For you direct-out fans: the new dCS P8i has (a) balanced outs; ( volume control; © balance control; and (d) voltage control (this is somehow different from volume control, I think). I read the new Stereophile review. I am expecting one of you direct-out knuckleheads to be trying this, soon. C'mon, take one for the team, it's only US$14K.

I asked this question over on H**d-Fi, but I don't know if you saw it -- what particular tube complement did you use to drive the K1000? (And, if you remember my miniscule tube collection) do I have something that can drive the K1000 adequately, do you think? I'll relist my Wheatfield tube collection later, for reference (am at work right now).

Very much like a "time out".

You mean, girlcase? Girlheadcase? Perhaps we should rename this place sausage-fest-fi.

Yeah, but on the other hand, www.audiocircle.com has all sorts of participation from manufacturers.

Artist: Madeleine Peyroux Album: Careless Love File Under: jazz, easy listening Recommended For Fans Of: Billie Holiday, Diana Krall Artist Website: madeleinepeyroux.com Sample Listen: artist website Music Best For: pretending you're a fan of Billie Holiday Reviews: google for it My Thoughts: I don't typically like this genre of music, but something about Madeleine Peyroux really struck something...I don't know, listen for yourself, judge for yourself

I like this suggestion a lot, and would like to take it one step further -- open shilling. For example, I'm a big Beyer fan, I could post in the open shilling/manufacturer forum about the new "Manufactory" site, and I could do so in there without worrying about being labelled as a street teamer, since I already am admitting to doing so, just by posting in the forum. Would that be okay? Or do we only want "official" members of the company posting in that forum?

Hey, I was just trying to remember that URL -- do you know how to use archive.org? I was trying to find my post about starting the "Sorry about your wallet" expression...I think the subject was something like "new greeting".

Don't think of it as being a "lightweight", think of it as being an "efficient drinker" -- you can accomplish more with less. At least, that's what I keep telling myself. (I can't drink like I used to anymore, neither.)

They should tour together and call it the goatsex tour.

Begs the question, what do you get when you cross and

You lost to a girl (laughs and points)

The word 'inundated' comes to mind. As does the word, 'inanity'. Actually, so does 'defenestration'. And so does 'tadpole', but I have no idea where that last one came from.

We are all individuals.

And what about poor little ol' schwa?

He should diversify his pretzel consumption.

The Q and 'pretzel' are redundant options. They should be merged. In my stomache.

Okay, we're talking about different limits. I'll have to go back and check, but I think there's also a limit on the amount of money you can accept...as in, without getting your account frozen, or automatically turned into a commercial account.

Howdy Doody Time?

Coulda been worse -- coulda had your shirt stolen off your back. Sorry, someone had to make the obvious joke about gambling and stealing.

This thread > that other thread. LMIEMO

They're ridiculously good. But they're also unlike anything else around. I mean, what the L is the target market for that thing? You can't exercise with them -- sweat and electrostatics(!). I guess entry level electrostatics is the target market for them. Portable hi-fi sound, too. Yet not closed.

Vai definitely has a wonderful stage presence -- I've seen him live several times.
