iceman94 Posted August 7, 2007 Report Posted August 7, 2007 So, bored at work, I stumbled across head-case from another link. I've been a part of that other site, but kinda trailed off for a while...thought it was because I'm not really doing headphones anymore. More like everyone worth paying attention to ran over here. I'll probably just lurk anyway, but thought I might as well pop in and say hi. And damn, I was so oblivious to what was going on over there. Me = teh dumb.
hYdrociTy Posted August 7, 2007 Report Posted August 7, 2007 evanston! woooo northwestern! I envy you! the view from the rocky shoreline at late night, with the expansive lake in front of you and the lights of chicago but a few miles away to your right... *cries* to think just 6 years or so ago I almost jumped in that night and never surfaced...

Yeah, its pretty sweet. Ironically, I applied here kinda casually, not having a clue exactly how awesome NU and Chicago are (east coast bias FTL). Getting rejected from Stanford is one of the best turns of luck I've had . What sucks is I'm halfway through already... Glad to hear you didn't make that jump. I had this painfully hilarious over-the-top PM from Ray a month or two ago, wondering why I hadn't stopped by his place to visit. Would've made a great head-case present I think, but too bad I deleted it Thanks for all the greetings

granodemostasa Posted August 7, 2007 Report Posted August 7, 2007 hey. I want to read your review of all the gear you've never heard.
iceman94 Posted August 7, 2007 Author Report Posted August 7, 2007 I used to do a SACDMods 9100ES -> MPX3 SE -> HD650, not sure if that'll be recognizeable or not. I'm in the middle of going to SB3 -> Northstar M192 -> Moscode 401HR -> North Acoustics Kitty Kat for speakers, with the Inguz Slimserver plugin plus Acourate or something else for room correction. Right now I have a pair of Merlin TSMs and a Tact integrated, which was a mistake. Horribly sterile- which I kinda knew, but wanted to confirm my sonic preferences. tTW, Dusty Chalk, the East Coast roxors , but I really didn't have any idea how awesome Chicago was, nor does anyone I know back home. It's unfortunate. Still, I find the Midwest inferiority complex amusing sometimes , and its soda, not pop.
deepak Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 Hey iceman I assume this is mateo5 from Hfi? I met you at the Boston meet Chicago is without a doubt one of my favorite cities in the US. And very interesting that you're using a Northstar, I basically would have never heard about it if it wasn't for Reks. Welcome to Head-case
909 Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 and yes, it's definitely soda. then what do you say about those that call it soda pop? I sometimes call it soda, pop, soda pop, but usually everything is just coke or by it's given name like Dr. Pepper or Iron Beer.
bhd812 Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 i just say COKE..give me a coke..coke... then they say "we dont have coke" and i say what ever you have is good.. or its just a sprite..but not anything else.. Sprite..give me a sprite.sprite.. "we dont have Sprite..We have sierra mist shit" what ever you have is good..even if its lemon lime piss..still sprite to me.

The Boston meet was fun , I definitely remember meeting you there. I should clarify, I don't have the Northstar yet, it's just what I'm planning on getting- I'm working on paying off a demo model of the poweramp first. I basically went with it because of you and Reks, along with a couple of other impressions dug up elsewhere. Is there anyone here who calls everything a "coke"?
postjack Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 Is there anyone here who calls everything a "coke"? yup, i'm from the south.
tkam Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 and yes, it's definitely soda. no its definitely pop. calling any soft drink a soda could possibly get you shot in pittsburgh
