  1. a child's laughter?
  2. I said "somebody" build some sweet gears, then "we" feast off the profit. I'm more of an idea man anyway grawk, a leader of men.
  3. I'm looking forward to listening to the album this evening. If only I could manage to pry the Justice album out of my CDP. I had no idea, but when an album carries with it an overload of sheer coolness, it can cause bonding between the CD and one's system on a level deeper even the the subatomic, meaning pure cosmic spiritual soul energy. Well the Justice CD has so much pure cosmic spiritual soul energy my system won't give it up. I think its about to when I'm yelling at it, but then it starts playing and tells me "just one more time jack, then we'll listen to the new radiohead." But then the first track kicks in and I'm sharing in the universal groove, and then I don't want to listen to anything else.
  4. i said we should have super special sales action. like somebody should make some sweet gear to sell, then we can all line our pockets with the profits and feast off the bounty.
  5. I'm waiting around a bit to see about the new MKII. Either it will be good enough to snatch up, or its appearance will make used O2s pop up all over on the cheap. Anyway, I just dumped a lot of cash into my dynamic rig (Balanced Beta22), so I really don't need any new gear right now.
  6. Somebody should build a super special like gears for a special sales action. So head-case can get all rich, and we feast off the bounty.
  7. I really think I would like the O2.
  8. Well, I think "rock music" is a loaded term when it comes to audio discussion. When I say rock, I don't mean modern brickwalled pro-tooled rangeless recordings, nor do I mean piss-poor Led Zeppelin remasters (not that I like Zeppelin anyway, or the Stones for that matter). I mean more nuanced and breathe-y rock like Genesis or King Crimson, or the analog stylings of Ryan Adams. But on the other hand, even when a rock recording may not be the best recorded and/or mastered, like Grateful Dead soundboards or old Fall recordings, I don't want any false slam added to the mix to make it sound more "alive". So long as my gear portrays what is on the recording accurately, that is what gets me off.
  9. Nothing makes me want to rock out like my RS-1s. More and more I'm coming to admire headphones that sound like great headphones, not like mediocre speakers. For all their faults, Grados do something that my 22L's can't. More and more I'm turning to my speakers for classical works, while the once lauded HD650s hang forlornly on the rack.
  10. we do need electrostat luv 'round here. thats why I'm glad spritzer showed up.
  11. yeh i forgot its hot as hell son, damn. plus when i lose power like three times a week i have to ride a bike to work the generator and listen to my cans, which splains teh swet.
  12. thanks all, it scrubbed right off with a damp cloth. now why the hell would that only show up on my K340? plus its not like I pour sweat while being sedentary listening to headphones.
  13. hey, my head is clean! i rinse it at least once every week or two and get in a good scrub with dish soap for holidays. plus on friday nights i coat it with only the finest vegetable oils.
  14. This was not here when I bought these from jpak. Now I'm looking to sell these, and I see this white grunge on my headband: Is this something normal that happens to the headband? It doesn't seem to wipe off, but I'm not wiping that hard because I don't want to rip the material.
  15. yeah, i'm craving to hear an O2. of course i'd like to hear the rarer sennheiser cans as well, but I will never own them ever ever in history of the world.

  17. in other nine inch nails news, trent has ditched his record company: From the above link: "Hello everyone. I've waited a LONG time to be able to make the following announcement: as of right now Nine Inch Nails is a totally free agent, free of any recording contract with any label. I have been under recording contracts for 18 years and have watched the business radically mutate from one thing to something inherently very different and it gives me great pleasure to be able to finally have a direct relationship with the audience as I see fit and appropriate. Look for some announcements in the near future regarding 2008. Exciting times, indeed."

  19. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fo_QVq2lGMs]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fo_QVq2lGMs[/ame] Video for D.A.N.C.E. by almighty Daft Punk conquerors, Justice. this song is so cool I feel privileged just to be on the same planet it was created.
  20. wire season three, next deadwood season three.
  21. welcome to head-case spritzer! Glad to have you.
  22. Rules: 1. The video must be music related, meaning it can be a live performance, a music video, an interview with an artist, etc. 2. You must describe the contents of the video, you can't just post a youtube link with no accompanying description. Just something as simple as "<artist> plays <song> live" will suffice, but feel free to describe more if you would like. So those are the rules. Linky: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfjqZC5iTU8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfjqZC5iTU8[/ame] RZA from Wu-Tang describes covering/sampling "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" in a brief five minute interview. Interesting story about how George Harrison's son is a huge Wu fan and russell crowe gave RZA an old guitar. I just think the RZA is always interesting to listen to. This also makes Wu-Tang the first hip-hop group to (legally) sample a Beatles song.
  23. yeah, no need to stick ones toe in the pool of vinyl, since turntables are a pain in the ass to ship. might as well just buy a high end table and be happy. and yes I realize I have a $400 direct drive turntable whose design has remained unchanged since the late 70s.
