I think you're one title off if you're worried about quality. Actually, Bond basically kept UA afloat for years so I guess they wanted some bookends of the series based on the year this came out. The founders:

Which tubes to make an Extreme Platinum turn into a β22?
Okay, maybe not, but can anyone who's familiar with the Extreme topography suggest a reasonably affordable tube combination for a fast, neutral presentation? Stock or with ECC adapter? Any help would be greatly appreciated. The Extreme Plat may not end up working with the HD800s, but I want to give it a shot as it works well with my other phones.

Grado HF-2 thread
HF2s arrived this morning. No major cosmetic 1ssues besides the one. Felt like an expectant father counting fingers and toes and hit 20ish. Cord strangely pinched a couple mm above Y on both sides and stiffer cord punches me in the jaw when I turn my head, but the former is at least symmetrical and the latter is all part of feeling the music. Bowls appear to be two parts (inner/outer ring) which I don't remember in the past (but it's been a bit of time since I owned a "bowl" Grado). Has this always been the case? Recently a co-worker bought a pair of SR60s and I nostalgically thought of when I started this hobby. Bought a used pair of SR80is as beaters, and maybe not surprisingly, really did not like their signature as all. Having the HF2s arrive a week later, and sound so great, is a welcome reversal.

Macbook and Touch Wifi Connections-NOT!
Have you tried turning off your wireless security, seeing if you can connect and then reintroducing? As Grawk said I'd go WAP/WAP2. Is your 'Airport' an Airport Express, Airport Extreme or you're using Apples generic term for router? Can you see the device through OS Xs Airport Utility? OS X is actually much more forgiving when connecting to networks than some other OSs. It was hell connecting T-mobile G1/Android on some networks (isn't compatible with WPA Enterprise, won't connect with dual WPA/WEP, etc.).

True enough. Almost made up for that birth scene. Hey, what happened to the spoiler tag?

At this point I probably watch 80% of the DVDs and downloads on my 13" MacBook in bed, even though there's a large monitor and Audioengines feet away and a much better dedicated video setup in the next room. Maybe it's the films I tend to drift towards (no, not that type), but it does seem a video equivalent to headphones. Intimacy and all that. Plus gives a bit of the feeling of sneaking a book here and there even if it's only a few scenes before falling asleep. Course it's also responsible for getting to work a bit late occasionally.

HD800? Another rumor?
My biggest problem with the review is he seems to begrudgingly use phones and that taints the entire "compromised" experience. Kinda felt like someone reviewing a CDP, when he only endorses computer based media servers. And doesn't let it go with a simple single line up front.

OPPO BDP-83
Yeah, thanks. Good read. Side note: this phrase though caught my attention: Have we really moved that far already? I mean considering how many titles aren't available on Blu-ray (not to mention old titles that likely would benefit little)? Man, I've bought over 60 titles in DVD box sets recently (many new to DVD and far from, if ever, on Blu-ray). That phrase, from someone who obviously loves film, is a little scary.

Grado HF-2 thread
I did at CJ. Preferred bowls by a large margin. Midrange loses a little. Flats were too aggressive BTW, though it looks like atothex disagrees.
