That looks awesome.

What are you EATING right now?
Just had a "Burrito Bol" and chips over at Chipotle -- what's a full notch above 'meh'? Chevy's, El Guapo's, Don Pedro's are all better, but they're not bad.

How can the Grado extension cable cause a buzzing?
Bummer about the lashes, dude.

How can the Grado extension cable cause a buzzing?
Please do, especially if you're right. I was thinking that, but I just assumed he was being facetious.

Anyone know anything about "Websense"?
I think he was being facetious. Proving to me, anyway, that he actually did lurk before joining, and gaining a sense of us.

Oh. Well, that explains a lot.

He does -- it doesn't buzz when he unplugs them (impedance == infinity).

Oh, hubris, too. You'll fit right in.

Headphone cable? Doesn't make sense -- the only way it should do that is by acting as an antenna for buzz-frequency RF, but that should be before amplification. A short, perhaps?

Hi, George, welcome. A physicist, huh? If you have any science jokes, I'd appreciate them. I collect them. So far, I have one: Atom: Officer, officer, I've been in an accident! Cop: What happened? Atom: I collided with another atom, and it took off with one of my electrons! Cop: Are you sure? Atom: Positive!

-10 irony-recognition points -- emoticons, colloquialisms, acronyms, spelling words with one letter -- all of it. Okay, now you're just being a fucking troll. We frown on that shit here. I happen to know for a fact that people of your age can google. Hey, at least it was a complete sentence. I could only hope...

I don't know -- this internet-speak shit is for the birds. I already spend a great deal of effort trying to convince Billy to speak in complete sentences, I'm wishing for an ignore feature right about now.

Balancing a vinyl rig
Okay, so possible impedance mismatch -- only when off or volume set to zero -- between the pre and the active speakers. (think think think...think think think) Will wander off to read the stuff about the active volume control, I'm thinking it's that ("active" == "doesn't work when powered off" -- so, yeah, that's my reasoning). One possibility would be to never turn off your pre. Does it have a mute? Does it buzz when you mute?

Fake headphone stands
Dude, my formative years were decades ago. I think red meant passionate or murderous. Can't remember which.

Fake headphone stands
A study was done on the color of one's bedroom during one's formative years. Green and orange (the colors of my room) == crazy, most likely to go insane.

Maybe they already did, and he's wasting too much time as it is filtering through the spam.- Balancing a vinyl rig
I'm confused -- you're shutting off your preamp, which is part of...your speaker rig? And hearing buzz...in your headphone rig? Do me a favor, please, start over -- source, pre, amp, speakers, headphone amp, headphones, where do the two chains split, what are you shutting off. (I also want to look up input and output impedances, where the information is available.) - Post the last thing you bought!
