  1. Yes. Why? Because no one setup is perfect at everything, so whatever weaknesses the first rig has, your second rig should excel at. For example, if one rig is the most detailed rig you have, but is mediocre on prat, then your second rig should be the rig with the most prat. And, as others have said, there's no shame in trying to come up with the one most well-rounded rig one can, neither.
  2. It's called "verification". The more statistical evidence one has towards a theory, the better.
  3. You should have seen him give a mammogram Money that mandated laundering
  4. Heh-heh...you gotta love huge knobs...heh-heh...
  5. What was the point of that? You couldn't even see him...just smoke...
  6. Tosser. I'm ordering the dub.
  7. /makes mental note to order shirt I got my "I'll stop wearing black when there's something darker" shirt.
  8. I don't know -- I haven't been done wrong by him yet, but I am seriously concerned over that whole Wonder Woman thing. Also, I'm not sure the Joss Whedon aspect is real. The story is on a site not exactly known for their journalism, y'know?
  9. Aw, man...I want a hover jeep! Just think -- will give 'offroading' a whole new meaning!
  10. I don't think Sailor Moon had any tentacle sodomy...but I could be wrong...I've never seen it... It just seems...anachronistic-squared, y'know? The whole thing just reeks of absurdity...
  11. Joss Whedon (storytelling genius behind Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Serenity, and Fray), Lindsay Lohan (hollyweird -- sluts snorting coke gone wild, etc.), and anime (you know, cartoons): link. I don't know whether to rejoice or hurl.
  12. I stand by, "you're wrong". We'll just have to "agree to disagree", as it were.
  13. I'm thinking something like this (only, I'm not an artist, so this could be done better -- I just frankensteined two plagiarized pics together). Also, it'd be nice if the straightjacket vaguely resembled a pretzel -- that way, we work the whole pretzel thing in. And the straightjacket should be a lot less detailed -- the detail should match the amount of detail in the headphones. [attachment deleted by admin]
  14. Yeah, but do you have a Guts plushie?
  15. I don't think you judge a speaker's frequency response on its apparent ability to reproduce frequency, I think you should judge it on its actual ability to reproduce frequency -- sorta like not judging a book by its cover. I'm just saying -- I didn't hear anything missing when I had mine. I will tell you it was in a small room, but -- I've also heard floorstanders with less bass. And they went pretty loud (pleasantly so). Those woofers are relatively huge (especially for a non-floorstander) -- about the size of a dinner plate, yes. They're not "bookshelves" per se, as they wouldn't fit on the average bookshelf (also, the port's on the back).
  16. No, that's what I'm saying -- I have a nice sub that went down to 23 Hz or so, and I didn't feel I needed it -- I truly consider it a fullrange speaker, despite it not being a floorstander. I ran it without a sub. But then, I was listening in near field, so...take that into account...
  17. I had a Musical Fidelity A300^CR power amp driving those things, and they weren't suffering in the low bass department at all.
  18. Nice pictures. I especially like this one: I'm not a Prima Luna fan, but you could make me into one.
  19. Believe it or not, there are other hobbies more insane than this one. Microphones, for example -- there are people who collect microphones. This one, for example, is, offhand, the most expensive one I could find in a readily available catalog -- which means there are easily more expensive ones that aren't in the catalog: What else you got?
  20. I have the balanced Max in my list. It overshadows the E.A.R. HP4 by a margin. And I really don't see this thread degenerating much more than that last post. So if you blame anyone, blame yourself.
  21. A pair of cans over a straightjacket would be appropriate.
  22. Do you hate us?
  23. Your momma so fat When I wrote a haiku 'bout her I had to use extra syllables
  24. Nice backpedal there Sausage fact'ry floor sweepings You still crybaby
  25. Actually, I am a fan of lifelessness in audio equipment. That's the one I have. And I still like it. Have you heard any of their other Confidence series? Big difference is the tweeter -- the Confidence tweeters are the Esotar, whereas many of their other models have the Esotec tweeters.
