Happy belated John! Glad to hear it was a good one, hope to see you soon!

The pico slim I believe is a very high quality buffer with excellent channel balance made specifically for iems, correct?

DAC not important, current my DAC usage is comcast cable box and oppo output for movies and TV. Really just need a decent preamp but balanced output with a legitimate single ended to balance conversion for the TT.

https://wyred4sound.com/products/pre-amps/mpre would love to hear anyone's thoughts on this. For the price it looks too good to be true. I've been eyeing on an upgrade on my emotiva dc1 for a while, more so as a preamp vs DAC (so far my DAC usage has been cable tv from the oppo and Apple TV optical for tv/movie purposes). Fully discrete dual differential balanced both on the input and output side, but the kicker for me is that it will take the rca in and perform the balanced output "correctly" to feed my stealth monitors.

Analogue Productions 45 mastered by George Marino. Who needs the DCC anyways - this one sounds great.

I hear you, at that point I think thats where the firstwatt B4 comes in. This would be for my speaker rig, which the room is just weird to say the least. Having access to some simple EQ controls but done relatively transparently I think could work well in my setup.

http://www.schiit.com/products/loki I don't think im insane for entertaining the idea of owning what appears to be a discrete, quality EQ device. Thoughts?

damn this shit is tough to listen to but tight as hell.

Happy birthday to a great friend and awesome dude! See you next week!

My wife's 6 is the same she's been meaning to upgrade so no worries. I haven't gone to new iOS on my 6S, sounds like I should just hold off?

They have arrived! The builder got the color exactly what I wanted and was able to match the trapezoidal shape of the speakers perfectly.

This is actually the first time I've listened to ziggy front to back

Sorry! For some reason I would click quote, submit, nothing would happen, would do it again and again, and it actually did submit as you can see.

Let us (me) know how the T1's are, I was seriously considering them at one point.

Arcade fire everything now. Very new wave ish and at points even sounds like ABBA but I hate myself for somewhat enjoying it.

https://hagerman-audio-labs.myshopify.com/collections/phono-preamps/products/bugle2 for the DIYers. It's been refreshed to a new version with internal switches to change loading and gain, so the previous version is back to purchasing as a board.

Just saw and thought of your decks. Imagine a brand new refreshed sp10 in whatever plinth and tonearm of choice!

Yeah I thought it should have scored closer than that. Through 8 rounds mcgregor did well.

I looked at them Todd and agree they do rest work. The price they quoted me was a little higher than I budgeted for so I ended up going with the builder I found on etsy.
