Mine was wrapped to a cardboard. Typical amazon jp packaging.

Oh boy, I just read about the whole volume cap thing in Europe. I have a WM1A from amazon UK being delivered today, but don't wanna mess with it. Anyone want it for the price I paid for?  

  Curious, how long did it take to get the replacement from Onkyo?

I got my DP-X1 in November and jacks are not loose. I violently moved my 3.5mm jack back and forth to see if it wobbles or becomes loose, but it remained firm.

So gramophone is finally shipping my focal elear, and they said they are throwing in a free gift as well. 

I ordered the focal elear from gramophone just before Christmas and it's still unfulfilled according to their site with no update at all. I paid with paypal so they got the money already. Seems very shady..

I saw they offered it for the current price minus 5000yen discount about a week ago.. for a crazy total of $330 at the time. This happened only after I paid about $100 more. 

Anyone watching amagami? Can't believe they actually turned this #%#$ game into anime.

I think there is a special digested copy of cowboy bebop with only the essential episodes. I believe it was a limited edition JP dvd release with added scenes.

Break Blade vol. 2 is out. To aru majutsu no index season 2 coming up. Can't wait.

Quote: You would have to ask for a discount or find a used pair.

Quote: I've had the MK1/MK2 as well as the t200a many years back and all I can tell you is that you need to try other speakers. They aren't even close.

It revealed a lot of things I didn't know.The story is a lot more complicated than I thought(nagi and samii's history, how samii came to rikuo's, and the things happened before that). You'd have to watch it to understand. The ending left me kind of confused.

I've finished every movie I wanted to watch before the summer's over. :) Watch them if you haven't.   Tales of Vesperia: First Strike Break Blade(Broken Blade) Movie 1 Higashi no Eden(Eden of east) Movie 2: Paradise Lost Eve no Jikan Gekijouban Movie  

So are you into 2.0 now? If yes, look for a pair of NHT M-00's. They are awesome little speakers and nothing short compared to the Adams, imho.

No prob. Studio monitors are usually sold as single rather than a pair.

Because you're paying $280 for a single speaker compared to $500 for a pair...

A. Gallo Diva for $231/pair. Do want. I wish I lived in NY. :o

DDVX: you could get a pair of A5's for $500 from MF. The A5X are more expensive because they are newer. You would need some quality IC cables for these.

A brand new pair of Pro 750 for $150? Where?

Quote: Getting a volume knob isn't wasre of money if your DAC doesn't have pre-amp function.. I had to use a pre amp for my Dyn MC15's to finally get the sound qualified for my ears.

Adam A5 or Quad 11L/12L active(a little over $600 for a used pair for the 12L's) or NHT M-00.

Did you get yours for free?

I'm not sure if I can recommend the focal at that price even though the MSRP is $600 iirc. All I can tell is that these are some of the best 2.1 PC speakers I've tried along with the Klipsch ifi. No, I have not tried the T3, but looking at it reminds me of one of those Logitech multimedia...
