  1. I like how they look with no grill - just one slab of beautiful veneer. But with the sides prettied up, etc. I've always wanted a pair of these.
  2. I can't find it now but Jon went on a big rant on his website (and/or was it Myspace?). It appears deleted now. But a chunk of it is reposted here. It made me sad. He's been posting more positively of late and the fact that it seems he deleted his rant leads me to believe either it was settled a bit or he just tried to be the better man about it. ?? It sounds like he's recovering (hopefully). I understand he was clinically dead for a few. You may have to copy/paste for some reason....... http://idolator.com/5054159/jon-anderson-says-no-to-yes-new-lead-singer
  3. I remember how happy he was when members hooked him up with that Scott. It was a big deal.
  4. I'm so sorry to hear this. One time I accidentally called him "Old Huckster". He laid into me. It was an accident. I like to think he really wasn't offended, just wanted an excuse to lay into me cuz it amused him. God Speed OB
  5. King Crimson - Park West - Chicago. Belew, Fripp, Tony Levin, Pat Mastelotto, Gavin Harrison (Porcupine Tree). Yes, 2 drummers. I will not forget this one. Ever.
  6. Did you figure it out or not? They should sound amazing to you. What have you been listening to before them. Surely something's wrong and it could be a small thing. Um - but if you do decide to sell... give me a holler, you never know... LOL
  7. 2005 Klipschorns in the Chicagoland area? What did I miss? Tell me they weren't on Craigs for $1500 or something?!!!
  8. I'd be all over that also. In the best scenario, It would be nice if existing pairs could be tweaked for it. I'm also concerned about how the current plug will fit into the 3g iPhone that doesn't have the recessed hole.
  9. Now that the new iPhone launching 7/11 will no longer have a recessed headphone jack - how will my Images's plug sit on it? Will it now stick up? I guess we don't yet know till the phone is in people's hands or hear more details from WWDC - but any speculation?
  10. I kinda feel how I did when I bought an iPhone at $600 and Apple reduced the price by $400 a month later? I hope the bass is 'significantly' better on the coppers than the silvers.
  11. Thank you. I'm going to try hard to get down there but it's going to be very tricky.
  12. Just got done reading this thread. Wow. (special wow for the 3oz of gold)
  13. Absolutely. I hear that overlap at that particular area. It's been a bad thing for me - big time. And I'm interested in networks that don't overlap also. The concept of overlap doesn't even sound good on paper to me let alone to my ears. I 1,000% prefer AK-3 to AA. And yes, even at low volumes. I fully believe that people who have had issues with harshness, etc. are hearing what I hear and are perhaps sensitive to it and no move to tubes or a great amp can fix that. I feel very passionately about this issue. LOL
  14. Darn - I missed this thread. Loud/Clear - Which way did you go with this? Regarding the k55 M vs. V - The charts clearly show the M dipping sooner than the V's. I feel this is a big deal. Also, I'm fully convinced the type of network important to that big difference. I hear it. Blatantly.
  15. Hmm... this is somewhat disturbing. Better highs than my more expensive Image copper I just bought? I don't like the concept. But the bass isn't as good? Is the bass difference super-subtle or more dramatic to where one would instantly hear a big difference?
  16. Amy - You heard they have clearer highs? Than the copper Image? Or... ??? What would these compare to more?
  17. OK - Compared the Image to the Shure e4c. The Shures suck. No bass. No comparison. Instantly noticeable. Yes I had a great seal. Husband, who's been using the Shures almost every day referred to the e4c as "like AM radio" compared to the Image. He also liked the comfort of the Image of course. I started to delve into the non-bass territory but felt "why bother?". Plus I had to get the Shures out of my ears. I told him "you're going to be stealing the Klipsch from me aren't you", he said "probably". I REALLY want to hear the Custom 3's now. We'll likely get those or another Image so we can each have our own pair and sell all these other non-Klipsch laying around here which I now know just plain suck.
  18. So.... Will this be captured somehow? Even if only audio? I'm very late to all this and I don't think I can make it Friday night or even if I could, I think it's closed.
  19. I want to go but it'll be REALLY tricky for me to pull it off. My husband is going to Return to Forever that Friday and I may have tickets as well though I think I passed on that in favor of King Crimson? Friday sounds interesting though. Maybe I could get a ride with someone and hubby can come Saturday. But I'm trying to find the full schedule for the weekend and for now am only finding bits/pieces.
  20. I found this works well. No tangles/knots. http://lifehacker.com/software/life-hacks/keep-headphone-wires-from-getting-tangled-152499.php
  21. I see the Image cord is shorter than these Shure E3c (which I can't try cuz husband has the fugly adaptor). I was wondering though.... it would be nice to be able to OPTIONALLY have the ear wire. I wonder if one (like on the Customs) could be made where one could insert the tail of the Image into a 'clip' at the bottom of the wire much like one inserts a mic in a mic stand? Then maybe 2 little clips on the wire to clip the cord to. Hmm... let me think. I'm trying to figure out a way to get the cord over my ear 'somehow' securely. Out of the way when needed.
  22. I think they sound pretty darned good though I've not much to compare to. Husband is at the Indy 500 with his Shure EC4's. There's a Shure EC3 laying around here but I can't find them. All I have here are Sony's and they're freekishly horrid. Tonight or tomorrow I'll be able to compare to the Shures. I bought the Image because I can't stand anything in my ears. Everything hurts, though I admit to never playing around with eartips much. The Image are pretty comfy! I also bought the Image because I know I would have little patience for installing/removing the Customs and wanted something lightweight/easy peasy for gardening, etc. I tried all the tips many times over last night and still am a bit unsure. I first thought the double-flange made the most sense visually but they are squishier to me. Especially at the tip. Right now it looks like the small singles are for me. Or a wash between small & med? It's going to take me months to figure it out. Wish I had the Custom-3's here to compare! Might get those for my hubby and ditch all the others laying around here. Unfortunately, it's already looking like he's going to steal my Image. Yeah, will probably need those Custom-3's in da house. Few things..... The cord. Wish it was shorter for 'me' and iPhone. Not sure what to do with all this extra cord. I would also die and go to heaven if the cord had the cool little iPhone 'thingy' (button & mic) so I can answer calls, pause, skip tracks. IF that ever becomes available..... would it be ridiculous to hope either I could send it in for a cord swap? I guess I'd just have to sell & rebuy probably. Listening to Porcupine Tree's 'Fear of a Blank Planet' - 'My Ashes'..... Sounds fantastic. Gorgeous song/great album.
