  1. I quoted your original post there to try, didn't try the original canjam post. I managed to catch the pic where I think GPH or someone fixed it there though.
  2. Seems like it has to be a prank on me... Its not that its not showing up, there is no code link to the picture in the code. I can't see how the picture would affect the code itself.

    There are some good songs in there. Love Ra Ra Riot. Thanks!
  4. Thats awesome! Its a dream I've wanted to make happen for my dad too, it is great to hear it worked out so well. Just don't let him hear your gear now.
  5. Optimize XP Follow these tips, you'll be close to golden.
  6. I've never had a turning block sealed in wax that was dried yet, I wish. I am wary of waiting for anything dry in sawdust for a month and the baking/microwave tricks are touchy too it seems. Good luck Smeg! My turning skills are weak, but low on my list of things to improve right now.
  7. It seems like it can do many things, such as control the Volumite, rotary encoders, filters on DAC, Darwin, a Display, or any other device that is programmed into the firmware that can be controlled by i2c. It also will use a remote control. So, yeah, like an Uber controller for the TPA DACs and devices. I don't think its a replacement Darwin, just a controller that accepts easy to update firmware to control many devices with a remote control. It was originally designed for the Joshua Tree Attenuator and I think is going through updates so much and firmware work that I don't see it coming out for a while.
  8. I have two of the SKA audio kits that I want to use with the Aikido.
  9. That'd be nice.
  10. Happy Birthday! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MAm9aUToT8&fmt=18
  11. Amen, I wouldn't want to pay extra for the headphones. I wouldn't mind knowing what they expect for people with their own STAX, this is definitely interesting. I'd have to try it first and save for a while, but reports are pretty awesome so far.
  12. Here is what it said, looks like they want you to share the ground between them. Now I wonder what I should do if I put my OPUS and Buffalo in the same enclosure and share the ground which is what I plan to do. Would that cause a ground loop? Hoping that a single star ground will be fine.
  13. Believe me, he didn't. I'm not sure Asians are alone in not seeking mental services.
  14. Happy Birthday, I dedicate the drink I have now to you.
  15. Just heard the news about ten minutes ago, feel for those involved. It seems so crazy that it feels like it could have happened anywhere. I really hope to hear good news about those recovering and that this ends soon with no more tragedies, best case being that along with the shooter getting his own bullets put in his gut.

    that was quick.
  17. photobucket and flickr are blocked at work for me, even though I use photobucket. No point in not using anything else, if another host were to get popular, that would probably get blocked too. Personally, I like flickr better these days as I don't trust photobucket not to use my pictures as there own advertisements or pay attention to content and management features enough, not to mention its a little unorganized.
  18. I thought the same thing. Sony MDR-XB series (XB for extra bass ), but the bass is said to not be completely horrendous like the bass boost on their CDPs were.
  19. Nice! Now I think I'll wait until I need a new computer.
  20. Thanks, I think your probably right. In an age where I could get a $120 XP desktop tower, upgrade it for $100, and then get the card and be at half the price, that would seem to make a hell of a lot more sense. I know that I should be able to tap i2s with a Juli@ or other cards.
  21. Second bump from the dead on this. Its been hard to find a 24/96 or better USB-i2s adapter, so I've been looking at the new empirical audio Off-ramp. The Off-ramp 3 is no longer based on the M-audio Transit, appears to now be native drivers for 24/96 USB, includes the i2s, AES, and coaxial by default, and is $699 now unless you opt for the superclock 4 upgrade. That seems a lot better then the sick $1200 price from two years ago for the previous iteration. Granted, he still charges horrendous amounts of dough for cables and such and is certainly greedy for my money, I'm still tempted to put it on a possible to buy list in the future. For now, it seems worth my time to modify a Transit myself to get straight spdif without the optical cable involved and place it inside my DAC instead of using $630 more dollars that my current equipment doesn't warrant. It doesn't seem quite right to pay that much for an upgrade from 16 bit or strongly worry about jitter, surely someone thought of something better... I bet I should probably just buy a new CD transport that outputs even higher resolution and formats for the dough.
  22. They're to make your head look smaller. (No offense intended Duggeh)
  23. For your birthday, just an idea....
  24. Doug! Happy Birthday!!!!
  25. Justin releases a new amp, Ray quickly follows suite. Pico vs. Predator again this time with Blue Hawaii Second Edition vs. the A-10 Thunderbolt II Esquire. The commenter that said that was the best looking amp he's ever seen must not have seen the BHSE.
