The Monkey

Listening to them now. iMod--->TTVJ Portable--->JH13. The refit is very good. Maybe not perfect because I feel like it now might be a tiny bit too small. But I need to listen a bit. Definitely not painful, which is great.

The PWD is at home waiting for me to caress it.

Hopefully our other PWD owners will join in here, too. Heh: Pefect timing. I don't think my unit has shipped yet...

I ordered one of these DACses and will post impressions, pics, and random musings here.

Nate, the fit issue you are describing seems very similar to what I experienced with my JH13. The right earpiece was ever so slightly comfortable while in, but I sort of didn't notice it after a while...until I removed the right earpiece and felt a sense of relief, like my ear canal was sore and I didn't realize it.

Fell asleep before I could do any listening. Dreams of yetis dancing in my head.

I'm about to go to bed and listen to the refits. If I don't like the bass it appears that I am a yeti-kissing, unrock-balled, fucktard BatMonkey. That's a lot of pressure.

Yetis need love, too.

I love Charlie Murphy.

The Jh13s are waiting for me at home. We have company coming tonight, but whatever I'm gonna listen to these things first.

I liked that article, too. One thing that has me confused now, however, is why it took so long to get it out. As I understand it, the Steve had always said the tech just wasn't there and he wouldn't release it until it was perfect. Well, it doesn't seem perfect. But more importantly, it seems like the tech was there when they launched the iPhone. Hell, we could be on the 3rd or 4th iteration by now. Regardless, I agree that the debate about the fundamental way in which we relate to computers and technology generally is fascinating and worthwhile. I'm just not a fan of Apple's self-fueled hype machine. Basically, I think Jobs is a disingenuous prick. A genius, but still a prick.

How else will this damn thing connect to the internets?

I've been listening to a lot of Warren Zevon lately. He was really good. A real loss.

smarty pants.

I just found out there's no RS-232 port. Deal-breaker.

Gotdammit. Where does the Beyer T1 fit into all of this? One of you will need to buy that soon.

I know.

Jebus. Now I want the 404LE.

Moar bass! It will be interesting to hear mine after the refit. Al thinks I will hear the angels sing. Those angels better lay down some thick bass riffs. Greg, what happened with the ULN-8?

Is this vb4 Forum or vb4 Publishing Suite?

When the hell are the new MBPs coming out?

For the AudioEngine A2s

I like bats.

iirc, the DacMagic also gets physically hot. Is that correct?
