  1. Only a real grammar nazi will get this one:
  2. Seriously.
  3. 'zat bread looks French, what's the difference between French and Vietnamese? Oh, and it also looks very very good.
  4. It's one better. And less odd.
  5. Incorrect -- maple syrup, challah bread French toast, strawberry > bacon
  6. Congrats, Bigguy -- what a relief, neh?
  7. My interest, on the other hand, has piqued, due to the USB DAC thing -- I had forgotten that was exclusive to the 105. Pfff. After reading the description, they seem to be shooting for two different sound signatures -- "warm" on the 103 and "accurate" on the 105.
  8. I played hooky for the last couple hours to watch a couple movies. I'll make up the time over the weekend, but I saved myself a trip up here.
  9. $20? I was only offered $10.
  10. What? No, you made it worse, you made it even more asymmetrical. You should have put them on the picture window. No, not really, but I have a business idea that is basically removable room treatments. Wouldn't know what to do with an entire glass wall (my old boss had that problem in his previous abode, which is what made me think of it).
  11. So what's the difference between the 103 and the 105 again? What's upgraded about the 105?

    Camels weep, "I gave up my toes for THIS?!?"
  13. Markus Acher, Was Geschah virtual mixtape Right after I finish this Pet Shop Boys remix of Blur's Girls and Boys -- I'm Britting out!
  14. @ self Yes, exactly, why didn't I think of that? Don't answer that... /thread
  15. No, I can't -- apartment complex doesn't allow that. And I wasn't worried about the TV stand being knocked over, I was worried about the TV being knocked over while on top of the stand. I understand it had a smaller footprint in the box, and with the stand (its own stand, not the Ikea stand), it should be less of an issue (I mean, while I was in the hospital, he spent over a day alone with everything, and didn't knock it over, he just makes me nervous with his energy sometimes. He likes to run down the main hall at full tilt and bounce off the walls -- literally. And the one night I let him in my room, he spent way too much time behind the TV.
  16. So when I first got my TV, Bobby knocked it over before it was even out of the box, so I immediately moved it to the master bedroom (where he doesn't have access). Now that I've cleared more than 50% of the living room, I want to finish clearing it, bring my furniture down (I will hire Two Guys And A Truck this time), and set my TV up there. Any ideas on how to make it sufficiently stable that a running 16 lb. cat can't knock it over? Is there a TV stand that will actually attach to the bottom of the TV (it's a huge plate)? Or should I just weight it down? Sandbags? I need to hurry up before next (current?) episode of Doctor Who drifts off air.
  17. I use computer as volume control all the time, and I can't hear a difference. And yeah, a lot of these systems have unbalanced inputs, and others just assume you're going to use an adapter.
  18. That's pretty much why I like Dockers -- soft uppers, which seems to be the tricky spot.
  19. They are, but for music engineers, who are deaf listen to everything more loudly. So they're upgrades, basically -- they'll go louder (theoretically) well, which might be nice if you want to step away from your desk for more than a sec. And agreed re: DBM50's -- they are designed for exactly that one thing. And yeah, they're more like US$1K, but HelloMusic.com was selling them for the same as the BM5A's -- US$800.
  20. Also, I just heard someone order a California Roll, "...no avocado." Sent frum mah phone-blet using Tapatalk.
