Still going up. NSFW, fairly obviously.

I'm not trying very hard not to.

The shemale percentage this week seems higher than average.

UB40 -- Signing Off

FIFY.

Ninja Engineering -- "Once you've heard it, it's too late!"

Presume this is a rhetorical question?

Yeah, this isn't the greatest time to be launching a premium-priced product in any segment. But, on the other hand, $1,400 is peanuts in the larger hi-fi arena and you could also think of it as a potential way to target the lower end of the audiophile speaker market -- which is likely in for a bloody beating in this recession.

That's because you're just a humble cable monkey, not a conceptualist and master designer like Herr Professor Dr. Dr. Rodzon. Also, I might be more impressed if their extensive research had also encompassed how to actually spell "Sennheiser."

Never thought I'd see anything uglier than the LA Jena abortions, but there you go. PS: What the fuck is a "conceptualist" and why do you need one to produce a simple headphone cable?

Just finished clearing the first lot. Some nice solid glare ice underneath from the slushfest we had a few days back. Slippy work.

"I hate these filthy neutrals Kif! With enemies you know where they stand but with neutrals -- who knows? It sickens me."

He'll soon be the only one!

See your teledildonics and raise you a fake hymen.

Ed, Al and JP's endorsements have put me over the top for this candidate. As a Senn partisan already, this most definitely sounds like change I can believe in. Off down to the Headroom booth to pull the lever. God bless my ass, which will most certainly be struck from the voters' roll if the wife ever figures out the true size of the circumaural deficit. Somebody jacked some? And around here? I'm going to have to keep an ear open.

Stereophile: Ayre's QB-9 USB DAC Revealed

Echo & The Bunnymen -- Evergreen

That's unpossible.

Happy birthday!

I've lost 15lbs in the last month on a simple regimen of influenza, followed by bronchitis, followed by gastroenteritis. There are some minor downsides, like wasting your morning in the radiology clinic as I am right now. For some reason, chronic cough plus sudden weight loss seems to make doctors think in a certain specific direction.

Polish.

The silver/black ones remind me of a certain fruit company's current color scheme, if not design aesthetic.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and predict that the initial reviews on Head-Fi will be pretty uniformly positive.
