That's what I use on all my power tools, I find I can make a Ryobi perform like a Festool with that power cable.

No it doesn't really bother me either.

Holy crap that looks friggin' sweet! I'm gonna have to turn my rack around now, so people can see that beauty! The fiberglass sleeving is gorgeous, and looks to be exactly the right size. Was it difficult to get it over the cable?

Hey that's a pic of some of my old gear on the second window!

Damn, even Doctors can't afford that shit?!

Well Marc and I kind of came to the same conclusion. We decided to just try feeding the subs directly from the headphone outputs, since the active subs (you assumed correctly) have XLR inputs. This would negate the need to actually add a preamp output. Glad to hear that you concur, not that I doubt Marc for an instant, but two like opinions always make me feel better.

Aptly named, because where I'm from when we caught a Dogfish we just threw it back.

LOL! I read this as prototype JBL, and I thought good god why would he go from Theils to JBLs?

Nate my hope was to use my Beta22 to drive the new Omega Grande 6's I've got comming. And what I wanted was to also send a signal to my powered subs so that they would both be attenuated by the Joshua Tree. However if this isn't the best solution I'm more than willing to consider alternatives.

Me too, good show. When will part three air?

aerius I love ya buddy, but I looked and looked and I couldn't find any sarcasm in this post. Please don't make a habit of this.

Get you some nice Cerwin Vegas, they crank man!

You forgot the racial slur and the sexist slur. Please review and resubmit.

I take excetion to that statement!

I've always had, and always will have a speaker system, but for me there are plenty of times when headphone listening is still preferable. Not SQwise mind you, but necessity wise. Speakers only topple the headphone system at higher volumes for me. Drop down to a low intimate listening level and the and the distance starts to narrow. But yeah, there's no beating a good speaker setup when you can turn the volume up. One can't truly understand soundstaging until they've heard a great speaker rig.

Jesus Christ! Do we have a HeadCase recruiter at the Junior Highs or something? Where in the hell are these pimple faced dorks coming from?

Honestly you'd probably have to spend a fair sum of money to significantly outclass the Arcam as a transport anyway. I think you probably are well founded in your decision. And I'd be wary of being bitten again too.

If memory serves I think fierce_freak used one as a preamp and quite liked it.

...Steve cleans Pepsi he spit out off his monitor...

I wish it worked that way, but the actual house movers kind of rule the roost on this one.

Can't say I blame you, but I was kind if hoping you'd build the new HiFiDIY transport, and tell us what's different.

So what about the Hertsens?

I'm really not at all homophobic, but it still pisses me off that they had a carpenter/construction worker in the group. Every time I have to put on a hardhat I think of that guy, and it's just kind of ... well emasculating.
