The Monkey

Thanks, Jin, I'll check it out. You know me--I'm pretty hip. Shelly, that drink is win. That sentence makes me happy. I'm going to do more stuff because I felt like it.

Guys, sorry for the horribly newb question, but what are the primary uses for an oscilloscope in audio? Would it be of any use to a beginner DIYer like myself? I guess what I'm wondering is what I would need to provide some sort of meaningful measurements/data about my gear.

I also have not heard Rega digital, but want to. I saw all the press accolades re the last couple of Rega CDPs, which extolled their analogicity. I'm beginning to understand that type of compliment as meaning a rather soft and distant presentation. I'd like to see if that holds with this DAC. I also need to get at least a passable TT setup so I can become more familiar with what analog sound really means.

I got a Keurig single cup brewer for Christmas. Not a huge fan. It's acceptable for emergencies, but the coffee simply is not strong, fresh, rich, good, etc. enough. Also my othee coffee maker--a Krups--is driving me crazy. The coffee tastes like dirty dishwater. I'm thinking about throwing it out and just going with the French press for multiple cups and the aeropress for single cups. Life is too short to drink shitty coffee.

Agree. The new post thing is really the only thing I'm not liking so far. And it could just be a learning curve thing, but I have not yet been able to replicate the updated thread listings so that they mimic what we had under vbulletin. Anyone set it up successfully yet?

I should ask if they have a loaner program.

New DAC from Rega: http://www.rega.co.uk/html/DAC.htm Wolfson chipses. I like Wolfson chipses. Discuss.

Very intuitive interface. Really liking it a lot. Looks like the smileys didn't make it over. I need me some :facepalm:

Chat is blazing fast on the iPad.

Great job, Todd! I love the new look and feel.

Happy birthday!!

Jeff, I'd be interested in how your clothes do in terms of wrinkles.

Speaking of rats...

Forgot one of these for SE...

Love this. Thanks Grahame. I've had some near run-ins with the Advertising Standards Authority. I wish FTC or at the very least NAD would go after these fuckers on this side of the pond.
