  1. Walking Dead has been pretty good this season. I think I am going to fall behind on my F1 watching :'( People are only posting super high res HD (7+ gb) torrents for pre-qualifying/races. I used to love watching them live on TV when I lived in Europe, but it doesn't feel the same watching recorded sports. Sad that Don't Trust the Bitch in Apt 23 is getting cancelled.
  2. I will be on. Our resident poof would disagree with you wrt to LFD2
  3. Sure send it, unless there is someone from our KF crew that doesn't have it. I'll def. play tonight but I am probably only a once a week'er I would also be down for LFD2
  4. I'll play NR with you guys tonight. If you have a copy cool, if not don't worry about it. It will have to be after 10 pm est btw, good kind of brown spice > bad kind of brown (MD aka Richard Hammond hating type) spice edit: re-read your post, I am pretty sure I don't own this game. Can't log into Steam to check though.
  5. Maybe to conteract the effect of the reversed ALO cable wiring

    Deals

    Weird, another vendor made the same mistake three years ago, same Peerless wall mount thingy was sent http://forum.synology.com/enu/viewtopic.php?f=152&t=19557 Surprisingly no Slickdeals thread of raging angry posts from people that bought 5 each.

    Happy birthday Al!
  8. Scratching on a $100000 turntable
  9. Pad condition make a huge difference wrt to sound. The fully squished pad one is my favorite, sounds direct, no upper mid sink.
  10. I suppose I will be tuning in to cheer for Button amidst you Ferrari loonies
  11. What tweeter is the OB Lowthers using? Oh man, tape plus SITs delicious!
  12. I think it has been said somewhere else that with 0.01% resistors it's not even getting close to 14 bit resolution.
  13. I think I will go DAC IV something or another when MSB comes out with the DAC V I heard the base model one at an NH dealer and it was reGronkulous
  14. Wishing everyone good luck in their fight to lose weight. There is probably a list as long as my arm of things that can go away/be minimized with weight loss. A few minor things that helped me, all fairly easy things that didn't require major diet modification -cut out all soda; even drinking diet may not necessarily cause you to gain weight (though it can), but it can be harder to lose weight when your body senses something sweet insulin levels are increased following the sweet rush (two ways insulin is stimulated 1) higher blood sugar levels 2) a hormone GIP released in the stomach. Sweet soda stimulates the latter). Replaced with coffee (2 cups per day max for me). If you're drinking soda for the caffeine it barely has any. -use the stairs. My workplace is the size of small village and I would use the stairs all the time, even going from first floor to 10th floor if I was by myself or with people that didn't mind doing it -stopped having that one or two beers occasionally after work. Just stuck to drinking socially.
  15. Actually if you count the pre-HV bike thread, more like 5 or 6 years Justin the VPP suspension is really good for light trail riding, it's pretty stiff under normal pedaling without any bumps
  16. 2 cm isn't a big difference, but it could have contributed; I have no idea what that extra travel translates to in head tube angle. I think the LT's I have ridden were 150 up front, but I just realized the frame geometries on those are different from the regular TB's and head angle is 1.5 degrees slacker so my previous post probably doesn't apply to anything Usually when I've found bikes to not fit me it's top tube length and seat tube length that are the big contributors. If it was the fork travel issue (other thing I can think of is stem length), 120 forks can be dropped down to 100.
  17. Do you ride a medium Tallboy? IIRC Santa Cruz's smallest size? I think Brent said the sizing on those was a bit weird. I've only ridden the LT version and the medium fit me (5'8" more torso than legs)
  18. If anyone listens to the Daedalus speakers, can you post your impressions? (website says they are on the 9th floor in the King Exhibit room)
  19. Hi Frank, the 4p1l push pull amp by Pieter should be ok for Sennheisers as well which are highly sensitive. Not sure about the sensitivities of other companies, I am in the Senn/Stax camp
  20. John what internet service do you use for sports and is it in HD? Hockey/NFL/college football/F1 are the only real reasons I keep cable
  21. That makes sense, if you have the means to do it. It's an arduous process and I'm guessing most audiophiles are re-buying into DSD with the promise of DSD downloads catching on. Even in that seminar there was an argument of 64fs vs 128fs vs 256fs. It's really a headache when SACD DSD is 64fs and what current downloads are being offered as. And people are already claiming the superiority of the other two. So how many times do they want you to rebuy these downloads whenever a higher DSD multiplier rate comes out? Anyway just my rambling opinion
  22. What is there for DSD source material, just Blue Coast Recordings? I'm not sure I understand this DSD come back given how high res PCM has finally somewhat caught on in an already miniscule market segment. It's like Blu-ray vs HDDVD all over again except with less than 1% of the population as the target. I watched an hour long RMAF seminar on Youtube on how DSD is better than PCM. I don't even know why :/
  23. Time for a 5 year necro bump Posted on diyaudio, no pot/resistive volume control, uses the secondaries off the Tribute OPT to step down voltage pietertributehp.pdf
