  1. How many months has John been in CA? Just take that number and divide it by 3.
  2. Then again, you could smash them with a hammer and buy the adapters that Earl is using in his SP amps.
  3. When do you type in "xyzzy"?
  4. I'm surprised that you didn't make him an MDF or plywood stand after that comment. What did he want, an ebony stand?
  5. Actually, I think that Jacob is saying that they are different. Since you're getting a β22 soon you'll be able to compare for yourself. Of course, you will only be comparing it to one tube amplifier and what you hear may or may not translate to other tube amps.
  6. You could fix that with a magic marker.
  7. "We're concentrating on our core technologies"
  8. The RS1s had flats. My ears must be more sensitive to treble than yours. Ah, so that's why you must get a Grado.
  9. I suspect that the marketing guy answering the questions here will be one of the 5000 that Microsoft will let go. Either that or made a VP. I think that Microsoft could be very successful in this market space. However, they need to get some knowledgeable people and come up with a revolutionary idea instead of just copying ideas that were big 5 years ago.
  10. If the clamping force is greatly reduced, then the foam is much less of a problem too.
  11. I'm sure that you'll be able to get the A-10 in silver.
  12. Medjool dates.
  13. It's easy to make Grados comfortable. Just have the new guy wear them for a couple of months. Then the headband will be stretched out enough that the clamping force will be greatly reduced. It worked really well for my HP2. Of course, if you have a big head you're on your own.
  14. That's why I suggested that you listen to it and decide for yourself. Deciding that you won't like a headphone without hearing it is not very different from deciding that it's great without hearing it. Try to give it a listen. The results may surprise you. It's funny, I don't like the RS1 very much. I find it's treble to be "piercing". This was from listening to jp#'s vintage RS1 being driven by a top-notch source and amp. After listening to that, I figured I must hate the Grado sound. Then I tried an HP1 at a meet. What a difference! I really liked them. I've since tried HP2 and PS1 phones. Now I know that it's the John Grado sound I don't like. My main headphone now is an HP2. I'm sure glad I tried the HP1.
  15. Chick Corea and Bela Fleck - The Enchantment
  16. FIFY. Happy Birthday dude!
  17. It's probably a simple supply and demand thing. The supply was probably similar to the black model but the demand was much lower. You were quite smart to save and not worry about the color.
  18. They are all there in my FF instance. Maybe you should have an exorcism for your computer.
  19. He's much worse than dubious. Search HF for threads containing waddragon and it will soon become obvious. I wouldn't trust him further than I could toss him.
  20. Homemade Ph
  21. I love my HP2s, but I seriously suggest listening to a Senn HD800 before setting your heart on getting an HP2. I would if I were buying today.
  22. Try living in a place called "ice land" and see if you don't become more harsh.
  23. No problems using FF 3.0.5 and McAfee anti-virus software on Windows XP.
  24. Maybe the shipper is his brother?
  25. I can't help but wonder if bad Nate is one of the golden ears to whom they have sent review samples. I also can't help but wonder how long it will take Lawton Audio to offer a modified pair for $700. I can just hear it, "These made me sell my Sennheiser 800.
