The Monkey Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 dinny, just buy it, and if you don't like it, return it Done. Because you said so. The damn receipt doesn't reflect the CJ discount, so I had to email support.
VPI Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 I listened to the UDAC quite a bit at CanJam as it was on my list of potential DACs for the Squeezebox. I thought it was quite good on our begged, borrowed and stolen rig at CanJam. I call dibs on Dinny's. Dinny if you want to borrow the M^3 to use with your new HD800s let me know. I got a few minutes with this pairing and Thrice's Buffalo DAC at CanJam and thought it was great.
The Monkey Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 Jeff, thanks, I think I've got the amp situation figured out for the moment. Glad to hear you liked the UDAC. You're next if it comes out of the rig.
grawk Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 You keep trying to get other people to take the M3 jeff...did I forget to get the poltergeist to move out or something?
VPI Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 I was under the impression that he was using a portable amp with the HD-800s and I also was hoping to get a more in depth, than the few minutes I spent with Tyll's, review of the HD-800s with the M^3 before putting in my order.
grawk Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 We should have gotten Tyll to put a balanced hd800 on our table
tyrion Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 Done. Because you said so. The damn receipt doesn't reflect the CJ discount, so I had to email support. I had the same problem. Jorge responded that they would take care of it on Monday.
Voltron Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 3 small backyard (~2') trebuchets. You bought 3 catapults? I have not heard of the backyard version. Have a pic?
Salt Peanuts Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 You bought 3 catapults? I have not heard of the backyard version. Have a pic? It's this one - TK3 Model Trebuchet. It's closer to being a desktop model than a backyard model, but it's supposed to be able toss a projectile over 40 feet - got them for part of groomsmen gifts. They also offer much bigger backyard models - [url=http://www.trebuchet.com/10101]Floating Arm Trebuchet
aardvark baguette Posted June 7, 2009 Report Posted June 7, 2009 Prismacolor graphite pencils, drawing pad, artgum eraser.
grawk Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 2 1.5tb barracudas (to replace the drobo) 1 macbook topcase (my replacement has already started to crack, so I can forsee having to replace it soon, and newegg had a new model replacement for $30)
Knuckledragger Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 4 LED lightbulbs Oooh. What wattage? How many lumens? What color temp? How much did they cost? Last month I bought a handful of half-watt LED nightlights, and I have been sorely disappointed with them. Out of the box they were blindingly bright, but in less than two weeks they had faded to 1/2 to 1/4 of their initial output power. That's pretty sad even by the standards of cheap Chinese knock-offs. I have looked at LED bulbs for conventional fixtures, but I haven't seen any in a price range where I'm willing to gamble on them yet.
Dusty Chalk Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 At $8 apiece, I was willing to gamble on them. link And yes, they are cheap Chinese knock-offs. I don't care, they already own the country, I figure I could float them a few bucks.
laxx Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 At $8 apiece, I was willing to gamble on them. link And yes, they are cheap Chinese knock-offs. I don't care, they already own the country, I figure I could float them a few bucks. Let us know how it turns out. I'm interested in trying it out too.
n_maher Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 About $100 worth of machining for a certain primate's amp project. Soon: about $50 worth of machining and material for a little HD-300 resurrection project.
VPI Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 like you're even going to listen to them. I will listen to them until some other shiny new toy grabs my attention and then I will forgot all about them.
boomana Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 About $100 worth of machining for a certain primate's amp project. Someone really needs to teach you the meaning of "retirement," though as I'm listening to the 225s right now, it sure won't be me I will listen to them until some other shiny new toy grabs my attention and then I will forgot all about them. Sounds about right.
