Dusty Chalk

"Piqued". And: what kind of look would you like? You picked on the all black one to say something, so I thought, "crazy". How about bling: Or crystal bling: Or all white: Or mostly black: Or all black: Or (one I'm getting, so technically it's unisex):

Yeah, but it sucks.

Technically it's not idiocy to buy it the one time it's on sale.

Yes, you had to make that clarification. And yes, hawt, it is. I was just complaining last Saturday that they don't make black skeletons -- I know it's technically not a black skeleton, but it's about two orders of magnitude closer than I thought I'd ever get.

Where are you guys going to get an idea about the colors (besides the pictures being posted in this thread)? Is there a particular thread on head-fi?

Actually, Nixon makes cooler watches for women than they do for men. But Nixon hardly ever goes on sale -- at least, not the ones I'm interested in. The Spree: If I were more flamboyant, I'd wear women's watches. But yeah, Invicta does seem targeted at men, mostly.

And on a less serious note:

Dude, it will go so well with pretty much everything Dusty. Dusty was "headed in that direction" two years ago, he is now well on his way.

The problem is, it's an interaction thing, so each chair is going to sound different in your room. You're just going to have to buy a few (not more than one or two at a time, presumably) and try them. The most important part (besides comfort, of course) is the material combination closest to the head/ears. I would completely discount anything hard (like solid wood). Cloth materials and suede would be good, but they may make sounds boomier than they were originally. I would also seriously consider something with no or minimal head support.

Crack, I say.

"As the fact that I've emailed you twice about it already, it does indeed make me uncomfortable." on him And yes, I understand all that about handmade -- it's not like you want to return them, you just want to fix it, and you're even implying that you'd be willing to do the work...

Dusty want bad. Dusty just spent $700, so Dusty cannot has right now, but Dusty will be obtaining as soon as Dusty has $354 disposable income. Thing of beauty.

Standard Deviation calculations.

Ah. I don't know -- I'm not looking into getting into all the slapping and plucking. I just love a good bass line -- it doesn't have to be anything fancy (although my jaw does, indeed, drop, when I hear someone like the Ox play "The Real Me") -- listen to, for example, "Bang and Blame" from REM. Really nice understated bassline on that one. (I'm not saying it's easy to play -- especially with the groove he's got going on, but it doesn't require the technical virtuosity that for instance Justin and I discussed in that other thread -- it's more of the other kind -- the expressive virtuosity that Justin described.) The only thing hard about the one I'm thinking of is this one two-note "chord" (is it still called a chord when it's only two notes?) right towards the end of this one part.

Yes, the one from Reno Hifi -- thanks for the advice, and especially that tip. No, not , that was really from my wallet. Was trying to save money for potential super duper Black Friday deals (hello? I still need a laptop), but this seemed too good -- and too 'me' -- to pass (ahem) up. And then I'll have a pretty decent speaker rig again. Oppo BDP-83 -> Pass Labs Aleph P -> Musical Fidelity A308 -> Dynaudio Special 25's. "kasha"? Why do you use that word? I do not think it means what you think it means. Is there such a thing as a "kasha stout"? Because they got oatmeal stout and barley malts, so I'm thinking...never mind... Oh, and technically I haven't bought it yet, but I just committed to buying it, and told the guy I'm buying it, so as far as I'm concerned, it's bought. Here's to hoping he doesn't sell it before Friday.

Pass Labs Aleph P in the all black

Actually, having them symmetrical should improve your balance, since red goes faster. And yes, you should stop buying stuff at 3am.

Well, fox did cross my mind, but it was being so docile (contrasted by how tightly the cat was gripping it), I thought, "no". Small dog? Maybe. Another cat? Nope, never seen one like that before. BTW, I love that move at the end, where he cartoonishly bounces off two cushions before disappearing out of frame. Reminds me of Bobby.

Depends how much they want for the lot, and how many of them interest you.

Yuppers. It's essentially so big, that you start to get distortion because the pixels are different distances from your eyes, so they fixed it by curving the entire thing. PS I changed my mind, I don't want -- it's only "900p". Although the ultra-widescreen aspect (pun intended) would have been nice. Can you imagine having every single one of your iTunes columns up at once?

Alright, jailbreakers, change your password already.

What am I, invisible chopped liver? I still think he laces them with aurally ingested crack. You know, one of these days, we're going to look back on all this and laugh: Head-Fi newb: "So what's the best single-driver IEM? I want to go 'old school'." (...probably someone just being born, or still in diapers.) I already know what his next project should be -- it'll have to be the JH13.2 -- separate entry points for the different crossover sections, with an external digital processor to correct for the crossovers. And then you'd have to tri-amp them.

No. I have too much cat hair and other shit in the air where I live, the thing would look ancient in a week.
