Damn! Thanks for the heads-up on this, I need to hurry up and get around to getting myself a pair of these...

When I watched Dollhouse last night on hulu, they used a 10? 15? second clip of that to advertise the Honda Civic with the tagline, "fun and functional". Of course, I immediately went looking for the video and didn't find it. So...thanks!

Mmm...marble.

How Blair Witch Project would have gone if a cat were involved:

Original(-ish) image Actually, I really like the pair of them.

For you (I liked him, too):

I mean, "You know what you doing!" I crack me up.

I believe her bokeh are spokeh for.

The piano -- just stuff a harp in a box, then add remote controlled hammers: Harpo Marx destroys a piano

First of all -- cool idea, hadn't heard that one before, I might have to try it. Secondly -- is that really enough? Probably for most gear, but for gear that isn't, one might consider embedding a coin between two pieces of cut up mouse pad. Or maybe a coin on the side which receives the pointy part of the brass foot, and mousepadding on the floor or shelf side.

From the FAQ: EDIT: Damnit, Al beat me!

Dang, that is cute...and starting at only $299!

Ain't that the truth! And: from memory, I got a subconscious association of low fidelity with "fuzz" that I don't necessarily with "musicality" -- are they perfectly synonymous? PS I appreciate the answers -- I believe this is the first frank, honest, and open discussion I've ever read about the true meaning of fuzz. I think I even posted about it over there, but I'm not finding it right now...actually, come to think about it, it might've been over here...

Unfortunately, I only got the monitor, not the girl...besides, she too skinny.

Really? I never got that...

Really? It had the opposite (of enjoyable) effect on me -- it struck me as jittery and annoying. Still...interesting. Just not cats and weird Japanese shit interesting.

Yes, it really is. If you're going to eschew tubes, then this is the best you can do.

I will not be attending, but I would like to condone the use of my moniker for this purpose.

What? Thanks, I've been pronouncing it "oh-bee-aye" all this time.

Does anyone remember the "fuzz" fad that was on head-fi a while ago? Don't know if it's still going on, might be, for all I know. Is that the same thing (as the "sizzle" mentioned in the article)?

Apogee Duet? I should be able to try it shortly. But yes, I agree with Nate -- easily the best headphone I've ever heard with the built-in amps in most gear. And welcome to head-case, don your thick skin at the door.

There's a thread on audiogon, where a guy changed the guest quarters into a kick-ass audiophile building. He went all out, might give you some ideas. Pictures, too. And yeah, good thing you already have the RealTraps/Ethan Winer's articles. I'd also recommend his forum for questions. Although he out-and-out admitted to me that he knows very little of soundproofing...it is to his credit that he was open and honest about it.
