Excellent point(s). Taking the arguement to extremes (or absurdity) to make a point probably isn't as necessary here as it is "some other places" on the internetz'. Your one person cannot make a difference arguement however does fall flat if we take the next step. For example, you do not think 1 billion Chinese seeking the life-style we are so fortunate to be able to squander is not going to "make a difference"? What would be the effect if China had the same number of automobiles per capita as the United States? Conversely, what would be the effect if the avg. mpg of autos in the United States was raised 2 mpg. To affect change, things need to move in a direction, not a specific target (e.g. everyone does not need to drive a Prius or be a Vegan). Oh, and saints/demons or heroes/villians are not born, they are made by the circumstances they find themselves in and how they choose to respond to those circumstances because everyone always has a little of both sides at all times, IMO.

Yeah, you'll fit in ...

OK, I get it. For me it is a fine edge. When I listen to Miles and/or some other artists, I expect to wince a little now and then. If I don't then I consider that to be a resolution/detail problem. However, it shouldn't be painful to listen to on an extended basis.

Hmm, that doesn't sound quite right.

^^^ What exactly is "soft treble"?

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Dude. If real ecotoxicological interactions were this easy to quantify and assign causative influences we would live in a much simpler world, i.e. where organisms don't evolve they are static creations.

Excellent.

I will test them and then listen to both. I only plan to keep one so you can have the right of first refusal for the other if they both turn out to be fine.

Got up at 6:30, everyone got assembled and we went to soccer, then went to the coffeehouse for pick-me-ups, then to swimming, then home to drop off stuff and pick stuff up, then off to birthday party number one where I followed along at our sons first miniature golf game, then cake and opening of presents, off to birthday party number two, watching kids try to destroy the worlds toughest pi

Hmm, my wife has a tshirt like that but the arrow in back points off to the side

Bodes well for the future of humanity

It also has the Apple authentication chip so it can receive the unprocessed digital data from your iphone/ipod.

Here's one mans explanation: http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/03/science/03conv.html

I don't know how the TungSol sound but I would not pay more than $20 - $30 max depending upon how I felt about the seller. Right now a lot of the 6F8G tubes on ebay seem to be going for inflated prices. I guess I need to let Icarium buy all he wants before I put in bids. Oops. Nate beat me to it. He is absolutely right, if you are going to pay the high prices you may as well go with the 6SN7s.

If God can do anything, can He/She create a rock so big that He/She cannot lift it?

Actually, you just think they are JH13s, they are actually Monster Turbines.

Thanks everyone. I had a nice relaxing day listening to music and taking the time to do some necessary retagging and rearranging of music. Just finishing up a nice martini made with Luksusowa vodka and Vya extra dry vermouth.

Yep, if they are going to pay the difference why not a 13" MBP?

I concur. The Pico and the GSX do not share a sonic signature using both single-ended. I currently have both.

Happy Birthday

It is a fairly inexpensive one for a five-year old just starting to learn the piano. But it is nice to buy something that is able to create music rather than just recreate it.
