Not enough DACs in that stoar.

I'm giving the Bryston another go. I think I gave up on it too quickly.

baa.

Here's another DAC list: The complete d/a DAC converter list - Marantzphilips.nl But the Marantz isn't on it.

...still laughing at the to do list... Happy birthday, 'stretch.

Those were morphsci's to which I was referring, but atothex thinks I'm crazy. I'm on the lookout for a Yamaha ortho (you bastards), but I want one that's essentially NOS.

One of the many things I like about meets is you get to see and talk to people about how they listen to/live with their gear and music. I tend toward short, intense listening sessions. But I know that many of you go for the long, blissed out approach. Fun to see different "styles." And I realize that's almost infinitely dorky. Also, I was pleased to hear from Vicki that there are days when she thinks her gear just doesn't sound right. I've felt that way over the last 2 days. It's all sounding very bright and muddy at the same time.

I liked them and the build quality was better than I expected. My only complaints are 1) I felt like they sounded a bit veiled and 2) price.

At least your meetings sound cool. I recommend telling the folks at JH Audio to make sure that the red is dark enough. I think the lighter reds get a little pinkish. And now you should stand up on your chair and start chanting, "USA! USA!" Your colleagues will like that.

I like that viking picture. He's kinda SOL after he kills the shark, though, isn't he?

I will now call this model the Grado Gigli.

If I were to get a pair, and I most certainly am not getting a pair, I would do the left earpiece in smoky black and the right earpiece in smoky red.

heh, seriously, WTF?

I think those are going to be filled with suck.

Is it still 2 shots or have they gotten it down to one for the swine flu?

This basically confirms what I thought, thanks. People just like to scare and be scared these days, I think. Plus, I like bacon. Both reasonable adult solutions. I would like to join you.

Woke up with a migraine. Not a good day. 'stretch, did your family get the swine flu shot?

Thanks for the kind words, guys. Steve, I talked with grawk at DanJam about the Buffalo v. the UDAC. He can ring in here, but based on our conversation, I think the Buffalo32 will do the trick for you.

^Still haven't done that. Should be fun with the Little Monkey. Did you see any naked chicks in the Standard Hotel?

'stretch, my Stereophile just came today and I just read the article. I agree it's a generally good review, especially explaining the tech stuff without getting too complicated. However, I didn't get an idea of the sound signature of the damn thing from the review, which always annoys me. Also, the reviewer basically says, oh yeah and it sounds the same as the Bel Canto. I agree with you that it's a rave, but Stereophile just makes me go . Except when I see my NAD C372 on the recommended list--just like you said. Also, the DAC looks TEH SEXY TIME in black.
