Chicago Meet - June 23rd
The Chicago meet I attended was a blast... I will be up north on vacation at the time of this one though. Have fun guys.

here is a suggestion
My Wife wants a pomeranian... I like bigger dogs, but think it is a shame to keep one in the city. So we will probably end up getting one of those little furballs once we get a new place. Our condo is over 1000 sq feet, but we've got 3 cats and 2 people in there already.

Well, we pretty much have 100% utilization of our allocated bandwidth all day after 9am... and it is lunch time, so everyone is likely surfing the interwebz.

Hmmm... didnt work for some reason. Tried it again and it is even slower. Might as well be on dialup.

The network at work is sooooo slooooow. I'll try to run this from home tonight if I remember... and can tear myself away from the Wii.

Classical Cans
It drives them well, though it wasn't a tonal match with my rig. Could work if you have a tubed output CD player though.

Ramblings on the importance of amps

Ramblings on the importance of amps
Bah, amps don't do nothin'. They sure to look purdy though. Get one with 13 tubes and be done with it, thats my moto.

Classical Cans
I'm not a huge classical fan, but the K340's do a pretty good job thanks to their ability to pick up micro detail. Or is that nano detail?

Equation
swt61 got a pair and prefers them to his K81DJ's. I trust Steve's ears, so I would say that it is not *all* hype.

What are you reading now?
Currently reading through The Avatar Trilogy. Not exactly high fantasy, but lots of fun.

RS-1 or MS-Pro
I'd say go with the RS-1 Renato... you already know you like it.

Did I wreck my hearing in just one week?
Well isn't Nasonex more for sinus problems than allergies? I was extremely stuffed up to the point where it was starting to screw with the hearing in my right ear... I was blowing air out my eye when I blowed my nose. Nasonex has helped me out a lot.

My New Headphone Stand
Hmmm... cheapskate ingenuity... and there is a Grado hanging on it... interesting.

$10K, what should I get?
True that... I'm going home to one tonight.

$10 what should i get?
You'll have to talk to R Kelly about the golden shower as he is the expert.

$10 what should i get?
You can probably get a lapdance at a sleezy club in the US for $10.

Did I wreck my hearing in just one week?
I thought I had really bad seasonal allergies, but the doctor prescribed me some nasonex for two months and a decongestant for two weeks. Not taking the decongestant any more and am just on the nasonex... and feeling worlds better than when I used to cycle through over the counter medicines for allergies. I wish I had discovered nasonex sooner. I still have some pills that I keep on hand in case the allergies flare up again, but I haven't needed them so far.

best closed headphones?
If you are talking about this thread... http://www.head-case.org/index.php/topic,808.0.html ...I was joking.

best closed headphones?
Either you are confused or I was. I don't like Audio Technicas in general, but I've never heard the L3000s. You may have read me saying that the R10 sucks... and if so, I should probably qualify that. It doesn't *suck*, but I was expecting more given the cost. Even on a SDS-XLR with tubes chosen specifically for the R10 I preferred my K340s. That said, this is all under meet conditions [the first national] so it should be taken with a grain of salt.

K340 for me, though I haven't heard the leatherheads yet.

Found my SNES, old school bedroom gaming
Well, they dropped planescape, but the 'planar' sourcebooks they did bring out for 3.0 are pretty solid. We still run a planescape game as it is not like you really need stats for the Lady of Pain or her dabus'.

I was just looking at their website and their Wadia mods look cool.

That does sound cool, I've always liked steampunk.
