  1. I will be checking them out, but not planning on buying anything.
  2. I oftentimes have dinner for breakfast, sometimes I have lunch for breakfast. Then I have lunch at dinnertime, and foods usually associated with breakfast for "midnight snack". And then for tea, I have well tea, actually. As in the drink. As in, it's not a meal. For me.
  3. I didn't get the impression from the article that "being sidetracked" had anything to do with it -- it sounds like he constantly has multiple projects going on. The issues were twofold -- he had heard that same study about magnets close to the head issue, and is looking into it (also shielding, and then the weight problem); and amplification (ribbons, of course, require special amplification) -- I'm assuming it's the same issue as with ribbon speakers -- I.E. the low impedance presented across the frequency spectrum, but have not received confirmation.
  4. I have a thermal undershirt on today, because the office gets cold after 7 or so (I think they turn the heat down). I'm comfy for now. Wow, that was poetic. Nice imagery.
  5. Anyone know how to check Dell's Deal of the Day?
  6. According to this page (buried in the last paragraph), he hasn't forgotten about them. But the news is not good. I still say Smeggy should test them out.
  7. What is this superfelt? Is this some sort of extra special acoustic felt, or is it just a certain type of felt that I can pick up at the local G Street Fabrics?
  8. The response I got from Alex echoed the response that Srajan got initially, so I wouldn't be surprised if his interest waned again.
  9. China scoops us C'mon, that thing is hot -- asymmetrical enclosure, with a yin/yang aspect to it (see the pic on the third page), Raal ribbon tweeters... Want. No, wait, I want the Raal omnis: linky. Damnit...
  10. see bottom of page I've actually known about these since October, but missed the fact that it was public information.
  11. Mystified, Pulse Ringer Pieces -- fell in love with this ambient music via Magnatune. (Actually, I haven't bought this yet, but it's imminent.)
  12. Condolences. I just brought my mom home from the hospital and got my allergy shot. I could come to hate these, I always feel like crap for days afterwards.
  13. If the third party was a licensed escrow service, no, but if he's just a random so-and-so, yes -- trust. What if something happens to the amp between when SP lets it go and the owner receives it -- who is responsible?
  14. What about the Crystal Clear speakers? You guys are worthless.
  15. I hate when that happens...when my arms fall off in the middle of doing push-ups...
  16. You guys... I do have access to a camera with a decent macro, but I don't know how soon I will be able to have access to it, so, again, I'll see what I can do. I've never taken a headphone apart before. I'm scared. Hold me.
  17. I follow a lot of music-related pop culture, and I even I don't care about the rock 'n' roll hall of fame.
  18. (le sigh) Not sure I have any cameras with a decent macro...(which I only just learned about this weekend is a requirement to take the kinds of pictures you-all're looking for)...
  19. Thanks for the pics/guide, guys, I'll definitely give it a try. OTOH, my T40RP's distinctly say, "Mk II" right on the box, so maybe not.
  20. Not a particularly good one, but there were two highlights:
  21. Well that's alright then.
  22. I hope you all get banned from eBay.
  23. Well, at least he's telling you that he hasn't shipped them yet...that's a step in the honest and communicative directions, if nothing else.
  24. I've got "smells like semen/sounds like semen/smells like semen" stuck in my head right now. Might have to whip out the iPod.
