Oh snap.

My bizarre sense of humor and view of the world?

Grey == "light black", hence, I approve as well.

If, by "whole thing", you mean the entire "Dr. Horrible", then yes, but no commentary, behind-the-scenes, etc.

They sound like duct tape between the pads and the earspeakers?* *My apologies if this is a proprietary design.

Alright, but is it an aardvark, or a sloth, or what?

And that's better...how?

I need this in its original resolution -- should I search on aardvark or whut?

Stop, Hammertime...I mean, (puts on "intoning" voice) "Thou Shalt Not Pass"...

Order placed.

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.

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.

Okay, so you just multiplied everything by a constant -- that's not the same as digital compression normalization.

Wait what? No! Don't dew et.

Jesus.

Actually, I do. Just don't test me -- my passive is much better than my active.

Deepak -- you need to track down "...And the Reindeer You Rode In On" -- it'd be more up your alley

Stupid pheasant. Or quail. Or whatever it is.

I disagree, they're plug'n'play if you buy a system (earspeaker/amp combo).

"Grim optimism" T-shirts from woot. I was hoping that one would win the derby. Huzzah.

It sounds great with certain phones, but I agree with the "too much" comment -- only recommended if you have the equivalent of a sweet tooth for the overly tubey sound.

Wait...that was a viral ad for Wanted?!?!? I never put that together.

I'm not sure I understand -- what do you mean by, "you normalized the audio"? Is that the volume matching that you described, or do you mean normalization in the digital compression sense?

No, you're fine. Postwhore was a reference to someone else entirely ("best big head there ever was").

Ah. And: love the invention and use of "Postjackian".
