Yes, August 1, 2 and 3 each only come once per year. (Like we need something official to celebrate. )

Agree. I still do too, though I'd highly recommend one buy used until Mikhail demonstrates that he can give and meet realistic finish dates. The Extreme is good and I'd recommend either a PPX3 Slam or MPX3 Slam. You'll need the Slam versions to power the 701s. Note: I heavily edited the quotes of Icarium's original post.

I'll miss you too, whoever you are. See you tomorrow Vicki.

Happy Birthday Todd! I'm looking forward to meeting you this weekend.

Anders, I think that you may have the wrong headphone forum. The "burn-in" forum is over there ->. Really, most tubes settle in 5 hours or so. Then they slowly get worse over time.

Or the seller.

Ah, it's the old "slow motion, delayed jedi mind trick"! Slow, but effective.

Definitely you both would both would have fun. Even if he isn't into headphone-fi, he'll be able to find many things to do in the LA area while you are at the meet. My wife and I live in Santa Barbara, a very nice beach town about 1.5 hours up the coast (north) from LA. You'd be welcome to stay at our house before and/or after the meet. We'll be staying in LA during the meet. You just can't be allergic to cats or birds. I'm sure that other people would be happy to host you during your travels too. So that should keep the cost of your vacation down.

It's nice that everybody is telling you what they do. However, what they do may or may not work for you. I suggest that you buy several sessions with a physical trainer, who will assess your current condition and what you are trying to accomplish, and then come up with a program customized for you.

I once worked with a guy (in the high tech business), who used to be in the music business. At one point, he was the bass player of Boston but left the band a year before it hit the big time. He said that JB only wrote two songs, "Doctor My Eyes" and all the rest! I have to admit to liking JB's music, but not enough to pay $100 for one of his cd's.

Yes, he's a computer nerd's computer nerd. I don't remember if the door was open or not. However, he measured temperatures and heat was never a problem. Before he went this route, he mounted his motherboard on his wall. That made it easy to access boards, etc. so he could change/hack them. He's the brightest engineer I've ever met.

"10 Best Bombers" on the Military Channel.

No, the refrigerator was dead and not running. It was just an insulated box, i.e. just a small room in which to put the computer.

Or you can do what a friend of mine did. He found an old abandoned beverage refrigerator and kept his computer in it. It didn't overheat and you couldn't hear the fans. I guess that the reefer solution qualifies as not being in the same room.

Happy Birthday!

It looks like you're headed up the creek without a paddle.

So you're basically asking how much burn in time salsa needs, right? Well, it depends. Is this MilSpec salsa? Also, how big are the tomato chunks?

Looks good. I didn't know that In 'N Out had ribs.

Me three!

Happy Birthday!

Your BGs just weren't burned in enough. They probably weren't milspec either.

I agree that traffic is miserable there now. It seems to run heavy from 6 am to 8 pm on weekdays and from 9 am to 6 pm on weekends. When I'm sitting in it, I always wonder how people can do it day in and day out. I couldn't and retain my sanity. Where in SoCal are you now? Hopefully a nicer place with little traffic and good air.

Ugh, way too often for me. You have my sympathy.

Except for the connections to the IEC socket. Yes, the Millet is very nicely made.

Did you get the matching stockings too?
