Happy day. Happy day. Happy day to you. Time comes around and it goes around; kind of like karma. If only the world would practice peace and disarma. Then we would have no queens adept in drama. So happy day and watch your ass. Because someone somewhere, just ate beans. -m

Rule 7: lol lol lol lol lol. Rule 8: Sometimes telling someone "go fuck yourself" (in whatever form it manifests) is entirely appropriate. Rule 9: Go fuck yourself.

Wonderful!!!

ouch!

Thank you for pointing that out.

Sinatra also "quit." BA will be back.

Sounds like a custom title...

That word... I don't think it means what you think it means.

Cheers Paul

At least no one has started a "What's the best Amp for the HD-800" thread yet. I admit I almost did--for shits-and-grins; but then thought five times about it. The meds must be kicking-in... -m

Didn'tchaknow you can search for specific user posts within a thread.

Ah... this was my first decent CDP. I never researched modding it, so can't help you there. Enjoy it! -m

Indeed. Charles Hansen is a regular, and outspoken, participant on Audio Asylum; just did a search there with minimal joy.

^^^ Thanks man. I'm under the impression that I need to avoid fruit and carbs. Another question or three for my class next week. -m

;D

HBD! No cake for you! (or me, for that matter).

Hopstretch, hang in there. LFF, I emphasize. Last Tuesday Doctor gave me the results: Fasting blood sugar: 177 (normal < 100) Hemoglobin A1C: 8.6 (normal < 6) Result: I have a "mild case of diabetes." So now I've started medication. Next week I'm attending an insurance-paid-for diabetes education class. The good news is doc is confident that if I drop 30 lbs or so, I can go off the medication. I'll need to stay vigilant diet-wise and monitor my blood sugar for the rest of my life. This is a wake-up call for me. Very real. I too want to eat a juicy cheeseburger. I'm going to pretend my plain oatmeal is a juicy cheeseburger. -m

Indeed.

Funny, that's what your Mom said about you.

From Ayre's web site: Highly advanced multi-stage digital filter system. First filter"upsamples" to 176.4 kHz at 24 bits. Second filter "oversamples" to 1.4112 MHz at 24 bits. I believe this happens before it reaches your DAC. Perception indeed. Switching out CDP's would have been interesting. EDIT: How would this upsampling and oversampling manifest when output via the Ayre's digital out? Don't know. Too many variables to emphatically draw a conclusion. I regret not being able to spend a couple hours with Dredhead's stuff--in a quiet room. Someday maybe. -m

Georgia... you did not mention Georgia. You simply lumped us in the "a few more" category. Shame you you.

I'm scared.

Indeed. The ring tech. brings up images of (xbox360) RROD. heh

They look like they sound like shit. Or maybe not. Maybe they look great and sound like shit. Or maybe they look like shit and sound great. Worth 1,400USD? Probably not.
