He has a ways to go to catch Earl. But he seems to be gaining!

Tri-tip burrito from the Chicken Ranch.

I think that used is the way to go. I have $1900 in my eXemplar 2900. If I had bought it new and then had eXemplar modify it, it would have been about $5500. I'd be shocked if he wouldn't. When my 2900 needed repair, he immediately wanted my to ship it to him. There was no hesitation whatsoever. The fix eventually was going to be $50, but he waived that because I had them do more mods.

If you'll pay shipping, I'll send it along to you then.

Replacement shower head. One of the plastic spray control buttons popped out and all we get is a stream of water from the large hole.

That's why we call them "boxes".

Doesn't Ray use Meridian's in all his rigs? That's why I posted it. I wasn't being serious, either to Meridian or RSA for that matter. Meridian's biggest problem seems to be cutting edge prices on their less than cutting edge products.

Still trying to work off my debt.

I bought my eXemplar 2900 used. When it arrived, there was a problem with the drive/display circuit. I sent the box to eXemplar for repair. While there, I added two mods that brought it up to the "fully modded" state. As I remember, I was without it for about 3 weeks. Communication was good during the time and, because I bought addition mods, the repair was free. No matter which way you choose to go, you'll get a much larger bang for the buck by buying used. Edit: I just remembered that eXemplar has a dealer network. They may have something ready to ship. Call John Tucker@eXemplar to find the dealers selling his products and then contact them.

At least two were deleted. Nenso, look at Nate's post where he said that it will be harder for the guy to troll because he (Nate) was deleting his posts. It's the next one under the post of mine that you quoted.

Nope. This was in response to another user. His messages have since been deleted. Relax a bit.

Much harder!

No chance of a pipe but good chance of scotch. Though at MOA, a glass of beer was more likely. OK, some small chance of a pipe.

I have an eXemplar modified Denon 2900. I think that it's a great deck for Redbook CDs and ok for SACD and DVD-A. Mine is only single-ended, not balanced. eXemplar does a balance mod and they can either add it to an existing single-ended eXemplar or as part of a general mod. I suggest checking eXemplar out if you can.

Don't feed the troll and he'll go away.

I know of several NSESBs that need one of those.

MOA was a great meet, the best I've ever attended. The pictures were great too, except for this one of an old man with a pot belly listening to music in a corner:

Calva, calva, calva!

Dan, your flexy looks great. Can you please tell me where you sourced the black rods and hardware? Also, did you use neoprene (or other rubber) washers as suggested at TNT?

You'd sleep through it anyway.

Just make the 4 pin to 1/4 and buy a Sennheiser 1/4 to 1/8 adapter. It's a tiny cable and you are less likely to lose it than a screw on adapter. Or make your own. For the price it's really easier to just buy the Sennheiser.

I see that 4n6 has a prayer rug before the altar of equipment just like Reks.

Nice pictures. I especially like to two sailplane shots. It reminds me of my time spent with the Greater Boston Soaring Club in the early 80's. I always lusted after an LS-4 but could never afford one.
