Sam Tellig's "ears"

Many issues back in Stereophile, Sam Tellig talked about a device he wore over his ears which gave greater focus to the sound and increased his listening enjoyment. I cannot find the reference and wish to know what was the name of the product he liked so much and if possible, where to purchase it. I make this request due to the decline in my high frequency hearing ability. When I cup my hands over my ears, I hear better (also while watching tv) and I believe this audio device would be of benefit for me.

DUP is coming back in a few days or so...

A new story by Roddy Doyle. 'Nuff said—except that the "f-bomb" is dropped in the second graf. Of course, I already said it's by Roddy Doyle.

Mad Men

I've been fascinated by AMC's summer series <I>Mad Men</I>. Its depiction of 1960 America is revelatory&mdash;even though I was alive then, if only eight. And, as Ellen Feldman observes, it's not just the details that make it so powerful, it's a throwback in terms of character development and, dare I say it, pacing. Although AMC has commercials, it doesn't observe the same rhythm other channels do, so some scenes develop for 11 or 12 minutes before a break.
