  1. There's a whole series of these, if you click on the associated videos.
  2. As long as you aren't basing "better" on "isolates from external noises", because it is definitely not better based on that criteria. I do find the sound signatures similar, though, but the HD600 scales better. Just for the record, the DT990 was never recommended. I was recommending the DT880, which is a completely different animal.
  3. O RLY? Desktop, stands, or what?
  4. Except they're bass-limited compared to headphones, too.
  5. No, IIRC, the DT990 had a particularly flimsy band. The DT880 is better than that. EDIT: I thought Jacob liked them, too.
  6. Seriously. I've always had one of those ridiculously good-looking dental hygenists with every dentist I've gone to, and most of them were not shy.
  7. Given that you're coming from HD580's, and you were happy with them, I would recommend sticking with that line/sound signature -- the HD600's. They're really some of the most comfortable headphones out there, and properly amped, they really shine. That said, I have absolutely no use for such an open phone. I like DT880. I use VTG's for office use, because I need really closed. I should probably consider going back to the DT770.
  8. Dap-Tone Records' Halloween mix
  9. No...handouts? No bribing? No throwing money away?
  10. PS Notice the length (5 seconds). Someone's on their meds:
  11. So true! I told the technician when asked, "are you okay, were you alright in there?": "Yeah, but...that music sucked. And this is coming from someone who has listened to all of Metal Machine Music more than once."
  12. This one ("one" == videotic proof of something WITH ALL CAPS TITLE no less) beats all: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82gJ4zftSjQ

    Made in 2013 (!). Also: contains nudity, blasphemy, drugs, violence...basically, your typical fun little glam metal 80's video:
  14. The Oatmeal put out a request for pictures of B&N displays of the oatmeal. As compensation, he promised to sketch (with artistic license) the first "some" of those posting pics. This guy was late, so he posted a more interesting pic, to try to garner attention. IMHO, he succeeded: The Oatmeal, instead of sketching, made him an animated gif: I would totally:
  15. Tangram -- this guy is a fairly wonderful old-school style electronic music -- Tangerine Dream/Jean-Michel Jarre/Kraftwerk/Synergy -style instrumentals. Normally I listen to more minor keys than this, but for some reason I find his form of upbeat attitude palatable.
  16. Now I'm going to go and listen to Traffic Experiment, mostly on the strength of this video:
  17. Lou Reed, The Raven -- this is such a bizarre project -- I think he deliberately goes through some very disparate and anachronistic styles with this from (MMM-style) noise ("Fire Music" -- which is -- from a fan of Japanese noise and Dry Lungs/Controlled Bleeding/etc. -- still brilliantly musical) to spoken word radio-style adaptations of some of his work to a very strange reading of "A Perfect Day" to blues and gospel and straight-ahead Lou Reed style music. Love it. Steve Buscemi has some cameos, and I didn't realize he had such a distinctive voice.
  18. Suxorz, dude.
  19. I don't know--I see some of them as making them permanent. Sent from mah phone-blet via Tapatalk
  20. Caught up on Arrow and Tomorrow People. Arrow I will continue to watch, the writing does a lot of things right. Yeah, it does a lot of things wrong, too, but the things it does right, I really like a lot. For example, he has to keep secrets. A lot of time this is conveyed by showing his complete non-reaction to something. I love that. Also, Felicity. They give her some of the best lines. I love when she says something totally Freudian like, "I love having you inside me. And by you, I mean your voice, and by inside me, I mean inside my ear." Tomorrow People has the potential to be typical teenage angsty bullshit, it's still on probation. Started Continuum season 2. All the season 2 episode titles have the word, "second" in them, in the same way that all the season 1 episodes have the word, "time" in them.
