wtf? I hope this isn't the big announcement. Sennheiser to unveil new corporate design at CES 2010 Sennheiser, one of the world’s leading producers of microphones, headphones and wireless transmission systems has evolved its corporate design that is to be unveiled at this year's CES show. At the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) the audio specialist will be introducing itself for the first time with a new design. “The new corporate design brings our profile into focus and is an important step within the framework of the brand strategy. Throughout this process it was important for us to ensureSennheiser ’s three brand values – premium quality, passion and progression – are reflected even more clearly and further enhance the brand,” says Susanne Seidel, President Global Marketing at Sennheiser. The Hamburg Design Agency Syndicate was responsible for both creative and consultancy work on the project. The reworked corporate design will gradually be implemented across all of Sennheiser’s communication collateral. The Sennheiser in-store retail display programme will be unveiled to a larger international public using numerous modules, including interactive displays, at the CES 2010. During the Consumer Electronics Show which runs from the 7th to the 10th of January 2010, Sennheiser can be found in the South Hall, Stand No. 21240 of Las Vegas’ exhibition centre.

I feel a vegetative state coming on for the same reason.

Now playing: The Antlers -- Hospice

Damn I am glad I didn't have any sandwiches that weekend.

Mayonnaise? He did say "pee," didn't he?

You stopped doing that before DanJam, though, right?

I definitely made rainbows on the TV with magnets and I think I left them there too long one time. Oh, and a friend of my son's did in fact poke in the dust caps on my Gallo speakers but I was able to pop them out with balled up duct tape, sticky side out.

Liking it, just not up to loving yet. Don't rush me. [Monkey]You're not the boss of me![/Monkey]

You should.

Happy birthday! Cheers

Giving it another listen because so far I don't have the love.

I also like the fact that he said never more than 2g VTF to show he wasn't stressing it out. Cool, glad to hear a first-hand impression. The guy at the Analog Room told JP that the PC-1 (12g) is great with VPI/Aries need a heavier cart than the Skala or the Koetsu (each 9g). Todd likes the Titan over the PC-1 in side-by-side listening on the HRX but he still thinks the PC-1 is killer. Should be fun, especially since I have two arm tubes now so switching can be practically instantaneous.

$100 seems like a bargain.

Oops, offer accepted. PC-1 vs. Lyra Skala vs. Koetsu Rosewood Platinum coming soon. Need to get a Lyra Titan i into the mix, but will probably sell one of the losers before doing that.

Lloyd Cole & the Commotions -- Easy Pieces (Polydor UK Vinyl) Lloyd Cole & the Commotions -- Lost Weekend (Extended Edition 12") (Vinyl) The extended edition isn't all that exciting but the two non-album songs on the B side are good: Big World and Nevers End. For CD owners, those apparently are usually included but aren't on the original LP.

I kinda sorta made an inquiry/offer on an Air Tight PC-1 cartridge on Agon. I got a second tonearm and I need to have some options for some showdowns. :palm:

That almost seems to assume there was a time he wasn't boring.

The Catheads -- Hubba (vinyl)

Old 97's -- Fight Songs Miles Davis -- Complete On The Corner Sessions

Have a good one Renato! Cheers!
