Jesus, did it really?!?!?

Moving to Monitors
I know people don't appreciate Musical Fidelity around here, but I wouldn't rule out A3^CR/A3.2/A300/A308/A5/etc. And no, that's not from experience from M2's, just good general purpose solid state amps, just based on PSB's reputation (I haven't heard that they are particularly hard to drive).

multiple URL's?
I noticed that, for example, when someone posts multiple URL's to a site -- say, audiogon, in the forsale elsewhere thread -- that only the first one gets modified to the title of that page -- I'm wondering if that's a plug-in, and if there's an update to that plug-in, so that it grabs all of them, not just the first one? Or if it can otherwise be fixed? Might cause a performance issue, but since it's only once on post, I'm thinking that would be okay.

Must be the current issue that just came out (I haven't been to my PO box since Thursday).- What are you EATING right now?

Clip? That's kind of bizarre. Wouldn't mind hearing the diagnosis, once it is discovered. Please. Shit, man, don't give them ideas. There are things in life that cannot be unseen.- slow forum

LOL @ "...dufggeh made a am ess..."- slow forum
I kinda dig that contrast.- TAS on USB audio
"Sounds bad", he says.- Signal path, gain and/or volume?
The suggestion was to just snip the attenuator out of the circuit, then solder the two ends together, that's all.- Computer Audio Recommendations
I have neither good nor bad things to say about Edirol -- looking at portable recorders, I'm not ruling out the Edirol for myself, whatever that tells you.- slow forum
It's a rickroll isn't it? She has a penis? WAT?!?- TAS on USB audio
(a) I don't think so; ( the question still holds -- WTF, dude, share! Fucking hoarders...- Computer Audio Recommendations
Except that it didn't go to 192, I don't think. Other than that, the Mini-Me with the USB option would have been perfect.- Signal path, gain and/or volume?
That's a good point about noise -- I actually had to "gain stage" my Mac/Duet/Singlepower amp in order to reduce distortion (I.E. the Duet was running too hot for the singlepower). Another thing to try is to turn both up to full and see if you can hear any noise by pressing your ear up against the speaker (be careful not to accidentally play anything while doing this). Then turn one down and then the other to see which has a bigger contribution to the noise floor.- Definitive list of Sennheiser headphones with "those" connectors?
I have, that's why I'm asking.- Signal path, gain and/or volume?
Well, if it sounds the same with pre at max vs. with the speakers at max (and then volume matched in both cases), then I wouldn't worry about it. Remind me -- what's the setup? I'd say, set it so that it's easier to adjust the level on the one that's easier. (My quad 12L's are rather difficult to adjust -- I think I am going to take the advice to mod them to bypass their volume control, and then put a "real pre" in front of them.)- Mayberry by the Sea 09 aka DanJam 09!
Wait...didn't you order a pair of the customs? Or were you waiting to hear a pair of the universals?- Signal path, gain and/or volume?
Impedance match. Yeah yeah, I know, easier said than done, but I've been able to do it by ear, so it's not impossible. (Admittedly -- not in as complex a scenario as you have -- in my case, it was simply raising the level on the mixer [as a pre], and lowering the input sensitivity on active monitors.)- What are you listening to Part Two
Oo-oo, I need to hear. Wait, what if I loved their last album? - Ayre USB DAC
