I hate to say that I can't remember what the Crossfade LP sounded like. I was more focused on the Crossfade M-100 which I bought, and the M-80 which I picked up dirt cheap at RMAF for my son. I like their headphones though as a fun sound to play with (more fun and portable than SRH-840). And the V-MODA Vibrato IEM are their best effort at IEM so far, although kinda like a Monster Turbine Pro but better. I preferred the X10 over the Triple.fi 10 pro, with a warm punchy sound and smooth mids and highs, although with a slight bleed of the mid-bass into the lower mids. Probably the closest IEM in terms of sound signature to the V-MODA M-100 full size phones, although I think the X10 might appeal more to an audiophile. My first pair of X10 cost me $249 but sold them a few years back, although I thought they were worth the high price. For the same price I was finding my Westone 2 to have a crisper more spacious high end, but with less fun and warmth in the bass. The X10 have been $149 at Amazon for a few months now, which is a good price. At $84.99 they are a no-brainer - I need a pair like a hole in the head but pulled the trigger anyway.

I've made the same decision, same logic. Will report back.

Wrong thread. Try

Great job CJ! It's nice to have choices. BTW, I'm curious, how do you feel about getting an M.D. vs a D.O degree? The number of D.O. graduates is increasing these days, but they still only make up about 7% of graduates. My family doctor is a D.O. one of the docs that was in my pediatric residency program at Baylor College of Medicine was a D.O., but otherwise I don't know many osteopaths. Interestingly, my wife got her Masters Degree at A.T. Still University for Occupational Therapy in 2010, and AT Still was the founder of osteopathic medicine.

That's great! Can you say where yet?

My iPad mini has been stuck in Tennessee since 2PM Sunday for "clearance delay". On the 15th the Apple website said I was supposed to get it tomorrow, now it shows Wednesday. Spoke to someone at Apple and they say the clearance delay "is routine" but normally doesn't show up when checking tracking, and I should have it on time. I told them "on time" was tomorrow. They refunded me my $6 for the 2-3 day shipping, and so now it's not their problem anymore and they wont call FedEX to find out why the tracking shows that FedEx is "waiting for instructions from importer".

Same here.

Happy Birthday!

WTF is wrong with these people making these?

I got the City Maps 2 Go yesterday, and downloaded a MAP of colorado springs, and several neighborhoods that were built prior to 2004 are not there. The map must be at least 8 years old.

OH CRAP!

Happy Birthday!

I would take Zingers over Twinkies any day.

It's not like I expected it to be anything official, since I hadn't even noticed the special ops part till you brought it up. At first I thought it was the watch below, which simply says water resistant in that spot. Budk is selling the one below for $79 now. http://budk.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=158642&

Agreed.

Caught a cold

For 6.5 more hours 1saleaday has S&W watch for 70% off what Budk catalog is selling them for $14.99 + $4.99 S&H http://1saleaday.com/watch/ I bought three for me, my son and my brother (still getting Bro a citizen eco-drive for birthday).

I thought about this for a while, and I recall that without airfoil video player my initial problem was playing quicktime video on my computer with the sound configured to be coming out of the apple TV so as to play through my stereo. Then the sound was late and out of sync with the MBP screen. Airfoil video player fixed it so that the video on my screen via quicktime player and the audio from my ATV > stereo was sync'd up. I tested this just now, and this is still the case. While trying to watch a Louis CK video via quicktime on the MBP just now, the video is on the MBP screen and it will have delayed audio through the ATV unless I use Airfoil Video Player. Then the video on MBP and audio on the stereo via ATV is in sync. If I send video from iTunes to Apple TV, then the video only shows on the ATV and there is no lag in the audio. If I use airplay mirroring to send youtube to the apple TV the video and sound are sync'd together okay on the TV, but both are behind the video on the rMBP screen. Not a problem if I'm only looking at the TV and not the MBP screen. Interestingly the longer the youtube video plays with airplay mirroring the less the lag becomes.

You can almost hear the whispering!

I just checked and I have a few albums by Pete - Air, Ozoona and Dreamfish 2. That's sad to lose someone so young (my age), and he was a good artist too.
