Ditto. Thanks for the link.

This is real -- glass, electrostatic top, dynamic bottom: Pro subwoofers -- they remind me of the old Krell Master Reference subwoofers:

I got treated to dinner and a movie by a certain lady friend. Really depressing movie, but a very lovely evening. Admittedly, she's married, so it's not like it's a date or anything. I'm just going to have one drink, say I had a lovely time, and go home.

Mackie used to have some pretty funny shit on their boxes and website as well.

Jeffy seems pretty happy with his. And I don't think you should discount current owners -- cables still break, drivers still break, they still need service, so that question goes to current owners, too.

I posit that the couch is demodulating the FM and then remodulating it into AM and then retransmitting...who am I kidding, I got nothing. WTF? How many gypsies did you piss off?

I stand corrected. I think I was remembering the price of JH16 + JH3A, but with the current "freqphase" iteration, the JH3A is no longer necessary (by all accounts).

I think only one of JH13's and JH16's are under US$1.5K.

Happy belated! (party favour noise)

They probably didn't have any complete bikes, bunch of half-finished ones.

It's actually with regard to violin practice, so headphones won't do a lot of good.

I think you meant, "Dat DAC stack", Justin.

Spent most of the afternoon with my two sisters. Yay for reunions of a post nuclear family (I felt like coining that term, and it is appropriate -- we used to be a nuclear family, and now we are within the same metropolitan area).

That goes without saying.

Most tube stores charge extra for matching tubes, so no, there is no obligation to match the "throwin"/"freebie" tubes. If they want matched tubes that you don't have, just send them here.

"Do not wear around dogs" Also, why is latex listed twice? Is it that good of a selling point? "Oh, and...latex." (wiggles eyebrows, nods suggestively)

Happy Birthday! (party favour noise)

Sorry to hear about that, man. Way too fucking many people dying lately.

I don't know who she is. "ginger in your ass" Also, baguette == baby. More here.

Were you inebriated?

Fink, Perfect Darkness -- really cool Hit & Miss find (har har) -- sparse, dark, organic, like Cowboy Junkies Trinity Sessions with more electricity (and less binaural) and a male vocalist There's going to be a lot of these, I liked what I heard of Gram Rabbit, and fully intend to revisit PJ Harvey and listen to the unofficial "H&M soundtrack" playlist. Still need to know what was playing when she was dancing around her city loft with a concussion in episode 6 (~10:10 if anyone wants to go take a listen).

Aw yeah.
