That is what I assumed (gain selecting).

Not sure how to interpret "coarse settings" or the rest of this: "Level control main output: * 4 coarse settings via relays (analog domain), fine setting via rotary encoder (digital domain). * Level control can be defeated for the main output. Level control headphone output: * 4 coarse settings via relays (analog domain, independent from the settings in the main output), fine setting via rotary encoder (digital domain)."

I think not: "LCD display for display of sampling rate, input source, audio level, absolute phase, upsampling filter type, various menu items Rotary encoder with push switch"

Weiss has released a new DAC202 with new D/A not based on the Minerva and integrated headphone amp. $6440 list price.

OK, cool. Waiting to hear about the new DAC. Did you ever post the details on the dCS?

I have been thinking of posting something of this nature since first reading his stupid thread title. You said it much better than I would have.

Sucks about the drive. Hope you have backups. I happen to have some of the same musics you had in case you need a HDD sent to you for repairs. I have not loaded 1.2 yet, but probably will this weekend.

But what about the new products?

Thanks Tom. Did you get the recent release of the 45 RPM Famous Blue Raincoat? I really do like that one. Now playing: FLY -- Sky & Country

Stretch has listened to These Four Walls and posted in the WAYLTN? thread. Lots of folks in that thread seem to have been loving on Merriweather Post Pavilion, especially when it came out. Also, Stretch had that in his list above.^

Agreed. And if you listen to my sped-up needle-drop it will move you even faster.

What do you think of the queen of the B3? Not bad. How is The Hunter? I keep looking at the ads for it but I have never heard it or even read a review.

Nice catch, Dan.

Seizure trance!

Oh nelly! Your year-end must have been pretty damn good! Congrats!

Indeed x2!

Don't be coy. Who is it?

Good show, Greg, now stop fucking around and get the ULN-8 pumping out glorious tunes!

Tyll! How you doin? You at CES or know what they are announcing?

I'm annoyed that there is no word on the product announcements.
