Two weeks without SR-007 mk1, painful :'[

Say the hard disks are error free, but what about the hardware sending the digital stream to the DAC? Like the sound card or the USB bus...

Not A/B, but I have heard differences in transports feeding DACs.

Yeah I saw the thread on AA after posting. It looks like no updates to the full size line

A bit late to this thread, but did Magnepan show off new speakers at CES, and if they did anyone listen to them?

In what way do headphones present more information than speakers? Maybe more micro detail, but imaging, spacial cues, depth of soundstage and "realism" are all created much better on good speakers IMO. In my experience source differences are much more apparent on great speakers than even the best headphones as well.

Jeez I guess I'll pick up a pair Which stats have you heard? I'd be impressed if it had higher resolution than an SR-Lambda or Koss ESP/950.

I have noticed on needled drops people have sent me the 24/96 usually sounds better since it is recorded directly from the soundcard. Whereas going to 16/44 requires some downconverting algorithm. There are surprising differences in SQ between different algorithms.

Mod the MMG into a new "cabinet", dew eeettt!

Where would you ortho heads rank the modded T50rp in the ortholand?

Any chance you guys could organize filming it like the previous National?

Happy birthday!

Started a very busy rotation. Finished a 36 hour shift on Friday, and now working all day Sunday

Is that because the equivalent of a photographic hipster can then leave and receive compliments and oohs and ahs at the pictures taken I keed. The selectable multiple resolutions is nice.

Yeah I saw that. It was mostly a concern if Rolex will honor a non-AD warranty. Not that I've ever heard of anything going wrong within the warranty period with Subs. I guess I'll look more into it, I'm a waffler anyway.

Yup you're right, sold by Jomashop. Weariness meter rising

Buying a Submariner off amazon.com, good or bad idea? My local AD wouldn't discount much even though we've bought from him before.

Mac Guide says the MBP is mid cycle right now. What do you guys think the chances are of Apple updating the 17" MBP to the current design (LED backlit, aluminum enclosure, etc)? edit: woop guess they're up for preorder

I nominate Reks for his bloody shitty string of luck in early 08.

If there was a Spanielsh House, I picture Torpedo as He.

Other than imports and CDs on small labels (including audiophile labels), CDs are pretty reasonable...

Luis the fruit and veggie only diet your doctor suggested for two weeks sounds like a pretty non fun way to start on the fast track to healthy living You're still in your twenties so you're not really in any grave danger of heart disease or neurovascular complications right now. My suggestion would be something more moderate to ease your way into a lifestyle modification. That way it's not such a startling change. Some of the high BP, TG, LDL/VLDL, low HDL, etc can be familial but it can be modifiable as well. I'm pretty busy working 70-80 hours a week and I manage to fit this into my schedule- initially when I wanted to drop weight I would power walk for about 45 minutes every morning for a few months. Diet modification was reducing carb intake, cutting out alcohol, increasing fiber/veg/fruit intake, and reducing meat portions. I've been at ~8 +/- oz of any type of meat a week, which usually works out to eating meat twice a week. After reaching my targeted weight I switched to run/jog/run in the mornings to just try and get my heart rate as low as possible. I also go to the gym three times a week in the evenings. Good luck man! It's pretty cool that you're taking this seriously at a young age. My friends girlfriend's dad had a trip bypass in his low 50s and his only lifestyle change was switching to Bug Light from Budweiser...

Happy birthday!
