That actually made me lol.

So it's NOT the dildos? Dildos are all fine and good, then? Got it. Vampires gayer than dildos.

^ Eww

One thing is for sure: it's gonna be comfy as hell.

This thread inspired me to check out the "NOS is BS" thread on HF... Big, big mistake...

There's also this thing: TTVJ FET-A Headphone Amp [TTVJ FET-A] - $649.00 : TTVJ, Todd The Vinyl Junkie Don't know how analytical it is, but it should probably be in the conversation, right?

I like this thread.

Hey, can someone let me in?

Wow you do listen to Rihanna?

Lies!

How are roundabouts over there? Common? I know Europeans love em. In the States, they're fairly rare. I personally hate them, but they are definitely much safer than stop signs with regards to fatal accidents.

I think Icarium actually gave the DF1704 a try, with predictable results.

Yeah, fuck em. I was following your thread intently but didn't want to post for whatever reason. I was hoping to get in a "congrats" when everything worked out for ya. Well, good luck with everything.

Welcome, cybertron. The protocol is to not post threads like this. Please take a good look around, and think very carefully before posting anymore. I think $300 is a weird tweener price range. I personally would go either <$200 or $400-500. Maybe some good Stax fit in around $300; I don't know. That's my take before lock.

Since when do ortho guys care about looks? Y'all are like the porn sluts of audio. Looks definitely don't seem to matter.

I just checked it real quick, and it looks like their SB jitter measurements were about the same as those of some old RME cards, somewhere in the low 200ps range. Looks to be about a wash as far as Stereophile measurements go. Not really sure how good of a gauge those are, but JA also mentioned the Transit being pretty high and the 0404 being even higher, both in the single digit ns range I think. That seems to confirm what others tell me as far as transport quality. So there's definitely a correlation, if not necessarily a causation thing going on.

Speaking of gym stuff... I think I've overtrained myself recently. That combined with a bit of heat wave, and I'm not feeling as sharp as usual. So yeah, don't overtrain.

So, what's the consensus on the quality of the regular Squeezeboxes as transports? I could never figure where it ranks in the grand scheme of computer transports. I've just assumed async USB and word clock at the top, pro sound cards next, then SB stuff is the next best thing.

Yeah, and there's also variations in track speed. And the dude ran 100m instead of 40yd. And he didn't get 3 shots at it. And a host of other things. Yes, I realize it's not a perfectly ideal comparison. Tack on an extra .2s if you must.

I heard it sucked. Who can I trust?!? Anxiously awaiting OP's review. :D:D BTW: the review will basically be worthless unless compared directly to a decently built mini3.

But what if they were sexeh ladiez?

Some cat broke it down with videotape and looked at the time when he crossed the imaginary 40. I'm sure if he ran a real 40, it'd be even faster. Hell no, I wouldn't know how to do it myself.

OK, just a random tidbit that has nothing to do with anything, but I thought it was interesting as hell: Usain Bolt's 100m translates to a 3.82s 40 time. I honestly didn't think it was humanly possible to get under 4 seconds. For reference: fastest official NFL combine 40 was Bo Jackson's 4.17, and fastest with digital stopwatches is Chris Johnson's 4.24.

Macbook as source + Nuforce Icon. LOL what a fucking noob!!!1

In time for what? I don't see the Dynafets finishing anytime soon... Do you mean the ubercontroller in relation to chassis?
