What did you do today?
Al, for your description of the accident I'm afraid you may have some serious ligaments damage, even the meniscus, but the first thing is just having simple Rx to discard bone fractures. Once inflammation goes down, they'll see, probably a RMI scan is needed to have a complete diagnosis, though that's not the most important. Many times RMI can't give as much information as an arthroscopic procedure. I wish you don't need that By now just take your pills, rest and try to enjoy your music. Keep us posted and get well.

Ha, he won't need to threaten the doctor to get the tests he needs. I for one immensely dislike asshat patients trying to push my work. Not that it affects its quality, but it does my empathy. Maybe going to a good one is just enough Get well soon Al. I'm afraid you're going to need some rest and using crutches for a while. Hopefully not, let's know

Omega 2 vs K1000 shootout
Thanks for the comments Deepak, very interesting. I understand well what you're speaking about on the midrange detail, even using the 717 or the SRD7 hooked up to the B22 those details are amazingly well portrayed. It had been great including the HD800 in such comparison, I guess they'd do better than the K1000 too.

Grado HF-2 Impressions Thread
So they're the same but for the F1 thing The HF2 have two things that annoy me. One the plastic yoke with that button which contacts the aluminum external ring so the cups won't swing as much as needed when using the bowls, and the too thick wire. It weighs a lot. I don't know if it has any positive audible effect, but I think I'd trade it for a less weighty feel.

Vinyl groove echo
If the pre-echo is for the groove, you will here it right one LP turn before the "real" sound is played. If it's for the tape, as derek said, the relation isn't that linear since the tape turns don't match the LP groove turns. On a ECM recording I wouldn't expect it to be from tape print-through, I don't think they had the master tapes stored long enough to have that effect -if that exists which I really doubt- but for groove rims being too thin. The effect is more noticeable when a recording hasn't much dynamic compression and a high SPL turn is right following one with quiet levels.
