BH it is.

The Beta deserves some headphone love unless you are saying I should give it a rest. The Beta fits right in.

It really sounds nice. I'm listening to Ray Brown Soular Energy on vinyl and the bass is huge. I'll move to can's now. It's bee a couple of hours.

Thanks Haj. That's my Berendsen preamp. I am probably holding off on the Modwright and keeping this for now. I'll see how it mates with the McCormack DNA-.1 Rev A before thinking about changing.

By the way, the beautiful maple (matches my speakers) sandbox was made by swt61. There was some minor damage during shipping so I don't have sand in it at the moment.

Thanks! Ken, I suppose it's possible that I could eventually can upgrade the platter, then the plinth, then the motor and on and on but not for a while.

Bumped the gain up a bit on the phono stage and against doctors orders I am using the beta to drive me speakers. Sorry Nate, I needed a break from headphones. Volume is at about 9:30.

I've waited about 3 months for this, which in SP time is the speed of light, so it is not going anywhere anytime soon. Really, I mean it.

Finally:

I've considered a pre order. They aren't going to be out until March, from what I can tell. I will hopefully get a chance to hear them some time after that and make my own mind up. I'm pretty happy with my current rig. If they turn out to be as good as what is being said about them now, I would consider picking them up. I don't see any reason for me to rush to order them. Oh yeah, then there is my no new gear thing.

Happy Birthday!

Ended up not buying Al's McCormack and will be taking delivery of Jp's DNA-1 rev. A.

You're fired! I still want the HD 800 replacement cable.

If he can't, he's fired.

Nate, your job is to arrange a group buy with Tyll.

Too steep for me, unfortunately. Probably not much of a chance of it going much lower considering they never come up for sale. At $5000, I would sell the BH, Jade and my ASR phono stage to help fund it.

Jay, sweet vinyl rig. Enjoy the analog goodness!

Sorry about the delay. The keyboard and mouse work fine for the typical office stuff. I never install the software that comes with these wireless keyboards and mice so I don't have all the features. Jay, awesome rig! Now if only I could get my hands on a tt.

They are great speakers. Unfortunately, they are not well known. Thanks.

Apparently now I'm disingenuous per Dusty so I guess I could use a laugh.

Nate FTW

I only wish I had some pics. Oz didn't get to it yesterday and said he will come in tomorrow on his day off to set it up. We will see. I promise, the moment I get it set up in my house I will post some pics.

I certainly could be wrong and their is a conspiracy of which I am not a part and his hidden from me. Quite frankly, at this point, I'm not sure why I even care anymore.
