  1. Want. I very much like the Rega digital sound, based on the Apollos I've heard.
  2. Sure, but is that a reason to ban the original? I think the trouble I have with this is that the word is banned without respect to the context of the song's lyrics. I mean, the song ridicules people who use the word. Banning it seems to me to be a step in the direction of ignoring intolerance rather than fighting against it.
  3. Gay slur in lyrics disqualifies Dire Straits hit from Canadian radio play - The Globe and Mail I'm pissed off about this. This song was the first one I ever played air-guitar to at 6 or 7 years old, and it probably was a big influence in my calling to musicianship.
  4. Isolation? Stay off the internet for awhile. Good sound? I know nothing about this. Neither does anyone else here.
  5. source: Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal I think I just became addicted to another webcomic. This guy is brilliant.
  6. That is wonderful.
  7. Merry Christmas, one and all! I mostly lurk here, but I learn a lot and I like the character(s) of this place. Best of the season to y'all!
  8. Pour on some brandy and strike a match,... Oh wait, I thought we were talking about finishing pudding preparations.
  9. I live to serve, m'lord.
  10. I thought it was F - fire dept., A - ambulance, P - police. I'd rather believe Reks though.
  11. I recommend regular prostate exams past the age of 35.
  12. I don't know about JHs, but I have trouble maintaining a seal with my custom musicians' earplugs. In the absence of being able to transform them to silicon, I've found that smearing a dab of petroleum jelly around on them prior to use helps a lot.
  13. I suggest KSC75 and spell-checking. Correct punctuation wouldn't go amiss either, but I suspect multi-tasking may be a bit much for you.
  14. I wish all y'all Americans a Happy Thanksgivin'er.
  15. I'm going to get a strong drink and come back to see if this thread looks any different.

  17. ) :-0 ------->) )
  18. Read boomana's article in the wiki page of head-fi.org.
  19. Beauty, thanks! That spells it out about as simply as possible.
  20. Uh, I guess I'll just use some big ones and see how hot they get then.
  21. So, I want to build an L-Pad based headphone adapter so I can connect headphones to the speaker outputs of an amp. This is mainly for S&Gs, but if it works great then I have the added bonus of having my innate and poverty-enhanced cheapness vindicated. I was planning to use this information from Meier to optimize the impedance for my headphones: http://www.meier-audio.homepage.t-online.de/ - click on "tips and tricks" and look under the impedance optimization title. One thing I can't figure out (yes, I'm challenged with these types of calculations) is how many watts the resistors should need to be able to disspate. Let's assume I have an amp that maxes out around 50W into 8 ohms. Anyone?
  22. Bowls. Haven't heard it with flats.
