en480c4 Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Surprise 60th birthday party for my mom... It was a great group of her family and friends, and she was absolutely shocked when she walked in. Pretty cool day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt Peanuts Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Did some laundry and got some nice listening session in with the new setup. Just finished raking the front yard - it took a lot longer than we were expecting. I'll have to rake the backyard next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopstretch Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Nursed sick children, made pancakes, arranged to meet a nasty margin call, built a Play-Doh moonbase, got laid on the sly, watched "Finding Nemo" for the 32nd time, tapped a keg of homebrew. I guess I always pictured middle age as more restful. We had to evacuate out house due to fumes all day. That blew all my plans. Assume we're not talking farts here? What happened?

JBLoudG20 Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Assume we're not talking farts here? What happened? Just a kitchen floor being refinished, when we were told it wouldn't happen until tomorrow when no one is home anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torpedo Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Went to work, taught a resident how to make a couple of surgeries, got back home and in the way bought some milk, yogurt and Coke, ate delicious "coca" (kind of pizza without mozzarella and way more stuffed), received the new ESW10 and been listening to them for the most part of the rest of the day, paid the Sonny Rollins gold disc I bought from Deepak, listened to my brother in law's radio show while chatting with him and other station staff, dinned "ensaimada" (a delicious cake stuffed with truffle chocolate cream and threaded sweetmeat), watched a couple of Frasier old episodes with wife, now giving the last round to the forums. Busy day huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aardvark baguette Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 How do you like the 10jpns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torpedo Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 How do you like the 10jpns? I'm quite impressed for the tonal balance, a bit bass heavier than neutral, but more than acceptable in the midrange and treble. Overly smooth and pretty natural. For the price I had wished a stronger wire, I find it a bit thin for portables which aren't IEM. We'll see how the shape after some burn-in, but not really wishing they go profound changes, I like them as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aardvark baguette Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 The wire leaves something to be desired I suppose. They feel less brittle than my PX100 wires at least, though they're about the same size. I dont know if I would consider my 10jpns to be fully burned in or not, but I haven't noticed much change in tone, or any other characteristics.

I dont know if I would consider my 10jpns to be fully burned in or not, but I haven't noticed much change in tone, or any other characteristics. Some have reported tightening of the bass, but I find it rather tight already, maybe they just got accustomed to their "bass heaviness", and also smoothing in the treble, but it's not harsh IMO. Probably the best surprise for me has been the quality of the voices. Too early to say though, I haven't listened to "my girls" yet. Promising nonetheless.

bperboy Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Picked up three big stacks of LPs from my g'pa's house... looks to be some good, classic stuff in there! Now I need a good, starter LP, and a line stage to build! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fungi Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 If you find them bassier than neutral and most people agree that they're less bassy than the ESW9... I can't wait to get mine. To stay OT, I went to class, did some more translating (a tiny bit), sat around and read some stuff, and am now pretending to program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopstretch Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 The kids were apparently practicing for the New England Regional Cookie Tossing Championships all night. Based on their current form, I'd say they are both tipped to finish near the top of their respective weight classes. Ran out of clean PJs and bedsheets by 3 a.m. or so and had to do laundry, so just gave up on shut-eye and put a pot of coffee on. Today will be dedicated to barely keeping it all together and perhaps a deeply-ironic first viewing of the new "Sleeping Beauty" Blu-ray transfer. On the bright side, FedEx reports that my new GS-1 will be here tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear you had a crappy night, I've been there and will surely be there again at some point. Although midnight laundry has not been required so far (knocks on wood). On the bright side, FedEx reports that my new GS-1 will be here tomorrow. Wuhoo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
