Uhhhh... Anmies! Samurai Champloo, Wolf's Rain, and Cowboy Bebop! The other tapes have anime movies from the SciFi Channel when they used to air them(Those were the days, now SciFi just shows crap for the most part

), and miscellaneous other clips and stuff. Particularly Conan O' Brien.

That's not where the headphone stand goes

If you see the ultrawide panoramic I posted on the Home Theater Rig thread, the stand sits comfortably on my left tower speaker. I just had to get everything in a good spot for the pic.

They are not really vintage, They are the newer version.

Well, I finally cleaned out my office. After which I decided to replace the crappy wall outlet that my gear has been plugged into... and was forced to move my rack. I took this opportunity to change the levels on the rack to better accomodate everything. This was last night... I slept well.

Tonight I took it a little easier, though I did find time to put the new velour earpads on my K340's. Listening to a little Nick Drake on them right now and it sounds amazing. The velour is nice and comfy too.

I also am using my new balanced IC's that Snowy sent along with the E5 Sig as 'extension cables' for my K340's. Should help burn them in and gives me a little more freedom.

The results:

Just a glass ball with bubbles in it... the Wife bought it a while back. Thought it matched the displays of the E5 and Squeezebox and the LED on the UPC well... and it keeps the Lavry in place.

Ah, I see. I was wondering if it was some sort of new fangled vibration dampening device.

Reading about you rearranging your rack reminds me that I really need should get around to removing one of my shelves from my rack so I can space the shelves better. Maybe tomorrow...maybe.
