    Gilmore Girls dvds on sale
  2. I have only browsed the web with it and loaded up a TV show, but it is quite nice. That will probably the extent of its use. I might install the Squeezebox app
  3. Toshiba Thrive (8 gb) Strolled into Best Buy an hour before closing last night and asked if by off chance they had any Thrives left. Got BS'ed a few times until I found someone I knew that still works there (11 years and counting!) and he hooked me up with a secret warehouse leftover

    It looks like the HD600 are returning in about an hour and a half. Anyone know how much they were the first time around? They are probably my favorite non-stupid expensive dynamic headphones. Also Glenn Gould Goldberg Variations is coming up. That is a very nice set. Besides a $200 Toshiba 8 gb Thrive, I haven't come across anything on amazon that is a must have for me.
  5. It looks so good in person, you might not want to stick it in a closet
  6. No problems with it so far. I've only had it since the summer though. I've owned a Marantz receiver the one before the Marantz pre/pro replaced and it was rock solid as well.
  7. Not sure how good current NAD build quality is outside their Master series. I have been reading lots of unhappy posts about their regular products. I'm using a Marantz AV7005 which I like quite a bit, $100 over your budget new.
  8. Nice deal. How has that been up for a week with no buyers
  9. Going to make a video of the Loricraft cleaning a record. It is a beauty to watch in action and doesn't require earplugs
  10. I've used my friend's and the armwand machines are pretty good, he thinks it was an upgrade from his VPI 17. I've certainly got great results with vinyl I couldn't get sufficiently quiet on my own. Some videos on Youtube of DIY machines, but I lack the skillz and tools
  11. Used $800 Gonna sell my VPI 16.5 which will help funds
  12. I would hope it would be. Man has known about H2O2 for a long time But did you know it's also in many of our cells?
  13. Yes I am aware, but see my post and Birgir's posts with the screw info. It's the bias pin losing contact with the driver when the screws become loose. Regularly tightening them should make them just as reliable as any other electrostat headphone. I don't care if you chose to believe a Stax dealer with no real evidence as to their failure over someone who has taken apart and repaired many pairs. I'm just stating what he told me in PM. The Japan price is way over inflated compared to what you can get them for on Headfi. (The Japanese are hardcore collectors, they love vintage electronics and vinyl, like old mono Blue Notes)
  14. Birgir has taken apart many a set which is why I am led to believe him over hearsay.
  15. Birgir I hope you don't mind if I share what you PM'ed me. It is screws 1, 3, 5 that are the important ones that should be tightened (but not too tight).

    HBD JP11801!

    Happy birthday John
  17. I didn't even know you could extend the Best Buy product service plan and I worked there
  18. I was expecting the SR-Ω to be really bright, they are pretty nice tonally. Interesting phones, I haven't figured out how they have that "big" sound without any upper mid or treble emphasis.
  19. I would be interested in Chicago (3F) depending on the date.
  20. Sorry Mikhail has that patent

    That native resolution would destroy my graphics card in any modern game But I love IPS panels, I would never go back to the other junky ones
