spritzer

A Olympus E-P1 with the stock 17mm and an extra 14-42mm lens. I friend gave me a good deal and it is a neat little camera.

I'd rather just have the RK50 though.

...and when has that ever stopped us?

Thanks for the kind words. No cake for me today but my mom is going to bake pancakes for me soon.

Happy Birthday my fellow Baker boy.

I wouldn't blame the AKM dacs for that. A lot of this stuff is designed around sub par parts just because these are the ones you are "supposed" to use. One of the many reasons why I'd never buy an Esoteric anything...

Yup, that's just the full name.

That's exactly what I was going to recommend. Pass recommends the CL60 unit for the Firstwatt amps.

If it is a Nakamichi Dragon then that wouldn't be a bad source at all...

No idea, I was just commenting on that they could probably be bought. Then I saw your post and made the edit.

CMC Audio doesn't list the pins on their website but I'm sure they could be bought in bulk. Edit: it's been taken care of. As for the 2SA1968, when the notice came that it was EOL'd some of us bought ample stocks... The 10M90 is a fine alternative though but sourcing it outside of the US is a bit of a pain.

Get the ESL57 off the floor and you'll be in for a treat. It's a bit amazing just how good the ESL really are given their age and all the hype. Now I'm all nostalgic and I'm going to reach for the Stax SR-1's...

Happy Birthday Greg!!!

It's moar better with the boards attached with double sided tape and no earth...

Couldn't care less about this DAC but if these people are going to rape my heritage why the fuck can't they spell it properly?

When I get my 009 they will be compared...

I feel a challenge coming on, cram a KGSSHV into a single chassis....

I added a couple of on board HV sets to increase the numbers.

I'm in for 4 KGSSHV sets and two Dynahi's.

Happy Birthday Scott!!

Happy birthday buddy!!!

I just enlarged the hole with a 8mm drill. I'll have to redo them since I can only get 6mm shafts here and it just makes a lot more sense to use a 8mm shaft. Speaking of my amp, I got new pots but the right channel is still fubar. Anybody whose dealt with loktal tubes knows this sound so the tube sockets are at the top of my suspect list.

No BG's but my M3 will have a wallwart...

Happy Birthday!!!

More stuff from Danny is always welcome. Now tell him to get cracking on a Stax amp...
