Sounds kind of similar to what I experienced with the DT770's. If you have access to EQ at all, try scooping out some lower mids, like somewhere between the ~250-500Hz area, and see if that helps at all.

 

If the bass itself is just boomy that wouldn't really help though...

Meh I'll just let it burn in for another day or two and then figure it out from there; also fml from the 4 CD's I got only 1 isn't on what.cd. So lame.

At least T50RPs will be here early next week. Don't know if they will be worth much stock though.

It's not worth much. You could make sure to get used to it, since you'd be easier to be blown away wit minimal mods LOL.

Can't you stretch the bands away to make it less clampy? Hell, Val himself wouldn't be afraid to throw around the M80 (he did btw) so stretching wouldn't be a problem.

Virtual instruments used for playback when I'm working on my music. Unfortunately, as I dreadfully found out the hard way today, RAM is becoming a major issue. I always knew I didn't have enough to handle the more deep VSTs but I ran out before loading 8 instruments today. *sigh*

I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the tip; though the clamping force does make it fit perfectly on my pikachu..

Also; same time to study for an ochem quiz I was supposed to have started studying for like 7 hours ago... meh. See you guys tommorow~ Today seemed kind of slow :P.

I think it looks awful because of the glossy finish. DasKeyboard's Mechanical Keyboards would look amazing if they had a matte finish. I like the simple design of their boards, but I prefer tenkeyless (Topre Realforce 87U or some Costar based board like Filco or CMStorm's new batch of Quickfires which have less branding).

 

I have a Filco mechanical tenkeyless with a JIS layout upstairs. I like the big enter space but some of the keys in the 5th row (2nd row from top) are rather small. Sort of miss the function key too since I use it all the time on my laptop since it has media controls mapped to them, but I can always program the function keys on top of my board to do that too.

Overclocking became very easy with Sandy Bridge (Ivy Bridge is easy too). It's when you start getting to the chip's limits is when it's difficult.

3D model of the board + holes...

 

LOL. Actually, I start off like that when making motherboards with mounting holes for Google SketchUp users. I've made an ATX and mATX standard board model on Google SketchUp.

Google translate, which is surprisingly good because the translations usually suck.

But it's just a generic "you're banned letter" that doesn't specifically deal with why you were suspended.  The bit about eBay seller fees was just put there as a common problem you may want to look at

 

The link in the letter led me to a wall of text about all the reasons one could get suspended.  Contacting them directly seems to be your best bet

 

Sorry still don't really have time to translate it all

That's lame. I see how this has rubbed off on PayPal. PayPal rules can be very strict when you don't follow them. Take a wrong step and you're locked.

Been looking at the MrSpeakers Mad Dog T50RP. Wondering if I should get that instead of the Q701...

Actually in this boat sort of. For me its the k701's (exactly the same I know) vs the paradox. But the pricing is different but it seems like I'd use them for the same thing; aka classical music and the such.

 

Iono; I can't justify spending more money on computer related anything apart from a sound card right now. I just don't use it enough. I was extremely tempted to get the naga for $35/40 w/e it is on woot though... just because my tron malfuntions for like 2/3 seconds once every month but then I thought... meh.

 

Also, FFFFFFFRIGGGGGGGG. So last weeks ochem quiz that was really easy; I lost 7 points on... because I don't know how to copy the number 6. I copied the number 0 instead and it was a multistep problem and lost 7 points for it. Failllllllllllllll. Quiz out of 20 btw. Its like the same thing with my midterm.. I forgot to put lone pairs on my oxygens and lost like 8 points that would have put me in the 91% range instead I got an 87. My life sucks.

What does that have to do with one's academic career? Haha.

 

It pretty much is because that's what everyone's calling it. You do know I said codename right? At the very least it is the de facto codename, haha.

Dunno. People seem to like them a lot. I'll have my own modded T50RP's soon enough.

Pretty big price difference there. Especially if you were to get 701's from the FS forums.

I haven't heard anything about the Paradox mod, unfortunately, so I don't really know too much about it.

 

Naga = no go. It uses a Philips Twin Eye which isn't that good.

I prefer buying my headphones new out of box to be honest. Still like a 200$~+ difference

I aced it. Not a single mistake, and the interviewer even complimented my sense of humor, lol.
I did properly study though (like 15min). There's a guide somewhere on the web telling you what you need to know for the interview.

The Razer Blackwidow (non-ultimate) is a pretty good budget keyboard though. At the time it was the cheapest mechanical keyboard available to me, so I bought it just for that reason. Too bad it's fugly with its annoying font and glossy plastic.

The school I went to generally had more richer people. But still nobody was as rich as having a personal driver. Then again, this is the Netherlands. A personal driver would probably cost you about $50k per year, and it still wouldn't really be much faster than public transport.The education itself wasn't that hard. Only 3-4 people out of ~70 failed, so it can't be that bad. But I'm not one to judge the difficulty of the IB, since I graduated cum laude without much effort. cool.gif

Crap that's chap.

I'm debating whether I'm gonna get one too. I'll do some measurements to see if it fits my B22. If it does, I'm going to buy this unit as a replacement to my NFB-12 and save space, power, and make a profit on selling it too.
