Stretch is smarter, richer, and handsomer than me. You should listen to him before me. That said, were I in your position I would do some soul searching and find a way to convince myself that I liked another, cheaper thing better.

You have received excellent advice, and batteries are not fungible components. OWC and iFixit are the ne plus ultra in this category, especially because of the wonderful videos they produce, which show your specific machine and the parts they sent you being installed in it. There are not many things in this world on which I may speak with authority, but I was an Apple genius and repaired Apple devices 9-5 for months. iFixit and OWC have parts equivalent or identical to Apple's own replacement parts, and I would occasionally watch their videos at work if I hadn't done a particular repair in a while. We had them bookmarked in the Genius Bar.

FUCK. ME. $33k for the DAC without a transport? Another $4k for a USB board? Switzerland, at what are you playing?

Very excited! I'll have to grab one and build it.

I had the best week of my season, and Tood still would have beat me. It feels like he drafted alone for three or four rounds before the rest of us started. That said, this week's unexpected podium position belongs to Brent, who doubtless spent all his fantasy capital for the rest of the season on a single game.

Drew Brees, what in the hell?!

Yeah! Tempo marks are just, like, your opinion, man. I know my largo.

Hoş geldiniz, Sechtdamon. Do you have a link to the patent filing?

I'm doing away with pre-recorded music entirely. Just sheet music for me, and I'll read it in bed.

They sell Asian groceries, and those groceries are uniformly delicious. Unfortunately, my car got plowed into every goddamn time I parked there, and it did little to dispel negative racial stereotypes about driving. If you need the freshest ginger, take a fucking cab.

Fuckin' China, am I right?

Looking at it on a full size screen now, I would agree with you. I've not actually taken the protective mesh filter off, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was a single unit. It would also not surprise me if the driver mounts were altered slightly so that an HD800s driver will not fit in an HD 800 frame. Not a bad idea, and they likely have my money anyways.

Larry, it's always refreshing to hear you talk medicine. "I have no other symptoms of too much opioids" Sounds like things are not as good as they could be, but far better than where they were a few months ago. McKenna seems to be doing very well, or at least she's not letting injury and pain stand between her and what she wants to do. That's really encouraging news. Keep at it, man. You're still here, and the line is trending up.

It will be like putting an HD600 grille and cable on your HD580 all over again!

I'm hoping I'll be able to pick up a spare resonator from the beloved Sennheiser parts store.

My late week line changes were all rewarding, but my core team all shit the bed.

The HD800 really is a better headphone than the HD650, though I would argue that it's more a successor to the AKG K1000 than the HD650.

I hope they're excellent. I fear they're a black HD800 with the anaxilus mod and a useless cable.

I dig the blue, too. I've not actually seen a candy apple green before, but clearly it is stunning.

Says the owner of the largest headphone Grado ever made.

I've lusted for this car since I was a wee boy: Luckily for me, it's a pretty attainable dream. To me, a more beautiful car has never been made. Thanks for the picture, Jeff!

Happy birthday to the only 'caser who visited me in China!

I knew this day would come. I have dreaded it.

Seriously, how are you affording your mortgage payments? Word on the street is that Brazil is getting hit hard.

I guess ESPN got my letter addressed to Santa. No matter, seeing Brent's heart break is the reason for the season.
