  1. I don't know how much this lists in terms of internal construction, but might be of some help: Joe's tube lore
  2. Happy Birthday Craig!
  3. Work here is 38 down, 22 up. Monkey must have FIOS FTMFW Birgir's is pretty impressive... must not be that much to do in Iceland
  4. Whoa! This surprised me. Never dealt with him, but seemed like a class act. RIP. Allen Wright passes
  5. Interested in what you find tonally inaccurate WRT the Stratos? I find mine to be perhaps slightly warm but really quite neutral. I have not listened to the SL amps however. To the OP: the build quality of the Stratos is nothing short of amazing, particularly considering the price point. Heavy anodized aluminum case, face panel, etc. Internally they are built very well also. I'm curious as to what effect the Extreme and Glass Ceiling variants have on the Stratos. I've been thinking of talking to Klaus to see what upgrades would run me. Mine is a Stratos Plus (basic Stratos with the 120,000uf cap upgrade). Apparently there is a new higher-end Odyssey amp out, the Kismet. Check out audiocircle for the Odyssey forum for more info Odyssey forum
  6. Apparently the member picture galleries are not supported under this software? That was a feature I really liked
  7. The previous software had member's galleries where you could store pictures. Apparently the new software does not?
  8. meh, beats 56k dial-up EDIT: 2nd run EDIT 2: both of these were using Airport Extreme to a Linksys WRT54 wireless G
  9. Yep, good luck with that Reks. If you could cut your PITA professors in half with a 33% raise, seems like win to me
  10. Happy Birthday Naaman!
  11. Looks good Wayne. When I had my beard for 20 years or so, I couldn't stand it more than maybe 1/2" long. I'd be running for the beard trimmers with yours by now Vicki, have fun at the gala. I love reading your posts...
  12. We bought a 13" MBP on CL, nearly new for $1K. Probably comparably priced to the refurbs at the Apple store, maybe a bit less. Apple Store refurbs I bought my G5 Powermac on the Apple store, refurb and have never had any problems with it (3 years?). It looked new when I got it.
  13. It appears that it trys to get new content from whatever area you are in, If you are in PMs, it tries to get new PMs, etc. It should always fetch new forum content, not be tied to the area you are currently in.
  14. I've been using the "Mark items as read" at the bottom every day or so, which helps.
  15. Maybe not in the same league (but maybe they are?) Odyssey Stratos. Like this one: My link Or if you wanted a hybrid (tube front-end), Counterpoint SA-100 or SA-220. Here is an upgraded one: My link EDIT: Odyssey is Symphonic Line RG1 IIRC
  16. If that is typical of the quality of the forum at gizmodo, it makes head-fi look inviting Bunch of whiny bitches...
  17. I always thought that 6Morons was an apt name for that site. This confirms it.
  18. I think those are the prototype through-hole files that I have. They don't match the gb board exactly. I tried contacting Jacob, but no response. I used the contact link through HC... not sure if that is a PM or email. If anyone has his email address, we could use the eagle files for both versions. Any other documentation he might have (BOM for the SMD version, etc.) would be gravy. I asked Kevin and he doesn't have them.
  19. Doesn't take much translation: buy more (new) downloads, and oh yeah, you'll need some new hardware too As far as they're concerned... win-win
  20. Gotcha. PM incoming...
  21. Happy Birthday Dan!
  22. Happy Birthday!
  23. ^ probably the best compromise if you want to be able to run either way and there isn't a more elegant solution. Once I do some listening to it, I would probably decide I liked it one way or the other anyway and tweak it for that. End of problem. The FET instability is more worrisome however. I've kinda put this down for awhile, but am interested to see what you encounter when you get a board (or more) built up and start looking at it.
  24. Interesting post from Allan Wright on diyhifi regarding the apparently religious use of the 5532/5534 in digital equipment output stages... My link
  25. No PPC Mac either. But very cool nonetheless.
