only problem with Bose is that they're overpriced. Since you didn't pay for it, by all means, get it working.

I'll have to watch that later, when I can afford to have my mind evaporated. Robots sing a Christmas carol

Okay. Yeah, that's telling. If you don't see notice them under those circumstances, then you won't see notice them.

Beautiful cat, and sounds like a charmer.

Yeah, I think most people on head-case know how to listen. Including me. I have preferences, that's all. It's not like I don't know what it sounds like -- I'm someone who has heard live music, I know what it's supposed to sound like.

It's not fatigue, it's just annoyance -- I don't want to see pixels. I don't care how nice and non-fatiguing the screen is to look at, I don't want to see pixels -- I find it distracting.

There's a double-entendre in there somewhere... Oh hey look, there's another one.

Unless a majority of your source material (because of one's taste in music) is inferior, in which case accommodations should be made. And even so, there's always compromises -- does one go for the flattest frequency response, or the least THD? I listen to a lot of "busy" music, so ...what's it called -- intermodulation distortion? ...is pretty important to me.

Well...yeah! Good luck with that.

Well, that's probably an individual thing based on blindness and glasses prescription strength. I am fairly hard of seeing, but my glasses put me right back at 20/20, I think. I'm at about 7 feet from a 42, myself, and that distance is right on the edge.

At 9 feet, I wouldn't recommend more than 46, in fact I'd probably stick with 42. Otherwise you're going to start to see pixels.

I just want to thank all the bumpers -- I'm pretty sure the correlation between day (and time) I saw a bump and actual free tracks downloaded is 1:1.

I think he's referring to the difficulty in finding an adequate amp and source for the headphones, as well as still referring to the "engage" comment. I mostly agree with him. I think people should have to try that hard if they want to, I just don't find myself wanting to. That said, I really need to hear these again.

I could see how that would go. Girl goes in for facepainting..."you know, I could do more than just face paint"..."ok, sure"...gets completely enraptured painting everything else, never gets back to painting the face... Mmm...Felicity...my favourite character on TV right now...she's like that character on Joss Whedon shows that says the really awkward stuff (Anya, Fred, etc.)...

...and it's an automatic. Lollers. No, seriously, yay, the important thing is that you like it.

That's awesome.
