Anyone by chance hear/get a copy of AryeWave? Stereophile: Wavelength Leads the Way

Had a CRT, but mostly watched everything on a laptop, iPad or in theaters. Either travelled to the big screen (much easier in SF than the burb I recently moved to) or replicated the hidden book and flashlight under the covers thing (watched Gus Van Sant's LAST DAYS with iPad and HD25-1s last night). Like the intimacy, like headphones. Know it affects the films watched, like headphones. Have to admit I'm a bit bias (have said a few times "becoming an audiophile pushes you towards better music, but becoming a videophile nudges you towards worse films." Only half believe that, but am a tiny bit nervous of the candy pull. I certainly can get distracted. Anyway, I've crossed over (picked up the Emotiva sub on sale also) so will see where this leads. Revisiting 2001 is a great suggestion. Curious of checking out IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE and 2046 again too. I'm sure in the end I'll probably like the jump. Please attack me if I start posting about the beauty of THE FIFTH ELEMENT though. Speaking of 2001, will be interesting to see how the GF reacts tonight when she returns from trip with a monolith on the wall. Maybe I should have the soundtrack playing.

Happy Birthdays Caballeros.

Here's a breakdown of the various Amarras: Stereophile: Amarra 2.1, Amarra Vinyl, Amarra Complete, What's Amarra You?

Well although I may be a cinemaphile, I'm no videophile. Only bought because increasingly getting comments from friends and having to go over to their pads for everything. So took advantage of the following sale this weekend (pickup). Not LED, but price is right and decent picture... LG 42" 120Hz 1080p LCD HDTV - $499 - dealmac.com

Setup my first HDTV. Attached computer. Installed Mobile Mouse on iPad. Surfing HC from couch.

For those on iPads, etc.:

Cool. JP, keep the updates coming for those of us afar.

Treat yourselves! Is this a biggie Vicki?

Maybe for those who want Edition 10s on a budget: Pioneer blings out HDJ-1000 headphones, turns them into a $209 Limited Edition

Good news Vicki. Any additional info on the 3A/16 timelines? Still debating about my order.

They better do The Third Man title justice! "In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed

Jerry giveth and he taketh away. My JH13s came back yesterday. Think we've finally found a good fit and although I've only had 20 minutes listening time, believe the imbalance issue is either gone or slight enough to be ignored (was pretty obvious before). Shape and canal length differences still exist between the two sides not there in my other customs, so not sure the end point is where we'd arrive without the many modifications, but I think we're finally good.

I think your experience of radio voices is pretty common for many. I'm curious if this short story (also from NPR) confirms your mathematician theory. It's a killer. MP3: Selected Shorts - Ron Carlson - Towel Season. From MathFiction:

It's okay Justin, 176.4 is fine.

Bummer. You can't have everything at this price point, but it looks like USB is limited to 16/48. Don't understand why companies release 24/192 DACs, then implement a system that limits the most likely input to supply over 24/96.

Instead of CDs are we trading DACs this year?

Where did that 12/1 ship date line go? Not listed in menu currently either. Wonder how many orders they got in the last 24? Emotiva Audio XDA-1 Digital-to-Analog Converter

Anyone got a link to order replacement pads? Don't see at Audiocubes2 or Stax.

x2. So far have liked Emotivas sound and disliked their 'high-tech' goofy home theater stylin'. Even used to reverse the RPA-2 amp because I preferred to look at input/outputs rather than the bright blue lights.

Keep in mind from dcpoors link, there were several earlier dates, so Dec. may already have Emotivas famous delays built-in.
