The rational explanation is that not everyone knows how to handle themselves on the internet, and Billy is one of them. What more than that do you need? This happens all the time, it's not really new (and it certainly doesn't take a doctor to diagnose). And it's not really the same as Tourette's or bipolarity at all. I think the technical term for it is "immaturity".

Or what was that other one, who had a name like Professor something -- it was on a flash gordon type show.

Fuck you.

Jesus! Can you run them down, please? I know the leatherheads on the left, but the rest I'm not sure about -- looks like W2002's in the middle, but I'm pretty sure at least two of them are not. And what are those on the right? And why do you need two?

I don't think they take offense because they think it's a bad thing, I think they take offense to someone who isn't actually bipolar using it as an excuse to act stupid, even if that excuse is espoused by someone such as you, who, although maybe a doctor, isn't the kind that diagnoses such afflictions.

I am still fond of the Rykodisc series, as I was in that other thread. Worth hearing, at least. I wouldn't mind hearing (track names, as I have much Bowie) examples of the high-frequency stuff you're talking about.

They look like wooden mannequin parts. Specifically, boobies. Or, perhaps, hips.

Just leave it in the jar -- a jar candle -- you know, that'd work for me, I think I'll do that.

Elephas -- I remember that shoot-out, so yeah, you're exempt. Yeah, but they're not black. Not a complete deal-killer -- I like titanium as well -- so I will proabably still get a pair. But I mean, c'mon -- BLACK. Oh, and re: Reference 3A -- they're already on my radar. Their Corian-baffled speakers can be made with any Corian that Dupont will make, including like a dozen different flavors under the category of black. The Thiels look nice in black, but I'm so used to seeing them in wood. The Gallos come in black as well.

Pull a John Wayne.

The wax container -- the mold, essentially. What are you using for the mold?

Pfff.

Fascist! Did you see that? Now we see the violence inherent in the system...

I can't read this thread title without thinking that this must be some sort of scat fetishist search engine. Not that there's anything wrong with that. No, wait a minute, yes there is: ew, gross.

When did the 950LTD come out? Like 8 months ago? Why am I only hearing about it now? It's fucking black, goddamnit, you all are supposed to inform me of these things.

What about getting it out of the container?

Hey, are you going from instructions for this, or are you just winging it? I wouldn't mind doing something similar.

I swear, it sounds like you guys are hearing different headphones than I. I agree that it has better bass than most headphones, but "...less refined..."? "...muddled..."? Nope, didn't hear it that way at all. But then, I heard them from the beginning on some pretty high end gear, so...there ya go. Are you sure you're not just hearing FOTM backlash? You know, just because it's a FOTM, doesn't mean it's bad. Ben -- at least take the opportunity to hear a pair if you can. I'm not going to say buy a pair outright, because obviously they may not be for you, but don't discount them outright, neither.

I thought she hated the 2000?

Yeah, I imagine so. The environment does not sound conducive to omnis at all. I would pick a very directional speaker, and listen to them nearfield if possible, midfield if nothing else. Focal Utopia Be series? I suspect that room could handle the Alto, or perhaps the Diva, if you want to cut out a couple thou. Wait, you want to throw the architect at him? Oh! You want ideas to throw at the architect. Ethan Winer: ...on acoustics ...on building a better bass trap his forum [me=Dusty Chalk]is greener, though his text is red (and read, for that matter)[/me]

Yeah, I guess when you say it like that -- that it's much less important in HDTV, especially if it's post- line-doubling -- ...I guess. I still wouldn't want it, myself, though. It's a lot easier for you to say, not having to look at them every day. Do you still think you'd feel that way if you owned it yourself? I tell you whut -- I'd be counting pixels, if it were me.
