  1. I figure a week to two weeks to get there and another two after that to get back here. I am going to see if they can just cross ship me a new one. I think that is the first piece of consumer electronics like that I have bought that has been DOA. Did a bit of googling and it seems others have had DOA receivers. Anyone try the touch/iphone ap for controlling their SB? Edit: If I can just control a receiver with Ipeng I might just purchase a receiver and Ipod touch. 64GB FTW.
  2. Just received my Squeezebox Duet that I have been waiting two weeks for. It appears the receiver is DOA. The light on the front doesn't light up. It appears everything on the powersupply side works fine. Guess I have to ship it all back and wait a month for a replacement
  3. To close to shore. I think it's Nessie
  4. Box each of: Partagas Series D No. 4 Rockey Patel Decade Torpedo I'm going to need a bigger humidor before too long
  5. Four words. Rocky. Mountain. Audio. Fest. Rocky Mountain Audiofest 2008 The best of the best and everything in between will be there. Plan on spending the weekend listening to everything. I would think after that you should have a good feeling for what you like. There are some pretty good stores in the Denver area. For Paradigm, I don't know about Denver but there is The Stereo Shop in the Springs. Dealt with them before and they are some pretty good guys.
  6. If you can get in on the feeding frenzy and have the ability or find someone to build it for you, I think the TP Buffalo would fit the bill nicely. Plus it could also be made balanced so you wouldn't have to upgrade in the future.
  7. Yes as long as the hooch is in a plastic container and less than three ounce. You can bring as many that can fit in a zip-lock bag. For the machine gun as long as it's in a locked container and checked. You could also try for the rectal cavity method but YRMV. On a side note when we fly over here and back we are all armed, most with a carbine and side arm. But they won't let us have knives. Go figure.
  8. I hope it was already split. I remember the one year my parents cheaped out and bought un-split logs. Nothing like spending the summer making large pieces of wood into smaller ones.
  9. Thanks for the offer Nate. I will give it a whirl with that parts I currently have sitting around and if I can't get it with-in the .1V I will drop you a PM. Edit: It's a Duet so it needs a 9v zener.
  10. Parts to make a σ11 power supply for my inbound Squeezebox.
  11. It sounds very good but do to the fact it's a truck, it will never be a two seat car. I much prefer to listen to music in my car than in my house. But then again I need to seriously upgrade my house set-up. Getting rid of all the resonance and vibrations definitely is a large part of getting it to sound good. Speaker placement also plays a large amount into it. Great speakers in a crappy location will sound like crap. You also need a good crossover/eq to fix things that placement/enclosure design can not. I think that's part of the reason I like it because it's a real challenge to get things right.
  12. Any one else here into car audio? This is a little install I did about two years ago. I plan to change it up a bit when I get back and maybe compete a little more. 2007 Tahoe install - MP3Car.com
  13. I definitely plan on building one (or five) but how crazy I am going to go is undecided. I am starting to pick up Solidworks (don't think I will ever be a master) and would like to design a custom case for it. But like all things time and money are a factor.
  14. No $20,000 cables here. I think three would be good to start with for all the main channels, then go from there.
  15. Looks like more of my money will be going to AMB. Still waiting on the B24 to be released so I can build 5 for my home theater:eek:
  16. Oh I don't really know where to go with this one. Being Jewish and German I could go either way......
  17. Or flies a "State of the art" military aircraft everyday:rolleyes:
  18. Probably. Maybe someone can find an NSN for it and I can get a hold of a spool.
  19. If you were up for a little DIY you could build a USB Opus with a Metronome ASRC board for around $300. Would also give you the option to upgrade to a full balanced DAC in the future by just adding boards.
