EDIT: NVM heard back from Justin Loving the match with my ZMF Atticus.

I could probably make it, any weekend really in october and november - weekdays would be almost impossible however as I work 60-70 hours/week.   Right now I have a pair of hifi man he400's, a Channel Islands VDA-1 and VAC-1 and a custom made SOHA. I also have a bookshelf speaker set up that...

It's a walk from the central Latin Quarter, but I've stayed at the Royal Saint Germain when I needed a room on short notice. Nice rooms, located near Montparnasse and Jardin du Luxembourg and some convenient metro stops.

I would add that a lot of people think they have high quality audio systems because they own one of the most expensive speakers pairs or HTIBs from the big box stores. People just arent aware, and most are happy not to care  

Quote: The Unibroue Terrible and the La Fin Du Monde are also great. The ephemere is one that I personally dont care for too much but two of my friends liked that the most. we found a Unibroue sampler that was excellent, not a bad beer in the bunch (unless you don't like tripels like...

Tried a couple beers this weekend, first was from Unibroue, called Maudite, really liked this beer, bold beer with guts that didn't hold back on flavors. Normally this no holds barred approach to beer flavors ends up in disaster, but this beer hits the mark. Complex flavor that will surprise you...

Quote: Yes I also had a bottle of the Gonzo, it's from flying dog, which I think is in Maryland. It's heavy on the roasted (almost burnt) flavor, which I think a lot of people are turned off by. I thought it was pretty good, but both my friends agreed with you. You should try the...

Deschites Porter, not a conniseur of porters by any means but this one was really tasty, had a porter from Left Hand as well, but I preferred  the Deschutes. Real tasty, Oregon's been doing me right lately. If anyone has some recommendations for some good porters I'm all ears.       ...

I still can't believe Christina Aguilera flubbed the National Anthem, its what 15 lines long!? oy

  Quote:     HD is a great step up, especially now that the early transition and early adoption phases have passed. Did you opt for 60 or 120hZ?

I'm "loaning" a tv from Best Buy for the weekend, bought a big steak made some salsa and queso and have my chips in hand. I'm very excited, love the super bowl, but am nervous it wont be a good game, last years game was quite dull (yes i know the saints converted an onside kick) so I want a game...

I would love to see earth from the "outside". I honestly believe the world would be a better place if we all had a chance to spend a few days on a space station

120hz definitely comes down to taste, for some movies I really liked it, for most I didn't appreciate the effect. 120 and 240hz are great for sports but I think buying a less expensive but higher quality 60hz set would be the way to go.

With only an hour I'd probably never progress past denial, so nothing real special   Otherwise I'd grab a sledgehammer and head for a lighting/lamp store. Seeing as there's plenty of money in this town I might try and steal a ferrari or the R8 i've seen cruising through town and go for a...
