  1. It is a shame that the labels keep neglecting the Syd Barrett albums. Oh well at least we got a proper mono CD of Piper.
  2. I wasn't a fan of the old Squeezebox Server as well; it was slow and laggy with my 4000+ CDs. And the SB3 device interface was rather primitive. At the time my SB3 mostly sat idle while I used Foobar2000 with my M-Audio Transit. Then came the Touch. IMO a massive upgrade from the SB3. The Slimserver software is quite low profile and I experience no lag, this is with a server running an Athlon 2400+ and 1 GB of memory. The search feature works fine on my Touch... I never used it on the SB3. My only complaint with the Touch is the inability to scan my library using the device interface. Instead I have to remote connect to my server and go into the Slimserver software to rescan the library. I will never miss messing with USB, installing drivers, fiddling with ASIO, trying out different buffer settings, testing the bit perfect output with a DTS track, etc ever again
  3. My house has horribly leveled floors. I moved the rack about 10 feet from its original position and now need 3/4" thick pieces of wood underneath the two front rack footers to make it level Without the wood and starring at the table plinth at eye level I can see the back of the plinth.
  4. Robert Johnson - Centennial Collection
  5. Sous-vide fillet mignon from Omaha Steaks last night. Best steak ever had. This machine is going to pay for itself many times over.
  6. One of my Lenco L75 projects that will probably never get done :/
  7. Oh yes the table I've been listening to this last week, drove down to meet the seller to pick it up. A nice improvement from the Technics while I wait for Slatey to be done.
  8. Nice! Haven't heard this in a while
  9. Does anyone have the Hifi News or Analogue Productions test record they want to let me borrow?
  10. This thread has turned into major fail in just one page. Ban hammer coming out in 5, 4,,,
  11. Haven't heard this in maybe 10 years, found it in a box of old CDs
  12. Ordered an early edition of the books off Ebay. I hate when publishers turn the book designs into photographs of the TV/movie characters when a book adaptation gets big on film.
  13. Happy birthday Milos, hope you did well in Vegas
  14. Copper is to put it in New Englander terms, wicked expensive at the moment
  15. Are the universal pads available in brown? I am guessing the answer is no
  16. Is it any surprise Chrysler filed for bankruptcy a couple of years ago
  17. I would be interested in a foil version with 1 db steps to reduce the blow to the wallet if anyone else was thinking about madness
  18. Another turntable Oh man I made it to the second last day of April and just had to break my no gear streak :/
  19. arnaud don't get so bothered by people's posts here. I appreciated the cross posting since I never read Headfi unless someone links something over there. I don't care about your posts about how easy or difficult they are to drive since this is your opinion and you compared it to the SR-007 which is a baseline, but people get rightfully upset when there is speculation about how something sounds, these sort of posts should stay at Headfi. Unless you have objective evidence or listening experience saying the top end electrostatic amps will not be of any benefit to the SR-009 doesn't hold any water here, I would quietly drop these sort of posts.
  20. It was really a minor complaint, and I understand it's necessary given the bloodlines. It was still a good episode, but I don't mind character introductory episodes if done well like the first.
  21. I just can't get into audiobooks. Reading with my own voice allows me to paint a better image in my head, even though some of the narrators I've heard were pretty good. Personally didn't care for all the drama involving children in this episode.
  22. Ben Webster and Sweets Edison Classic Records 45 rpm (4 disc)
  23. First episode owned so much. Boromir FTW!! Hopefully HBO will do the other books as well.
  24. I'm going to keep my eyes out for some of the cheaper devices that come out. I'd rather spend 40% less than their major competitor if all I'm doing is email, internet, controlling my Squeezebox Touch and digital attenuator. I appreciate your objective views.
