  1. Woo hoo! Have a good one!
  2. Went ahead with the 50" g25. Came with one of those free sound bar HT 2.1 HT setups with a wireless sub. Hopefully will get it next week.
  3. Yup the f1 is super picky. But when mated with the right speaker aka Lowther the results are amazing. Still pondering the f1j upgrade but damn NP is asking for $500 and several weeks (which I acknowledge is commensurate with the labor probably involved)
  4. I'm stuck too. It literally is near the very end but it won't move any further on the iPad status bar. iTunes is stuck too
  5. How are the black levels on your s2 postie? I know I shouldn't put too much credence into the instore best buy demos, but the s2 didn't look too hot, whereas the one g25 display they had looked significantly better. Of course the g25 appeared to be on an isolated setup, whereas the s2 was setup along a wall with doZens of other tvs.
  6. Yup, just a nice implementation of your standard SET 2a3. As for specs, Craig would be the one, if he cares to divulge. Should be plenty fine for the LCD-2. I would recommend getting underneath the amp and changing the output taps to 16 ohms for a bit more power transfer, but doubt you would hear a sonic difference.
  7. Anyone know whats up with the delayed 4.2update? Last I wad was they delayed it due to a bug causing the wifi to stop working.
  8. Thanks postie. Currently going back and forth between the g25 and s2 series, 50 inch. Gut says to just go with the g25 with vier a cast, USB connection, lan connection and the better black contrast ratio
  9. Anyone who has bought a plasma or any HDTV through amazon or other online retailer, would love to hear your thoughts on the process. The idea of amazon shipping something like a plasma tv to me seems frightening but would be comforting to hear that it may actually be a smooth safe and no hassle process.

    Canjam was one of the most enjoyable and thoroughly fulfilling things I have ever done. To be a part of something that brought people together is truly special. It would be a very sad day if there were no more independent canjams, but I obviously understand it takes a few devoted/somewhat crazy individuals to step up and unfortunately we all have lives that may not permit us to step up. Reading your comments also kind of conveys that it is unlikely new leadership will arise from the current generation of huddler fi. Me sad.
  11. No, not really, because he is acknowledging that posty is awesome.
  12. Yup the G25 is what appears to be my #1 choice. Will also look at the S1/S2 series.
  13. Postyand Jacob, is there a specific model # panny plasma I should be looking at? The g25 seems to be a good bet and are offered at really nice prices currently.
  14. Wasn't really considering plasma, in fear of the whole image burn thing. I also didn't realize the price was pretty close to LCD if not cheaper in some cases.
  15. Finally looking at our first HDTV purchase. Budget of around $1000 and looking at 46 -55 inch. More concerned with picture quality versus random add ons and extras. Sony Bravia 46ex500 seems to be a decent bet at 900. Feel free to throw anything else out there.
  16. Should have had one already. Just ask and they will send you one.

    Jp I think I am with dusty on this, but you posting those vendors implies that you feel our issue is with vendors not being represented, which you can clearly see why a vendor would be left out. The issue is the apparent lack of respect for headphone audio from a coverage standpoint, and for the, to clump all headphone audio as Ray Smuels is sort of condescending. If headphone audio was important to them they would take the time for another paragraph or two with maybe another picture or two. I don't think dusty wanted or expected some lavish spread but merely a show of respect from a media standpoint that headphone audio is legitimate.

    Yes. (...not Really anything I can add, sums it up right there...)

    I would still take that stereophile coverage over the 6moons shill I mean meet impressions of canjam.
  20. Sorry for crappy pic, but in real life the lines and edges are smooth, the older version was somewhat jaggedy.
  21. The flying girl on mine looks good, or much better than the first versions, but I am a relatively recent jh13 owner well past when they upgraded their equipment.
  22. The 3a/16 demo at can jam, while not perfect, was pretty jaw dropping in two areas: 1) transient impact and bass punch. 2) actual soundstage with focus and crazy imaging The bass hit your chest like a jackhammer, and overall the sound was really impactful. It reminded me of a nice k1000 setup in that regard. To hear soundstaging from an IEM where it was layered in front and around you, with incredibly precise focus and clarity, was pretty remarkable. There might have been some weird midrange funkiness, and I am not quite sure whether they have all their DSP stuff all figured out, but I think there is good Eason to believe it will be a quality product.
  23. Vicki, I remember you talked about using your MacBook as a source (optical with spdif adapter). Should sound great.
  24. Where?
  25. Gracias.
