Yeezh, and yes, in reverse order.

If you can track down the early Kraftwerk, that is my favourite Krautrock. (Ralf und Florian, 1, 2, side two of Autobahn, and Tone Float by Organisaion). I do like Can, though. Never did track down all the SACDs, though.

Michelle's Granola, lemon pistachio flavored

Sounds like my kind of marinade -- those are four of my favourite ingredients.

Some of these are disturbing, be forewarned: http://gizmodo.com/an-amazon-bot-is-making-the-greatest-smartphone-cases-1796757891?utm_campaign=socialflow_io9_twitter&utm_source=io9_twitter&utm_medium=socialflow

Biscuitnote!

How is the performance? I'm fond of Concierto de Aranjuez...but not familiar with that one.

We were discussing our favourite growled vocals in one of my Fa(r)cebook groups, so I'm in the mood for a good old-fashioned unrequited love story.

So what do you think she was trying to say, "lick my glass"?

That's too bad, Shelly, but glad you found out now rather than after.

90% of what I've been listening to lately is this YouTube guy who posts whole albums, Stoned Meadow of Doom. Just subscribe, and listen when you have bandwidth. Here's a latest favourite:

Meanwhile...This fucking RAWKS. Right up there with Leprous, IMHO.

Well, Sandbag sucks. They should know that any claims against the carrier usually are carried out by the shipper, rather than the recipient. Me: Them:

Happy birthday! (party favour noise)

Happy birthday! (party favour noise)

(squints) That has to be ironic.

Wait, what? (wanders off to look up impedance of the Sony MDR-Z7 headphones...70 ohms) I wonder what the input impedance of the Pico Power is. I bet it's less than 50 ohms. I wonder if that was the main difference in what I was hearing. You know, I actually preferred it out of the Pico Power, which was probably line out. So it might be alright with the Etys.

Okay, well then you don't need my report, but I'll give it anyway -- it's good. I wouldn't say it's as good as an external DAC/Amp, as I read elsewhere, but it's a good backup to my primary player. I prefer the Sony, but it's still better than any other phone I've used. Listened to Talk Talk's The Colour of Spring, Trio Italiano's rendition of Schurbert's 2nd piano trio, Kraftwerk's Computer World, and Porcupine Tree's The Sky Moved Sideways (all on Tidal hi-fi, downloaded for offline listening aka "cached"). It definitely benefited from the Pico Power, probably because I was using my Sony MDR-Z7, which are probably hard to drive. But yeah, good choice, same one I would've -- and did -- made/make.

Noice! I hope you get it!

Okay. Yeah, I guess I should stop pushing -- really, all I meant to do was, explain that once I went off the unlimited data plan, I developed conservative data usage habits, and they're fairly ingrained at this point. Not everyone has to have the same listening habits as me.
