rather bold move my friend

deepak: I believe they are used as a series pass element configured as cathode follower

yeah, i cannot wait until they allow multiple exchange accounts without jailbreaking (4.0).

Enjoy the sweet, sweet muzak?

The VK-600se is something I don't have much experience with. From what (little) I know, it's similar to the Ayre in that it doesn't use any negative feedback (in the traditional sense). However, that's pretty much where the similarities stop I'd suspect. The BAT doesn't use a complimentary output stage, but is it class A design? I'm not sure I believe it is, or it slides into AB really early. Is it DC coupled? Traditionally, BAT power amps aren't (have to upcharge for fancy rebranded Jensen caps, right?).. not that these two things really matter in some senses, but perhaps you might care..

I've never liked the BAT solid state amps having owned two, but perhaps your ears tell you different. Any reason that you're not considering the '5 series Ayre amp? I'm not sure I could tell the difference between it in and the 1 series and seems to be within your price range..

yeah, sorry for the confusion. Point being, my Canon G9 macro works better than the Panasonic, and I'm assuming this is due to the lens I'm using on the latter.

cool. If they are anything like the 2709m, get ready to turn the brightness WAAYY down...

pffft.. no finger? unzip; strip; touch; finger; mount; fsck; more; yes; unmount; sleep

Even Apple employees cannot get their discount.

well f me. The shuffle doesn't have a non-inline volume control? So now, I have the choice of too short of a cable with my iphone or using a shuffle clipped to my lapel that doesn't have a volume control. So far the default volume is okay (I notice there is some sort of slider in itunes) but man, I feel like a fail magnet today.

yup, it's been doing that for a while, I notified them. Be careful when navigating their site.

mac mini refresh anyone?

two ipad related fails today. first, I assumed that I could get my standard corporate discount on the ipad. nope second, I assumed that I could walk in the store and buy one. nope

I'd check out the HP 2709m. That's what I went with and am thrilled. I might have a chance to compare side-by-side with the Apple Display, but unless is flashes up subliminal porn out-of-the-box I'm not sure I could justify the cost. If I was interested in a calibrated display, I might consider it, but I'm not, so...

<snarky coment>I guess because computers are being used, there isn't any need to charge back for any of the time you spend using them for such a purpose</snarky coment>

nope, this one: The Enyo Silver Upgrade/Custom Cable for Ultimate Ears (Black) [Enyo_Black] - S$96.60 : Null Audio Studio, Where everything is purely handmade $77 shipped. I cannot tell crap from those UE pics, and I'm not about to post a question relating to this on HF.....

I've been borrowing a friend's Panasonic DMC-G1 with 14-45 lens. Unfortunately, the macro capabilities leave a lot to be desired. If I end up making a deal with him, I'd like to pick up a decent close quarters lens that wouldn't break the bank. Any recommendations?

ok, well, looking for the cheapest possible cable that has four wires all the way down to the plug. In searching for such an item, I lost 30 minutes of my life I can now never get back. Wow, I feel much more stupid now. Looks like Null Audio has something that might work for cheap. Suck-It-ALO JH cable search turned up nothing unfortunately

Perhaps *639# ?

Cool, lemme know!

Won't that constrict the bass? And extension with a RA plug is kinda fail... Oh well, off to see what rat shack has...

Ffffffuuuuuu... Why don't they measure the cable from the split like I would have done I were them.. Anyone need the smallest cable size?

What if they only sell one? What's their profit margin then?
