A Game of Thrones Pilot Greenlit
Although this season is moving WAAY too fast, last night’s episode s8e3 did not disappoint! At least what I could see of it I’m going to miss this show when it ends, but have started watching it again from the beginning. I’ll be interested to see if the prequel gets going or not... hope so!

Those sound interesting Jacob... I'll have to try to hear them sometime. Probably could have at Axpona had I known about them.

Songs You Came Across On Some Streaming Service And Thought Your Head-Case Buds Might Enjoy Too. No Critical Endorsement Implied. Fuck Vevo etc.
Ran across these guys on an alternative station here in Chicago last night while driving. Actors, a Vancouver band... me likey... rather '80s-iish

And now what did you do TODAY?
Wow! A B24 (J?). How was it?

and now for something completely different part 3
UBAL board (unbalanced to balanced) for the front end.

KG Balanced Dynahi build discussion thread
1) You should be able to, but I don't have a sim to measure power dissipation in these. Since they are only used as drivers (and not as the outputs as in the SS Dynalo) I think you should be OK. I thought you said you had these? 2) Yes. The MJF is an isolated package, so you can bolt straight to the heatsink. It is rated at 36W vs. 50W for the MJE (with metal tab). I think they are the same die, just package difference.

Those fuckers actually grab Kevin's gerbers... nice.

KG Balanced Dynahi build discussion thread
I just checked, couldn't find them, and then remembered that I sold them to another user (anorphirith) about a year ago. They were v1.5 boards. Sorry! I do still have a pair of the originals (2004), but that would be single-ended and not SuSy. You might check with Steve (sbeylo) and see if he has any left over?

KG Balanced Dynahi build discussion thread
Not sure on board versions, and will have to wait until I am home to check. Not sure that I would build an older version either, even with the parts. I presume the newer versions are also supersymmetry? The real old original versions weren’t really set up as balanced as they used (1) 2Sj109 and 2SK389 per channel (so 4 pair total for balanced), which essentially wasted 2 pair. I think I have a pair of boards at home that I won’t be using. I’ll check tonight. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

HeadAmp Gilmore Lite mk2 Headphone Amp
I wasn't really in listening mode yesterday at Axpona, but did listen to both an Aeon and an Ether 2 from the GS-X mini, and it sounded good. I still didn't care for the Aeon but liked the Ether 2, and the GS-X mini seemed to drive it really well.

Burson Audio V5i opamps
The cap is probably the erroneous V+ to V-... Yours doesn't have all the magical components touted in the marketing hype?

The Multi Amp aka Dynalo Mk2
I could consider it. I don't have any cases, so would have to have one made. If you wanted the TKD version, I would have to get a board and the TKD pot as well. As well as all of the other parts (not a problem), so not cheap. What if you don't like it?

No. Snake oil.

The Multi Amp aka Dynalo Mk2
Not being able to build one yourself is a problem. As for one already built, they rarely, if ever, come up for sale. Commercially, the closest thing(s) to it are Headamp Gilmore Lite or Justin's new Headamp GSX Mini Balanced. Note that the Gilmore Lite is single-ended only.

Raal Requisite SR1a
Where are you seeing the reversed plugs at? Or is this because of the 0.2ohm impedance (without the box)?

So no drill bit recommendations from Shars (catalog link in previous post)? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Technical Assistance/Advice Thread
I (or actually, my wife) picked one of these up for me on Friday. I also got a set of drill bits from them (https://www.shars.com/media/flip/2018master/mobile/index.html#p=2) the 404-2201, which I am thinking I should have gotten some better ones, maybe one of the cobalt ones, or at least the HSS 6542. Any recommendations from what you see there? I probably also don't need anything larger than 3/8", so dropping down to a 22 piece set shouldn't be an issue. I haven't used either yet.

Well, I feel the ban stick coming. Posted on HF regarding the FCC Part 15 not being applicable. Also called jamato8 out as a known shill from years ago...

I presume this is kosher; not a personal email. Not even sure why I got this... I bought a pair of Massdrop HE4XXs... oh wait, I think I did buy a pair of IEMs direct (and returned them)...
