I just found a huge fucking Nerd in my box of Nerds. I'm going to sell it on eBay -- I'll be rich!

Ipod Touch / Iphone
I thought Landscape was already a choice (as long as the app is in landscape before you invoke the keyboard)? That said, landscape is hardly a choice -- I thought he meant Bluetooth.

Is that a promise? I don't remember anything about that. Source?

Yay! I dub the game, "Guess My Wood".

Maybe they have caps lock on?- Tube amp suggestions for AKG K1000
I have deliberately (just to get a reaction out of a certain salesperson whom I have come to appreciate, albeit not necessarily his sense of humor) demoed equipment with Controlled Bleeding.- What did you do today?
Garnered a brownie point at work (yay!).- slow forum
I dub thee, "Reverse Salmon Guy".- What are you listening to Part Two
Cool, thanks for the heads-up! Me: can't stop listening to the Ghost in the Shell soundtracks. The Ballade of the Puppets suite and the suite from the first one (Making of a Cyborg/Ghost City/Reincarnation) are getting lots of plays.- Recommended reading for room setup, treatments, building?
Actually, that's Private Perspective.- Post the last thing you bought!
He can't respond now, because that will screw up his post count.- iTunes prices
Those that are willing to actually pay for mp3's are willing to pay more for them?- Most sibilant recordings?
I'm going to have to preview these with different headphones -- I'm not hearing shit with this Leatherhead.- Ear problems
Actually, the Stingray is supposed to be a good amp for them (haven't tried this combination, will), and I've used Musical Fidelity.- Most sibilant recordings?
I'm explicitly not talking about clipping distortion, though sibilance is often emphasized by such (so if it has clipping distortion and/or is badly mastered AND has bad sibilance, then please feel free to post it here). I'm talking about sibilance (mostly in the 2-10 kHz region, it seems). I'm trying to think of a really good example, but if I could, then I wouldn't need this thread. I usually hear it most in earlier pop (pre-1970) recordings. And yes, what I am looking for is mostly human speech sibilance -- like a mic without a windscreen type sound.- CanJam 2009
Oh, c'mon, just one? What are you making, liverwurst? But that's because you keep letting them go bad -- maybe if you actually froze some of them and refrigerated the rest, they'd last longer.- Most sibilant recordings?
We all complain about sibilant gear, but microphones and associated gear can put the sibilance right on the source, so tell me about some of your ...erm... favorites? I'll tell you why I'm asking later. Doesn't matter if the music is good or bad, I'm more interested in the acoustic properties of the recordings.- CanJam 2009
I don't think the problem is the procedure, I think the problem is with donor availability. Maybe you can make a deal with the proprietor of "Le Basement"?- Ear problems
Mmm...Shahinian. I have a pair of Obelisks. Love them. One of these days, I'm going to upgrade to the Diapason Ensemble.- Deals
Seagate 1TB, US$80 @ Amazon gold box (today only)- Manley Skipjack--Your thoughts?
Not only do I have the shiny gold one (note: not gold looking, that is actual 18 carat gold plate -- ultra-bling), I have the one that Stereophile reviewed. Right now, it's not powering anything. The last pair of speakers that it drove were a pair of Pioneer HPM-200's. I intend to try it out with my recently acquired K1000's.- Smyth Virtual Surround System
As was stated before, I'm pretty sure this does not exist. - slow forum
