Audeze LCD-X
It's not as much as the real weight as the perceived one over the head. Anyway, I'm still keeping these LCD-2 (rev.2) so I'm not that unhappy with them.

Audeze LCD-X
Well, not bad. I can't wear the LCD-2 for long sessions, but for a couple of albums I stand them pretty well. It's not the pads what seem uncomfortable to me but the headband and the overall weight, so if the newer more comfy ones help, that should be good. I haven't listened to the LCD-3 so no idea if those or these new LCD-X are the step forward I could appreciate.

Sure, all those in that guitar make it very comfortable to play.

What are you EATING right now?
Good foie gras is absolutely amazing. It's breakfast time here, and Spanish isn't nowhere near as copious as the US-UK one, but I could treat myself with a fair share of that. Oh, I already had breakfast

The chart is very nice. I think I saw something like that at Martin's website but I can't recall. The 000 is the most similar shape to a classical concerto guitar. What I liked most of that EC was how easy it was to hold the chords at any fret position, and also bending the notes, you can get a whole tone bending without really applying a lot of force.

What about isolation? Good to fly or train travel? As shitty as Denon's?

Jeff, did you feel nice playing the dreadnaught? I for one don't feel very comfy playing those huge things, but if you felt right and were able to hold the chords easily, the guitar looks pretty good.

Audeze LCD-X
So it looks like they're "more of the same". Why do you think they're more comfortable? Better pads or headband? Is it lighter? Better cup ventilation?

Sennheiser HD 800 Redux
Yes you are, the HD800 isn't a bad match to the Dynalo-Dynamid at all. Depending on your source, I'd eventually upgrade it before getting a different amp.

The music stand covers your instrument, so instead of playing it you seem to have your right hand on your crotch

IMHO mass produced guitars aren't what they used to be. These days they not even come properly adjusted and octaved. It's on small luthiers where the true value is, plus they have the personality that Dan is missing. Once they become famous and greedy, good quality is gone. Like on boutique audio amplifiers. Regarding the amp, Jeff wants a Mesa or something like that

I'd like to have that trouble of choosing a new hobby to blow cash on I haven't played the rocksmith, though a friend of mine is using GuitarBots to get his six year old son into playing guitar. It seems kind of fun, you may wish to try it.

What are you listening to Part the Third
Viktoria Mullova, Ottavio Dantone, Accademia Bizantina - Bach Concertos It's been recently released. Enjoying it a lot so far. The Stax Lambda Signature sound pretty good doing this stuff.

If you want an acoustic with beautiful tone, good sustain/resonance, and high playability, you may wish to try a Martin from the 000 series like any of these four. I played the EC, it felt great and sounded wonderful. My advice is that you go to a luthier shop and try a few ones. One needs to feel the guitar, see how soft or tough is playing it, and above all, how one likes its sound. The Ovations play just OK for me, but I really didn't like their tone unamplified.

RIP someone or another
RIP Yusef Lateef. Wonderful musician. I'll be playing later his Eastern Sounds, one of my favorite jazz albums. I wish there's some sort of wonderful place for people who have brought beauty and some happiness to others in this otherwise pretty fucked up world. Maybe that's just resting in peace.
- Happy Birthday, Ken
