  1. Top of the list is the Balancing Act with the HD800s, The Woo amps are on the list, Smyth room as the table demo blew my head off at the last LA meet, Tyll's new dac...TBC Those that are attending from out of town should be able to get a good preview listen Friday night during vendor set up. We still have a few rabbits to pull out of our hats.
  2. The headcase t-s have a blacker background but David/Ed's shirt has better detail and dynamics.
  3. Mike, keeping my fingers crossed for you and your daughter!
  4. How is the quality if this unit, notice any sound degradation? I thought of picking one up this weekend as my optical is on the fritz on the transdac
  5. hope you had a great B-day!
  6. I'm using a mr coffee filter at the moment

  9. once you go BA you never go back:p I love the ZD but the BA is just sooo much better. I know its a grand more but that is why god blessed you with 2 kidneys one for you and one for ebay
  10. The reserve grade will be out in a few weeks probably under $10 an oz. Well the top grade at $25 works out to $1 to $1.75 per 6 oz serving, based on 2-3 steepings per serving with an oz yeilding 8 servings. I'll probably bring some teas and home roasted coffee to CanJam.

    Oddly enough I'd argue that we have more consequence than most countries given the percentage of our citizens that are currently incarcerated. We run roughly 7-1 over most western countries with a whopping 700+ (stats vary depending on source) per 100,000 incarceration rate still leading the Russians though (fucking slackers) they only throw 600 per 100,000 in the slammer. I would argue that the safety of an area has little to do with the relative incarceration rate of the local populous. The incarceration rate for shitty areas of L.A are far in excess of safe neighborhoods. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/23/us/23prison.html
  14. Dusty call and ask for Peter or Alice and they can walk you through the dragonwells that are in. There are basically three harvest demarcations we are in the earliest and most costly ($15-25 and ounce) the nest are probably (8-15 per oz) I pass on the next grade after that. The Panan Supreme is crazy good, extremely thick mouth feel for a green tea almost oily. I can't drink teas from almost any other seller after buying from these folks as they are meticulous about the quality they bring in. I also highly recommend the Formosa Oolongs from 2008, they still have a few available.
  15. Panan dragonwell two different grades, this may be the best I've seen in 5 years!! Shameless plug for redblossom tea on SF

    I estimate the average BAC of crew will be around .08 at 6:45 or so so you can catch up with a shot and a beer
  17. Was in Vancouver this weekend after the win in game 2 the streets were flowing with great vibes from happy hockey fans
  18. My understanding is the notch filter is to reduce the 2k frequency, this info came from the guy that rewired my pair
  19. while i am not ready to release what Audio-gd is bringing/donating to CanJam suffice to say I was blown away with Kingwa's generosity and I think you all will be as well

  23. I've heard this amp and it is good but not great. Add a star for decent power and versitility but the sonics are average IMO
