Cool - my buddies play a tourney about once a month, 10-20 buy in. Played a lot when I was in vegas, just low limit stuff at 2/4 and 3/6. Have been playing online a lot as well.
-
Just curious - tkam is already clue in my little poker hobby. If you are, what kind of games do you play, where, how much, etc.

Here's a better one
-
Love this movie
-
Yup. Pretty much. I cannot live without my daily head-fi fix. Can you? ...oh wait...I forgot
-
Nope just don't feel like sharing it with you, that's all
-
Nope, got a courtesy warning. I know we like to spew conspiracy again and again about headfi, unfortunately in this scenario I had future warnings before banning and a factual, objective toned message after banning. No not really
-
yup - I got a PM message afterwards and when I try to post or reply a warning pops up with the reason. It's all good, if anything I feel I am closer to being a true headcaser now.
-
yup "forum guest" is basically a euphemism for "temporarily banned" - you still have access to the boards, private messaging, but cannot reply to, create threads, or search threads.

I would highly suggest listening to a R10 before splunking down the cash. Its either hit or miss for listeners. Some really love the sound, some abhor it. If your okay with taking a shot and reselling, you shouldnt lose much, if any. The sony sound is a bit on the brighter side. Not as bad as the CD3000's or SA5000's, as the midrange can be quite warm and enticing. The soundstage, while huge, is somewhat artificial, as you will find every song will have that huge cavernous feeling to it. If your okay with leaner bass then so be it.

When do you consider an amp "high end"

True - you can ask him to do a HD2, like what he made for JP #'s -

Umm...yeah, B-52, duh -
No I didn't, why? because I'm an idiot. Too buys running around, I literally had maybe 30 minutes of total listening time
-
the W5000 is definitely more fatiguing in the short term than the L3000. I can listen to th L3000 long term and not get annoyed, a miracle indeed. Seriously, its a great can, and I would love to have on if I could afford it.
-
Its okay. I got to hear a week before at Chris' place. Wasn't really anything special, my little EC/SS had more drive and opened things up more. The Krell was kind of bland sounding. It's rare though
-
I have noticed that Comcast and DirectTv impart their own sonic signature. DirectTv has a very light, airy sound. Comcast is more extended at the frequency extremes with more weight. There is more there there
-
I think it just hit me what they do. You call them, then for 30 seconds they blast some electromagnetic interference buzzing signal through your phone, that is supposed to remove any EMI from your surrounding electronics. Then your soundstage opens up, hahahahaha suckers
-
Yeah i believe the iron is all lundahl. Not cheap thats for sure. I think 600 is conversative considering it has its outputs and inputs transformer coupled. The best iron isnt cheap, thats for sure. My moth s2a3 uses electra-print iron, TM3kB, each transformer potted is about $200. Tango iron can run you from 250-400 per trannie considering they are out of production. There's a sweet deal for a pair electraprint trannies 15k:300 ohms parafeed on audio circle for $100 if anyone is interested. Might make a cool project.

My vinyl source sounds better then my digital source

RSA XR-10B!!!! yay!!!! -
Man I wish there was a way to properly convey tone and sarcasm on the internet, would really keep me out of trouble. Jacob, so your coming down for the meet?
-
Oh be quiet you know what I mean, I'm not sure if its been officially confirmed that Jude is filipino. Man Jacob you sure have been messing with me lately. Maybe that should be my new custom title - has no freaking idea what nationality he is. I guess if you want to be technical, my nationality is American (yee haw apple pie chicago peeezaaah).
-
Yeah I agree. I do remember Todd's amp, it was that bottlehead sex amp, sounded good with the RS-1's. Kevin was actually pretty cool with me at the meet, who would later admonish me on the boards for my taste in music, but I'm willing to look past that. The food was great...and yes his daughter is beautiful. In fact she is really fiiiinnnneee. Actually, I look like a younger Jude. We're both filipino (I think), that's what others have said as well.
-
Woo hoo! Jacob, I would love to have you down here, I think that would be awesome. And if you need a place to crash for the night, you are more than welcome to stay in my guest room at the apartment.

That was the one at Ray's, January 05 correct? I remember seeing you there, I was very new to head-fi so I am sure you don't remember me. That was fun, tons of people showed up. You, Todd_R, tyrion, I remember lots of out of towners, in addition to a slew of local headfiers. Tuberoller was still there as well, go figure
