Currently the highest bid is around 72K and i was considering it, but most likely not.

I should buy them, hook them up to a JVC HTiB receiver, rock all hair metal all the time, and post pics of that hot mess all over the internets, just to bum Flo out. :cornut: Just like Steve Wynn buying a Picasso and putting his elbow through it.

I think that HTIB might catch on fire.

(ok, it's all hooked up. Turn it on. Click, sizzle.... What's that sound? You smell something?)

Florian

Hehe, the JVC would not even make a noise on these. All you get is a burning smell ;-)
Well they are staying here, but its interesting to see how much interest was in these speakers. I got a new job developing porn sites and they pay enough for me to get all the dedicated powerlines and Tact amps. ;-)

Please tell me it's not the balloon fetish one. I just don't get that one. I understand most fetishes -- people craving for a different experience. But balloons?

Or the girls in clown makeup. WTFO?

It may be the one where, one guy e**s another man's d***cation, and then French.

It's called, "Got milk?"

Guys, let's keep it PG-13 please.

I've been keeping the typing at PG-13. But the images in my mind are, well.... not.:idea:

ew, dirty thought there, excuse me while I go blast it out of my head with some 'Zepplin...

Hi Flo! I'm glad you're keeping them. They have a good home just where they are.
When you say developing do you mean writing code or more on the organizing and deciding look and feel side. Just curious as I'm sure you could do either.:cool:

Dusty Chalk
01-19-2007, 11:33 PM
Uh, no, that previous post does not qualify as PG-13 "in typing". Just because you don't use four-letter words doesn't mean you're not still explicitly describing adult situations.

Well i "sort" the lot in the beginning. But my main job is to write the code for the credit card payments, video and pics database etc... :-)

Amazing, these pr0n guys pay twice the amound i got in my reglar job, i can work infront of my Grands and they gave me 6K to spend on new computer hardware. So my posts during the next week will come from 1 of the 4 21" widescreen TFT's LOL

Just think, SVI knows how to do that stuff too. If he ever gets a job he'll be asking if B&W is better than Soundlabs. Should he use a big panel for a center channel? But it blocks the 80" plasma TV.:idea:

Maybe I should investigate the porn area for jobs. I had no idea they payed that well. I have no moral problem working for that kind of business.:ihih:

if, and only if he ever manages to get a job,

and only if that job is the same job as flo's job, then he'll be asking that :cornut:


@flo,
when you get your new stuff,

Post pics!:ihih:

Well next week my parts will come.

Its gonna be the new Intel Quad Core, 4gigs of Corsair DDR2-800 Memory, 4x 10K Raptor 74gig drives in Raid0, 1TB External Storage. 1 Blueray Burner, 1 DVD Burner, 2x nVidia 768MB GeForce 8800GTX in SLI mode, 4x 20" 16:10 Widescreens and other toys.

Should a be a cute machiene. It will run the SQL database servers, apache webserver, altough the movies will land on a root server with a dedicated 1gig line in Munich.

I plan to get my new amps (Tact 2150's) in Febuary and the dedicated powerlines in April. So things are finally moving.

:-)

Now that's thinking outside the envelope. Need more money for upkeep and maintenance? Ye ask and ye shall receive..although that may not be the most appropriate phrasing for the situation.
It sounds like you're going to have one serious Swordfish-style hot rod computer setup in the same room with a world class sound system. Not a bad gig. Nice work.

Good to have you lurking about again lately.

intel?
i'd use amd for such a beast,
nice hdd's you chose, didn't they make bigger version of it yet?

any other nice toys like a nice case or so? personally i use a nzxt lexa, and i can't complain, they also make very nice solid aluminium cases...

it will be a cute machine though, super pc and super system, good match...

have fun with the new job!

for coding? And two 8800GTX cards? Why on earth?

I guess the quad core makes sense if you're going to write code that can take advantage of that.

well the video cards make sense, but most of what I've read said the quad cores don't gain much... which I'm hoping is wrong and they come down in price in 6 or so months when I want to build a new computer :)

You shoulda gotten the Zalman case that is just a mass of fins -- link (http://www.frozencpu.com/products/1199/cas-208/Zalman_TNN500AF_Noise_Free_Mid_Tower_Case_w_400W_F anless_PSU.html).

seems like a common hobby here...
what games do you play most?

i'd buy that one, only the price tag makes me not buying it :cornut:


ooh, yeah, flo, which monitors (not monitor speakers, monitor = ment as screen here) are you going to buy?

The computer cpu will be cooled with a phase change cooler and the graphics cards and chipsets with water. No need for any passive thingys ;-)

I play a ton of Doom3, Quake II and III, Rise of Nations, Diablo 2, World of Warcraft and others. :-) I will 3 more Benq 202w screens to make 4 in total.

do you also play gta? or wolfenstein enemy territory?

question: are you going to use your grands for the pc audio, or are you going to use a pc speaker system?

Hehe, na the Grand is my primary system. It will only play 2 channel and nothing else. I play RTCW and GTA. I was in PC Magazine 2 years ago with my phase changed cooled PC. Man the good ole times ;-)

this might sound stupid, but what exactly is a "phase changed cooled pc"??

then, what are you going to use for the pc as soundsystem?
I use a cambridge soundworks megaworks thx 550, and I'm happy, for games and movies on the pc that is, no music is being played on them, only my Advents get that privilege...

I use Danfoss compressors with R404 gas to cool my cpu. Its basically freezing your CPU below the freezing point. I use normal headphones on the computer. I dont listen to music on a computer.
