[measurement extremist]: Define 'small'. Measure with AP555.

Missed the thread, and not sorry it's closed, but one reason that the A man probably hates SBAF is that we refused to engage with him. He could troll hydrogenaudio easily and horribly, but SBAF just said, "No thanks, go away."

I doubt that he forgives easily.

Don't you mean "a pee-pee 555"?

What happened to your name, man? I want the old one back

Sorry man, I kinda really like this one and it's at least consistent elsewhere (and doesn't sound like... liar).

Just kiddin, mate. Love the new name lol

3:25 into this one, minor throat catch/gasp. In hindsight it sticks out like a sore thumb. No change to gear sans a big Win10 update (lol): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFLMHPRoTcA

Or it could just be I actually notice more minutiae when I'm not forcing myself to focus. Happens surprisingly often, especially with stuff I've been listening to for ages. My attention is weird.

My teeth look like Tom Waits

I'm imagining the dentist looking into @Wilson's mouth and a bunch of Tom Waits heads singing back, "Hey, there! EYEBALL KID!"

Butt tattoo of the flag was probably a bad idea, in hindsight. Get it? Hind sight? Yeah.

Hah! There's an idea, cost of dental work is bad enough I'm actually tempted XD

Same exact reaction as DigMe, that... is nightmare fuel, Wilson :))

How could they improve it? I dunno...they're the wizards. Not me :P

Just realised I was unclear. I meant, like what aspects of performance might need fine tuning, haha. Not gotten ears on one yet, but reports of grainy treble might be most worrisome?

Yep, it was just a hair too dry for me, but the somewhat holographic soundstage was something special compared to the rest of their amps.

It's also currently ruled out for me because I'm tied to the balanced outputs on my Gungnir Multibit. But that could change with the new Bifrost...

Grazie! Happy to report I'm not as dumb as I'd suspected, haha.

Congratulations nerdy pickachu!

Thanks, philosophising Cheshire!

Hah, as expected of a good parent :)

Honestly, with the exception of Miyazaki, Hosoda, Shinkai, and a few others who make "classics", every anime I like almost always has to have trope or fanservice-related caveats tacked on, it sucks. Notable example, I love Grimgar but hesitate to talk about it for the creepy sexualisation.

I miss the days of Kino's Journey, Wolf's Rain, Ergo Proxy, Yugo the Negotiator, etc.

@Lyer25 Haha I see, my dad and I talk stuff out like that all the time so maybe that's why I don't find anything weird about it.

@obsiCO haha, depends on the family, yeah. I get along with my parents but seldom delve into topics like this so it came off as a bit hammy, but makes sense to me that it's par for the course for others.

For the record no potatoes were purchased recently and the family needs to exhaust other ingredients first. I am sad because I've been craving taters for weeks now :((

I'm sorry to hear you can't get your carbohydrate fix yet :(

Hah! I mean, there's rice (there's always rice), but rice isn't potatoes. You can quote me on that.

Because you’re not a dad yet.

Trademark that name!

Can't believe nobody in audio used it yet.

@DigMe Hahaha that'll be a while off yet. Unfortunately dad jokes are already very much in-brand for me.

@Thad E Ginathom I know! Only thing I found via Google was a dead blog from 2011, this is such low-hanging fruit I'm surprised no one's picked up on it yet.

Be like Ford Prefect and hitch a ride into the galaxy.

Hah! A vacation to see sights unknown to me sounds lovely, just not doable anytime soon. Definitely on the list though.

Haha, I'll be honest and admit I can't for the life of me remember when I stated using it in that context, but yeah it seems uncommon? Outside of "misappropriation" anyway haha.

Sci Fi has a good track record predicting tech, I can't wait for foldable phones and AI revolts :))

Thought it was more a legal-eeze/gov't term in the US. But you used it perfectly.

Hahahaha I am the last person you'd expect to work in law. But yeah, that'd explain why I seldom see other people use it in that manner— just makes mea all the more curious how I got used to it.

@Lyer25 Who you callin' an anole??

@bengo Well yurbm m?a!jdidik

(I'm pretending to be drunk. Funnily enough I might have actually called someone an "anole" once while wasted haha)

Fond memories watching stuff like this, Airplane!, the Mr. Bean live series, etc. with my granddad.

Kids, don't make the mistake of not visiting often. It'll haunt ya.

+5 food points for @Lyer25

@Cspirou how many food points before I make up for this (see right)? :p

Let's just say you're stats favor foodjitsu but weak against opponents with musicjitsu.

You and me both, I much prefer spinach (thanks Popeye).

I loves me some kale. Awesome superfood.

I tried responding with a superfood pun, failed to come up with one in a timely manner. Dammit.

Haha, sorry @Deep Funk, was just messing around. @Taverius stated the answer I was already expecting, that song is just an absolute sonic mess, much as I love it for working out or when I just wanna rock out.

Well he sure as hell is no Joni Mitchell. And as Star Trek’s Mr. Scott says, “I can’t change the laws of physics, this song is a train wreck “. Or something like that.

More mids helps too.

The business owner was aptly named for that. Mr. Stephen Gore.

So we learnt very little from Camp 731 and the German equivalents? Oh humanity...

@Kunlun pass the pepper.

@Thad E Ginathom new SBAF fashion, golden schlong caps!

@frenchbat I did catch that, and it was an immense source of amusement :))

@Deep Funk people haven't changed very much over the centuries I think. Need to be better.

After a while you just begin understanding references, and even begin making a few yourself. Same with Game of Thrones, haha.

No.

I'm not so isolated as to unaware of The Game of Thrones, but the title is as far as it goes. So won't be referring or understanding.

Really do appreciate the help, thanks! Also, sorry for the trouble. Would be embarrassing if it turned out the headphones were just bollixed, or I was putting consistently uneven pressure on the cups during measurement, haha.

I take full credit for getting Lyer woke

Haha! I'm still very much in B camp I'd say; nothing beats personal experience (provided decent baselines and all that are established) but measurements are excellent for identifying subtler flaws or IDing stuff I might wanna demo.
