Comfy pads? Got a link to a description or source, please? In between would be about where I'd want to be. EDIT: Nevermind. Found 'em.

I'm having some cognitive dissonance. Right now with flats, I find the HF-2's bass a little too thick -- and with bowls the presentation is too remote for me. At this point, I'd still pick the HF-1s for my Grado fix. We'll see if things change with use and familiarization.

Epic caption fail!

I tried, but knew it would turn ugly. Oh cables, how long must your dielectrics divide us? How onerous the shiny coils which weight our discourse!

Must. Resist.

Cock wart. OK, I'm bored and trawled around a bit. Here's what Gordon Rankin has to say about testing different USB cables and why their physical design might make a difference. Please note I'm not advocating for this position, so kindly don't throw feces at me. He seems to have changed his mind about ferrites after actually testing them, though, as I found this from a year later.

Think it was Gordon Rankin. He says they can cause protocol errors.

Freudian slip, young pachyderm? I think Andy may have bought some of these from Jack Woo at the meet this weekend. Never got to hear what he thought of them, though.

I've read somewhere that the one thing you should probably avoid are ferrites. But who knows? Personally, I recommend purple cables.

Pretty cool. He says elsewhere they'll probably give it away for free in the end. I'll post a link if that happens. I can think of some places where it might be able to do quite a bit of good! Audio Musings by Sean Olive: Harman's "How to Listen" - A New Computer-based Listener Training Program

Dude, she needed to take a shower afterward! Congrats!

Nah. It's not like it's choking you or anything. It's just ... shorter than you'd think. Minor quibble, really.

Just took this with my iPhone, from the car, while driving by at 45mph -- so forgive the composition.

One thing I didn't greatly care for with the cable is the rather short "bridle" (what do you call the section of the cable where it splits from single to dual-entry at the ear cups?), which isn't ideal for the bigger-headed (more horse-jawed?) of us.

We were loaded, and you weren't.

The HeadRoom batch is shipping out to customers today.

I'm very sorry I missed this. After briefly meeting Donald on Friday, I never ran into him again.

Prince -- Purple Rain 24/96 rip of the Kevin Gray vinyl. Sounds absolutely epic.

Looking at the considerate way they've upholstered those rear ports, you could probably even consummate your love if you chose to.

No worries. I'm not emotionally invested in it and don't own one. I have no idea at this point what the fact of the matter is. It would be pretty strange, though, for them to so explicitly state things that simply weren't true, would it not?
