  1. Why don't you just get the SR-007?
  2. He should have gotten it to work with the iPhone and released it in October of '09.
  3. Moar lah-klee a spee-kuhr. (They actually did used to use light bulbs in crossovers.)
  4. I'll wait until it comes out in black.
  5. DC area mini-meet. At your place.
  6. You also need to try the "swap channels" trick. Tubes, cables, etc. Wherever you can. If you have the kind of headphone where you can detach the cables, do that, too. One at a time, of course, so if it does switch channels, you know exactly which step caused it to do so (if it is the amp, then the only one which should cause it to switch channels is the headphone cable).
  7. Apparently, I need to upgrade to photobucket pro today! Bandwidth exceeded...
  8. Dagnabit, it comes with Panther (10.3); Duet requires at least Tiger (10.4.10). So that's an additional $100 right there.
  9. No, absolutely not. I find even harsh recordings to be more listenable on the best systems. It could quite possibly be that classic tube distortion -- second order harmonics, is it? -- or it could just be because it doesn't make it worse, but yeah. I listen to comressed distorted digititis-laden crap all the time.
  10. Well, there's that, too. Me: Kung Po Chicken from Mandarin House in Laurel -- they must have an apprentice at the wok, the chicken isn't as magical as it usually is.
  11. Okay, mom.
  12. It's also not necessarily unhealthy if you need protein. I ate red meat all the time when I was bringing my triglycerides down.
  13. Yeah, I probably could have guessed that they were working on a new flagship line without having any inside information. Bad time for it, though (Christmas shopping season). I hope it's soon.
  14. Oh crap.
  15. Pizza from Fresh Fields
  16. "bycurious"? I think you meant "buy-curious". Oh, and my solution? Zip-Loc baggy. Extra strength (I.E. the freezer variety). Keeps the lint out and everything. Yeah, it doesn't make the girls go, "ooh", but you know what? Not exactly something you need to worry about, unless you're Patrick Bateman -perfectionist.
  17. I went and checked out some of the Panasonic Plasmas at MicroCenter briefly today -- and they're not that bad. I'd consider them. Plus, I believe they make a 1080p model which is less than 50"...which is the smallest the Samsung makes. That's a lot of TV -- possibly too much for me. I'm tempted to go 46" or maybe even 42".
  18. Very nice work. /me approves.
  19. Sauce-some.
  20. I was actually laughing at my own lack of knowledge on the subject -- I do understand that most people know many more beers than I do. I thought the contrast was funny.
  21. It's not black enough.
  22. Conrad Johnson have a relationship with McCormack -- perhaps you should look at one of those? They come in a variety of price points, not just the ultra expensive ones are any good.
  23. We must be lucky, we have stores and bars here that sell more varieties than you could try in a lifetime (e.g. Brickskeller). (a) can't, ( not whining, just making an observation. I just thought it was funny that he said, "I've tried others, but keep going back to...", and then listed more beers than I've tried in my lifetime. It would be sort of like me saying, "oh, I've tried other bands, but keep going back to..." and then listing every band you've ever heard.
  24. What would you be upgrading from? EDIT: Never mind, missed the NAD comment.
