recstar24 Posted April 8, 2008 Report Posted April 8, 2008 "Native American" and "Aboriginal American" are PC terms invented by white guilt. Well, they did take away their land like a fat kid takes cake.
Chekhonte Posted April 8, 2008 Report Posted April 8, 2008 if you want to be cool, don't refer to all native americans as a single group. Ask what tribe they're a member of and refer to them by that tribe name.
JBLoudG20 Posted April 8, 2008 Report Posted April 8, 2008 I got this indian squaw the day that I met her Asked her what tribe she with, red dot or feather She said all you need to know is I'm not a ho And to get with me you better be Chief Lots-a-Dough
The Monkey Posted April 18, 2008 Author Report Posted April 18, 2008 Can anyone comment on the RS-1 with flats?
NotoriousBIG_PJ Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 Can anyone comment on the RS-1 with flats? Bowls give rs-1 a bad name. Biggie.
postjack Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 Bowls give rs-1 a bad name. Biggie. flats is the only way with the rs-1. every positive comment I ever make about the rs-1 assumes flats. if you want soundstage buy speakers.
JBLoudG20 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 if you dont want shitty music buy speakers. Yeah, sorry you made that mistake.
en480c4 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 HF-1 w/ flats? Bad. Boomy, muddled and congested. RS-1 w/ flats? Bad. See above. Yuck. Just... Yuck. RS-1 w/ bowls? Early, pre-serial number/brown headband - Amazing. Everything I like about the HF-1 w/ bowls, but with better high-end detail with no harshness, better controlled bass that extends lower. Buttoned/serial numbered? Kill me now. Seriously. Unlistenable. Horrible. Horrible. New buttonless ones - A pleasant surprise. I really enjoyed Haj's pair at the mini-meet.

Brown leather RS-1s with flats = bad? WTF, dude, you are so wrong. I will try them with bowls tonight but you are so wrong...
jp11801 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 Brown leather RS-1s with flats = bad? WTF, dude, you are so wrong. I will try them with bowls tonight but you are so wrong... early RS1s are flats all they way, that is the way they were designed. Having owned brown leathers and black no serial # they are much better with flats. The bowls sit in the drawer waiting for the day I get ps1s again.
The Monkey Posted April 18, 2008 Author Report Posted April 18, 2008 Is the old skool RS-1 (brown leather) really that much better? They have been selling for big bucks.
en480c4 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 Brown leather RS-1s with flats = bad? WTF, dude, you are so wrong. I will try them with bowls tonight but you are so wrong... nikongod's with (admittedly squished) bowls was absolutely amazing out of everything from Nate's balanced mini^3, my Millett and his Toaster Supra. It improved on everything I love about my woodied HF-1 without losing any of the magic. I listened to them with flats and the magic was gone. Completely. To each their own, I guess.
NotoriousBIG_PJ Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 I also use squished bowls. It tames the highs vs. normal bowls without adding the extra bass of the flats. Its not the perfect solution, but its a nice alternative. I certainly prefer flats over regular bowls. Biggie.
aerius Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 I'm going between squished bowls and flats depending on the music, most of the time I'm using squished bowls since they have a nice balance, but sometimes I want the extra bass to fill out thin sounding CDs and switch to flats.
laxx Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 What are these squished bowls you guys are speaking of?
grawk Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 wash them in warm soapy water, then rinse clean, then dry while setting something heavy on them
en480c4 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 Old bowls that have lost some of their shape. I've washed mine a few times, but only because my cat likes to bite them. But considering they're the original bowls that came with my HF-1s, they've definitely lost some of the springiness. Some go to great lengths squishing new bowls... Multiple washings, putting them under heavy books, and stuff like that.
