  1. And that's exactly what I will do. Thank you Would a top coat of clear coat be necessary or would multiple coats of the ting oil be sufficient? Also any suggested brands of tung oil? The shop where I will assemble stuff has a circular sander. Would that be better than the steel wool?
  2. Marc, I received it as a flatpack from Dave Dlugos in Canada as I have no means of making the precise rounded cuts necessary for the side baffles or the angled front baffle. I will be able to look at everything on Wednesday and let you know. I was hoping to go in with a plan so I am not wasting a day but I guess being patient will yield better results. I'll take pictures then.
  3. Well played
  4. It's what the speaker cabinets are made of. So they will be indoors always.
  5. dr wood or anyone else have suggestions on how to finish us murphy plywood? I haven't seen it in person yet - will see it on wednesday but I don't want to just paint it. I was thinking of either clear coat or a stain. would some type of oil be better? thoughts are welcome.
  6. I thought about turning it down for a second. Then I realized that I was standing in a 10 million dollar house owned by two cardio thoracic surgeons who were just happy their son did well. I graciously accepted. Now I can buy some of Patrick's speaker cables with coconut shavings.
  7. Was helping a kid with SAT prep for the past few months. I got invited over to find out what his score was. He ended up with a perfect score (800) on math - his last attempts were 340, 470. The parents were so happy they gave me a $1000 check to help pay the tuition for med school. Then we also went to 5 guys. Now I'm back to studying for finals next week. Twas a good day again
  8. I have a lot of outflow of cash this month with med school deposit, speakers, amp coming in. Not sure if I can swing more money right now. Maybe christmas time there might be a sale on the routers from apple...Has that happened in the past or should I just try to find used ones? Refurbished ones are available from apple directly for ~$130-140.
  9. I have a couple of finals on Tuesday. Will tackle this issue then. But if you guys have thoughts or suggestions I could try after I'm done please post them.
  10. wtf is this itunes 11 shit...don't know why I updated.
  11. Happy birthday gene
  12. It's a Cisco something. I'm still not home and haven't been home all day so don't know. Sorry Dinny.
  13. But I am not exclusively listening to music on a hard drive. I am watching lectures, videos, YouTube etc also. Music/video is on the MBA hard drive. I change the sound output in preferences to Apple TV and router takes a dump. I reset the router 3-4 times. It starts working. I can use vlc, QuickTime, iTunes with bit perfect etc just fine. Randomly later the sound cuts out and the video continues but no sound output. I try to change it to Apple TV again and router crashes.
  14. Everyone in the house loses Internet. The router needs to be reset to get things back in order. Latest Apple TV. Firmware was updated yesterday.
  15. Recently, I acquired an Apple TV to serve music wirelessly to the ps audio dl 3 dac. When it works, I have no issues. Even the delay/lag problem I was having just stopped occurring after I restarted the macbook air. Perhaps there was a buffer issue. I didn't need to buy and 3rd party software. It works on any kind of audio/video file. However, every time I try to select the Apple TV in sound settings on my MBA, it kills the wireless router. The only way to fix it is to power cycle the router. I am using WPA2 encryption and the problem persists without any encryption schemes as well. Any thoughts on what could be causing this and how to fix it? It kills the internet about 5 times at which point it either starts working randomly or I give up and use the jh16s. The whole point of me buying this was to be able to use it with headphones and speakers without having my laptop bound to the dac via a usb cable. Halp!
  16. Jesus that's a big laptop. Do you have a particular reason to be lugging something that big around Nate? Can't be light either.
  17. That can be fixed quite easily Antonio. Pm me if you would like me to grab one for you.
  18. A philosopher is never alone for he always has his own company.
  19. 5 is the oldest. Then came n. then r. I am guessing the prices are based on that. Is a viewfinder important to you or can you live with live view? I am not using mine (nex 5) and haven't in a few months because of school. I can ship it over if you want to play with it prior to purchase. But I only have a zeiss 50/2 manual lens so you will need to find an af lens if that is what you plan to use later.
  20. I'd throw in a vote for an nex 5 which can be picked up for peanuts these days and a sigma 30mm. Supposedly much sharper than more expensive lenses and reviews mentioning that were written by cicala so I trust them.
  21. damn thats a nice picture. hai noah.

  23. I can ask the physician I shadow. He deals with a lot of workman's comp cases.
  24. they teach that in med school, greg. I think.
  25. i have no clue. i've only been accepted. I don't know anything right now
