Yes indeedy... we're already closing in on the first of this year's Dallas meets:      Mark your calendars (again, again, again)!   Sunday, June 1st, 2014 - 10am to 7pm   Location is Preston Tower Condominiums at 6211 W Northwest Highway. It's the 29-story curved high-rise building...

Back in 2004, a French audiophile website link-stole one of my images from a MG Head review on my personal website. Well... my review page is long gone... but not before I replaced their linked image. With... um... this:   Warning: This is extremely puerile and stupid, but I still get a laugh...

  We brought the gear. We spun the vinyl. We ate hotter than hell salsa... and we had a good time.    Bring on the impressions! :)

Is it already time for Round 2 in 2013? It sure is, pardner!   Sunday, September 29th, 2013 - "Big Tex Wears Headphones Too" - 10am to 7pm   Location is Preston Tower Condominiums at 6211 W Northwest Highway. It's the 29-story curved high-rise building w/bird sculpture fountain in front...

Anyone else a pinball freak? Well I freakin' love it. Lots of festivals each year such as California Extreme, Texas Pinball Festival, and PAPA in Pittsburgh. If I'm nearby, you can bet I'll be queuing up for an afternoon.   Addams Family is still my #1. It has a delightful balance of...

Greetings Head-Fi'ers! We had two successful Dallas meets in 2012, so it's time to kick off the first for 2013 before it gets too hot...   Sunday, June 9th, 2013 - The "Not Quite In The Oven Yet" meetup - 10am to 7pm   Location is Preston Tower Condominiums at 6211 W Northwest Highway...

Fellow CSP and Taboo owners... here's the deal: Jazzerdave and I own a LOT of rectifier tubes and would like to share the wealth. Here's what I propose: I'll box up a collection of rectifier tubes and designate it as the official "Team Decware Six Pack" (TDSP). Here are the conditions...

Hello team Head-Fi... I mistakenly put a friend's name (Ahmet) in the sale/trade feedback for a recent transaction with fortress34. Would it be possible to change it to his user name... or remove the reference entirely?

Hello again can fans! As promised, it's time to roll out the plans for Head-Fi "Deux in 2012" in Dallas, TX. Mark your calendars for Sunday, October 14th from 11am to 6:30pm.   The meetup will again be held in a reserved community room near Northwest Highway and Preston Road in Dallas...

I can't tell what amp/headphones he's using, but clearly, Doug Pitt needs us!    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=5_booK7IRyM

Howdy can fans! The Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex is heating up and it is time for a contingency plan. I propose a Head-Fi mini-meet on Sunday, June 24th from 11am to 6pm. Should have room for about 12-15 people.   The meetup will be held in a reserved community room near Northwest Highway and...

Yeah, no real point here. Change is constant and inevitable and a part of this hobby as much as anything. Que sera sera.   BTW, cheers all. Nice to be back. Rockin' it this time with a Grado SR225/Mapletree setup. 

Got Rhapsody? Fire up Free The Bees and play the tracks "Chicken Payback", "These Are The Ghosts", and "I Love You". It is hard to believe these tracks are NOT at least 40 years old. Lately I've been on a retro 60's kick, trying to unearth all the (largely underplayed) classics I've never...

This question may be better suited for the HGTV forums, but here goes... I have a patio. It has a flat concrete floor. It is grey. It is boring. Since the area will soon be enclosed with screens and doors, this would be a good time to do the floors. The question is... what?

Love - Forever Changes This album is incredible. Deep lyrics, consistent vision, sublime melodies. I can't believe it slipped between the cracks of my musical consciousness. In my opinion, it ranks right up there with Pet Sounds, SMiLE, Sgt. Pepper's, and contemporary masterpieces such as...

http://media.cars.ign.com/articles/6...76/vids_1.html I wonder who gets to un-pimp your headphones? AKG? Senn? Grado? Nah, don't answer that you troublemakers.

The time has come to revise my MG Head OTL & tuberolling webpage. Not because the amp has fallen out of favor with me, no no. Far from it. Rather, I've recently had some weird experiences with tubes and the results are baffling. In short... my current production tubes sound VERY GOOD. I...

With all due respect to Sid Meier (which would be a friggin' boatload), I can't get into Civilization IV after having played Rome: Total War. CIV IV is a micromanagers dream, but a military tactician's nightmare. The simplistic combat system is little more than playing "war" with a deck of...

It seems that ever since I picked up the game Rome: Total War, I've developed an obsession with military conquests in the ancient world. This has been fueled by a number of great PBS shows that have come out recently such as Hannibal Vs. Rome and a slew of Nova specials where everything from...

Dude. The same 46" Samsung DLP HDTV I bought in May is now $800 less! That's a whopping 33% price drop. TVAuthority reflects the new pricing, Best Buy less so. Argh! I've really enjoyed the last eight months of HDTV, but I probably would have waited had I known it would drop this much.

Anyone? Got Israel Kamakawiwo'ole and Martin Pahinui... any others? I might be throwing a luau & want some fun party music that isn't TOO over the top. If anybody says Martin Denny, I'm gonna brain 'em with a tiki torch.

I pulled the trigger at Best Buy a couple of weeks ago, but didn't shoot anyone. Instead, I shot my wallet. I bought a Samsung HLR4667W DLP HDTV, and man is it SWEET. I've never seen anything look this good. Attack of the Clones DVD is a better experience at home than the local DLP cinema...

Stevia, the sweetest substance on earth Pictured above is Stevia Canada sampler package #R1003 (not including the NOW brand stevia on the far left). Strangely, I received two 30ml bottles of the liquid extract instead of one 10ml bottle. The additional amount was probably included as a bonus...
