Waaaaaaaaaay too fiddly in my book. The GS Hybrid looks like a nice car, but I'm not sure any of the current-production hybrids are really any better for the environment as a whole despite the fact that they may help reduce the amount of gas that you buy.

Audi's standard warranty on new vehicles appears to be pretty comprehensive and is 4yr/50k.

The kids are gone, right?

Heh, my love for them persists but my desire to own one is gone. I would never own another VW/Audi that was not covered by a low-deductible comprehensive warranty. It seems you either get a bulletproof one or a near lemon, no inbetween. And nice office rig Mike!

Happy Birthday!

Pretty sure, yes.

I have no issue with the noise of the PS3 and I'm pretty picky about that stuff and live in a quieter than average setting.

Vicki's has an RK50 IIRC.

Poly(methyl methacrylate) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Hard to imagine it getting anywhere near hot enough to melt.

Happy Birthday!

I'd imagine that was a necessary side effect, i.e. not everything could be ported over.

I fear Vicki has been swallowed whole by her BHSE.

Not sure how I'm wrong since the cable picture is at least close enough to what Al has as to descriptively work. Bottom line, do yourself a favor Al and find a way to close the center hole in the 6-pin socket and save yourself or someone else an expensive mistake.

Thank you for bumping a 7 month old thread. This is your first and only warning.

Vicki lost/misplaced/forgot where she put her digital camera months ago, I wouldn't hold your breath on pics from her. Congrats V, can't wait to hear what you think of it. And don't forget that when you turn it on it won't actually turn on for a few minutes.

Happy Birthday!

I believe what you have is this, right? And the reason for the 6-pin jack is that it was what they had. A horrible idea really since it would allow you to plug any normal bias can accidentally into a pro bias jack.

That's a bad Kevin! I found them to be less tolerant of high-output impedance designs compared to their HF-1 brethren and thought they sounded outstanding out of a beta22. I haven't tried them on many tube amps so I can only tell you bad things about that experience. I suspect that something with perhaps a trafo-coupled output would be nice.

One of these days I'll finish up the misfit BH and then can join in on all the EL34 madness. Stupid lack of time these days.

Isn't there some giant box showing up this week? I remember it having a few buttons and lights.

If I unfocus my eyes enough I can see the 4 discrete circles, otherwise my mind wants to see them intertwined. Pretty neat.

I've been hearing the Ipod rumors for weeks, makes sense historically and also would be timed well with the Zune HD release date.
