Koss ESP/950 electrostat thread
My latest pair of ESP950 I am glad to say have no channel imbalance. After whipping up a quick adapter, these kick so much ass out of the T1. Anyone know where I can grab a pro Stax cable?

JH Audio stuffs
Anyone can clearly see where the pause and slip of mind happened after typing "Alright, so we do this".

College brought up interesting topics. I guess it was worth something.

Dolphin penis actually isn't prehensile technically (no bone). Its just very strong muscles that can be manipulated to grab things, so essentially the same.

With what existential crisis are you grappling right now?
I seem to eat my oats and honey bars fine and then pour the crumbs in my mouth. I'll have to watch to see how I do it next time. Maybe it helps that I get them out of a vending machine in a vertical position. Maybe if I break the bottom of the bars off and eat the top pieces first and then eat the small pieces down in the package and then pour the crumbs, that seems like a good plan. I hope thinking about it hasn't jinxed me.

JH Audio stuffs
I feel like I got my JH13 shot with my custom IEM experience previously. I get and understand they are ridiculously good, but I don't know if I would get them now even if they were less then $900. Many of their upsides are also their biggest flaws for me (custom (IE fit concerns), small (IE fragile, stolen/lost), isolation (IE antisocial enablers)). I have made up my mind to go to O2mk1, likely exStata, and a nice source one day and then move on to speakers before going back to into high-end portable audio (but damn is the PICO slim tempting somehow still). Those who have the money to afford these with a proper fit and the previously mentioned are very lucky in my book, I would love to be in that position.

Yes! From the top.

What did you do today?
That is horrible. With any good luck, hopefully it will be repaired as good as new.

What did you do today?
Mostly took apart my trucks engine. Sent it off to the repairman after reassembling to see if he can confirm leaking head gasket (fingers crossed that it just needs a new water pump).

The LCDuino-1 I/O processor - by amb and linuxworks
BTW, hasn't Russell been releasing his arduino source code for controlling the Buffalo and Opus through i2c as he develops his chip? I'm going to go find it again quickly. EDIT: maybe not. GLT has the Opus code (right side panel) and tutorial on his blog: http://hifiduino.blogspot.com/2009/05/arduino-controller-dac.html

DIY Mini Meet in Austin
Ooooo, sweet. I am hoping to see a lot of electrostat amps, maybe a stacker, and LCDuinos involved.

I personally also enjoy Wall-E and BBC's Planet earth a LOT on Blu-Ray, they would be my first choices (sadly, that went to the dark knight for my first). Anime seems like a really good choice too if your into that sort of thing. My collection also includes Baraka, Slumdog millionaire, There Will Be Blood and Cool Hand Luke in BR. I still buy DVDs when I can find them for $5 a pop and don't really care about the picture quality or sound quality as much on those titles.

2x Emotiva X-Series RCA

Emotiva now carrying cables
I believe their RCA are priced per cable, so these together are just a tad bit cheaper then BJC with code. I bought two pair of the X series.
