Tekzilla Talks About Headphone Amps
Check out Episode #35. Nice take on headphone amps, and a plug for head-fi.org. Plus, Veronica rocking a pair of AKG K701s.
Episode 35 - Headphone Amps, Defrag OS X, YouTube Compression
We should invite Patrick to the Northern California meet.

I guess they got their prices for the 701s from a gougemiester. You can get them new for around $260 if you search even a little. Props to them for mentioning Head-Fi and Headroom.

Respect to him...I was expecting the worst. I think he did a pretty good job with that , given the time constraints.

I don't know about that, but I know she was one of the reporters at one recent electronics event (reported on by Engadget, of course), and on Engadget the comments about her wouldn't stop.

She's cute enough but I think a lot of the attraction stems from the fact that she's a nerd who is attractive. This really isn't that uncommon anymore, but the stereotype that nerdy girls are ugly remains somehow.

I have been a fan of Patrick since his days on the TechTV network. I am not surprised at all that he got it right. In fact I would have been surprised if he got it wrong.
