WatchSir Ken Robinson: Bring on the learning revolution! | Video on TED.com
This is…so true. Our education system is in desperate need of a complete and total overhaul down to its very foundations in order to better prepare our children for the world they face tomorrow.

This is awesome. More stadiums need to implement this.
I especially like how indifferent the refs are to the fight.

My Current Listening Setups
Here’s my setup for at home listening, consisting of the Fiio E9 I was sent for review, a Fiio E7, which serves as a DAC and my Playstation 1 operating as a CD player or my laptop, using the Fiio E7 as a USB DAC and E9 as an amplifier.
Here’s my transportable rig, consisting of an Asus EEE 1005PE Netbook, a Fiio E7 portable headphone amplifier/USB DAC and my Audio Technica...

So...I Have a Tube Amplifier Now...
Doesn’t she look pretty? I call her “Ampy”. :D
Okay…I’m totally lying about the name…
Anyway, as you all may know, I’ve become something of an audiophile as of late (It’s all Head-Fi’s fault, I swear!) and what audiophile worth his salt doesn’t have a tube amplifier? Well, the hundreds, even thousands of dollars it costs to get a...

Good cosplay is somewhat hard to find these days but this is definitely a step in the right direction.

Xbox Live Price Increase Coming November 1 →
Such a load of crap. You’d think Microsoft would be lowering the price of Live these days but, apparently, you’d be thinking wrong.
Way to go Microsoft. Thanks for making the Playstation Network look that much more appealing.

Finally...After Three and a Half Years...I Have a...
For the past three and a half years, I’ve been using the same phone…a phone that was about two years past its prime when I got it. A phone that has been a constant annoyance to me. A phone that I hated the day it was forced upon me by my father three and a half years ago instead of allowing me to pay him the necessary amount for a phone that I really wanted (which, at the time. was the...

My Dream Garage: Part II
I just realized that I didn’t include a single American car in my post and that just won’t do. Sacrilege I say. So, now I must make amends with an All-American dream garage.

2. Dodge Viper ACR - The Brutish Track Monster
3. 1969 Dodge Charger - The Throwback
4. Cadillac CTS-V - The Caddy With the Heart of a ‘Vette

New Arrivals
When the mail came today, I found a couple of interesting things waiting for me on my doorstep.
HiFiMan RE-ZERO
The HiFiMan RE-ZERO limited edition IEMs. I was sent a pair of these for the purposes of review (thanks to Fang at Head-Direct!) and I’ve been eagerly anticipating their arrival.
I’ve given them an initial listen and I have to say that I’m quite pleased with what...

Sign Here If You Think Apple Should Give Free... →
As I said on my comment for the article, I don’t even own an iPhone but I support this. There’s no reason for a company to engineer a product with an obvious defect and then charge you for an accessory that will remedy it.

This is an article/rant I wrote about iOS 4’s performance on my iPod Touch 2G. Needless to say, I’m not pleased.

Ordered some Op-Amps
Yep, I’m finally ready to start experimenting with different op-amps in my CMoy to see how the signature changes and whether or not I’ll prefer different op-amps to my current OPA2227. They should be here sometime next week or the week after.

Playstation 1: Audiophile Quality CD Player?
Apparently, the Playstation One is not only a great classic gaming console but is also an audiophile quality CD player.
Naturally, I’m a bit skeptical of this so I decided to take my old PS1 out, dust it off and give it a listen. I connected the RCA cables from the AV Multi Out to an RCA to 3.5mm headphone jack converter and plugged it into my CMoy amp, plugged in my RE0s and gave it a...

First Post on Tumblr Blog
I’m not entirely sure why I created this blog or what I’ll be doing with it but…here it is and this is the first post on the blog without a purpose.
Perhaps I’ll use this for the various non-sequiturs that pop up throughout my life that I feel are worth writing about but not on The Mind of Game or Musical Musings. Yeah, I think that’s a good application for this...
