  1. Nice, mine won't be here 'til Monday.
  2. I may end up getting a pair of A5's at some later date for the office but for now I will just use my Swan M200's there. As for the Quads, I suppose I will probably want to use these a balanced source instead of the Pico Dac. So I will need to run ~15ft interconnects to them (or completely change my setup which I don't want to do). I assume that this length is fine, right? Also, will there be any problem powering these from a different outlet than the source? Happy Quad Day!
  3. Bought a pair of Quad 12L actives (cherry gloss) from Lanemart on audiogon! The funny thing is that I was just about set to get a pair of Audioengine A5's when I saw these.
  4. Whiskey indeed Al! Luckily you are "connected."
  5. If I remember correctly, the nozzles on the JHA universals were pretty damn big and the only tips I could use were the foam ones included with the demos. When JHAudio sent me the demos, they sent 6 pairs and a ton of foam tips.
  6. Parallels 5 and some other junk (via the MacUpdate Promo 2010 Spring bundle)
  7. Ok, guess that makes sense. No Iphone/touch (I seem to be one of the only people left) but I should have an Ipad soon and will try out Remote then. For now, I guess I will stick with using itunes via screen share.
  8. Very nice Mike... the bamboo looks sweet.
  9. Does anyone know how to get Front Row working with "share screen?" I have a Mac Mini for a music server (no external monitor hooked up). I am using screen share to control it on my Macbook Pro. Everything works well except if I try to run Front Row, the (mac mini) "screen" goes black. When I press the "arrow" keys, I can hear it clicking so I know it is running Front Row, I just can't see anything.
  10. I would like to use the Pico amp/dac as a DAC, connected to my powered computer speakers. I tried measuring output voltage by connecting one of my multimeter (set to AC voltage) to the 1/8" output and the other to ground (while playing 60Hz tone through the computer but having no headphones/speakers plugged in). I was getting readings that were really low when the volume was low and it got about to 2V on high gain about 3 o'clock. Does this seem correct (who knows if I was doing it right)? I decided to trying using it as a DAC with the volume at 12 o'clock and and the gain on high. There seems to be enough volume for listening at my desk. Is there a correct setting to get a "true" line out? I was a little afraid to turn the volume up to 3 o'clock on high gain when connected to the speakers... probably for no good reason.
  11. I flew back home after living in a hotel for ~2 weeks. It is good to be home.
  12. Happy birthday Al. Live it up!

    Not bad. I have been thinking of getting a pair of HD600 for the office. I have really regretted selling my HD580 a while back.
  14. Godspeed Naamaan! Keep safe and return quickly.
  15. That right there is a reason to get your nipple pierced!
