  1. found an unopened bottle of wine in my refrigerator. http://www.spanishtablewines.com/products/2005-Malaga-Victoria--%252d-Jorge-Ordonez.html trying to figure out if there is a reason why it was in the refrigerator since it hasn't been opened. can i take it out?
  2. people have different levels of hearing. based on averages by age, at 500Hz mike's hearing would be about 6dB worse than yours -- which could easily be the difference between audible vs. not audible. At 8KHz, it could be a 30dB difference.

    what does Class 4 / Class 10 mean?
  4. 3 CDs from Greg Augsburger:
  5. i sell, averaged, between 1 and 2 Picos per day. it's also possible to sell 5 in a day (dealer orders excluded). it's also possible to go 2 weeks without selling any. i'm sure some manufacturers sell more, and many others sell less. the market is not very big. the serial #s on my amps are sequential so it's not hard to figure out Pico (amp, and DAC/Amp) - 1452 Pico USB DAC - 215 Pico Slim - 655
  6. That's true. I believe Stax lowered their USA prices several years ago...it used to be really outrageous, like 2x the price in Japan. Then it dropped to around 1.5x, or even 1.25x if you knew a dealer and could get a bargain. Since that time, the dollar has dropped 20% against the yen and Stax has not raised their dollar prices (to end users -- i have no idea what goes on behind the scenes with dealer pricing)
  7. i don't get Stax's business model. Why do they need to sell products to Yamas who sells products to dealers? Why can't Stax just sell directly to the dealers? I'll tell you why. Because Yamas are good with people. They deal with the god damn customer!
  8. this guy's head is about to explode!

  11. there's actually some Pico unboxing videos from Asia on there
  12. yeah, im just not sure i could fill any time! "Here's the Pico, this is the ON switch, here's where you plug in the headphones....that's all for now!"
  13. does it play the brown noise?
  14. rain would make it less likely to occur.
  15. of the customs that I have JH16 > JH13(lost) > ES5 > ES3X i don't have any UEs because after they were bought by Logitech they wouldn't do amp trades with me like JH and Westone in build quality JH16 (copied ES5 bodies) > ES5 > ES3X/JH13 (tie) in comfort JH16/ES5 (tie) > ES3X > JH13
  16. I have had the JH16s for a few weeks now to replace the mis-shipped JH13s. They are great, and I would recommend them over the 13's based on my limited human memory. I think this is partially due to the better fit on this pair. Rather than get new impressions made, I sent in my pair of Westone ES5 to use as impressions. Because the Westones are made with a soft tip material, they increase the diameter of the tip to get a better seal. I was worried this would cause discomfort with the hard material of the JH IEMs, but it's no problem at all. They are extremely comfortable and feel exactly the same as the Westones.
  17. the laws may look tough but they're only going to prosecute people acting as unauthorized alcohol distributors ( = they havent paid a big tax to do it) you're fine.
  18. USPS Employee: Is there anything liquid, fragile, or potentially hazardous in this box? Larry: Yes...I mean no! Damn it!
  19. i settled for Altec Lansing
  20. i think i found my favorite youtube comment so far "Beats suck! Get a quality headphone, like Bose!" honestly though, if I were 16 right now, i'm pretty sure I would have a pair of Beats. They seem to be today sort of like the Klipsch 2.1 computer speaker system of 2000 -- to a 16 year old, the best speakers in the world. I had a pair of Sony MDR-V6 until I dug my way through Head-Fi to find out about Grados and Sennheisers.

    it's good, but when you cant relist it on ebay and get your money back after the absurd fees+paypal fees....not THAT hot. the 5N seems to add some much needed features (except for the video clicking Shelly mentioned) but its still $699. in 6 months it will probably be 400.
  22. Tyll, i've been reading the comments on your youtube videos and I just have a few questions * How does XX headphone compare to Soul by Ludacris SL150 * Please rank all of the headphones from 1 to 100. Thanks.

    high or low? i bought the NEX-5 for $399 from beachcamera on an ebay deal.
  24. Tyll, has anyone come to your site yet and been very confused by the talk of the celebrity headphones? Like they're not in on the joke, and thought that they were indeed the best headphones you could buy? Or have you not reached that mass market audience yet.
  25. you could but then there would be no money left for TV advertising and to give Best Buy a 40% profit margin
