Neil Young -- Live At Massey Hall HDCD. Sounds very nice via PCM63/PMD100.

Sorry, got no relevant experience to share. Just thought I'd mention that, in that sort of speaker vein, you could also look at Tekton Design for some other options.

Woke up with a little headache. Gene must be right about the deleterious properties of frozen water!

Pffft. He has way better hair! Crystal Method -- Vegas

That would be very decent price point if they actually have completely eliminated jitter from the S/PDIF interface. Proof, pudding etc.

All your PMD are belong to Head Case?

It's not just you.

Is it wrong to be biased against Naim without any personal experience at all, just because so many annoying English wankers are so devoted to it?

Sweet! Now we can have a 63-J vs 63-K DAC off for maximum retro nerdiness.

The Cult -- Dreamtime

Chicken or fish? Chicken or fish? Chicken or fish?

Speaking of covers, that band shot is one for the ages! Moving on to: Echo & The Bunnymen -- Crocodiles

Some more that struck my ears today. XTC -- "Senses Working Overtime", "Love On A Farmboy's Wages", "Mayor Of Simpleton" Echo & The Bunnymen -- "My Kingdom" (Really, the whole flip side of Ocean Rain is pretty much perfect.)

Metro -- Metro This kicks ass. Thank Eejit.

FTFY.

OK, not anti-gravity, but the motor does drive the platter without being physically connected to it in any way.

Stay. Off. Audiogon. Stretch. You. Fucking. Jagbag. Oh, I'm going to be in so much trouble if the Mrs. takes inventory.

Please tell me they suck!

Hot DAC on DAC action is also shock for me, Nursultan Tulyakbay. I am have envy!

Metallica -- And Justice For All

As one minimalist to another...

The Doors -- Morrison Hotel

I don't use the HF-2s very often, because I'm well acclimated to the HD800s. But, every so often, something really just doesn't sound right out of the Senns. Tonight it was the AF Gold of "Morrison Hotel". Much better on Grados. Glad I have them.

Happy Birthday Jim!
