  1. Avoided being made redundant once again (I think...)
  2. Happy Birthday!
  3. Happy Birthday!
  4. ^ x N all. Really sick and a horrible tragedy.
  5. I used to own a pair of K401s. I now own a pair of K601s (driven by a Dynalo). My brother owns K501s. Do the math. So part of my reply wasn't stupidity. But overall, head-fi exists to entertain these types of questions.
  6. K401s? No? K501s? K601s? K701/2s? Dr. Dre's?
  7. Happy belated Birthday!
  8. That was a good one! Hoping the Schleck bros kick some arse. Andy came close to grabbing yellow today.
  9. Yes, I've been watching it some (not much this week though). The TV car taking out the two riders was pretty intense, especially the one that flipped into the barbed wire fence (fucking OUCH)! http://forums.serotta.com/showthread.php?t=93228&highlight=barbed

    Yeah, I was trying to figure that thread out. I guess you are supposed to only listen to stuff that sounds good on whatever you are listening on/with? Seriously fucked up IMHO.

    As usual, you have a way with words...
  12. What? Is this the kinder, gentler head-case? That took about 5 clicks: Our products meet the strictest quality assurance standards. This is why we can offer you exceptionally long warranty coverage on our high-quality products. In the event that service under warranty is ever required, first contact the dealer who sold you the AKG product. USA Harman Consumer phone: 1.888.452.4254 email: [email protected] http://www.akg.com/p..._psmand,12.html You sure the lead wire on the driver isn't repairable? That said, why were you doing a recable? Oh yeah, I forgot... its fashionable.
  13. I have a pair of K271 Mk.I that I use at work (with velour pads, so should be quite close if not identical to the Mk. IIs). I have a pair of 840s at home. I dont do reviews, etc. and don't usually talk much about my impressions of things, but my experience would say that the 271s have less bass (though adequate IMO), and are more neutral than the 840s are. The 840s have a mid bass peak, and while "fun" phones to listen to, are more colored. Both of these driven with Gilmore Dynalos.
  14. ^ just to add to the sentiment and to thank you for sharing these with us. As Vicki and others have said, the love in the family is quite evident and touching.
  15. Al, my deepest condolences to you and your family. I'm sure that the love that surrounded her was a great joy to her.
  16. Best of luck with this Gary! Nice work!
  17. nm, answered below.
  18. Congrats Andy!
  19. Catherine Wheel -- Ferment I decided to get this based on Black Metallic... now it is one of my least fav tracks on this... DOH Think I'll have to buy Chrome next.
  20. Thanks Doug, but the parallel combo gets me closer. That said, i just ordered a 50pk of 1% MF for $2 shipped. I traded my '09 Accord in last week for the same thing only 2011... the sales guy (who I like and have dealt with for a couple of years now) saw my custom Mogami cable I had made for my ipod to the Aux jack in the other car, and asked where I had gotten it. When I told him i made it, he asked me if I could make him one for his iphone to an aux jack. After doing a bit of reading, i realized that he would be better served with a dock cable. Since I had a spare dock connector around, and some Canare, I decided to go that route. Hence the need for the resistor, but also didn't want to order something from Digikey or Mouser.
  21. no one? Need a 68K resistor for an iphone dock cable. really just a bump cuz it wasn't showing in new posts. View New Contact has been acting funny lately though... read posts (threads) aren't removed, etc.
  22. Yep. Ours got knocked out for an hour or so, but was back by 11 or so. Sucks that yours might be out for that long KG... hope they get it fixed sooner.
  23. Not really a forgot to order item... I need a 68K resistor for an iphone cable. Needs to be small (1/8W) to fit inside the dock connector. If not, I can probably parallel a 220K and 100K which should be close enough (I have those).
  24. Yep. L normally signifies an inductor of some type, and those do look like ferrite beads. C is normally used to denote a capacitor, and R a resistor.
  25. Took the day off and did a 28 mile ride on the Prairie Path (W Chicago burbs). On my way back, a lady walking two dogs came from off the path (wooded) with her dogs leading her by 10 feet. She of course couldn't see me (and apparently does not listen as she should have heard me). Glad I still can do a track stand as I stopped just short of the dogs, couldn't get my feet unclipped, but managed to stand and then take off when she pulled the dogs back while saying "Sorry...". The ever popular "Fuck this is going to hurt..." was going thru my mind at the time, just hoping I didn't break a collar bone or something. Good times
