The Monkey

Now I want the Ayre DAC.

It's also interesting given that I think TAS and maybe Stereophile (not sure about that one) have review samples. Odd that the revision would be introduced during that time.

I don't have the tech knowledge to determine if it's BS. You really think it is? The USB Asynch sounds like something real.

^That looks interesting.

Aubert Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnay 2008

PWD Mk2 coming out. I guess it's good that it is upgradeable for those of us who have the mk1, but the price is a bit steep for early adopters of a unit that was supposed to be da bomb. I know this is the way it goes, but something here doesn't sit well with me.

Nugget Audio FTW.

Great stuff, Kerry!

I like cheese.

Gotta agree with Mikey on the Barbershop review. That stuff sucks.

lol @ the creepy picture. Happy Birthday!

Shelly, I've always preferred buying over the phone with Todd because I also tend not to have the easiest time with the website.

Thanks, Birgir, I suspected as much.

The Omega has sounded amazing to me every time I've heard it.

I read a post elsewhere that mentioned "obvious" quality control differences between O2 mk1s. I have not noticed such differences. Has anyone else experienced this?

Too many, Wes, too many.

woohoo!

Nothing new yet! This was the last bit of some Whistle Pig I had. Come to think of it, there's a delivery downstairs...

Thanks, Ric. I'll wait til I'm finished with the book, then. But it's good to see some live action stuff to put a voice and mannerisms to the man portrayed in the bio.

How was it Ric?

Cool, I was thinking about doing some bike riding recently. But all of our bikes are screwed up. I don't remember the last time I was on a bike.

Shelly's desktop = WIN

Manhattan. Do I need to put these griottines in the fridge after opening?

I'd probably go with the Black exterior/steel interior to maintain my generally tough look.
