R.I.P. Paul Newman
CNBC ticker was reporting in the area of $250 million gross to charity, but I've no idea how accurate that may be. Sad to see him go, I wish I would've been more familiar with his work as an actor.

Rank Your Headphones
Heh. 1) DX1000 2) HD580 I won't have my Denon for close to 2 months and plan on selling it thereafter, so no point in pretending like it is/will be my headphone anymore.

What did you do today?
Woke up at 10:30, sat around for a while and listened to some music, class from 3:00 to 6:00, witnessed a half-gallon milk jug immediately followed by an equally-impressive amount of vomiting, ended the day by watching Grind, which was actually relatively decent and pretty funny. Average day in college I would say.

Arthur Forty PSC EWS 1X headphones / anybody tried them?
Aesthetically, I really like them. You certainly won't see any other headphone looking similar to that style .

Musings from the Wood Side of Things
Thanks much bro, your compliments are appreciated . Yeah, it will be close. With my first Grado woody, I was forced to cut down the fork of the cup, as can be seen here: I bet they would . Thanks for the kind words all.

Musings from the Wood Side of Things
Thanks everybody . Getting a "nice" from the wood guru himself... *falls out of chair* It was sealed in Tung Oil, sat for 24 hours, then applied a 3-step polish and buff. I'm not quite sure what the first two steps are, since my grandfather provided the kit, but the third is the actual wax polish that coats the wood. You think there's too much gloss? It seems that the more gloss you use the more "wow" factor it has. I am, however, a bit old fashioned in my preference for wood and I'd rather use too little gloss than too much. Anything to help keep the original nature of the wood.

Musings from the Wood Side of Things
Bought a piece of Rosewood and churned out a couple of woodies. It is an amazing specimen as far as wood goes and I hope to use it again in the future; it had a brilliant graining that shines up pretty nicely if I do say so myself. The cups on the left are a commissioned SR225 woody, and the big 'un on the right is my D2000 that some of you might have seen over on the other site. Hope to try out Cocobolo for my next project, just not looking forward to the cost :/.

What did you do today?
Fell further into the pit with another student loan. Oh well, nothing better to help shrug it off like putting on the headphones and letting loose.

What If I Were Looking For a Complementary HP for The 750..?
3x on the K240, such an enjoyable phone for how little it can be had for at times. I'm not near as much of a fan on the K340, it has a crappy low end and sounded very reserved from the little time I spent with it. The ESW9 is probably the best headphone I have heard in the portable/compact category.
- Good luck to SoFla HCers

I bought 6 pairs of socks yesterday and a can of compressed air. There is absolutely nothing more refreshing to me than putting on a pair of socks that have never been worn before. If I ever get extremely wealthy, I am never going to wear the same pair of socks twice. Ever .
