The new Grado lineup
I think that the new designs actually have improvements, not cost cutting. The square rods, for example, broke far more often than the round ones do. The cables I think are upgraded, and other such things. The whole silver 325i thing awhile back was new stock trickling in without notice because dealers get stuck with the "old" models when new ones are announced. It is a very decent policy followed by Grado. Anyway, I am curious as hell to hear the PS1000 especially with flats -- and will check out Zanths's page shortly -- but it is not going to knock the PS-1 off the top of the heap and shouldn't do anything to the value of those truly limited edition cans.

How can you have too many records or too many bottles of scotch. Plus, they go so well together!

Nice grab, guzzi. We have two Miele vacuums and they have both been excellent.

Congrats Mike! It is going to be fun to go back to SF and pick up the Luxman tomorrow. You won't be far behind. The Menace is going up on the blocks! Dang, that is almost a sin. Good luck with letting it go.

What did you do today?
Got a link to DFH website, didn't know about the division between the DE and MD operations, and the website doesn't exactly make that clear. Talking to Dan offline to see what he wants to do.

Oops. That came from a lot more than San Francisco but they must be damn efficient over there at DFH. Gotta alert the troops.

Ouch. Sounds like a nightmare all around. That must be a very difficult part of being a doctor.

What did you do today?
Rode snow mobiles and went tubing with my son while my wife and daughter went skiing. Dropped by the Utah State Liquor Store and scored a small bottle of Glenlivet, some wine, and some Rogue Ale Yellow Snow IPA. Chilling with the FET-A now.

New Lavry DA11 DAC
This thread got crapped on by you posting your ridiculous offer to Dan Lavry. It was good of him to post here and then you had to ask him for a DA11 in trade for some used headphones. Plus, do you really think he knows what an APS cable is or cares if you have extra chrome housings? If you want a DA11, sell your cans and buy one. Don't put a vendor in a bad position by publicly asking him for something. Also, nobody cares if you posted positive comments about the DA10 after listening to somebody's unit however long ago. The criticisms and comments about your offer would be just as valid regardless of what you said before, and you can either roll with it or act like a jerk. You chose the latter, mixed in with much whining. If you don't like the results of posting here, then don't bother. I cannot understand why you continue to try so hard.

That's funny, this is exactly what I am listening to right now (without having seen this thread today, of course). Just finished: The Decemberists -- Always the Bridesmaid (Needledrop)
