Waterproof, nuclear or diesel?

What are your thoughts? I assume it's the implementation and quality of the driver/amp that matters more. For what it's worth, in my office system the Rhythmik L12 spanks the Dayton SUB-1200, but that's probably not a fair fight. :)

@zonto - I figure proper design is what matters. If JBL is producing a +$20k speaker that's ported, I assume they aren't doing it for cost cutting.

Someone tried telling me that ALL ported speakers are just them trying to cheap out of adding an additional driver and are inherently flawed.

I met a few guys who were heavy into stats at the last ZMFestivus and one of these was available. They were probably more proud and excited about these than the Stax they had. Unfortunately, the amp these were supposed to be attached to had to have the bias switched or something so I missed my chance to hear them. They were reasonably comfortable and normal on the head which is a first for estats.

Thought I was having an episode when I checked in a while back, haha. "Click here" in orange text up top links back to classic mode but I don't hate this, honestly. Would like option for both.

Yeah looks cool! Can't click on "new profile posts" though from the new page. Also was thinking just the other day that the 5 year anniversary is coming up!

I think it's a work in progress still...things changing & availability sporadic while it's being worked on

Overdoing it each in our own special way. Seems like your family had a blast though, which more than makes up for it haha. Happy holidays dude.

The spirits of Christmas!

Goodness, that reminds me of my misspent youth!

And I'm in the flu club, too, but, thankfully, not stomach.

Wishing us all well!

@SoupRKnowva - just feel like both use the medium as a distraction rather than treating music/literature the focus it deserves.

I mean to each their own, but still

I guess that depends, with reading in the bathroom, what are you distracting yourself from? youre just sitting there, reading seems reasonable. with music at work I can agree, it depends on your usage, for me I cant listen to music with alot of what I do, but sometimes I do something relatively mindless and listen to music as the main event

True story - I had a friend in high school that took War & Peace to the bathroom with him and didn't leave until 4 hours later

Maybe try Gentle Giant. Clasically trained players with complex arrangements but also rock too.

I almost recommended Gentle Giant earlier. But of a mixed bag at time but check out Octopus. There is a Steven Wilson remix out there.

Tons of good options already, but I'll second Jupiter by Cave In. That's just a great f'ing rock album.
Tilts more metal, but Cynic's Focus might be worthwhile. Perhaps the first two Mars Volta records if you're feeling adventurous and want some Afro-Cuban influence mixed in.

For sure, they done

Rockets might actually make the finals this time

Not if the Clippers bandwagon has anything to say about it.

Okay, second attempt today

Goddamn it. Another bust. Lots of people out today and probably scooped everything before I could.

Sorry to hear that.

The British South-coast spring tides, iirc, are two or three days after the full and new moon --- so, if it is the same on your side of the Channel, you may yet have a better chance.

Ultramarathoners are total freaks as well. I’ve got a friend who set an age 60-64 record by running 220 miles in 48 hours.

For anyone who enjoys this sort of thing, I recommend Endure by Alex Hutchinson. It'll be required reading for my cross team once I start coaching again.

On first read I thought you’d been cranking your subwoofer for 2 hours.

Ojneg got banned if that helps.
You'll be missed while you're away and welcomed when you're back.

Need to finish projects anyway. PMs are the one email notifications i get, open to everyone

I hope those projects include preparing delicious food and sharing pictures once you are back

Also next to a thousand year old church. I don't know how much more burn in it needs

Check out Notre Damme.

Ice cold

Or one thread which is 600 pages of irrelevant drivel and material better suited to PMs.

I'm digging low-profile mech keyboards these days. Is there a Topre low-profile option? I had a Realforce some years ago but I think it would feel too high profile for my current preferences.

I've looking at low-profile switches too. Mainly for a personal project for a portable typewriter.

The Cherry switches don't seem available for DIY use yet, so I'll need to go with the Kailh switches.

The additional expense for a premium keyboard doesn't seem like a waste either. Keyboards are probably the one piece of hardware that can last for decades. IBM keyboards from the 80s can still find use today

Also seems to be an fe103nv coming. I don't know if this is special or replacing the fe103en

@frenchbat - back and it's soooo much cooler

I'm confused. Thought you were settled in California

Moved to France. Recently went to Montpellier to visit friends and get tortured by heat. Now in Bretagne for an indefinite period of time.

Will try to visit you when I figure out logistics

I will say that my hair is significantly shorter now than it was a few months back when I had a scraggly mop, and that that might have been a factor in my changing feelings about the Meze 99 bass :))

*wears thick-framed glasses, has thick, long hair, possibly even wears a hat, and listens to a pair of headphones*

@Hands that's called an "image song" thanks very much.

(Lol)

Ya, the all Canadian roster for the Raptors was outstanding. Equally impressive was all American line up for the St. Louis Blues...

... and you probably forgot who created basketball, the orginal "Dr. J".

And it's only now being made public... damnation.

Yep. Should at least have been digitised.
