    Post the last thing you bought. Oh fun!

    A $27 dollar coolant tube for my SUV. It's coming from Germany and won't be here until next Monday... I'm glad the warranty is paying the $1260 in labour though, for that I can wait a week

    Amps to pair with Grados

    Woo Audio 6SE I tried the RA1 at my local shop, I wasn't overly impressed. It was decent, but in my opinion, overpriced for what you're getting.

    How close do you sit to your source?

    My laptop is silent unless I'm doing something intensive, in which case I'm likely working on stuff rather than critically listening so it doesn't really bother me. My laptop sits on my desk, <3 feet away.

    Retail therapy: How many of you buy audio stuff when your life is in the toilet?

    I had a ****ty week three weeks ago when I ordered my GS1000's. I had a great weekend this week. The GS1000's were paid for thanks to my local casino Now, if something else happens I'll have to order some PS1000's! To be honest, yes, I usually do spend money when the s**t...

    Do you like lamb?

    Next to some well prepared bison, lamb is my favorite meat I'll take a slab of lamb over a filet any day! Bison, on the other hand, is incredible. If you haven't tried it, please do whenever you get the chane!

    Cheap Mini to Mini Interconnect in Canada?

    I usually just order from monoprice, they ship internationally and for this kind of thing it should be sufficient quality. I'm not sure what shipping would be, probably pretty nonsensically expensive for this actually... I usually wait until I need a bunch of cables for friends or something...

    Grado SR225 Thread

    Sorry guys, it won't stop. The SR-225's were my first set of good cans, less than six months later I'm in for almost $2000, including the GS-1000's. Say good bye to any financial plans you have for the next little while

    Finance vs Accounting Major

    I'm double majoring, accounting and finance. Kill me now. At least I didn't go finance/economics, that was my next choice... Economics is my main area of interest, but the job opportunity just isn't there it seems.

    Best computer chair? Herman Miller Aeron, Steelcase Leap, Humanscale Freedom?

    I have an Eames aluminum executive chair, high back in white, and find it very comfortable. The only problem is when I have jeans on I need to put something over it, or the chair turns blue... It's very comfortable, fits my style well and everyone loves it

    Decreasing marginal returns; Are High end headphones worth the money?

    What, you don't think those awesome new Beats by Dr. Dre are awesome or something? Let's not get started on Skullcandy... But yeah, to clarify what I was saying, only the consumer can determine whether or not headphones are worth it or not. I've had my GS1000's for less than a day and...

    Decreasing marginal returns; Are High end headphones worth the money?

    Well, I can tell somebody has at the very least taken an introductory economics course But anyways, law of diminishing returns is completely true when it comes to headphones the vast majority of the time. A $150 set of headphones will likely be 90-95% as good as a $1000 set to an...

    Can you enjoy lossy (compressed) music through your favorite headphones?

    The lowest I'll usually go for is MP3 VBR V0's, and that's only if the FLAC for the album absolutely isn't available. I tihnk I have about half a dozen V2's, and they're from bands that don't have funds available to properly record.

    Cambridge DACMagic, anyone?

    To update my previous situation: I took my DACMagic in to the shop I bought it from and they said they would try to find the problem, but that they were busy and to call on Thursday if I haven't heard back from them by then. They called today and said they found the problem (it was something...
