RIP Phil Harris
I met Phil once at the UniSea Inn bar in Dutch Harbor. This was long before he was on the TV show ('92ish). He was really wanting to see the ship I fished on (F/T Ocean Rover), which was at that time the most modern, luxurious and best producing factory trawler in the Bering Sea. So anyway he came on board for a tour and regaled us with stories of crab fishing. Needless to say it was a lot of fun watching him on Deadliest Catch later. RIP Phil

The Headcase Stax thread
I was the first to say "Colt-45, It works every time", but they gave the fucking credit to Lando Calrissian!

What did you do today?
That truly sucks! Do not settle for anything less than a perfect repair!

Dynahi?
Just send $79.99 and make the check out to the Head-Case CanJam Liquor Fund.

I don't hate either of you. The more Grados you two buy, the fewer I have to listen to. OK, OK...It was just a joke. Ease up Grado fanboys. Seriously, Congratulations both of you. I would like to hear the mighty PS-1 someday. Since it's definite that I'll make CanJam this year, that may be the time and place.

True that, but I'll be OK with not owning the latest DAC once that happens. Heck my headphones are 20 years old! It'll be nice to settle into a rig for a while.

Driving across the country!
I've only done a very short part of that drive. A few years ago I drove my Aunt back to Texas from Vegas. We visited my Brother in Lake Havasu City and took I-40 as far as Amarillo. There is some beautiful scenery! It was about this time of year, and we saw a little bit of snow in Flagstaff, but nothing that gave us any problems. Should be a great adventure you'll remember forever! Have a great time! All season radials would not be a bad choice if possible.

My DAC has been in a perpetual state of wood for about 14 years now. That did come close to changing recently, when the Connery/Zardoz pic was posted though.

Preamp with at least 1 balanced in, 1 balanced out, and one balanced loop/tape out?
That's a great idea Nate. Fingers crossed!

How Can I Tell What Scew Size I Need for a Threaded Insert
^ Agreed, and most smaller Mom & Pop type hardware stores sell screws individually, so you don't have to buy but one of each guestimated size.

Pipe down you in the back row! Captain Obvious to the main lobby please... A DAC for Dr. Wood in fact, in case you couldn't tell from my last subtle post.

Happy Birthday Jeff!- Post the last thing you bought!
I've borrowed a DAC from a co-worker that I'm not real familiar with, so it's difficult to know what's the DAC and what's the transport at this stage. I've heard the belt does make a difference though. We'll see.- What did you do today?
Here's hoping she wakes up feeling fine, 'cause it's gonna be bad enough with everyone well. Good luck and good flight Sir.- Part Sourcing Assistance/Advice Thread
This man knows of which he speaks! The Neotech makes a BadAss K1000 speaker adapter indeed! Nate built me this beauty, and it sounds as good as it looks (and it looks DAMN good)!- The ultimate DIY? A Stax SRM-T2!
That sounds hot Birgir!- Preamp with at least 1 balanced in, 1 balanced out, and one balanced loop/tape out?
This project has Ari written all over it. (nice of me to volunteer him huh?) I'd be more than willing to take high res internal pics if necessary.- PS Audio PerfectWave DAC
A train doesn't sound bad either! As long as I get to be the caboose that is.- General DAC Questions/Tech Thread
It's a bit technical, but the short version is that it turns these: 1100000101010001110 into these: ♮ ♭ ♯- The ultimate DIY? A Stax SRM-T2!
What will the faceplate finish be? I presume brushed, but ya never know, you might be a polished guy. - Happy Super Bowl Birthday VPI !!!
