Torpedo

I wish I were able to shave using my nails like Hancock, but in just one minute. I find shaving a waste of time. Every morning the same ritual taking me time from sleeping

Unfortunately not. Some tried to look like Olivia Newton John in Grease. Others just dressed jeans and shirts

Not exactly in schoolgirl outfit, but quite sexy anyways

Done everything and now working perfectly . Thanks a lot mate, I don't have a wide screen, still using my 3:4 21" CRT Philips monitor, so when they post big pics, those ads became very annoying to see the whole post.

Thanks Deepak. I found the code, but I don't have the slightest idea on what to do with it I added it after the URL replacing the * and as expected, it didn't work at all. I suppose I should get into HF and pasting the code somewhere into Tools or properties, but my ignorance about html and browsers doesn't help much.

Just to make sure, I've gone there now and definitely the Qables view won't work for me either on Firefox nor on IE7. It automatically leaves me on the default view with the damn left column ads Maybe it's just working for the Supremus or any other requirement should be met that I miss. I remember that by May or June the contributors could get rid of the left column ads. Then, by July or maybe August, the lower window with several sponsors appeared, and choosing among two of them, you could get rid of the ads. That lasted only a month or so, and you didn't need to be contributor to enjoy the feature. For some weeks there wasn't any chance to get alternate "clean" views until the Qables thing which appeared about 10 or 15 days ago. I've been trying hard to make it work, but it won't for me. Suggestions??? hehehehe

About a couple of months ago they had more "sponsored views" and you didn't need to be a contributor to have the ads removed. Now the Quables thing doesn't remove the left column ads for me. I'm not a contributor...

Glad to see it wasn't my handicapped English avoiding me to understand the fun in it.

LOL Those HP-2 are kind of a love-hate thing. They don't impress, in fact don't seem to do anything specially right, nor to make music wonderfully interesting, but have that sort of balance that once you have experienced it, you may miss it sometimes. I don't think I'll be selling my pair unless I needed the money badly, despite their not getting much play lately. I've purchased today a pair of Timberland shoes Very comfy, I have to choose my shoes very carefully for having my left Achilles tendon operated. The skin over it is very delicate and thin. These seem to fit the bill.

Happy B-Day Have a helluva fun

Good luck Vicki, I hope they deliver them today. If you didn't receive the receipt to pick them up at the Post Office, they'll most likely try it again.

Happy Birthday mate!

I bet aobadragon is the same fellow who was banned at Head-fi for using multiple nicks and used to buy cheap from members to sell for a profit. He's been trying to sell several Grados at Audiogon and other places.

Wouldn't those caps be redundant if the amplifier after the iMod/dock isn't DC coupled? Forgive my ignorance please.

Happy Birthday folks!!!

You're bad guys Happy Birthday Nenso, have a great one! Use well your last year before being legally adult

^ I suppose this sets a new price record for any PS-1. John must be having a helluva fun watching the outcome. I don't believe he's giving the funds for charity anymore.

Happy B-Day mate

Vibration isolation is a tricky thing. It all depends in what you want to accomplish. It's not the same trying to absorb and drain the vibration generated at a device to have it vibrating less, than to isolate a device from the environment, condemning it to keep its own vibrations into it. For turntables I prefer a mixed thing. To drain the vibrations produced by the motor and the own platter spinning, I like high mass TTs with external separated motor, placed on a surface which can take both devices vibrations but it's isolated from the environment by some rubber, sorbotane or the like. On a 1210 the first goal is difficult to achieve for being direct drive, however spiking the table on a high mass surface, could help to drain the table's vibration somewhat, then isolating that platform from the environment using absorbing feet, rubber or whatever alike, could help. Hence your idea could work quite well.

Happy birthday Vicki. Indeed

LOL Not very sure. I know many graduated and doctorate people who are true morons, and also very wise and clever undergraduate people. As I see it for the little knowledge I have of yourself, you have great human features that I'd like finding in a co-worker or subordinate. Much more in a boss. But probably that didn't appear on the interview and wasn't their main interest. Hence I still think they're morons hehehehe

Bunch of morons, they don't deserve you. I'm sorry you didn't get the job, but I'm sure you'll get more offers. Better luck next time mate

Not only for the quality of the write up, but also for not trying to convince us that every single room had wonderful sound. Music used for audio evaluation is very important. If you don't manage to get a girl singing with just an upright bass and guitar sounding right,then forget about getting some "serious" music being listenable. I agree with Asr's assertion that the music "audio people" use to show their systems become tiring and mostly worthless for any serious evaluation. However sometimes it can be useful for some sound-wise purposes.

Happy Bday Pabbi

Too true. At Quad they even did worse when the chinese holding got the company and started to produce the 2805. A friend of mine purchased a pair, needed a replacement two days later for one speaker going mute. The replacement sounded wrong, but luckily he had the first pair at home yet. He took both pairs apart and managed to build a right sounding pair. The inner construction is pure crap. Parts, soldering... the problem with the second pair was a wrong value cap And that into a 6K euros pair of speakers. Looks like nobody is interested in doing things right these days, it's all for the profit.
