Esmé and I shared her first four roller coaster rides today.

Just tried on phone and a couple AKUS albums came up under her name-only (New Favorite). No Paper Airplanes though.

Out of curiosity who's using mostly mobile apps to stream any service at home on wifi to a DAC? As much as I like the larger real estate of the laptop screen, when listening seriousishly I tend to not be in front of the computer. Guess that's why the mobile UIs are important to me. I have a few times (assuming network issues on their part). Less so then when they first launched. Occasionally also they list albums they legally can't stream. Look at the recent Dylan/The Band release where (at least last I looked) they listed three versions (Spotlight, Complete, and Raw), however they only stream one. Not sure if that's related. The OS X app (if that's what you're referring to) is certainly old.

^ Thanks. This and a Manhattan may help relax after a very long day. Favorite quote so far (50 min in): "That's the great thing about curling - you see something new every day."

Craigslist.

Was at a mall today. Strangely not tempted to pick up some B&Os.

Too Many Cooks over and over in my head.

The worlds first cyber sitcom!

Happy Birthday and have a great dinner.

Enjoying them a ton (and yes, they hit on the above required traits, and your bands are in sync with Sean's playlists), and although I listened to a lot of speakers before pulling the trigger on the KEFs, then Zus, they were all at a lower price point (especially used) then Doug is looking. There was a Zu Omen MK.II introduction sale, but unfortunately that ended (and started) last week. The KEF R700s are killer, but depends if you want a big sound, how you feel about crossovers, and how efficient is efficient. Add me as a fan of the upper Harbeths. Also for whatever it's worth I had big fears of Esmé destroying the drivers/cloth grills and after talking with a couple people who had similar fears at earlier points in their lives, so far we've all had zero problems. Course Vandersteen-like covers may be different. EDIT: Plenty of places have good return policies, but will just say the "pre-loved" Zus (sometimes used, sometimes new cabinets/used drivers, sometimes just on sale) have their normal 60-day return (free-shipping) policy and they've been rotating models there in batches. May be worth keeping on eye on if you don't find something else sooner.
