Boston meet?
I'll try to be there too! I should be able to bring my Meridian 506 CD player and Melos SHA-1 amp. As for headphones, I don't really have a good pair to match with them right now, but I can bring my Beyer 250-250s.- DanG

New Belle & Sebastian album "Write About Love" free streaming on NPR.org until Oct. 12th release
Those are both great albums -- I'd definitely recommend Dear Catastrophe Waitress as well. It's got some of my favorite Belle&Sebastian songs on it. -
New Belle & Sebastian album "Write About Love" free streaming on NPR.org until Oct. 12th release
I’m sure a lot of you will find this as exciting as I did when I first found out from a friend yesterday: Belle and Sebastian’s new album, Write About Love, due to be released Tuesday next week, is available to stream for free from NPR.org up until its release. ... -
Berlin headfi/HIFI-FORUM meet on Sept. 11th: post your impressions and pictures here
Thanks for the suggestion, but after the ordeal of getting up there, I don't know if I'll be so adventurous again. But Sepinho had actually wanted to go to The Bird except that apparently it has about 2 tables. So he wasn't able to get a reservation. If I do make it back, I will try a burger...- DanG

Berlin headfi/HIFI-FORUM meet on Sept. 11th: post your impressions and pictures here
Thanks Sepinho and m00hk00h for organizing such a successful event! We didn't have a huge crowd, but that made it more intimate and I personally thought it was better this way. And thanks to Matthias and Oliver of Sennheiser for coming. If you're reading this, it was great to meet both of...- DanG

Joint European Head-Fi/HIFI-FORUM.de Meet in Berlin, Sept. 11th. It's on!
Also, I will be able to bring my gently beat-up Ultrasone HFI-650 as well as my Beyerdynamic DT250-250.- DanG

Joint European Head-Fi/HIFI-FORUM.de Meet in Berlin, Sept. 11th. It's on!
Unfortunately, my car is now full on the way to Berlin... yipes, there's a lot of people on Mitfahrzentrale who are looking short term! I have one place free on the way back, though, but that will probably get filled pretty soon too. I'd be leaving at 3pm on Sunday.- DanG

Joint European Head-Fi/HIFI-FORUM.de Meet in Berlin, Sept. 11th. It's on!
Though I already told you, just so it's here, I'll be getting in after 5, and hopefully before 6. I hope to be able to hit a decent Getränkemarkt on the way to pick up a wonderful Badisch surprise. Sepinho, it's a secret, so no telling! :)- DanG

Joint European Head-Fi/HIFI-FORUM.de Meet in Berlin, Sept. 11th. It's on!
It looks like I'll be coming -- but if there's anyone who would like to come along for the ride from Freiburg to split the gas and keep me company, that would be great! Although I suppose most people have already made travel arrangements already. But if you haven't, or if you were going to...- DanG

European meetup - post your ideas here
Well, I actually live over 3 hours away by train. That's why I couldn't commit so very much time. If we were to have a meet in Freiburg (where I live), I could do more. But Freiburg is not easily accessible by plane, so I would not recommend it.- DanG

European meetup - post your ideas here
Sorry, haven't read through everything but would certainly recommend Frankfurt or Düsseldorf over Berlin and Hamburg for Germany. Both are more-easily accessible (by trains, planes, and automobiles) and should be better ausgestattet for conventions, if you'll pardon my German. Also, Hamburg...- DanG

how many of you guys cook???
Today, I made a delicious tomato sauce for my dinner of Matzah pizza (chag sameach, everyone!). Tomato puree with a bunch of spices -- pepper, salt, basil, oregano, thyme, paprika, cayenne pepper. But the most important ingredient is spicy Turkish ajvar. Topped with some Emmentaler cheese...- DanG

ER-4P vs. JH-13 Pro and ES3X
Hi ephemere, I hope you don't mind if I bring this rather old thread back to the front. I saw that you had bought the JH13 after all, but then returned them for a refit. Since you also listen to classical music, love the ER-4S except for the comfort factor, and are not a big fan of the HD600, it...- DanG

How sensitive are the er4s?
The ER-4S is the one headphone I've kept for 8 years. I can confirm that it is as insensitive as many full-size headphones whether you mean in its need for amplification or to your sensibilities regarding how well you would have liked your favorite artists to have recorded their music. On the...- DanG

Recommend me music: classical / orchestral
Also, just a slightly superfluous (I hope) clarification: when I say "mediocre," this is, of course, from my perspective. I don't think there's anything wrong with listening to Holst or Elgar's music. Hell, you can listen to Philip Glass for all I care. But I think it's worth listening to the... -
Recommend me music: classical / orchestral
I still don't get why such mediocre composers like Holst and Elgar always get recommended right away to someone interested in learning about "classical" music. These are second- and third-string guys. Start with the names that you do know -- and with good reason. Mozart, Beethoven, Bach. They... -
Radiohead vs. Coldplay
I know you didn't want any bashing, but have you ever listened to Coldplay's lyrics? They can't write them, so they just put words down to sing something along with their pleasant music. And the music still doesn't compare to Radiohead. And that's from someone who basically only listens to... -

Bluetooth Mouse?
So, I've gotten my Sony Vaio bluetooth mouse and have been using it for the last few days. It pairs up quite easily with my Vaio. It looks nice, though it's not exactly a piece of art as some yahoos on Amazon claimed. Unfortunately, it's not the most comfortable of mice. It's comfortable and...- DanG

Bluetooth Mouse?
I wanted to get one too for my new Vaio. I ended up getting the Sony Vaio one because... it looks cool. It was a little expensive, though, at $60 from Amazon. I should have it next week, if you haven't bought one by then, I'll let you know if it's any good!- DanG

Guitar-fi anyone?
Thanks guys, I actually went shopping yesterday because I really really wanted to have some kind of amp for my guitar... so I got a Peavey Bandit 112. 100W for a 12" speaker... a little silly. Doesn't sound amazing, but it was 300 euros new, so I wasn't expecting much. Got to the store five...- DanG

Guitar-fi anyone?
I'm still looking for an amp, but I just bought my first nice electric guitar -- a Gibson 1961 SG Reissue. From the serial number, if I'm reading it right, I gather it was made in 2006. Sounded beautiful out of the Bogner in the store and my friend's Orange Drop. I'm thinking I might get a...- DanG

I've been away from Head-Fi for a little while and missed this thread. May I join in, preferably with a European member, by any chance? Anyone still without a partner?- DanG

What's your saving strategy?
Everything goes to my bank account. No way I'm going to put anything in the stock market these days. And I could use the money! Plus, the 3,8% I get here in my German bank account isn't so bad.- DanG
