I have now been an active Head-fi member for about fourteen months and have and am still enjoying the forum greatly. But we all have peeves. Probably my greatest peeve with this forum is what I call the "absoluteness" of some members. They generally use science as the absolute definer of all...

It is 12.33 am in Melbourne, Australia December 25th, 2007. Merry Christmas to all from us in Oz. cheers Simon

In this! It is an off-road racing buggy with 400 hp, 4 litre, competition Lexus V8. Top speed about 160 kmh, not that I got anywhere near that! A very light vehicle and a very quick vehicle. Alot of fun to drive. Getting to drive this for about an hour yesterday was a 50th birthday present...

I went to the Grado dealer in Melbourne today to 1) see if Grado/Alessandro's would fit my big noggin and 2) Actually have a listen! So I listened to a variety of music with the SR 325i via a Counterpoint (I believe it was) headamp, from a Cary CD306 (mind boggling quality). Then he...

Does anybody else find F1 racing boring? I live in Melbourne and can in fact hear the engines during the race from home. I have actually been to the race twice and found that standing or sitting behind a safety fence watching cars go past that quickly you only actually see them for what seems...
