Hey guys, spoke with Brent and some of the guys at the A-VCOA meet in Atlanta on Sunday, and I wanted to let you know about the meet this weekend in Nashville. Details are after the link, please hit me up with any questions. Hope to see some of you there . http://www.head-fi.org/t/716783/music-city-meet-nashville-tn-area-may-10-2014-new-thread

So they want people to use two amps with non stepped volume controls? Wow... that is pretty much priceless. Wait no it isn't, it would cost 3k€...

^ from the article Connectivity and Apps The iPhone App makes it incredibly easy to cook with Anova. You simply find the food you’re cooking, adjust the settings if you’d like, and hit start. There’s no need to search for time and temperature settings. It will all be programmed into your phone. We’re going to release an SDK, so that people can develop their own apps to work with Anova. We anticipate people will make nutritional apps, apps that make it easy to share what you’re cooking with others, recipe apps, and time and temperature apps. We want you to be able to input what you’ve got in the fridge and simply touch a button to begin cooking the perfect meal.

^ Haven't heard Blues Travelers in awhile. I'll need to rectify that soon.

Indeed!! I just looked up this amp and I love how it is supposed to be balanced but there is nothing balanced anywhere. Well unless that 3 pin XLR balanced output is the new fancy version of balanced... with shared ground.

I wonder if they would fit my Brompton

The plan with your friend sounds reasonable. With regard to the more technical question, I guess it's a matter of whether you want the short(er) or the long answer. The short(er) answer is that I would estimate that the use of 'audiophile' cables that substantially depart from the design and construction of ordinary commercial-grade designs would generally correlate with reduced (rather than improved) performance if any change in system dynamics were observed at all. However, equipment destined for working primarily within audio-band frequencies, at least those with well-designed power supplies, should generally be able to handle less than ideal conditions with regard to the design of your power interconnect. So, you may be able to use the device pictured without degrading the performance of your equipment to a degree that would be noticed in ordinary use cases. As for the longer answer, I'm not sure I feel like writing it. However, probably the most germane aspect of that to note would be that the "weakest link" aphorism is apt to mislead intuition and mischaracterize the dynamics of systems, so I don't recommend it when thinking about how to improve the performance of one's audio equipment.
