The Headcase Stax thread
Did you match the JFETs at all? You may want to do that and run (as close to as possible) the same as possible. 6? I understand 4 (stereo, +/-) and 8 (fully differential), but not 6 (fully differential on the hot, common ground?). Someone who knows more about this shit please post, I know P. Diddy Squat about EE.

Zero days for defenestration.

Comcast Xfinity Streampix...
I am not familiar with Streampix, will have to look into it. That said, I would guess that you need a browser, basically, so either a smart TV if that's what you have, or the PS3.

Ye Macce Threade
I'm not big guy, but I think he already answered your question, the problem is one of terminology -- they call themselves 'geniuses'! Pfff...that's the mistake right der.

What are you listening to Part the Third
Halcide (with No?), Lazarus -- just as good, if not more Deviant Current Signal -- meh. Pretty sure Brent's girl Zoe/Chloe?/I can never remember this shit...can do better on vocals. The rest is slightly better. Don't have high hopes for Amoeba.

What are you listening to Part the Third
Hacride, Back to Where You've Never Been -- you know how sometimes you can just look at an album cover, and there's a promise there? I've been burned. I've seen albums that looked like they promised a certain kind of music and delivered something else entirely. Imagine if This is Spinal Tap (aka the black album) had a full album of "Listen (Sh!) to the Flower People". This one, however... ...yup, pretty much get what you expect -- proggy metal, almost technical (not quite Cynic technical, but lots of Helmet-y stop starty swagger), with extreme vocals. I have no idea what they're singing about, but compared to most death metal that I've heard, it's almost distinguishable. (Think Gojira. Or think Sam Kinison.) Dig!

Is the remaster better?
It's the Italian Black Sabbath tribute band.

Emotiva Stealth DC-1
Batman does not listen to music, much less on headphones -- it would prevent him from hearing Alfred sneaking up on him.

Emotiva Stealth DC-1
I saw its existence, that's about all I can say. If I had the dosh, it'd be worth trying.

Buying Tickets To Popular Bands Is A Bag Of Crap!
What often happens is, the touring company release the space that they will take up with speakers, mixing desk, lighting, and the venue can then release any seats that aren't blocked. The final doesn't usually get released until just before the show -- sometimes at the beginning of the tour, sometimes the night before, etc. I've had good luck with that too, but it has to be a show I don't care if I miss or not, because sometimes everyone else knows this too, depending on their popularity on BBs, etc.

Hey hey hey not everyone's part translates to acoustic. He's probably the drummer or the synthesist. No seriously, that appears to be Ulf. (I was right, synthesist.)

Google Android OS
Yeah, don't hold your breath. I mean, not unless you can hold it for two weeks. The dock has been in stock more than not ever since a couple months after all our promotions expired.

What are you EATING right now?
Sounds delicious, Colin.

Google Android OS
Yeah. But I noticed an oddity today -- I plugged in a HRT MusicStreamer II, and it didn't work, even though it saw a USB device connected. Rebooted the phone and it worked (I knew it worked because it had worked before). So it may not just be a matter of plugging it in. I've seen multiple reports that USB Audio Recorder Pro will work in cases that stock software and UI will not.
