HeadphoneAddict Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Stepped on the scale and saw a number starting with 210. I am officially back down to where I was 18 months ago, 37lbs lost so far. Long way still to go but I think I'll make 200lbs by my birthday in a little over a month. Great job - Keep it up! I've been holding steady at 213-214 lbs since March, after dropping from 265 between October and February. I'm back to where I was 10 years ago, but about 15 lbs more than I was 15 years ago. I'm glad I saved most of my "skinny" clothes that my wife kept pushing me to throw out, but if I lose another 15 lbs I'll have to go shopping again.

shellylh Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 (edited) They dark gray looks pretty sweet but I think I have decided to go with an all black (BHSE) since I think it will go better with the rest of the gear. If anyone has a pic of the black and grey next to one another, I would love to see it. Spikey or rubber feet? My stand is not perfectly level because of the ever shifting foundation under our house but it isn't too bad. I have a Sanus audio stand so the surface is a bit slickish.

Dreadhead Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Deal is I don't get my new bike until I am under 200 so that will happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black is the right move, and I love the rubber feet. So much less hassle and I can't imagine it being a downgrade on sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shellylh Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 They seem much more practical, just a little funny looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morphsci Posted October 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 But the sharp spiky feet will be much more useful when the zombie apocalypse arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Chalk Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 But the sharp spiky feet will be much more useful when the zombie apocalypse arrives.They're hardly long enough to do anything but hurt, which means they can be used against us more than against the zombies.

shellylh Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Obviously Justin should have a Hog Hunter option with the BHSE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morphsci Posted October 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 But that's what the Pig Sticker or Hog Hunter or whatever it is called is for! You can never have too many weapons for fighting zombies. Ask Jeff. They're hardly long enough to do anything but hurt, which means they can be used against us more than against the zombies. Well let's see. I could use them as projectiles in my blunderbuss, or affix them to a stick for a spear, or to an arrow shaft as a heavy duty projectile or ... Obviously Justin should have a Hog Hunter option with the BHSE. I like the way you think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 The important thing is that the BHSE is heavy enough to be an impediment if placed on top of the zombie, especially if the points go through whatever (clothes, flap of flesh, entrails) to the floor, but I didn't think about that until after I posted.

MexicanDragon Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Spikey feet are hot. Get "audiophile rubber spike holders" (I'm sure someone makes them) to put under it. That way, it's sexy, and pragmatic, and you still get to hurt zombies that don't have allergic reactions to rubber. **BRENT** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spritzer Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 While the spikes may look awesome they are an utter pain if you have to move the amp and they will damage most surfaces. I use the spike cups I got with my ES-1 to make sure they don't damage my 100$ IKEA rack but this also means I never, ever move the amp. Sadly mine is the older version so it can't use the rubber feet... Why there is no love for silver I just don't get. It looks amazing in contrast with the rest of the chassis. Can't wait to finish disassembling and cleaning this SR-Omega and fire it up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morphsci Posted October 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Cool Beans Dan. I use spike cups and have no problem moving the BHSE around when I want to. But then again I'm a pretty manly man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
