Happy Thanksgiving all! Just letting y’all know that the Tower of Power is still alive and well! It’s at my folks’ place now and I fired it up and it still sounds super amazing (the Darth Grados by Headphile and the Maestrobated Melos SHA-Gold kill!):

Whoa. Someone at work invited us to an "Escape the Room" experience. Anyone remember the virtual head-fi escape the room experience? One of the rooms had my personification in it:

Sorry to hear that news a month too late Bozebuttons. Those NYC meets were always fun back when I didn't have a bum ear. RIP Ken. And yea head-fi is older than both my kids, and my oldest is reading up on the high school exam! Crazy, I remember when Mr.Slacker was a high school kid who came to...

I still have mine too, the Maestrobator and the Darth Grado HP2s with Headphile cups. Ear still shot but maybe my kid will like it someday.

Well my kid's old enough to want headphones of his own - he wanted beats of course, but I managed to compromise with him by getting the urban-oriented Sennheiser Urbanite XL Instead.  Yes, lots of bass, but not offendingly so.

Graveyard bump since this video was shared over at the gear page forums, where I also pop in here and there: http://youtu.be/Bo3O9QrfvNw Golly. http://youtu.be/1KnV5_G0LJE Holy moly that intro http://youtu.be/VcnP24CKTXk

Well some inner ear stuff got messed up so it's not just tinnitus, it's also high frequency hearing, so loud or harsh sounds make music sound like a broken megaphone, not fun. Yep those days are over. But hey, I'm still slinging HD25-1 pros to work but these days I don't stand out as much, being...

Hi all, checking back in.  Sad news for me this year actually, in June I caught a nasty head virus that resulted in my right middle ear getting toasted.  Yep, sayonara upper frequency hearing, nihao nasty tinnitus.  Did that MRI in the tube to check the head for tumors, all clear, so that's nice...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320708058222   Hi all, that's my eBay auction for my Cardas Neutral Reference RCA Interconnects .5 Meters.  Honestly it's been so long since I've been here that I don't remember if posting auctions are ok, if they aren't let me know and I'll...

Peter Drucker for the win?   http://collateraldamage.wordpress.com/2010/11/16/japan-unveils-anime-series-with-fetishized-school-girls-explaining-the-management-theories-of-peter-drucker/

Hmm!  I'm going to see if I can sneak off to this one!  I have a few goodies to donate to the auction too, like the original Darth Beyers (unfortunately with a bad connection out one earpiece, probably just a wiring thing) and the AKG K81DJs I won from the first international Head-fi meet...
