Jan Meier might have an "in" on the German side. He's usually pretty responsive to emails.

[Happy Birthday to you, jp11801!]

[Ny meet nov 9 2013]

Tom popped my cherry in the back room of Grado labs in November of 2002. Good times.

 

 

Wait..

[NAD VISO HP50]

Thanks Nebby.

 

Todd - the Lunchbox has a pretty high output impedance - yes?

           (wondering if that's the ideal choice for a low-impedance can?)

[HC Bike/Cycling Thread]

Glad to hear the recovery is going well Justin.

[NAD VISO HP50]

What is the nominal impedance of the HP50's?

[HP1000 amp]

Depending on how consolidated & cheap you want to go, and if you can find one on the used market, the discontinued Apogee Mini-DAC gels nicely with Grados, IME.

@shellyh - LOL!

 

@AKG - more insane flagship headphone pricing.

That sucks, Brent. Glad to hear everyone's okay.

^this. thank goodness.

[The Official Head-Case Photography Thread.]

Really nice pics CJ! (and nice story too)

[Light Harmonic Geek Pulse]

I'm amazed at the industry response to these USB dongle-type DACs (Audioquest Dragonfly, Meridian Explorer, etc.)

 

I mean, a tiny device based on miniature IC's, with output stages getting juice from USB power? What does that say for traditional audiophile engineering beliefs (discrete circuits, beefy power supplies, class-A, sturdy cases, etc.)? Do they really match up to full-sized components, or are they "just" a gateway drug?

[HC Bike/Cycling Thread]

Jeff, you look awesome! Way to go on the weight loss.

 

^ all of this Jeff - congrats & keep it up!

[And now what did you do TODAY?]

Hoping for the best possible outcome for you & all of your family Todd.

[Happy Birthday Dusty!]

Happy Birthday!

[Happy 60th Hirsch!]

Sony RX10 features 1-inch 20.2MP sensor, 24-200mm constant f/2.8 lens http://feedly.com/k/1er8J4u

 

This seems like a terrific soccer-dad/mom type camera. Perfect for kids sports or other performance events. The sensor has shown decent low-light performance for the size. Coupled with a fast lens allowing for stop-action shutter speeds make it just the ticket. Add on an RX100 for EDC & you (and potentially a partner) have got family events covered at all times for under two G's. Shit, that would cover 99% of us.
