    Stanley Kubrick 7 HD Film iTunes Collection $39 v. $103. https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie-collection/stanley-kubrick-7-film-collection/id903208664?ign-mpt=uo=4
  2. ^ Funny, cause the only Momentums I've ever heard was at your house (Shelly's). Part 2 (I guess): http://parttimeaudiophile.com/2014/08/10/pono-backers-listening-party-in-san-francisco-8114-part-two/ All audio events should be categorized as: "the headphone and non-headphone portions"!
  3. Keep them coming Mikey! Which were the good Mr. Mister songs again? http://youtu.be/ZeGntbLdUb0
  4. Just finished. I'm caught. Certainly curious where it's headed, but what did everyone think of the soundtrack choices? https://soundcloud.com/milanrecords/cliff-martinez-son-of-placenta-previa-from-the-knick-ost
  5. I was thinking how strange it was proving the point of a high res/"100% music" ecosystem with Momentums.
  6. Haven't read, but the ones I have that focused on the first couple episodes have been respectively disappointed. The often trustworthy David Bianculli says stick with it - http://www.npr.org/2014/08/07/338603595/stick-with-the-knick-a-medical-drama-with-amazing-inventions?utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=theo
  7. First review? Pono Backers Listening Party in San Francisco, 8/1/14: Part One http://parttimeaudiophile.com/2014/08/09/pono-backers-listening-party-in-san-francisco-8114-part-one/
  8. Let us know. Also $.68 U-haul Small Box sale FTW.
  9. Peter Sculthorpe RIP
  10. Anyone else excited? "The Knick" stars Clive Owen as Dr. John Thackery, an ambitious surgeon who leads the staff at the Knickerbocker Hospital in New York in the early 1900s. http://youtu.be/r_xvw-_YJSo
  11. About a week away. Anyone else?
  12. Thanks you two. I may go with the U-haul. Mikey we have similar sized collections (if you remove one of the digits). Dusty congrats on the Dino Jr.
  13. Speaking of moneys, anyone know cheaper (or better) options than the Container Store Supreme Crate for vinyl moving and possible storage? Google searches have resulted in mostly [pre-vinyl recovery-ish] dead links.

    If anyone is looking for an Emo Stealth 6 (and can get their site to load), it's on sale. Stealth 6 was $549 each now $399.
  15. Ah maybe take the McRoskey off the list. I agree on the sale wait recommendations, but I'll also add that spending crazy money on a mattress/box springs probably makes much more long term sense than almost everything else we discuss buying on this site, no? Restful sleep, a third of your life, and all that. Not as sexy as audio gear or a car, but c'mon it's a bed... [Marilyn Monroe not included]

  17. Have a friend who bought and sent back several mattresses before settling on a Tempur-pedic. That said I went old school with a McRoskey and love it (and helped my back). If you're going to be in the Bay Area anytime soon you could test at the showroom (above their warehouse). http://youtu.be/tDKfGMPOyeU
  18. Don't you have other things to worry about?
  19. If only I could make Julie London less lonely. And next...

  21. It just debuted yesterday at Michael Moore’s Traverse City Film Festival, but I couldn't find any plans beyond that. Could get picked up during, but if it's like his great Up Series it will be on TV in Britain and in limited run in US theaters (and then DVD & PBS airing). A little info here: http://insidemovies.ew.com/2014/07/31/michael-apted-talks-bending-the-light/
  22. Just drink enough to counter-spin.
  23. Bending the Light. Posting here instead of the trailers thread.
