Now I want black & purple bacon.

Hurray!

I'm wearing my Jayne Cobb hat today.

tuna salad samich Indeed.

It's too hot for pants. I got nuthin'. I weep for their beauty.

Yeah, it was all the rage over here as well (at least in my circles). To throw things into the works (spanners, wieners, whatevers), I used to think that William S. Burroughs was the author, but since learned otherwise -- didn't actually learn her name, but could've googled it. So I just wrote, "...uh...er...someone" as a reference to that whole confusion. Hey, at least I knew that I didn't know.

I wonder how warm it gets. I wonder what the rate of guns locking up is. I wonder...how much it is...

Congrats, Duggeh, on having the wherewithall to realize that it was time to move on, and not to let 'momentum' carry you into that rut. To quote ...er... uh...someone: So don't worry about changing your mind -- it's expected. Oh, and me: finished cleaning my office, more or less. I did something on Sunday to throw my back out, so the boxes stay, but other than that, I'm pretty happy with it. It should suffice to keep the powers that be off my back for a while.

OH, COME ON, I'M SUPPOSED TO LEAVE THAT ALONE?!?!?

FOTM!

You know, it's weird, those almost look like they were mastered by two different people. 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 10, 11 are significantly worse than 4, 5, 6, 12, 13, 14, and the others are somewhere between the two.

Steak Bulgogi from Ricky's Rice Bowl. I am totally smitten with this place, I've taken to getting two large takeouts every weekend, eating 1/3 of each, and rewarming the remaining 2/3 of each for a total of 3 meals. And they are consistently ridiculously good.

I'd give up.

That just makes me sad. Dusty quote for the day: I know it says puncture 3-4 times, but 17-23 is so much more cathartic.

Unless of course we're mixing for headphones because we expect our music to be listened to on headphones. A new recommendation then: give it a day to see if anyone comes in with the specific experience/comparison you desire, not everyone stays on the forum, some only check in once in a while. And if the one person who actually does have that comparison comes in and sees a long thread with a lot of arguing and crap, they're not going to post it anyway. EDIT: Or just buy a pair from a store that has a return policy, and decide for yourself. And then post your impressions here, so you can show us the sort of comparison you were expecting, show us how to do it right.

You don't think the Sony MDR-V6/-7506 would work better for that? And at a fraction of the price? And I think it's all 'hill' in the uppers, very little 'valley'.

I think 'hate' is overstating things -- there's one or two of us here that like them, but certainly not enough to do the comparison of which you're asking. In my case, yes, I did hate them, but I by no means speak for the forum -- just ask them. And to the latter -- no, no, just assholes, not deaf. You're welcome to prove them otherwise, but you're certainly not trending in that direction. And boomana -- to his defense, I am, indeed, an asshole, and that was, indeed, a quip. I'm alright with that.

To the first part -- that is more or less accurate, although people might quibble about the "more"; I think it ebbs and flows, myself. To the second part -- just log out. This is not the Hotel California.

Hey, at least we're honest. For the record (ahem) -- you actually did get your answer right here -- no-one's heard the PS1000 and the GS1000 with the knowledge of how many hours of burn-in they had.

I have a soft spot for recording professionals, so I'll give you a little help: (a) we're a snarky bunch, so we say stuff like that all the time, including to each other -- think of it as a cultural difference thing; ( pretty much everyone else here has what can only be considered the opposite of a soft spot for recording professionals, because most recording professionals that we've had experience with on the forums are assholes. So instead of trying to post your own brag sheet, tell us objectively what you think...I'll even get you started -- I have no idea how many hours were on the pair or two I've heard briefly, but my experience with them is that they have some bizarre frequency response with multiple peaks and valleys, almost like a roller coaster. I can see that, once you've gotten used to that bizarreness, they might be appealing, but by no means accurate. So (a) does your experience with them reflect mine? And: ( do the peaks and valleys go away with significant burn-in, or whut? I do believe in burn-in myself, but I am skeptical that they can transform the GS-1000 into anything other than what it is -- a very quirky, eccentric headphone that could appeal to only a fraction of all audiophiles.

Today appears to be "hard disk day" at Amazon GoldBox. All-day deal == Seagate 1.5T for $76; current hourly deal == Seagate 2T NAS $170.

Not sure why this is for me (other than the color scheme), but I really dig "My Body is a Cage". EDIT: Nevermind -- Devics lead singer. Didn't recognize her as a blonde. Gonna have to get the whole album.

Is it possible it just took that long to brainwash yourself into liking them?
