You should have stopped by The Trappist in Oakland no trip to the Bay Area is complete without a stop there. See you tomorrow at the game hope you guys had a great time here.

Greg, it's my favorite if you fear it I'll take it

take the muni bus or cab to Toronado in the lower Haight for a brunch beer and a sausage next door, then on Haight and Masonic is Magnolia (decent beer good food) and down the block is Alembic (scary good food if you like organ meats and decent beers but killer bourbon/rye selections) Mike try not to kill yourself before CanJam buddy

my situation is pretty weird in that neither the mic nor the in line mic works with my shure IEMs. Logically they are two different entry points so not sure what the issue is, either way it's $199 to be able to take calls all other functions work fine.

come out with me this weekend for a brisk 8 mile hike with my lard ass;D

Greg the Ref dac is really good and on first pass sounds like a solid winner. Al and I are going to put it up against some stiff competition this weekend

I have the reference at the house right now and wow on first pass it sounds great with the stacker I'll give it a better go this weekend with the speaker rig

AARRGGGHHHHH my iphone mic started to act up intermittently about 2 weeks ago and crapped out over the past few days. So I spoke to a fucking genius today at the Apple store and was told the little bugger was submerged in water at some point. Well I can tell you it was never submerged in water but I can see where the water sensor, the little white spot at the dock section had turned red. It got damp during a hike over a month ago and had no problems for 2 weeks then the mic started acting up. So instead of a replacement it is $199. I tried using a Shure mic from the headphone jack but no luck. All other functions work fine though. Any ideas on a place that may be able to repair this or am I just fucked? I've owned alot of cell phones in the past ten years and some have gone for a good swim and always came back to life but the iphone seems to be a bit more sensitive. Billy no hot tub adventures with your iphone.

There are a few good beer bars spreadout over the expanse of the greater LA area, Father' Office is the best local spot but my favorite is a solid drive away in Seal Beach called Beachwood BBQ. It is 28 miles away but the beer is great , Gabe the owner is as good as it gets and the food is great as well. Vicki they have a great asparagus and if your willing to eat cheese they make a mean mac and cheese just ask them to remove the sausage.

awesome!

look the kid is going to have what 20-30 more birthdays in your lifetime, at least?? Maybe it is time to teach the young lad that life is full of disappointments, you'll be doing him a strong favor by attending and getting stunningly drunk with your buds.

Ari happy birthday!!

The link to the photoshop version was broken in the announcement post so I relinked ans we are cool.

no idea??

If I had to guess and was betting I'd lay money on Chi-Town for next year but we'll see at the Papal conference that will be held at CanJam to decide next year's sucker, oh I mean organizer.

I placed a call into Ayre today to see if we could get one of these for CanJam. The dude that handles this was out for the day so I hope to get a call on Monday about a loaner or Ayre presence. Not to hopeful on them showing up given the notice but am keeping my fingers crossed we can swing a demo unit for the show.

Ari is looking for someone to share a room with I'd check with him. Hey is Billy coming you could mooch off him

Ken I am truly sorry to hear this, my condolences and thoughts are with you and your family. He sounds like he was a great man and I really wish I had met him.

Happy Birthday

thank David (909) for the volunteer suggestion and yes there will be some volunteers (lifeguards) for the gear but I would still adopt safe gear precautions for things like l3000s and R10s like taking them with me when I wandered the halls and such. At the SoCal meet I took the W2002s out for people when I was there but put them away when I was gone or had them around my neck for testing with other rigs. I think a prudent mix of trust and common sense is called for in these instances. That said my trust and faith in the community has been amply rewarded in the 5 years I have been a part of it.

Top of the list is the Balancing Act with the HD800s, The Woo amps are on the list, Smyth room as the table demo blew my head off at the last LA meet, Tyll's new dac...TBC Those that are attending from out of town should be able to get a good preview listen Friday night during vendor set up. We still have a few rabbits to pull out of our hats.

The headcase t-s have a blacker background but David/Ed's shirt has better detail and dynamics.

Mike, keeping my fingers crossed for you and your daughter!

How is the quality if this unit, notice any sound degradation? I thought of picking one up this weekend as my optical is on the fritz on the transdac

hope you had a great B-day!
