He has a new record out too.

These are the boards; I had seeed run 10 of them. Guess I'll have to build one up and see if it works... The board is a bit larger at 116 x 107mm, so new build only. Mounting holes are inset 5mm (x,y).

Kiss, vinyl of course...

Mark Knopfler – Shangri-La

Nice and sunny here again after a few cloudy days, rare here, so time to take the can-am out.

I'm looking forward to picking up more Dire Straits SACDs as well (Making Movies and Love Over Gold), but they're a bit pricey. This one has been in my cart for a while – it was great to come home yesterday, grab it out of the mailbox and put it right on the stereo. My only problem with these single-layer SACDs is that I have to listen to them at home... with hybrid SACDs, I can easily rip them for listening on my iPod or computer at work. Not a big problem for this kind of album, which is better suited to a comfy chair.

Love that album. Nobody can tell a small, sad story like (ie. 5:15 am) like he can.

Does he stop the grandfather clock collection when he's listening to music? And even if stopped what about the chime resonating? I went so far as to use a swept sine in my room to identify what was in there ringing along to the music. And moved offending items to another room.
