Jenny Owen Youngs -- Batten The Hatches

I kinda had to know if it had random bits of point-to-point wiring inside. Ayre is in Colorado, thought maybe Charles Hansen went Mikhail!

Better?

Must have been a (very) early prototype. The real McCoy doesn't look anything like that inside. Phew. Crappy pictures to follow.

Marillion -- Script For A Jester's Tear

No idea. The pictures were in an Audio Asylum thread. Guess now I have a reason to open mine.

Martin Sexton -- The American Such a good album. Ustjay utpay tiay niay hetay oxbay.

Found these knocking around the Web. First I've seen of the insides as I've not opened mine.

My Morning Jacket -- Z

Ran a little errand to drop something off and pick something up. Running a Chatham 5998 and Tung Sol 6SN7GT. Sounds pretty darn good and, as you can see from the position of the volume pot, doesn't want for powah!

The Human League -- The Very Best Of Funny story. My wife and I once did an epic, drunken karaoke duet of "Don't You Want Me" in a Key West bar in the middle of Bike Week. Large, bearded people threw bottles. It's a miracle we weren't both raped and killed. The performance practically demanded it.

Those two are really a toss-up. The Denon has a new Anchor Bay video scaler (ABT1030) that is a somewhat unknown quantity at this point, but based on the performance of that chip's big brother, the ABT2010, (which is in your Oppo) it shouldn't give up much if anything in quality to the Faroudja solution in the Onkyo. One clear edge the Denon has is its room EQ capacity. It has Audyssey MultEQ, which has twice the filter resolution of the 2EQ included in the Onkyo. 2EQ also has no subwoofer correction capability. Either will do you fine, though.

Massive Attack vs. Mad Professor -- No Protection

He had an associate take it for him.

Neil Young & Crazy Horse -- Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere

Plus, it would probably make more sense to promote the core Head-Fi brand to a completely new audience rather than the ancillary CanJam one. "Head-Fi at RMAF". Done.

I'd agree with that.

Yeah. Wanna know how wet it is in New England? Look at this poor little bugger I just found trying to shelter under an eave outside my office door.

Quotation marks typically enclose direct quotes from a third party, in this case you. I believe this convention is occasionally observed even outside of H-C.

Cursed the bloody weather! It rained 22 days out of 30 in June this year and is, of course, absolutely pissing down outside as I write this. Apparently, the blame lies with an unusually-persistent high pressure system camping in the region of Nova Scotia, which is pushing the Jet Stream far south of it's usual summer course. Can it be a coincidence that this anomaly developed right after a certain Australian DIYer moved to Halifax? I think not.

SACD > CD. Who'da trunk it?
