Yep. If it sold even a single headphone, it was worth it.
Of course, for its pure "WTF?!" value, even if it didn't sell a single headphone it was worth it.
I suspected so, but I really didn't want it to be.
I will never be able to look at him the same way again.

You know you're an audiophile when you read you stop listening to music all together because noting seems hi fidelity enough anymore, instead you just listen to sine waves all day.

Quote:Actually, all sounds are fundamentally composed of sine waves, so theoretically we're all listening to sine waves every time we play our music. (And, unless I'm not understanding correctly, you could start with any other basic waveform and combine a bunch of them in a different way to achieve the same result).
But of course I appreciate your joke.

YKYAA when you remember stuff like what's above from random sessions on Wikipedia.
post #6223 of 63561/30/13 at 1:03pmWhen I took down the posters of girls and beer and replaced them with posters of Wilson Audio Alexandra's and well, beer.
Also, when I was at RMAF and I saw a guy wearing a t-shirt that said "Jeff Rowland is my homeboy" and I understood what it meant.
