        Official numbers are pretty low, bear in mind that there's no access to some places still. But I doubt we reach those numbers (hopefully we won't!) Now, as you say, what can go wrong is people going crazy because they can't get their hands on food or supply! We'll see how stuff develops. I would prefer to militarize things but oh well...

        I really hope things get moving along quickly. I don't know about militarizing but it would probably help if they just sent a bunch of national guard over there to do the district. I know the have plenty of truck drivers in the military.

      Really want to buy another Sinn watch, but then, Hurricane Irma is about to hit us and $ will probably go to the house. Freaking season!

        Hope there's no damage and you're all safe. Irma seems very powerful.

        We'll see. Seems to be one of the most powerful ones yet on the Atlantic/Caribbean. Patiently waiting for it to go by fast! Pretty sure power will go out in 3, 2, 1... ;)

        Might I recommend "Reality Checkpoint" and "Tough Guys Don't Dance" on that label, two of their all-time classics? (I have an awful lot of Hospital releases)

        Forza Horizon series has THE best racing soundtracks in a videogame. Hospital Records is fantastic!

        The CMXI has some really interesting things going on with the movement. Not my style, but I can certainly see the attraction. I agree with Kunlun, please post your collection in the watch thread.

        On the other hand, even tho I understand bassheads, +12db bass region does horrible things to overall sound, it ruins the mids, it ruins the details, it ruins everything. It's the same thing with all the bass boosted nonsense. God I don't know who listen to those. 2/2

        I don't have a problem with well-done bass-emphasized cans, some of which are noted in the article. But the generalization that we all like that is . . . well a generalization. IMHO, even well-done bass-emphasized cans just do not work well with certain music. Some lighter acoustic/folk/rock sound really bad to me with any kind of boosted bass, for example.

        So, I have always shied away from those types of cans even though there are quite a few that I have enjoyed in demos. Also, the bass emphasis gets kind of one note after a while and can become boring to me. So for me, it is not neutrality that is boring, but this sort of one-note'ish bass emphasis. That said, if anyone wants to gift me the new Fostex I am all open arms. :)
