  1. Are these your first front-loaders, Mike? We just got a front-loader in the house where I live -- they take some getting used to.
  2. Awesome.
  3. I could see him doing it on a custom basis, but not prebuilt.
  4. That's what I was thinking (without knowing it had a name, or a preferred implementer).
  5. You have a deathwish from being molested as a child. DC: No snow, but it's fucking cold. Barely achieving 30 today.
  6. Ground it to ground.
  7. Sounds like you're trying to influence to me. Yes, you were pretty careful. BUT NOT CAREFUL ENOUGH! And yes, I see now that you were trying to answer the original question -- I didn't read it that way the first time.
  8. Can you or did you post a pic of the Nuforce unhidden? I guess I could google that for myself...
  9. Thank you -- at least you aren't making the classic mistake of technical virtuosity <> musical ability. But then you go and say this -- implying that just because it's the majority opinion, it should somehow influence mine.
  10. See?
  11. Awesome, I thank ye. (You know the soundtrack in my head goes something like, "du-dudu-du mm-mm doh-doh mm dideh You can't touch this du-dudu-du mm-mm doh-doh mm dideh You can't touch this Dude, I'm serious, stop trying to touch this, you can't. No, I mean it. I'll mess up your hair... Everybody over here say, 'oh!' Everybody over here say, 'oh!' Okay, just the grass now, 'oh!'..."
  12. I thought you people were against stem cell research. KIDDING!
  13. Snobs, the lot of them.
  14. Oh snap.
  15. My bizarre sense of humor and view of the world?
  16. Grey == "light black", hence, I approve as well.
  17. If, by "whole thing", you mean the entire "Dr. Horrible", then yes, but no commentary, behind-the-scenes, etc.
  18. They sound like duct tape between the pads and the earspeakers?* *My apologies if this is a proprietary design.
  19. Alright, but is it an aardvark, or a sloth, or what?
  20. And that's better...how?
  21. I need this in its original resolution -- should I search on aardvark or whut?
  22. Stop, Hammertime...I mean, (puts on "intoning" voice) "Thou Shalt Not Pass"...
  23. Order placed.
  24. So, there's a DVD: [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Horribles-Sing-Along-Blog-Amazon-com-Exclusive/dp/B001M5UDGS]Amazon.com: Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog (Amazon.com Exclusive): Neil Patrick Harris, Nathan Fillion, Felicia Day, Simon Helberg, Joss Whedon, David Burns, Michael Boretz, Maurissa Tancharoen, Jed Whedon, Zack Whedon: Movies & TV[/ame] ...and it includes a musical commentary, amongst other things.
  25. Three issues -- impedance mismatch, sensitivity mismatch, and different listening levels. So potentially you'll have an impedance mismatch, so try to pick phones of similar impedance. There could still be variations at certain frequencies that peak or dip at the same time, making things worse for the amp, and exaggerate a frequency issue that wasn't there with just one. Unlikely, but potentially a problem. Sensitivity issue -- same results, slightly different cause (albeit related). Listening levels -- previously discussed and self explanatory, I would hope. We actually had this problem when we were doing some listening tests with an EAR headphone amp. The Sennheisers were much less sensitive than the Grados, so the person listening to the Sennheisers was at a disadvantage at being able to hear differences, much less anything. I have a reputation for listening at an entire notch lower than anyone else, but the difference was too much even for me. So don't think that you can necessarily cancel out the third problem with a judicious choice of headphones.
