ESP950s

With O2s, Omegas, and ESP950s.

recently I'd guess, someone posted about it on head-fi

Gotta love it. Want to save $200 on your dac, but you go into the apple store for an 800 mac mini and walk out with a $4100 imac

the digital in is specifically useful if you have an A/D...or want to dump data from an external digital recorder without a computer interface. It's probably sufficiently weird most people wouldn't need one tho.

Yours, of course

In looking more closely at the new macbook, it appears it's also lost the optical input. There's now 1 port, a combined optical out, headphone out, analog in. It's possible you can also do digital in, but they don't talk about that on the specs page.

I don't recall the last time I saw anyone at head-case recommend the HD555, certainly not over an HD600.

Beck Sea Change MFSL cd and vinyl

ah, the old "tie a steak around her neck and at least the dogs will play with her" trick. If it takes a good car for her to be popular, she won't be popular.

express card is a mishmash of a standard anyway, cards are rarely universally compatible, they're flakey, and few people support them.

That's more than capable, but go full amarra and a uln8

Why not stick with what you have until there is a compelling upgrade? Don't buy a computer for future upgrades, it'll be cheaper to get that later. I personally always shoot for the midpoint of what's current, or a top of the line previous gen system.

Jeff, watch the credit card accounts you used with HD tracks. I read recently that there was some fraud that was believed to be tied to accounts used at HD Tracks, so they may have been compromised.

Yup, still optical, and no fw on the macbook beginner. I'd say stick with the macbook pro

aluminum is spiffier than plastic

I'd get the 13" pro if price was only somewhat relevant.

Very nice.

go with an external usb drive and firewire to your ULN2 Jeff

I'm pretty sure amarra DOES buffer everything to ram...

happy birthday!

ULN2!

my dad's old turntable (needs work) my sony ps-x500 my backup ps-x500 the ps-x45 I got at goodwill for $30

I listen to a lot of music, but the turntable is all the way across the room, so I listen to my computer audio

I have 4 turntables right now and never listen to my vinyl
