KGSSHV, Balanced Dynahi Rev A and DynaFET board run
Agreed. A extra wait to ensure that the boards are perfect is well worth it.

The analog thread.
Looking to get a second headshell for my TT. Are there any real differences or is it all the same hype and BS?

Schiit Bifrost
Same D/A chip as in the Cary Xciter and Esoteric K-01 I like the upgrade idea but I wonder if the "modules" will be a better value than just buying a new DAC down the line with the new components.

The analog thread.
With the help of RJM, I abolished the hum coming from my phono stage and now on clean records, my setup is darn near silent. Also has anyone had any experience with a Spin Clean? I'm looking for a fairly inexpensive say to get a good, deep clean.

Cheap HDMI to optical converter
Did a little looking and SPDIF isn't carried by the HDMI cable. The video and the audio share the same data lines so you need to have some active components to split up the two streams. The amazon one looks to be the least expensive and I think its funny that right in the details it says "Does not support AppleTV" and then there's one reviewer who is complaining that it doesn't work with his AppleTV...

Boston Meet
I'd just like to thank everyone from HC who helped me out with the room cost. I still haven't been fully charged for it yet but I am more than certain I've been covered. You are an awesome crowd.

And now what did you do TODAY?
There's a storm a brewing even here on the cape. Glad you are keeping safe. Starting looking at cars today and found one I liked. Wasn't going to buy it until the dealer offered me what I originally paid for my car and twice what I thought it was worth. Now I'm gonna have some new wheels tomorrow...

Microcontroller based switchbox
From what I know, relays offer better sound quality as far as distortion goes compared to similarly priced analog muxes. Operating a FET in the triode region can't quite achieve the linearity nor the bandwidth of a decent mechanical switch.

How is Hellhound? Finally drinking my Bitches Brew and I have to say that it fails to live up to the hype.

Boston Meet
Darn, Young Min beat me to it. And yes, same hotel as last year but a different room that's about the same size.

Actually I'm in Woosta. It's cold and wet, I'm getting sick of being in school and that's about it. Tonight's Whisky Wednesday covered Isle of Skye, Kilchoman's Summer and Winter releases and Smokehead. Was not impressed with any of these.

And now what did you do TODAY?
The liquor store near me, Julio's, has a huge whisk(e)y tasting festival every year at this time. Had all sorts of bourbon, rye, blended and single malt whiskies and whiskeys. Perhaps the most surprising was Amrut Single Malt which is a peated whisky from India that is indistinguishable from a good peated highland malt.
