  1. In the UK its famous for being Cement. Blue Circle Cement UK : Lafarge Cement
  2. Looks like much fun was had by all, and you even managed to fit in some headphone listening! The concentration displayed in the Rock Band shots is impressive, especially given the state of the participants. How can you tease us by only showing the "after" shot of the brownies platter, without the corresponding "before" shot? How am I supposed to know exactly how jealous to feel, for not being there, now?
  3. Now that is a steal!, almost half (full) price.
  4. They are being strangely quiet aren't they? No wi-fi in the holding cell, perhaps?
  5. Shhhhhh!, don't ruin the magic!
  6. Earphones thought to be the most expensive in the world have gone on sale for

  10. YGPM In addition, the UK shows had plenty of regional, and period detail. Interesting as you like the NY vibe, as the original US adaptation was set in LA, but was reshot. For various reasons.

  15. I like mine, the small, all in one, form factor works well. The ability to get internet radio, via squeezenetwork, means you don't have to have any PC's running sqeezecenter (slimserver, as was) powered up, as long as you have wireless, or wired access out to the internet. Has a line in (actualy it is an ADC), which mates well with the sansa clip, or laptop headphone out, if you just want to use it as powered speakers. It's a big step up from the integrated speakers in my laptop, and made it fun to watch the http://www.head-case.org/forums/miscellaneous/4766-story-mullard-blackburn-factory.html video . As you'll remember. The headphone/sub output (from its own dedicated dac) can be used to drive headphones, or an active sub - in sub mode, another software low pass x-over comes in to play for the sub. People have suggested getting a craiglist sub to fill out the real low end. Doesn't go as loud, or as low, as my floorstanders - but for low/medium volume, I think it is pretty good - for its intended purpose. Voltron, and others, heard it at the recent Marin Meet. Al described it as "not as sweet" as his Harbeths. Understandable given the physics and price differential. Best advice if undecided, is get one direct from slimdevices/logitech -as they have a 30 day money back guarantee. Amazon and mwave are showing lower direct prices, if you have already decided.

    Trust Billy (and his Coffee) for the insightful political analysis. Are you going to Take One For The Team? If so I look forward to your in-depth, scholarly review of this no-doubt artistic masterpiece.

  20. Get the video?
  21. I mourn the death of evidence based reasoning in hi-fi. When Hi-Fi meant Hi-Fidelity, Highly Faithful - the closest approach to the original sound. When new technology or design approaches improved the measured performance of equipment. Instead, today, Hi-Fi seems to mean High Finance, as marketeers engage in expectation bias as the ultimate placebo, and owners engage in a micturating contest as how much they can spend, in the pursuit of "perceived" improvement. When commoditization of hardware and economies of scale in component production is seen as a bad thing. It is almost as if the democratization of audio quality is seen as a bad thing. After all, how can you feel special, if it is within the reach of everyman.
  22. Happy Birthday Guys!
  23. Held a very enjoyable meet.
