I gotta try this as I love cream soda. Hmm, I wonder where I can find it around my neck of woods - I don't think I've ever seen it before.

New Portishead track and video.
I'm so looking forward to the release of this album. I really should go find myself the leaked version...

Why dual volume controls?
Probably because HeadRoom Blockhead (the first balanced headphone amp, AFAIK) had two volume controls - sort of like dual 3-pin XLR jacks on most balanced headphone amps.

Way to go Head-Fi
I'm not liking the change either, though at least my browser resizes the windows so I don't have to scroll over.

?22 as a preamp?
Well, I poked around a bit and it looks like 840c/MC2100 combo should work just fine as far as output impedance/input impedance are concerned. Now, if I can only find the output level of 840c. No, it's no in the manual, or at least I can't find it.

?22 as a preamp?
Deepak, if you can along the info from Kevin in regards to B22 a preamp, I'd appreciate it. I'm resigned to the fact that I may have to look elsewhere since my B22 is set at gain of 8, IIRC, mainly for driving K1000 and as such, I don't really want to lower that.

?22 as a preamp?
At this point, I'm looking for just a preamp, as I plan on keeping ?22 as my headphone amp - it works rather well with RS-1 and K1000. If ?22 works well as a preamp, I may see about getting a remote-controlled volume control installed. Of course, with my lack of experience with preamps (and speaker setup in general), I don't really have a god point of reference for preamp performance.

?22 as a preamp?
I'm planning on using my ?22 as a preamp with McIntosh MC2100 and Eminent Tech LFT-8b. Just wondering if anyone around here knows how ?22 stacks up as a preamp. I'm hoping to get a standalone unit, but that won't be for a while with recent and upcoming non-audio expenditures. Oh, and anyone has thoughts on Promitheus Audio TVC? It has rather attractive price and seems to be well-received (though it would be nice if it had a remote).

I haven't gotten around to doing the brackets yet. Let's see what I can come up with.

Glad to hear that you had a good ending to this whole fiasco.

No, because now you're just being annoying.

Ultrasone HFI-780
While I know there are folks who love 120 min IPA, including some here, the 90 min IPA is much better beer overall, IMO.

You know, that particular picture on Girl Scout cookies has always bothered me a bit. She looks like she's in pain.

Newbie help on wireless music media sources
I've been using Squeezebox 3 (now called just Squeezebox) for a bit now and could not be happier. It's pretty easy to setup and use. It has both analog output and digital outputs (coax and optical) so you'd be able to add a DAC in the future if so desired. I don't know what your budget is, but it retails for $299 and shows up on A'gon often for less. Although they do tend to get snatched up pretty fast on A'gon.

Lathes are fun!
Dunno, I agree with Vicki that it looks like a rather nice pepper mill. Speaking of which, I need one for my salt.
