| Top 5 Hamburgers Hit Sunin Lebanese Cafe again last night for dinner. Corner of Westwood Blvd & Santa Monica. Great value buy dinner. Terrfic rice pilaf, juicy marinated kabobs, creamy hommos, and the Almaza Lebanese beer really is good. Tasty dinner for two w... | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers Javier's in Laguna has one of the best grilled/sauteed Calamari steaks I have ever had. Always perfectly tender and juicey, never overcooked and rubbery. | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers I've yet to make it to Oinkster, but have heard nothing but good things about it. Kinda a haul from the end of the 110 fwy for a burger, though. | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat Hey, any idea how the new upgrades differ from a few years ago? Mine has the complete "Data II" updates w/ Black gates | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers 04-04-10: Magnumpi205"Hot buns and juicy burgers" Did you get her name? | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat 04-04-10: LushTwo things I've noticed but it's early. Gain of this DAC is WAAAY up in comparison to other DAC's and CD drives I've used. If I'm not mistaken, the output on Bitstreams is 4V as compared to the standard 2V on most others. At least, t... | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers 03-16-10: AzaudMe too on the Lebanese food! There used to be a place on Westwood that had great chow. Just hit Sunnin Lebanese Cafe on Westwood Blvd & Santa Monica last week. Food was and great and it was cheap/affordable. Meat kabobs were ten... | |
| Are linear tracking arms better than pivoted arms? 03-18-10: DertonarmDear Darkmoebius, in teh early 1930ies you could order from H.H.Scott a "Quaranta". If you did so - and included all possible features including your own recording device with cutting lathe... - it would have cost you US$5000+ i... | |
| Are linear tracking arms better than pivoted arms? 03-18-10: DertonarmDarkmoebius - and high-end went back all the way to the 1920/30ies and today you have 18W SE-Amplifiers (Lamm, WAVAC etc.) and super expensive full-range drivers and speakers which usually do outperform a Linkwitz-filtered 4 way... | |
| Are linear tracking arms better than pivoted arms? 03-17-10: DertonarmDarkmoebius, sorry to say in this context, that Syntax is right. While I do have respect for the brands you listed, the only "field" where the "better" succeeded for several millenia was ( and today it is beginning to change eve... | |
| Are linear tracking arms better than pivoted arms? 03-17-10: SyntaxNo audio product has ever succeeded because it was better, only because it was cheaper, smaller, or easier to use. Wilson Audio would beg to differ. Add to that Soundlab, Magneplanar, Krell, Pass Labs, Magico, Gryphon, etc. etc. | |
| Are linear tracking arms better than pivoted arms? 03-16-10: SamujohnAgreed. I also venture that tubes are prized by many because they like their gentle, well known, distortions. Just wait until Atmasphere gets a load of that line! | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers I meant "throne" instead of "thrown", that misspelling makes a bad distasteful even more revolting. | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers 03-15-10: Azaudbut if you ask for "extra chili BOWL-STYLE", they turn the burger that already has enough chili in it to render a small nation defenseless on it's side, and ladle a HEAP of that greasy heaven into the "bowl", and plunge a spork into... | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers 03-15-10: BongofuryByegolly: I like the cheese and grilled onion residue off the wrapper of a double double. :) Bongo, in college(USC), on our tri-weekly late night Tommy's-Rampart double chili cheese burger runs, we used to call that "wiping the ... |
