  1. The suit was completely unrelated to the headphone meet, and was the day before.
  2. I do definitely prefer the shape of the SR404sig pads, and am even an unabashed SR404sig fan. The ltd, while sounding quite good, just didn't fit as nicely or be as comfortable.
  3. The SR404LE are very nice headphones, I actually got to listen to a few tracks today in relative quiet during the not so silent auction, using JP#'s tubed exstata and Ari's cdp-deq2496, and really dug it. A certain redhead, who shall remain unnamed, sounded simply superb.
  4. Yeah, I know! It was amazing, an hour in the rain and I learned that both my suit and suitcase both seem to be made of gortex or something, because while my face and feet were wet, I actually remained basically dry, and after dragging my suitcase through many a puddle, and having it trail behind me receiving no protection from my umbrella, nothing was even damp when I finally made it to the hotel!
  5. Yesterday: Bus to NYC, met some people, amazing sushi, good beer, got lost in Queens 8 miles from my hotel for an hour in the rain towing a huge sack of gear, took an expensive and totally worthwhile taxi ride, and went to be super early (before midnight!). Today: Woke up super early (8am!), set up gear, chatted with a bunch of cool folks, acknowledged the existence of headphones, got soaked in the pouring rain, just got on my bus heading home.
  6. I would too, even just for reasons which do not relate to the sound.
  7. Way to go Stretch! Should definitely help South Africa to be more bearable.
  8. Economic stimulus by gear lust. It isn't bad, its...patriotic.
  9. You say sane people, I say people with too small a range of experience.
  10. That is actually a pretty good idea...thanks Al's son!
  11. PS is cool, but your meters are what is really catching my lustful gaze.
  12. Congrats Naaman!
  13. That doesnt take into account any rolloff the OPTs may have or LC resonance though, so it is definitely possible to get boosted bass with the wrong (or depending on POV, right) parafeed cap size.
  14. Hawtness indeed.
  15. You have the OPT ratio, so you can calculate reflected impedance, and use that. Probably you would want 3-10uf.

    Deals

    The Phillips 1000VA UPS on www.thingfling.com right now looks pretty good.
  17. Happy birthday Fitz!
  18. Round trip bus tickets for Baltimore-NYC
  19. Have a wheeled smackdown with the monster guy.
  20. Or a segway.
  21. Agreed. Good wiring does not necessarily mean it is pretty, and while it might not be a Nugget Audio build, it certainly doesnt look like the Mikhail builds I inspected in Florida.
  22. Must be the secret finger bite-block technique.
  23. Congrats Todd!
  24. Ooh, GCD750, sexy dacsies.
