Did HeadRoom discontinue the Desktop Ultra DAC?
Tyll's not directly affiliated with Headroom anymore? When did that happen?

Amazon Kindle
I saw a news video somewhere that showed color e-ink technology with a brief explanation of it and if I remember correctly the woman stated that there should be some shipping by the end of the year. Maybe I misunderstood but I know it made me pause briefly when thinking about buying a new Kindle, that didn't last long though, after playing with my wife's I fell in love with so I ended up with one and the nice leather case with light for my birthday.

Battlestar Galactica
I'm not terribly surprised Caprica was cancelled, I thought the show was alright and was starting to show promise but at the same time I had a hard time with the relationship it had to BSG. I think if they had lost that relationship and changed a few things around so that the show was it's own entity not related to BSG it might have done better.

Are you sure a USB to coax conversion will even be necessary?

USB DAC's
Mainly due to a desire to try an amp with a more linear volume control I've picked up a TTVJ Slim with DAC, a Pico Slim amp and I'm looking at picking up a DAC only Pico all to compare with my current Pico DAC\Amp. To be honest I've been quite happy with the Pico DAC\Amp's performance so I haven't really paid much attention to the market over the last couple of years, is there anything else out there in a reasonable price range that I should be looking at? My preference is for something fairly small, battery or USB powered, that I can cart back and forth between work and home every day but depending on how the amp side of things shake out those requirements might not be as strict.

That's great news Vicki! According to tracking mine arrived at JH Audio today, if all goes well that means I might have them back by the end of next week.

My experience with their communication has been hit and miss but with a bit of mild persistence I have always received a reply and outside of that the customer service has been outstanding. Even with having had to send mine back now three times I still think based on what I've heard from the 13Pro's, when things gets sorted they will be more than worth the effort.

I'm starting to think if I can find all the pieces at reasonable used prices I might try to get a TTVJ Slim with DAC, Pico Slim and Pico DAC all here at the same time so I can compare them all directly.

Official Hockey Thread - 2010/2011 Edition
I know there's not much love for the Leafs round these parts but I just have to say, they look like a completely different team this year. I guess that stands to reason considering the turnover from last years team. Hopefully they can keep up this kind of entertaining play because it's far more fun to watch than the crap they've been putting on the ice the past few years.

Yeah, that's my biggest reason for thinking about changing to a Pico Slim or TTVJ Slim but I was curious if I would hear much, if any difference, in the presentation. I've also got the impression from some reading that the Pico Slim's volume control is better than the TTVJ's, is this by a fairly wide margin as well? I guess I'm trying to find a frame of reference as to how the different options compare to my Pico DAC/Amp.

Has anyone used a TTVJ Slim amp with a stand-alone Pico DAC? If so how did the combo fare, I'd be particularly interested in thoughts compared to the TTVJ Slim with DAC and the Pico DAC/Amp with 13Pro's. Oh and another question, I know this can probably be found elsewhere I expect I'll get more accurate answers by asking here, what kind of difference would I hear with a separate Pico DAC and Pico Slim compared to my Pico DAC/Amp?
