The Monkey

Is the hi res display worth it on the 15" for the typical asshole like myself?

Hop Rod Rye.

Delicious. Twist a kitten over it (just enough to release essential oils), and you're all set.

I haven't found the answer to the sample rate question, though I believe OS X resamples to whatever is selected in MIDI setup if you don't have it set to the exact sample rate of the file. HOWEVER, from what I can glean from the various internets, the bit depth can be left at whatever setting is the highest bit depth file you have and still play bit perfect at lower bit depths. So, for example, if you have bit depth set to 24 on the Mac and you play a 16 bit file, you are not losing any bits and are still technically bit perfect because the last 8 bits are static 0s. In other words, it doesn't matter. Conversely, of course, playing a 24 bit file while the bit depth is set to 16 will result in data being truncated. So, I feel relatively comfortable leaving the bit-depth on my 'puter at 24. Sorry if all of this is obvious, but I thought it shouldn't be done.

Good. I hope you continue to share your considerable expertise with the good folks over there.

I really think the other site I suggested has the type of discussion you're looking for. I hope so.

There are other headphone forums out there. I think you would enjoy headfi.com in particular. Good luck and enjoy!

Take it easy.

Knucks, what do you use to post when on the move?

BTW, thinking back on the Brooklyn I made the other day, I owe Jim some thanks because I used only 1/4 of the recommended Maraschino liquor and it was delicious. That Maraschino should be used like bitters.

Eagle Rare.

I've never been to a Chick-fil-A.

Sweet Jesus. I am a jealous man.

Nice. Time for bed, but I liked what I heard a lot.

There we go. Groovin'.

Trying to listen Knucks, but it won't connect...

I haven't loved the episodes so far, but I like the general set up. Also liked the recent Pappy product placement, though it looks like there might have been some IP issues because they referred to it as "Pippy" Van Winkle or some such nonsense.

I'm always having problems with that guy.

I do believe the help has been drinking my whiskey. It's almost gone.

Bluecoat.

Manhattan, then Brooklyn--both with High West 16. Screw the rest of the boroughs--moving on to Eagle.

Thanks, Al, and excellent advice. I figured I'd want someone to do it for my mom. I even advised the husband to take a picture of the thing she tripped on (a crowd control gate). But I get it. She's hurt, scared, embarrassed (shouldn't be), and just wants to get out of there. Hope she's ok, but her family seemed smart.

About a block away from the office on the way home saw a woman trip and fall and smash her face on the sidewalk. Blood everywhere. She was 60 and with her husband and I called an ambulance right away. Fortunately, she was conscious and alert. The woman's daughter showed up after about 10 minutes and they decided to get up and head home. Ambulance arrived about 3 minutes later. I told the EMTs what happened and they took off. The sound of her head hitting the sidewalk is not easy to forget.

I have a 2010 bottle and I'm a big fan.
