Just wanted to say this is a very interesting post. Thanks so much for taking the time to write it. It does make me want an OII even worse though.

oh shit, i almost forgot the best selling point: i cna put mah ipods in der. now if we could just cram a tube in that bitch it'd be that bom shit yall, damn

I think you are all missing the point, which is that this product is completely worthless. http://www.stevehoffman.tv/forums/showpost.php?p=3139958&postcount=20

Back on topic: OCEAN Water Beach Salt Surf Boat

just a personal opinion. I'm not nearly passionate enough about movies to warrant dumping the kind of cash into HT that I do into 2-channel audio. Music is where its at for me. I do have an HT, but the entire thing ran ~$1500 new, HDTV included.

speakers good, HT bad.

bah, the work internet blocks most picture hosting sites so I can't see the pic. :'( ooh ooh, also nice grab on those supa cheap RS-1s tyrion. Hell, I would've bought them at that price and I have two pair already.

I was on Cingular for years prior to Verizon. 6 one half dozen the other far as service goes, both were fine in all parts of Alabama. Cingular in particular was also fine along the gulf coast from Lousiana to the panhandle, George from Atlanta to Savannah and west, South Carolina, North Carolina around Boone/Winston-Salem, parts of TN. So the different service provider doesn't really weigh in. $45 a month for 450 minutes is fine with me.

no.

yeah OJ convinced me backchannel. still have to wait for verizon plan to expire though, so... three weeks.

hello i cna invest $1,000,000 in your enterprise kind sir. i am priest of small s. african church and when were oil fields to bless the jesus christ child. pls provide me with ABA/routing number and account

actually i think the touchscreen interface is super cool. might be the biggest selling point for me about the whole package.

actually just regular black sent to my billing address is fine. ty.

justin, i haven't ordered a black w/ clear knob yet, but if I do order one before valentines day and request a blue finish with clear sides i'll actually need the black with clear knob, if it is delivered to my vacation home. otherwise just stick with the original clear sides and gold knobs, since if it comes in at work i'll need it before mardi gras anyway. ty. also cancel my order.

thx pak, thread closed. omg i can't lock the thread. well i didn't want to anyway. i was going to lock it for a little bit then unlock it.

FUCK! my bad X, happy birthday my friend!

ardie, the preorder list is a pretty good indicator of wait time: http://www.headamp.com/portable_amps/pico/preorders.htm he seems to be moving them out pretty damn quickly.

"Three Weeks 'Till iPhone!" OR "Convince Me Otherwise!" An Adventure In Expensive Gadgetry No One Really Needs Our family plan with Verizon ends January 21st, and my dad and mom are switching to Cingular. I'd like to switch over to Cingular as well, since I speak with them on the phone probably more then anyone else. Of course this also presents a great opportunity to buy my first fancy ass phone: the iPhone. I have been staunchly anti-fancy phone my entire life. In fact when I went with my Dad to sign up for our Verizon plan two years ago, I was adamant that the phones we received not have cameras in them. I just wanted a telephone, damn it. But the iPhone has finally lured me in with its touchscreen, ease of use, everywhere internet access, and nice weight and feel. A coworker of mine has had one for months and I've slowly felt the obsession build. I'm pretty much all set right now to do it, but now I've got this three week cool down period with which to really think about it. So I'm asking you, my headcase peeps, to tell me why I shouldn't get an iPhone. Or why I should. Or you can not participate in this thread at all, which is fine as well.

Chekkie, the MS2i is the winner at this price range, IMO. I wouldn't lose any sleep over not having an RS-1.

Happy birthdays!

Of course, the most important question remains unanswered: how does the phono stage look? Todd said he'd put up some pictures in the next few days.

Ah, so it is hybrid all the way. An additional SS gain stage. My apologies for the error.

I posted about this over in the TTVJ forum, but I'd like to snag the HC opinion as well: http://www.ttvj.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=5&products_id=1110 This phono looks very versatile. I like the idea of a tube MM stage, while throwing in the SS to beef up the output for MC. And Todd says it should be available in 2-3 weeks.

You left yourself wide open for that one. <3 rockhopper

How about a pic of that balanced beta22 you're working on? Oh that's right...not done yet. Fire the iron Stephen, that amp isn't gonna fuck itself together.
