  1. I agree -- it should be the choice of the consumer whether or not they want to put with that. Personally, I am of the camp that they are worth it, but I also understand for example, Marc's frustration, since he's having other issues in addition to the wait time. I also agree that Mikhail can do a better job of estimating delivery times and following up, and should try to improve in that area -- and that doesn't mean build them faster (although that'd be nice, too), it means estimating less optimistically. I know from the marketer's perspective, that one might worry about losing business if the estimates are too long, but look at what's happened due to disappointment -- lost business. There are phone calls he'll probably never get because of some of the discussion here.
  2. Pretty much. Maybe it's intended to "kindle" the desire to read that way?
  3. I meant the ES7's, but I think I just realized those are the mirror-finished ones. And: they should be shipping this week.
  4. Technically, the member table took a week to rebuild, even if this is the first table after that. Not looking good. And yes, it could mean that, if what they're doing is trying to do is recover the data from raw database partitions. Yeezh. That's about all I can say. Yeezh.
  5. I think he means they're trying to avoid homework and such.
  6. Check out audiokarma.org -- they're all about reconing/raccooning. Definitely recone.
  7. Actually, it's just the opposite -- they're trying to keep up the headphone faith hobby alive while head-fi is in limbo/in a coma/tits-up/down the pooper/whathaveyou.
  8. They were probably left out for someone who had paid for them. You probably inadvertantly stole them.
  9. Oh, c'mon, Jacob took a picture of his feet, ferpete'ssake...
  10. Custom? So words like "asshat" and "assfacehole" have their own special indices?
  11. Is it still available? I thought you could only get it on the used market.
  12. Yeah, I'd give it a listen. Their CostCo system @ US$129 (? I think ?) -- even without the tubes -- is a steal. Best entry level shelf system I've heard, plus you get ribbon tweeters.
  13. Tosser. I've got two words for you*: V-neck. * ...well, one and a half. Sort of.
  14. Yeah, if I recall correctly, you posted a different angle of your avatar (who happens to be a porn star). Definitely temp-ban-worthy.
  15. Einsturzende Neubauten, "Sabrina" (or perhaps "Alles", since I can't find "Sabrina" on skreemr.com).
  16. My $16 Casio (I overspent) is so thin and light, I have to check my wrist to see if I remembered to put it on.
  17. I hate when that happens.
  18. [me=Dusty Chalk]gives +10 brownie points to hYdrociTy[/me]
  19. Cool, then we can unban you.
  20. No, but you should be punished for posting pictures of yet another black headphone that no-one told me about, goddamnit! So...how are they?
  21. Awesome. Welcome to team moderator, Vicki!
