JH Audio stuffs
After hearing a bunch of gear this weekend, it's clear there's still a balance issue with my JH13s. On my last attempt to fix I was so happy just to get the leads in semi-position (so much better than before when balance could be off 20 degrees), and willfully wished not to send back a fifth time, I ignored the obvious. Why I didn't think about adjusting them in the ears (right pulled out a bit) to see if I could align center I'm not sure. Once centered (even if seal in jeopardy), they sounded sooo much better. Recommended getting another impression, so two new sets going out to JHA tomorrow. Pick the best set Jerry! Please oh please get it right this time. Especially with JH3A/JH16s coming soon.

The Chicago Code
Anyone watch the pilot? On the plus side someone is finally using Jennifer Beals and the rest of the cast are interesting choices (and faces). On the negative it's from the creator of The Shield (characters are consistently constipated here too) and every fifth word of the script was 'Chicago' ('That's the Cha-cog-oh way!', 'And that's how we do things in Cha-cog-oh!', etc.). Strange mix between Scorsese-lite action and horrible TV dialogue.

MacBook Pro Advice
Lower speed model with 128GB SSD upgrade comes in $14 more than faster model. I'm using educational discount (as nearly anyone can), but similar otherwise. You're losing space, but likely gaining speed. Course you can do the SSD thing separately for cheaper.

XLR Splitter
Old thread bump. Thinking of the same and possibly Y adapter cables available around. Know there's a bunch using similar RCAs, don't know the unique properties of XLR splitting. Anything I should consider/beware?

Oppo BDP-95
Mentally subscribed. Am especially curious about your experience with those FLACs over the 95s eSATA/USB (SQ/UI/etc.).
