Quest for the holey Grado? This one could have Harrison Ford teaming up with Tom Hanks.

Well, are you trying to build suspense, or do we get to know what fucking saw it is you chose?

I've heard of it being done. If you're only planning on using speaker amps it's not a problem. Might effect resale a bit, but that too is really not a big issue.

Al, you may have a different kind of drilling and dark space in mind.

I concur. Add duct tape and a bottle of Chloroform, and you've got yourself a Reksy travel kit.

DSS - 200 CD Case - DSS200CD-SILVER - Buy.com Free shipping too. Just bought two.

Where ever did they source enough hot glue for the line arrays? Selling is so 2009. The new hip trend is to give them away. First dibs!

That's a lot of porn!

Happiest of happy Birthdays ol' chap. Have a steak and kidney pie and a pint on me, or something of the sort.

I just bought a new Porter Cable 18v Li-Ion set w/impact gun. The impact gun is really sweet for driving 3" or longer screws, but eats up battery life a lot quicker than the drill. Most of the new 18v Li-Ion drills are as lightweight now as the old 14.4v used to be. I too like the LED light for working in dark spaces.

Why not. I'll take your K1000 when you give up on headphones.

All in all it sounds like good news Nate. Glad to hear it.

I believe you're missing something there Sir. Perhaps the shovel cut it off.

Are you impugning my masculinity Sir?

Wish I were there to lend a hand. I actually love assembling tools. Can't wait to see the new place Marc!

The donkey show isn't all it's cracked up to be. I saw one in Matamoros when I was in college. I puked. Marc, nice saw buddy! I may end up farming out some re-saw work to you. Nate, nice saw as well. I'm as happy when my buddies buy tools, as I am when I buy them. Didn't see that one coming.

It might be a good idea to introduce yourself first. Read your welcome PM, it'll save you lots of grief.

I experienced my first military funeral when my own Father died five years back. It is indeed an emotional experience. Sorry for your loss.

Love him or hate him (I happen to love him), he really does have a voice that lends itself to many genres. There are a few real standouts here...'You Make Me Feel Brand New' with Mary J. Blige, 'Tracks Of My Tears' with Smokey and 'Let It Be Me' with Jennifer Hudson.

Listening through the Krell KAV-400xi now. This is the very definition of synergy! This amp rocks my socks! If the F5 is at all similar in sound sig. I'll be a very happy guy. If not a 400xi is in my future. 400xi + Maggies would put a perpetual smile on Dr. Woods face.

Actually it's a Fitz Black Clover cable, I'm listening now. Very nice! I'm driving them with the β22 now, will switch over to the Krell later. These are balanced the way I like them, not sure the treble is hot enough for Marc, but to my ear they're just right. I'll get used to them for a few days before playing with the damping. Again, nice work Don!

Every properly damped ortho I've listened to needed lots of power. I doubt the Xcan would even come close to opening the LCD-1 up.

Only a Lawyer could get a Dentist to make a house call. Glad your bone has been pulled out...erm, uhm, you know what I mean.

Hmmm, I wouldn't call the pair I heard (Tony's) as overly midbassy, but I imagine what's upstream could play a big role in that. From the β22/Original CDP they were very well balanced. From memory (25 years ago) the YH1000 was indeed the best Ortho out of the box. I'd love to tweak one today, but the insane prices will not see that happening. As for the HD800...I found them to be quite a competent headphone when I had them in house, but they lacked emotion for me. I imagine the pairing with the β22 might have been just too dry. I was very impressed with the Audeze LCD-1 that Don modded for Marc!

How did you find a NOS pair? Congrats!
