Wall Street - Faulty Risk Analysis?
Nate, I have friends in consumer finance and used to follow the industry in my previous job. And you're right, it's a cesspool. Of interest, the big issuers are thinking of swinging the pendulum all the way back now that the party's over. We'll likely soon see them starting to unilaterally close the accounts of customers under a certain credit score threshold in the name of cleaning up their loan portfolios. This will be a very nasty surprise for lots of people who have been living on credit, or counting on it as their cushion to get through the coming tough period, and an absolute kick in the nuts for consumer spending and the broader economy. So if you think CC companies are unpopular now, just wait a while!

What If I Were Looking For a Complementary HP for The 750..?
I like the "vulgar classnessness", and like to imagine I add to it. Would you be so kind as to go and take a flying fuck at a rolling doughnut, if that's not too much trouble?

Right now I use the HD600s pretty much all the time in preference to the HD650s. I'm going to hold on to both until I get the GS-1 and see how they each like that. This probably opens me up for an ass-kicking, but I also feel the Enigma Apex cable makes a big difference with the 600s, particularly in terms of bass reproduction. Sort of takes them in the direction of the 650s, while retaining the greater urgency/immediacy the 600s have stock. Forgive my inadequate powers of description, please.- slow forum

That page kept serving me banner ads for a survey that would reveal if I was secretly gay. That happened to everybody else too, right? Right?- SVS Decision: PB12-NSD vs. 20-39 PCi
If this is solely for music, do you really need a 12" sub? There are more compact options that would give you loads of extension for anything short of pipe organ extravaganzas. Otherwise, if the cylinder form factor works best for you then go for it. I remember seeing some measurements a while back of the SVS box subs and equivalent cylinders and there was really no significant difference in response.- What are you reading now?
