mulveling Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 Two new arrivals from USPS today - nice headphones and tubes (batch of TungSol 6DT4) The "Into the Wild" LP also arrived this week:
gauche Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 HAHA I only did that a few times. Normally I shift around 3-4k. Normally, I shift around 3k rpm. =T Why the short shifts? Your redlines are around 14,000 rpm, why shift at 3,000? I (normally) shift my twins at 4,000, the IL4 at 7,000, I don't even shift the thumper at 3,000.
postjack Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 Nice HP-2 Mike!!! the cary is my dream source! tell me more! nice modwright 777es as well. i hate that dan doesn't mod them anymore.
purk Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 the cary is my dream source! tell me more! nice modwright 777es as well. i hate that dan doesn't mod them anymore. I'm reserving my impression right now, but both are excellent and in the same class. The Sony SCD-777ES has about 2k in mod from R. Kern and another 3.5k from Modwright. I bought this unit from Tom Hankins and sent it in for a tube rectfied PSU upgrade.

"Only Yesterday" isn't that a Carpenters song on your Sony? Any way have fun and enjoy your weekend listening to it Brought a HD600 this week and a HD580. Will be fun to have them both again
gauche Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 Really doesn't count as "bought," by I put the deposit down on my new place, today. Can't wait to move, though I hate the actual moving process. Buy low, sell high, and now is definitely the time to buy, especially in CA.
Augsburger Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 Bear pepper spray, extra extra strength and new running shoes. I am going on my son's school overnighter field trip to Lake Arrrowhead next week and lately I have been stumbling on all these news items of people being mauled by bears and mountain lions. I have a new tube amp and I am about to buy a new cdp. It is difficult to listen to good music if your ears have been torn off by a black bear or your head is in a cast.

gauche Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 it's an apartment, so it doesn't count as buying regardless Misread deposit for down payment. Do you have rent control out there? or rather is there even a need for rent control out there? Next Tuesday I get to vote on whether to abolish rent control and/or eminent domain in California.

Knuckledragger Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 4N6's balanced DT-880s. Now I uh, just need an amp to drive them.

grawk Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 grawk drink scotch?! CRAZINESS Yup, I had some ardbeg at canjam, liked it well enough. Decided to try the quarter cask. Not bad. I don't like it more than bourbon or rye, but it's a different thing.
Fungi Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 That and Peach Cobbler are the only flavors of B&J that have me coming back for more.
GPH Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 That and Peach Cobbler are the only flavors of B&J that have me coming back for more. Never tried Peach Cobbler, I don't think they have it at my grocery store. Sounds delicious. Half-baked never stays too long in my fridge, it's just too good to sit there not being eaten. I particularly like that flavor because they pack a lot of big chunks of brownies and cookies in it. I don't buy that stuff too often though, with all that fat and cholesterol in there, it requires at least 30 minutes of jogging on the next day.
