  1. I got up early here in Mayberry and had some coffee and checked email and this joint. Took my son to fencing class, and watched him parry, riposte and touche his opponents, winning every bout of the day apparently. Then we took my beloved Gallo Ref. 3s -- my first real audiophile speakers other than the good old Klisch Heresies that I did not actually buy -- to deliver them to their new owner, a nice guy also named Al. Seemed right. Had some kind of stomach bug for a few hours that seems to be transmitted through Head-Case somehow and then settled in for an evening a drinking and music while my wife is at the ballet, my son is sleeping over at his cousins', and my daughter is being friendly for a change in between doing homework. That brings us current. Bummer. I wanted to see it but had my doubts. Is The Pines still there? Burgers, beer, peanut shells or some shit on the floor. My wife got her PhD at Cornell and I enjoyed me some Pines burgers. Nice work, especially for recycling! Sweet pics! Did you win anything? Awesome. I saw them years ago. I cannot even place the location let along the year.
  2. Duck! There's a shovel headed right for the back of your head!
  3. My Stax do not hum in the winter, but they whistle Dixie when it's hot. They shouldn't hum, but check for hairs sticking into the membrane and make sure whatever amp or transformer isn't the problem by trying them out on somebody else's setup if you can.
  4. ^^How many heads do you have?
  5. Nice Mikey! Let me know when you are selling it because my Desktop has Home modules and I might buy yours and sell mine. I am putting in my P-1 order today if I can get Todd on the phone.
  6. Email just sent. Hope it gets to you and that you get out of there ok.
  7. Have a great one Jeff! BTW, I know the perfect gift to give yourself: a balanced Beta22! Let me know when you have come around to the inevitability of it. Cheers!
  8. Earth -- Bees Made Honey in the Lion's Skull
  9. Say whut?
  10. Enrico Rava -- New York Days

  12. Hello Dan, and welcome to Head-Case! I know you are busy and not active on the other headphone site, but we would love to get your input around here. It is a smaller group with a higher average understanding level, and knowledgeable members are free to speak their minds. You may notice a higher BS sensor as well, so you might need to be prepared to engage in a different way than you might do elsewhere. Cheers, and I do hope to see you and Priscilla in Los Angeles for the big meet.
  13. Jeff "Tain" Watts -- Watts This album just came out by one of the very best quartets in contemporary jazz. Amazing players with a great synergy.
  14. Bobby Hutcherson -- Oblique

  16. We've heard that one before.
  17. My link was all he deserved.
  18. Here you go.
  19. blessingx has had my M-Audio Bx5a speakers for awhile and then bought Audioengine 5s with a deal code from Macworld. He thought that they had a more balanced sound with better low end over the M-Audio. He thought the M-Audio *might* image better but the a5s were good at that too. The additional features with iPod integration, USB, AC plug and so forth also add value to the a5.
  20. DA10 doesn't have IR, so this is an improvement in my book.
  21. Third time is the charm!
  22. Easily influenced today. Gonna listen to some Dosh and then some Spiritualized. Seem like good work music.
  23. That's cool. I hope that Lavry makes it to CJ09.
