Herbie's HAL-O tube dampers.

Well, I think I'm going to try out some new tubes (and Herbie's tube dampers - I had forgotten about them) with the phonostage. Time to go look through some 6922 tubes.

Congrats, Ethan! I hope everything works out well for you.

I may give the JJ tubes a try. At $10 a tube, it's worth a shot to see if it'll solve the noise issue.

I was wondering if anyone knew the going rate for a used ARC PH3 phonostage in a good condition? I've been thinking of selling it and replacing it with a solid state phonostage since it's not exactly the quietest phonostage. I'm wondering if I can resolve some of the noise issue by replacing the tubes, but I know very little about the design of PH3 and 6922 tubes it uses. EDIT - I've been looking on A'Gon, but haven't seen any PH3 on there of late.

LOL. Yeah, for a custom work, it'll probably be around a year wait or so - my order's not there yet. Of course, having had an amp built by him before, I knew of the potential for long wait, especially with ordering something that is probably pretty close to being one-off.

cheap silicon covers for Wii remotes & nunchuks.

Speaking of mini-dac power supply, if you don't want to shell out for getting a sigma11 built, there's an Elpac ps you can buy that reportedly is noticeably better than the stock one. Unfortunately, I didn't get to try that option before I sold my mini-dac a while back.

Yep. I remember that. I can't wait till I replace my iBook eventually - my iMac (previous gen) will have to tide me over till then.

Goldfish.

Got tired of playing PS2 (and listening to CD's), so now I'm watching a Good Eats rerun.

In case anyone's interested, it's about $4K w/ tubes.

Nate, if you decide to go with a Mac (assuming someone figures out a way to sell the idea to your wife), I'd wait until October when the new OS X comes out. And yes, I know this really wasn't an advice at all.

Eric Clapton - 461 Ocean Boulevard (SACD)

Thanks, Reks! I had forgotten about the PithHelmet!

I had been using a CSS for ad blocking, but the one I've been using kills non-advertisement as well on occasions (like smileys on this site) so I stopped using it. Any other options for good ad blocking on Safari, or should I just suck it up and hope the new Safari will do a better job of it?

Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense Also reacquired few Massive Attack albums that I've managed to misplace over the years.

I liked it, when I heard couple pieces off of it a long while back. For $4, I figured it was worth taking a chance on my audio memory. It's hybrid-sacd, too.

Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds for $4. It should be here in few days.
