  1. Given that this is not out until tomorrow, I am listening to Things Falling Apart. Good stuff.
  2. Funny, I think of him as a muckraker and an ass clown.

    PLEEEEZE DEW EET! > So what's wrong with a little ban now and again. J/K, but the following passage made me laugh and then throw up a little in my mouth last night in response to Billy's question about the other silly tattoo on his chest:

    A non-fat what not, of course.

    LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!! No, I mean really, look at me.
  6. http://www.head-fi.org/forums/4143527-post418.html More idiocy from JL. They really cannot help themselves, but they claim the Jennifer Crock poster is a farce.

    http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f11/im-local-celeb-320825/ What a fucking douche. "Look at me, I'm a local celeb!" Shoot me in the fucking head if I ever call myself a "celeb" of any type.
  8. Curiouser and curiouser. Even their idiotic webpage is beyond belief, but that Jennifer Crock post is so amazing that if it is her I am in awe. Given that it was edited rather deleted I imagine it is possible that she did it in a fit, even though it is odd that the JENA Labs poster did not do it.

    It's in Fairfax on Center St. across from the Iron Springs Brew Pub.
  10. Sorry to miss yours yesterday hungrych. Are you really only 17? Hope you had some fun. recstar24 is 26! Happy birthday Ryan, hope you have a good one!
  11. Intelligent choice! Don't forget it is tube regulated also. In fact, I am currently jamming some Albert King on SACD from the EMM Labs to the SDS-XLR with Sylvania Bad Boys for in and 6BL7GTs for out. Oh, and the cans are my balanced Equinox PS-1s that I have been running in for days. Loving every second. I am hoping that The Maher Menacing Millett and the TTVJ Millett give the SDS-XLR a run for the money. More thoughts to follow next week from SoFla.

    Now that is funny! Actually, there's this drive-through coffee kiosk in a parking lot over in Marin county with these high school and college age girls that run out and take your orders and bring you your lattes and what not. If only Mikhail were cuter and femaler that wouldn't be such a bad thing... I think I will laugh every time you use that line. It KILLS!
  13. I like the concept but I think Inadequacy Quotient is more accurate in his case, and it is off the charts. He is constantly compensating for his many, many inadequacies and looking for negative attention just reinforces them so it is quite a vicious little circle jerk. How's that for some pop psychology babble? \
  14. Back for more http://www.head-fi.org/forums/4134375-post278.html
  15. I'm slow, and never really cared much about his other personae before. Don't get me wrong, I wanted his ass out of here but it is a lot easier to avoid or never come across assholes over at the other place.
  16. Nope. Just trolling away with shitty non-answers
  17. I was just about to post that I believe morph201 to be DogFish. Morph used the Dogfish Head Brewery logo as his avatar after all, and his fucking smarmy profile had DogShit smeared all over it. And his yahoo messenger is "d_stewar" so can a mod check to see if that is anything like his email or whatever he had in his account when a member here?
  18. Have a great time getting [re]acquainted with all your gear Steve! That sounds like so much fun, that I plan to meet my Beta next Thursday! Hmm, better confirm with thrice that it will be in Florida when I get there!

    The big sleep is the only way to fix a cat. Nice to hear some actual listening is going on over there Nate. The amp is going to be a big hit at the 'Jam and we're all looking forward to hearing it. Now pack it up extra careful-like and get ready for the trip!
  20. Looks kinda like a bumper to me. Cool integrated winch in there too.
  21. Did you happen to save markl's original post from 1:35pm? It ended with a winky and cool smiley at the end of a one-sentence last para.
  22. http://www.head-fi.org/forums/4128967-post131.html markl joins the fray with a knock against Alex. Nice work, asshat. EDIT: I meant Asshat MOT who does potentially competitive work.
  23. Thanks, I assumed as much.
  24. The Jena Labs story is riddled with holes and makes no sense at all. The main thing that is clear -- without even calling Mikhial -- is that they make a huge deal on their super-ironic web page about how the prior modder did not remove the transducers from the housing and only did the wire splice. So we know for sure that Mikhail did go in there and wreck the voice coil. I am curious whether Alex thinks that Mikhail could have pushed the wire in and done any of the damage he found, but I think that JL's own summary of the events shows that they did it. I am also curious if the R10s had Mikhail's upgraded cable on them when sent to JL, because that would kind of undermine their story that BoilingFrog "deliberately did not inform" them about the earlier recable. What, they are such R10 experts that they didn't notice the cable was changed? Another thing that burns me up is that JL's email (copied from morph201's post and pasted below) attempts to say that BoilingFrog had some odd concern about intermittent sound or something before they did their initial work and that he pestered them about this. They said he was being a pain and questioning the sound of his $5000+ cans (even sending a second pair for comparison) but then later on in the email they claim that they did a voice coil repair the first time but never mentioned it to BoilingFrog because it was such a "trivial operation." They also never mentioned this as a possible reason for any of his problems even though he was complaining of bad sound and breakups, which they confirmed the second time they worked on them. They then "repaired" the voice coil by soldering some wire to it, and AGAIN made no mention to BoilingFrog: "In any event, the defect that we could see externally on the drive unit was addressed and repaired in a manner as reasonable as possible without fanfare or mention at our end." Give me a break. Throughout this whole thing, their story is that they found this serious defect and NEVER pointed to it as a possible cause of issues while BF was hassling them for explanations and refunds?! Come on. Here is the email from morph201's post on HF:
