About 5 miles south of the state line.

Same with physics. All required math basically adds up to a math minor.

This profile post makes me happy. Just avoid Abstract Algebra. It's the devil's math. :P

^agree 1000%

You taken thermodynamics yet?

I think he's taking Dynamics and Thermodynamics next semester. Along with some design class and statistics for engineers.

Statics, dynamics & kinematics were fine. I still use dynamics to explain the difference between leg press, Smith machine squats & free-weight squats.
Thermodynamics absolutely kicked my ass. Much later, I gained an appreciation for how many things can be explained by the 2nd Law.

Every year around this time I just enjoy that I'm still getting older.

Clicking "Like" multiple times doesn't give more likes. :|

My favorite Led Zeppelin song is "Bring It On Home" off of Led Zep II. I use it as a test song, and if all is well, I'm set. :-)

I can't pick just one to call it a favorite. But I did use Bonzo's Montreux and Nobody's Fault But Mine (live) and Down By The Seaside with the DAC1421 audition.

I don’t mind. We all have thick skin. Figured it would come from one of the regulars!

I just thought you left your browser open, and she walked by...

I wouldn't put that past her or my sons, but I'm the guilty party!

If anyone out there was on the fence about taking the vinyl plunge, this box set is the excuse to go out and get a decent vinyl rig. :-)

"Livin On A Prayer" is still a good song. I give you that...

I was listening to Slippery When Wet - which has, of course, “Livin’ On A Prayer.” Catchy tune.

Happy Thanksgiving!

How would one say SBAF in Swedish-chef?

I guess I could do Pig Latin. AFSBay or Upersay Estbay Audioway Iendsfray

Curious. Second time in a couple of days I came across "pig latin," and I didn't know what it means.
Post-google, oh-yes-that! My parents used to use it: you can fool most of the people most of the time.
Anyway, thanks for pushing me over the google edge on that one.

Details?

Replaced stock cables on HD650 w/Silver Dragon v3. Veil lifted, bass tightened up - all w/out losing outstanding ability to resolve.

yeah they really do. I was genuinely kind of surprised what a difference it makes.

Could always try a moo mat for ultimate bestiality

I use cork mat on my 1200.

I'm leaning towards (nearest to vinyl to furthest) Stock | Leather | Poly-Metal. Primarily for VTA purposes, since I can't detect any difference in how things sound.

Focal needs to step their cable game up..I would be so much happier if their cables were just round instead of flat..

@scapeinator1 I love the Utopia cable. Super easy to fold up. A reliable source has observed it may be custom Mogami W3106. Not sure if or how Clear/Elex cable differs.

@zonto that cable is different. You know not the pain and suffering the clear's spaghetti cables cause me.

They use an old school Sabre chip in that one. I think it's pre-9018, which is bad enough...

That's correct. Choice may have been driven by cost, but they are pretty fussy over there, so perhaps the implementation is good. Haven't pulled trigger yet.

New sub is quite a bit larger than old sub... fortunately, adequate room exists. Sounds better. Cleaner. Less boomy/flabby/distorted.

With my bookshelf speakers, I never realized how much the subwoofer contributed to the experience until I was without a sub.
