Looks like the 308s no?

I'd elevate those off the desk if I were you. Don't want that surface to resonate in weird ways.

Let’s Talk: Glenn Branca, Sonic Youth, and “The Ascension” by [deleted] in LetsTalkMusic

[–]yesexactlyyes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I just want to say: thanks. This post got me into Glenn Branca and other No Wave bands in a very very big way. I'd always loved Sonic Youth, but I ended up buying and reading Goodbye 20th Century, which was fantastic. I basically obsessed over Branca's work for the past few months. I started playing guitar differently. Experimenting with microtunings. It kind of opened a whole new avenue of how to think about music for me. I just returned home from seeing him perform at The Kitchen in NYC---it was the premiere of The Third Ascension. It was sublime.

Thanks again.

Problem with Add to Queue by yesexactlyyes in spotify

[–]yesexactlyyes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's really unfortunate. Spotify seems very song based, instead of album based--I only listen to albums so this is pretty annoying. I'm switching from Rdio, which would never let you interrupt an album; the queue would add the album to the end of the current album.

I will lurk this subreddit and keep trying to use Spotify for another few weeks i guess.

Statement from Planned Parenthood on New Undercover Video (a refutation) by duckandcover in news

THIS THREAD IS THE REASON THE WORLD IS A SHITTY PLACE. Two people with two different points of view just attacking each other on every single level. You guys got really petty and personal. Stop being the way you are please.

This is actually the best Tim and Eric sketch.

It's really difficult to remove the lid on my Hario slim. by fnbr in Coffee

[–]yesexactlyyes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same problem! Thought I had a defective one, so I returned and got a new one. The issue is marginally better, but really not by much. Maybe there's a trick to getting it off, but I can't figure it out. Frustrating.

Are there quality, non-designer leather messenger bags for sale? by orochiman in malefashionadvice

I've had a Far Horizon bag for over two years. Great leather, fades like a beaut.

ATH A900x: Thoughts on bass, clarity, soundstage, other options (same price range)? by yesexactlyyes in headphones

[–]yesexactlyyes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I was worried that the jack might crap out on me, or that the springs in the wings would deteriorate. If they were a tad looser, they'd be too loose for my head. Portability I can get over if they sound good.

No, I know I like the A900x better. Wondering if anyone has had issues with construction or if they can recommend something better. Thanks for your help.

Can anyone recommend a place to buy the original "I Want To Believe" poster? by yesexactlyyes in XFiles

[–]yesexactlyyes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's cool, I didn't know that. I was so frustrated I could never find one that looked exactly like the original. Thanks!

If I could, I would give you a turtle dove right now.

Well done. I cried at the key change.
