Pretty good, better than the DT880 & the MDR-7506/-V6, not as good as the DT770 or any IEM. Probably close to the CD3000, but not quite that much (I don't have it with me, so can't compare).

Most of my heroes are assholes, but not all of them (Edward Ka-Spel is one of the nicest people I've ever met).

Hey, I'm serious about that button -- post pics of the jacket, preferably with close-ups of the remaining button(s).

Closed or open? Closed: Audio-Technica ATH-A950LTD are the ones I find myself coming back to on a daily basis. Open: Meh, I don't know, you're on your own.

There's a guy on another board who lists it as one of his favorite horror movies of all time. I can't argue with it, but for me, I still need some more time before it makes the list, y'know? But yeah, it's the best one I've seen in recent years. That build-up in the first half could have been a great movie all by itself, but then they just crank up the intensity like ten-fold.

I'm with Biggie -- it's still dumb.

The Descent was amazing -- best atmosphere in a horror movie since Alien.

Yeah, but didn't you see that episode of House, M.D. where the girl broke her toe and it was leaking marrow into her bloodstream and making her sick? I mean, I realize it's TV, but still, isn't that sometimes bad?

I just noticed this. (There was a small review in one of the British magazines.) Being a big MF fan, I may have to get this.

Thank you! I thought she looked familiar. She's the infamous dancing girl behind that animated gif.

Oh, and I was playing around, so I did this one (NSFW!), and I accidentally did it landscape first, which, in some ways, works better.

(in reference to the girl subplot)

Yes, you can. And I ain't no doctor, but no, that don't sound right. I'd get a second opinion.

You know, I could have used this definition several years ago.

Just as long as he doesn't do any Seth Bullock impressions.

(starts costing flights to Hawaii)

Send me the jacket, I'll sew another button on it. (I've actually been doing a lot of button-sewing lately, and depending on the button, can probably find one to match.) Oh, and:

It depends what. I wouldn't worry about the Wheatfield until it actually burst into flame (or singed my cat's hair).

Dude, it's a phono stage, probably the most sensitive component you have. At least get some good current production tubes -- either these or these. Ask over at sh.tv.

You need to roll that Sovtek, methinks.

It's better to burn out than to fag away.

I'm definitely a fan of the VPI. Go that route.

Damn, how did you know? Don't answer that. But: you're right. Oh, and LOL @ grawk's edit.
