Happy birthday!

Cool.

Vicki, do you have a multimeter you could bring? If not, it doesnt look like the TSA has any limitations with taking those carryon. Also, do you have the big plitron in yours?

What makes you say this? All that I have seen is that they are able to read the forums and see what people tend to like to hear right now.

Ah no, the service manual is something which must be acquired separately, definitely quite different from the owners manual. This is also often the case with audio companies, though many do not offer anything. Companies like Denon, Rotel, and many others do provide very useful and complete service manuals upon request, which provide everything from schematics, a BOM, board guide, and exploded assembly guide. My sensei's favorite insult was always that one's mother wears combat boots.

Probably needs the extra width to get all the bits though it that 24/96 requires.

Yeah, I have heard good things about them, mainly their Silk transformers.

Probably a good thing.

Good point!

Mu-Metal, and associated EMI shielding stuff.

I have done this, several times.

If I find pro bias drivers for a reasonable price, sure. Dunno if I could bear to tear a good condition Gamma pro apart though.

Just FYI, but I have the full service manual with everything for my '02 Mazda, and am pretty sure similar documents are available for most cars. Otherwise, most shops would be screwed. That dac did receive negatives here. Read the thread again.

There are both USB and PCI converters which output bit perfect, and those which dont.

But its got tubes 'n shit, it gotta be good!

What is the difference?

Just received a pair of SR-X mk3 I bought last week, and dang, they actually sound quite decent, even with the bare cloth pads (vinyl all flaked). Decent bass even, and they are in surprisingly good shape, especially the cable. Came with an SRD6, but I am using my SRM1/mk2 instead. Good stuff.

Interesting. I havnt heard the A900Ti, but I like them way better than the HD650 or any A-T I have heard. I do find the HD650 more comfortable though, and ironically dont find the HE-5 cable microphonic at all really, even though I do rather despise it.

I believe the musiland usb-spdif can do 24/192, and do it async at that.

Hmm, interesting, kinda like the thing with contact lenses. Probably with less perceptible benefit though.

And the lemon after the milk. Actually did that once, as the tea came with both.

Brent has been practically proselytizing us with said information in the chat for the past few months.

The elderly one doth speaketh wisely.

I owned HD580 for years, was happy with them for years, and sold an HD650 (with and without closed headphile deep woodies) in favor of HD580. Really cant see buying another one though.
