It looks weird without the racing stripe Looks like you missed out on a great rig tho, with the tooleaudio balanced mosfet amp...

Nice setup mr bread.

The lavry has a custom usb receiver chip. A significant cost for the producer, much like custom drivers.

It could be possible, but that would be illogical. 44/16 is standard for usb audio, and doing more requires custom drivers at the very least. Very few dacs are limited to 44/16 over spdif (coax or optical)

I think it's theoretically possible to send 192 over optical. The trick would be finding 1) 192k source files, and 2) a transport that supports that.

I don't think you get this place as well as you think you do.

For me, the ESW10 is more impressive if you're in a quiet environment, listening for a while. Like most good headphones, there's subtlety there.

I'm now 2/2, go gonzaga!

To be honest, I prefer the balancing act to that s2a3 for looks alone.

It's an esthetic. Bakelite knobs are cool.

that's what I like about it

It's my favorite of his designs

Leica M8 Review

I'll throw it up on my me.com shortly

I'm 1/1 so far on my bracket. Go zags!

heh

happy birthday

Happy birthday Al!

If she can reach the drivers or the ports, you have to worry

utilizing one of these?

Al, for anyone else, I'd say it's a good economical choice. But I know you have really high standards. I wouldn't be willing to bet the korg is better than the duet, for example.

It comes with software to offload the files. But you're still stuck with nearly useless files. DSD is awfully niche. The conversion software is apparently ok. But I'd still think what dotu is shooting for is higher end than this.

The MR1 is a cool little box, but then you have to convert it to pcm (96/24, 192/24, or whatever). And the adc abd dac aren't gonna be on a par with what dotu is shopping for.

Does this really have to be the place you guys slag the pope?
