    By far the best concert I have been to. I've seen them twice now. The version of indigo children they played, i have been trying to find ever since. It was beautiful. Great tune. Not the live version, but for others to enjoy... Turn on your subs for this...

    I doubt you would expect this from me, but this is one you have got to watch/hear. My favorite musician/singer in his offbeat side project. It is Maynard of Tool/A Perfect Circle fame. Killer version of this tune. Wake up, son of mine Momma got something to tell you Changes come Life will have it's way With your pride, son Take it like a man Hang on, son of mine A storm is blowing up your horizon Changes come Keep your dignity Take the high road Take it like a man Listen up, son of mine Momma got something to tell you All about growing pains Life will pound away Where the light don't shine, son Take it like a man Suck it up, son of mine Thunder blowing up your horizon Changes come (Changes come) Keep your dignity (Keep your dignity) Take the high road (Take the high road) Take it like a man (Take it like a man) Momma said like the rain (This, too, shall pass) Like a kidney stone (This, too, shall pass) It's just a broken heart, son This pain will pass away

    Gavin and I just spent the last hour pulling tree stumps with the white Town Car. I still have to find a way to trim around the power lines. And seriously, your daughter is just gorgeous. I couldn't deal with that. Roundup.

    When I first took them out, I would say pretty accurate. Remember I mentioned how thin vocals and midrange were? I would say the highs were more exaggerated than suggested when I first fired them up. At this point I think they are fairly linear. Bottom end may be a bit heavy, and vocals a tad thin, but not 6db.

    They come in a nice semi rigid case and a microfiber tie bag. There are 2 sets of cables with them as well.

    Sure did. When I first fired them up I was concerned. Vocals were thin because the midrange was lacking. There was a lot of confusion with difficult instrumentation. But I left them play for about 4 hours and came back to a beautiful set. Mind you, I have never really been into cans. I grabbed a nice set of Sony ES cans 20 years ago, but never really fell into them. I have always enjoyed setting up an environment rather than just sticking speakers on my ear. But I wanted to do something new. Honestly, I think I may look into building a tube amp after I buy one to play with a bit. I want to get accustomed to setting it up, rolling, etc, before I climb into building one. I want to try out some HD600s, but I want an amp before I snag them... Oh, Norah Jones through these things...

    Sennheiser must be German for ear sex. Holy fuck are these cans nice. Now I need to jump into the amp, fast...

    Yep. You want an external with an aux fan. I assume you are going to loosen up the converter as well, yes?

    I can't say, Adrian. Pressures aren't really high, and if you did it and it held on the overflow I assume it would work, but without any real experience I will have to claim ignorance on this one, my friend. Sorry. Bwaaaaa, nobody wants to help me bla-bla-bla It held on the overflow, I mean I was supposed to leave the house, quickly sanded the crack, added superglue, baking soda, repeat 3 times to make a big patch, change clothes and drive. No leaks, no x hours to cure. Last I recall the overflow cap has a 15psi valve. When squeezing the top radiator hose I can't feel much pressure. I have the old radiator from the Miata, I can use it to test how well the mix sticks to radiator end tanks. Slightly related...if I buy another used radiator, I'm afraid of transmission cooler failure. What if I just ditch the in-radiator cooler and use a normal radiator for the transmission? External is fine... better than internal, in fact. I like the Wurth glue. The accelerant makes it even more awesome. Wurth is an awesome company. What about warm-up and all that jazz during winter? Trans function best when cold.

    I'm honestly feeling lazy. I looked at the one Adrian posted and didn't get that warm and fuzzy feeling. It was cool, and would be a fun project, but I'm not feeling it at this point.

    Cans will be here tomorrow. Think I decided on my amp, now I need to grab up some upgraded tubes... if I don't change my mind. I found a few amps I really liked. I was going to take the plunge on a Jolida unit that was a demo, but it is 30 ohm capable. I liked one of the high end little dots... 32 ohms. All these damn units I like are 30 ohm systems.

    Glad you made it Seth!! Here is the thing,I am not to happy about some one playing with my ass..The doctors and all the staff at work are all females,but still I think I would feel kind of awkward.. From my understanding this is a camera tube that views the bowel's ect..Would this be possible to be something I could tackle myself,record and return to said doctors would make stress and anxiety a lot easier on me... Have no clue what i am looking for to record,But this is on sale at my local store and I have been meaning to buy one anyway,but does not come with the Micro SD card but I have a extra 16G just setting around that I could record and just give the doctors that.. This is what I was looking at,Not a bad price but Harbor Freight's shit is hit and miss... http://www.harborfreight.com/high-resolution-digital-inspection-camera-with-recorder-61838.html And yes, we know you are blown out enough to use this.

    Get one. As a colon cancer survivor (almost didn't survive), I can't preach it enough. Get it on a Friday as you will shit your branis out for 12 hours before hand, and you won't be able to sit for a couple days due to the wipage...
