So there is going to be a new Nick Drake boxset in December, containing all his 3 studio albums remastered. I was wondering if anyone has heard anything about this? Amazon.com: Fruit Tree (limited): Nick Drake: Music

Was there a SR-404 or other phones from the Lambda series at the meet? And how did they pair up with the Woo GES?

Is this the last new episode before the strike?

Just questioning your logic, since you transfer your dislike of Moon Audio cables to the amp, which isn't even designed by Moon Audio to begin with.

The Luna isn't even a Moon Audio amp; it's designed by K&K Audio, Lundahl's US distributor.

damn, i wish foobar was available for OS X

*Drool* Omfg, I am so tempted to get an O2 setup next year...They fixed the one issue I had with the original: the earpads.

Well, I'm using the OS X install disc to reinstall the bundled software, but it's frustrating that it won't let me choose which ones to install but instead installs EVERYTHING.

Actually my Macbook did not come with a DVD Player software; that's why I've been using VLC so far.

I installed VLC player, and it doesn't read my NetFlix DVDs. Help?

The headphone output on the Cary 300SEI is shit for low-impedance loads: they just added a resistor from the main analog output stage to lower noise, but in the process upped the output impedance on the headphone output. High output impedance + low-impedance load = YUCK! Bloated bass plus overly tubey sound.

Does ADAM have a "house sound"? I'm looking at the larger P22A for next year, mainly because I like AMT-tweeters, but I don't know if ADAM has that cold clinical sound.

That room is not that bad if it's just for audio. However, if that's also the living space, then having full-range floor-standers would be a problem.

I am quite happy with my monitors, and I had a headphone rig that was much better than his But seriously, having full-range, floor-standing speakers is pretty much next to impossible in college, since space is limited, and we move every year. It's probably better to get some decent monitors plus a good sub.

so I think I might have fucked up: when I tried to cork the bottle after pouring a glass, I think I might have used a little too much force. Now the cork is kind of stuck there, and I can't pull it out. I would welcome any kind of suggestion.

So JP finally listed the pair that I sold to him. Oh well.

because it's a big fuck-you to all the haters

Still really enjoying my TVC, and I think I'm definitely going to be one of the converted now

Pitchfork is like the Stereophile of "indie" music: you can't trust what they say, even if on occasion you agree with them.

*single tear flowing down cheek* :'(

@aerius: That looks nice, but looks too rich for my blood, for now.

yes it can, that's what the front input jack is for. duh.

So my TVC just got here today; it uses the S&B transformer. Let's just say that I like it a lot. It has enough gain for me in my system, and the biggest things that I noticed are improved dynamics and more realistic decay of instruments. Overall the TVC makes my current system has a more of the "there-ness" to the music. I was listening to "Cookin' with Miles Davis Quintet", and every instrumental just sounds more real I guess. The decay on Paul Chamber's bass is ridiculously natural, the most natural I've heard so far.

In the words of The Wolf: "let's not start sucking each other's dicks quite yet."
