  2. Well, Squeezecenter 7.2 is out today, with support for the Boom, and judging by the Logitech Squeezebox Boom Audio Design White Paper (PDF), given the mass market cost constraints, they have put some thought into it. Bi-amped with software/digital crossovers hmm. It will be interesting to see how it sounds.

    Burning Amp!

    I've just reserved the Rec. Room for "All Day" Saturday October 18th, so that's the venue secured. We just need to decide on the format, and the synergy with Burning Amp. Only a month and a half to go ...

    Burning Amp!

    I'd second the comments of the the OP. I attended last years burning amp and had a great time. Given the its origins via diyaudio.com emphasis was on DIY, for sources, amps and speakers. There was an international contingent, and some serious effort had been expended on what was on display (including prior all-nighters to get things up and running in time - the solder was still warm on some of the equipment). The attendees were a great bunch, and a good time was had by all. The venue looks even nicer this time, having several rooms, and I won't even have to cross a bridge to get there. I put forward the idea to Voltron/Al that since it is happening on a sunday, I could host a head-case/other place related meet on the saturday, for those that were in the area, and interested in the headphone side of things, since I'm just up the road, and my apartment complex has a 600 sq ft rec room we could use for the meet. In any event the weekend should be a lot of fun.

  16. CJ, You may not appreciate it now, but you had a good day in the grand scheme of things. There will come a time when your parents are no longer around. You will miss them. You will wish you had spent more time with them when they were around. You get to keep the memories of this trip. At some point all you will have is the memories. Cherish them.
  17. Didn't you know warm air sounds better than cold air. It's also less dense, so the sound waves have an easier time traveling, and thus aren't so tired out by the time they reach your ears, and who doesn't prefer energetic sound waves to fatigued ones, or something
  18. Why does burn-in only ever improve the sound, and never make it worse? How does it know when to stop? Some cynics have argued that its just a sneaky ploy by vendors to overcome buyers remorse - keep it for a while, and you'll convince yourself you like it, especially after spending all that money on it. After all, who wants to feel foolish for spending so much on something they don't like Happy 4th.

  21. Make sure you go on the "it's a small world" ride. It will leave you with lasting musical memories
  22. Are you saying that double-blind studies have shown that expectation bias is real, to a statistically significant degree? Why, next you'll be saying that there may not be a causal correlation between sound quality and price in audio gear. And where would that leave us? The horror ...
