Heal quickly Shelly, and I guess the timing of your recent audio purchases were shall we say providential?

What are you drinking now, pt 2.
That's what I meant I just can't spell, and I haven't even started drinking yet. A great school and close to Paso Robles wine country no less. I like it that Colin does wine friendly cooking pics.

What would you consider Low Balling?
For me, anything greater than a 10% discount of the asking price is a lowball attempt.

Holy shit! If I bought it here I would have to pay a 100% convenience fee, may need to shop the nets or do some driving this time. Thank you for the info.

CS SLO? What would be a reasonable price for the Parker's Barrel finished? My connection has Parker's but his markup seems to be a bit much.

Well good luck then.

See perhaps you guys will start to appreciate the work we wine drinkers go through to max out the goodness of our beverages. I never would have thought brewskies needed aging perhaps you guys should consider cellering buildout options for your man caves?

Skullcandy Aviators for my son based upon Tyll's Innerfidelity review. My son won't listen to me but he listened to Tyll. All the young kids in his age group rave about the Dres and funnily enough there is a great war going on with the Skull Candy fans versus the Dre fans. None of the kids have ever heard anything else let alone done some serious listening comparisons, but that doesn't stop them, the know their phones are the bestest. I am making great progress, I just need to stop him before he discovers the Blue Hawaii and 009s.

"Hi Res" Tracks Spectrum Analysis
Agreed. There are only a few labels that I know of who use an analog source for their hi rez DLs and these are the ones I trust, MA Records, Chesky, High Definition Tape Transfers, and Linn (I think).

Mary found this while shopping for furniture. 2008 Pine Ridge Cabernet, a nice balanced blend of Cabernet, Merlot, Petite Verdot,Syrah, Malbec and Cabernet Franc. Very approachable after giving it 1-1.5 hours of breathing, what Justin used to be. Would go real well with Shelly, Mike or Al's BBQ. I suspect since the Cabernet grapes in this blend are from Napa, and this winery's more refined blends are from Stags Leap, some of the Cab grapes in this line are sourced from Stags Leap, sure seems that way. So Jeff might like to give this a try since he is rumored to like Stags Leap grape juice.

And now what did you do TODAY?
Duct or masking? Took delivery of my Alban, Colgin, Peter Michael and Kistler orders. I am now well stocked with Syrah and Pinot.

Well we have at least one in each category plus an unlisted camel/sun scorpion I found last month. We have a crap load of black widows all over the place too.

Sonic Studio 302 (aka Metric Halo ULN-2)
Ok, to provide further clarification to Shelly's question and to resolve my own confusion on this subject I spent some time reviewing my ULN-8 documentation and found no unbalanced cable diagram for the ULN-8. Dan was correct in that his diagram for the ULN-2 connectors is what MH recommends, but that diagram is in the ULN-2 pdf only. Since I found the recommendation of using a TRS connector in a unblanced cable unusual I sent Metric Halo tech support an email and this is their response "If you are connecting to a TS or RCA, you connect Tip to Center Wire Sleeve to shield And don't connect Ring to anything. We generally find that you will get less distortion if you use TRS and leave the ring unconnected (not shorted to ground). It will still work if you use a TS, but the distortion will be higher." So Shelly, TS and RCA connectors on a ULN-2 cable will work, TRS (with a floating center ring) and RCA are preferred per MH. As far as I can tell a TRS with a unconnected floating center ring is not readily available so you may need to custom order it. The second link I provided does a nice job in custom cable configuring.
