The Monkey

The 007 mk2 is known to most as the 007 mk2. The mk1 comes up for sale with some frequency.

Which MOTU product is best suited to home listening?

Has anyone heard this DAC yet?

The Stax thread is only 1300 pages when I paste it into Word. Off to Kinko's!

Glad I pressed them to cut the check yesterday because god forbid I allow myself to participate in a 200+ point rally. There's a reason I did not become a trader.

Just to clarify, the item that arrived today is, indeed, a potty seat, and not a potty sear, which likely would be considerably less fun for my son.

To my former employer's credit, they resolved the issue and I was able to initiate the distribution today. And the "Cars" Potty Sear arrived today to much fanfare and joy. My son likes it, too.

It's these stupid computers.

Tried to rollover my 401k from former employer and was told that one computer program still had me listed as an active employee, so it can't be processed for 1-2 business days. As nicely as possible I told them, There's a reason I want it today, assholes, and it's been 6 months since I left. Fix it NOW. I was told that they'll call me back today when the problem is fixed. I'm going to file that it the not very fuckin' likely pile.

You, sir, are the best.

Word.

"Cars" potty seat.

sweet jesus.

They were seriously awesome. My dad used to order them all the time. I can't believe I forget the name. And I've been googlin' but I can't find anything like it. Dammit.

There used to be a small company that advertised in the back of Rolling Stone magazine before the Interwebs. They used to sell 10 T-Shirts for 10 bucks or something like that. You would just order your size and you would get 10 different and random brand new remnants, all well made, just overstock for Ralph's Air Conditioning, etc. Does something like that still exist?

so cool. Looking forward to BHSE pr0n.

Happy b-day a little late.

cool. You'd think there would be an easy way to export or dump it into a text file.

whoa, Ken. Sorry to hear that. Good vibes headed your way.

oy, one of those bicycles that goes vrooom?

You and me both. What's ailing you?

Happy Birthday Nate, have a great day.

Thanks for the responses, guys. This is very interesting to me.

I have been looking into this more also and have the same question. In particular, I have the North Star m192 mkII DAC, which is supposed to be "better" technically (e.g., better chips, better power supply). But it does not have a discrete output stage (I think I'm saying that right) unlike the mk1. I guess my question is, why would they use ICs for the output stage on the "better" version? As used above "better" is according to north star. Kevin (and anyone else), in addition to my question above, is there a specific area of improvement with a discrete design? Kevin, meet peanutbutter, peanutbutter meet Kevin Gilmore.

That said "hearing" is not actually jp's arraignment.
