  3. LOL Welcome Ironbut, you look like you'll enjoy the stay
  4. Be careful, some those ebay cases are just a copycat of the ones at hifiheadphones. Are softer, smaller (so the wires have to flex too much to fit) and not as nice. Difficult saying for the pics. I have one from hifiheadphones and I'm quite happy with it. I use it to keep the PS-1. GS-1 and PS-1000 won't fit. I hope the HF-2 fit as well, if so, I'll order another.
  5. I wish that Afrikane's ES-1 goes to Spritzer or Dmitri, both guys truly deserve it
  6. Take care mate, I would skip that trip. Take your pills and have good rest. Get well soon.
  7. Yep, it's a brightness in the midrange, which I attribute to the kevlar midwoofers for being present in most B&W speakers, and also a metallic tint somewhere higher in the treble. You need to listen carefully to voices you know very well, and also some wind instruments to be fully aware of what's going on. Then there's the bass, which is a bit "boxy" though quite tout for bass reflex speakers. Overall good speakers and for the price, I suppose a good alternative to Wilson Sophias/Watt Puppies and many other high priced big boxes pretending sound big and forceful.
  8. LOL I guess you were under the influence of spirits. Though impressive (very much indeed if played loud) those speakers can become very fatiguing on the long run. I needed 3 listening sessions at an audio shop here to realize they weren't my cup of tea. However big speakers sound... well, "big", which is good at times.
  9. Mmm you seem to be an expert on that I think I wouldn't mess with the sack and strings I suppose you know how they castrate swines...
  10. Hahaha, and it's not me in HF
  11. Has anyone seen pics to know how "complex" was the "lacing"?

    slow forum

  13. That's starting to get me impatient to receive my HF-2. Still a few weeks away
  14. Really? Wow, that's going to be interesting, very interesting. Mostly for I haven't ever listened to any vintage RS-1. I don't dig the newer versions.
  15. Thanks mate. I tried to arrange things to attend, but May is a bad month here at work. There are a lot of medical courses and congresses which my colleagues want to attend too, so unless there's a "good reason" to get a few free days... Maybe next year, I'd love to meet you all and being able to try some pieces of gear. Let me know whenever you come this side of the pond
  16. For world music I'd recommend the Bebo Vald
  17. Got it. The plugin can be found here You need Foobar2000 0.9.6.2 or higher installed. Once installed you need to go to preferences>Tools>Audioscrobbler to type your Lastfm username and password to get Foobar sending the statistics. I'm now using it, but I don't know if it's sending anything up there. The good part is that you can disable it very easily by just removing a tick. EDIT: I've checked it and it's working flawlessly, now Lastfm knows I'm listening to Melody Gardot
  18. Oh thanks, I'll look for it myself and post results if I find anything
  19. I just joined, but since I'm using Foobar in the computer, I don't think this works.
  20. I'd swear that TT is running a tad bit slow
  21. Haydn: The Creation - Karajan, BPO...
  22. Have a great day
  23. Congratulations and sorry hahahaha. Good luck spotting what's wrong on those two not properly working boards.
  24. Big hugs Doug, I'm very sorry for your loss. You won't ever overcome it, but you'll learn to live with it. Take care.
