Well, it's been almost four years since I purchased my W1000X.  They prompted me to put my other AT woodies away for safekeeping, and have consequently seen a lot of use.  Just recently they developed a problem.    The right channel was cutting in and out, related to movement.  I isolated the...

I've used a diluted bleach soak to clean a Yixing pot that was allowed to get moldy.  Seems to be the accepted practice to clean out funky/old pots, at least by people who are willing to risk it all to maybe make a pot usable again.  I'd never use it for daily cleaning, since it takes a lot of...

Quote: Sweet.  I had a tea blog for a few years (free tea! a lot of it) but I actually hate recommending tea to people, because my tastes have changed.  When I first got into loose leaf, even though I had been drinking bagged green and oolong, for some reason I figured the only tea that...

Staal, I'm not sure if UK shops help you out, but both Canton Tea Co and Jing Tea are really great.  Tea Spring is also quite good, an easy place to start with a wide selection and $4 worldwide shipping.  Jing Tea Shop (different from Jing Tea) in China is also good, but kind of more...

I got a 15-year-old Dong Ding last week.  Pretty good.  I'm also enjoying a spinachy Honorable Mention Baozhong (I love savory vegetable flavors in green oolong) and a Taiwan Wuyi (processed as a Wuyi), an interesting slant on the traditional, mainland varietals.  It's weird to taste both Wuyi...

A HF MC server?  I gotta get playing this again.  

Newfangled old fart stopping by.  I haven't been here in so long that my one of my interests still reads "TV on DVD."  You youngguns probably don't even know what those are.  By so long I mean a year.

Proaudiomart is indeed legit.  They take offers, and claim to be an authorized dealer, for what that's worth.

Agricola, agricolae, agricolarum, agricolis, agricolas.  We used to call my high school Latin teacher puer. 

  Quote:   Yeah, I feel you.  The main problem with asking for input beforehand is that people aren't generally aware of what they like/need until it's gone.  I never would have said, "Hey, keep the page navigation below each thread!"  Mainly because I never would have expected not to...

Quote: I'm not a huge fan of the new platform (much of it stinks), but I think most of us would agree Jude has every right to do whatever he wants with Head-Fi.  The Internet rewards foresight, and he had it.  My understanding is that he put together an alternate forum when HeadWize was...

  Quote: Ah ha, that explains it.  Those numbers look much better.

I have yet to see a dating/gambling ad.  Perhaps they aren't targeting my area.

Quote: I've been very curious about this as well.  Views in general seem to be at a decent level at the moment, but hits must be down overall.  Headphone-related hits, that is.  The forum change is generating its own unique traffic.   Quote: No kidding.  I imagine it's the worst...

  Quote:   Yeah, from what I can tell, Huddler isn't just another forum platform.  I've never seen a representative from vBulletin become a member of a forum running their software, anyway.  Huddler definitely seems like a partner of sorts, based on how they bill themselves, and the...
