Wow Reks, your fashion sense is improving. Good to see you threw away that shirt.

Oh, you'll get called out. But in public

Pretty raw. No one will get banned for calling reks an incompetent fascist here...

Sorta, yah. That was the start of this project.

So, I've been impatiently waiting for the new TooleAudio balanced amp to come out, and am wondering when everyone thinks it will be done...

I use UM2s under my motorcycle helmet, and find the flat profile in the ear works very well...

Flaming Lips - In A Priest Driven Ambulance Gov't Mule - Live With a Little Help From Our Friends Grateful Dead - Wake of the Flood X - Los Angeles / Wild Gift Primus - Rhinoplasty but I don't really listen to albums, I put my library on random

Just like an airport express?

Ok, in case anyone isn't paying attention. I locked exactly one thread. Then charlie asked everyone to stop fucking whining, so that we didn't feel the need to do it again. Ok? No one was censored, 1 thread was locked, no posts deleted, no people banned. We tried subtlety, we tried asking, we tried locking threads. Now be adults and TAKE A FUCKING HINT. I have no problem with threads legitimately attacking someone. But a 60 page thread about 13 yr olds on headfi. Come on.

Perspective. Ain't it great. Perhaps you'd be happier there.

If you want to call editorial decisions about what this place is about censorship, feel free. This is a forum for people that like high end headphones, and when things get out of hand, we'll step in. No one had a word deleted, no one's been banned. But enough with the whining, take it to myspace.

dipolars work really well for rooms with poor accoustics. Like the magnepans.

When the other option is that we'll start locking bitch threads because they're fucking annoying, it's a valid thing to post.

At any pricerange I shop at, headphones are better than comparably priced speaker rigs.

Kids like what? With learning disabilities, but who are still bright and articulate, and who are able to do well even tho they are slow readers? I don't see how having another kid on the football team who isn't the best reader hurts anyone at all. It brings more money into the university, it helps him get an education, and it puts him on a level playing field with other football players, most of whom aren't ever going to get a degree, but who will be attending the schools in order to play football. They don't really interact with the main student body, they don't get fake degrees that devalue the rest of the degrees, and they bring in alumni money.

He can read, he's just REALLY slow about it. He won't get a degree. But with tutoring, he'll get more college than he would have any other way, and will have a career in football potentially when he's done. I agree college football shouldn't exist in the state it does, but it does, so academics should be flexible for it.

As a father of 4, there's absolutely no way that that poop was a human infant's first.

Yup, moved to reston 2 weeks ago.

Saw bruce hornsby at wolftrap last week. Was supposed to go to moe.down this weekend, but I wrecked my bike instead. Currently, my next planned show is hornsby at the Keswick in november, but I'll probably go see someone else before then.

In hd, it's not gonna stretch, it's only SD material that needs stretching. The choice is to get a 16x9 display, and stretch SD, or get a 4x3, and have bars for HD.

On my toshiba, there's a "theater wide" setting that will stretch the screen to fit. It also can zoom in a little to fill in the grey areas. I just got used to seeing fatter people on tv

I definitely preferred the UM2s to the ER4Ps, even tho I didn't find the ER4Ps lacking, exactly. Just, uhm, boring.

My suggestion would be to find the local hifi shop, and go in and talk to them. They frequently will have tradeins, or forsale boards, and will probably have recommendations. The shops I used to hang out in understood that young poor audiophiles become less young and less poor as time goes on.

I did apologize in the previous post. However, what triggered my annoyance was your mention of your rca cable in one post followed immediately by the mention of the recable in the other post, where neither seemed (to me) to be relevant. But whatever, you are free to annoy me, just as I'm free to annoy you.
