  • Simaudio Mind 180, Part 13

    Remember the sign which read:

    If it's yellow, it's mellow,
    So just let it sit
    If it's brown, flush it down,
    Cuz it looks like shit

    Well, I suspect it was Nora, who added:

    If it's red, it's dead,
    Flush? Please go ahead!

    When I reviewed the Simaudio Evolution I-7, P-8, and 750D, the North American units only came with a red display. That red color was/is an eyesore, compared to the blue-colored display found on foreign units.

    Well, the Mind 180 does not have a display. It has one bright blue circular LED, which flashes when the unit is initializing or trying to sync. The photo above does not accurately depict just how bright that blue LED really is. If you find this LED blinding, you should cover it.

    In our Friday evening meetings in the dorm's corner lounge, one girl said that, statistically, 1 of 4 females of childbearing age (as college kids, we were all qualified as such) should be on her period.

    A dark-haired goth-looking girl stood up, and without smiling, said that she didn't mind being on her period. #1, she wasn't pregnant. And #2, it gave her an excuse to be "left the fuck alone." Mind over matter.

    Our dorm's bathrooms were disgusting, not because girls left it a bloodbath, but because everyone (all genders) was a slob.

    Not a bloodbath, the only red light to be found on a functioning Mind 180 is the rear-panel's unoccupied Tos-Link jack.
