The three tube products you mention Sreamwhisper are poster children of tube coloration, bloat and distortion. The bhse is not anything like those creatures. It is not colored, almost to a fault. I prefer it with the Mullard xf2 tube to take soften the edges slightly and it still could not be called colored at that point. Neutral is the Headamp byword. Believe it.

Wake up Bruins!

Agreed!

"Jap retail"? You left a couple of letters off, Hungarian Archie Bunker.

RIP Giger, but damn, that really sucks about Bendjelloul dying at 36. That movie and the entire story he brought to the world are amazing. 36 is way too young to go. RIP Malik

Congrat to the Hawks and Rangers. I was at a lousy baseball game instead of watching but what the heck.

GUI has nothing to do with this comparison. Apple's rounded rectangle design patents for the hardware look like these (and dotted lines like some of the buttons, speaker slots and screens do not count/are not claimed as part of the design):

I don't like the idea of Apple going after more people on the design patents but claiming that is the "working concept" for their vaporware Geek Wave is epic stupidity.

Rangers end the second up 1 -- rooting for them right up until they face off with the Bruins in the next round.

The ponzi scheme continues. Apple should sue the crap out of them given the way that player looks.

But, but, but, Alexandra Daddario!

Agree 100% on the FOTM (flagship of the month) plan at Audeze. EDIT after seeing Rob's comment: What about the LCD-X or LCD-XC? I just looked at their site and they do price them lower so maybe it is meant to be some kind of lower level alternative. But the 1-2-3 releases all happened pretty damn close together. I think Ric was just cringing about the HD700 because it is awful. I haven't heard the HD700 and have no intentions of changing that status.

Does Rask realize he's not supposed to lay down on the ice all the time?! Fuck me

Fuck!

Oh, yeah, and Emelin is a pussy. Power play goal time!

It was looking like a possible blood bath at first but the Bruins woke up and spent some of the second half of the period in the Habs zone.

I was just wishing you were here!

I got the surly bartender to put the game on in the back room and grabbed a Pliny figuring it was universal. Habs scored within seconds. D'oh!

Fuck it. I'm going to Toronado right now to watch the Broons. Maybe they have something from NE on tap...

They won even though you watched?!

because . . .

If I were going to Sundance or Cannes, I wouldn't mind a Filson, but I just go to courts and clients and such.

I have lots of Red Oxx HC Travel Team gear for traveling but their briefcases are too rugged and unsophisticated looking for my business. Plus, those outside pockets are a joke for a briefcase:

Ouch. What nylon bag -- not interested in leather bags -- should I have gotten that would be worthy of theft and explosive deterrents?
