  1. OTA 1080p content is vastly superior to anything the cable providers are serving up that I welcome 4K OTA. My TiVO setup is working out well as a media hub that combines streaming sources with OTA programming. There is some small annoyances with the pretty massive amount of bandwidth needed to shuffle that content around the house, combined with the TiVO Mini being a bit underpowered as a device...
  2. 2009 Partagas Lusitanias Against my better judgement in this humidity, but we will see how she burns
  3. It contains three remixes of two tracks, which are amusing and conveniently tough for my system to track, until I got things dialed in. Next:
  4. Touche - naivete ftw
  5. Ok, now the fruits of labor
  6. Got some gadgets out My ottoman clearly needs leveling.
  7. Went back to the bullet phase plugs, thereby removing these: Listening to this:
  8. As long as I can prefer Red Vines over Twizzlers.
  9. I would suggest PMing HeadphoneAddict and working out the details on how to handle this situation.
  10. The exception being some of the HEQ Seikos, but yes - Reks speaks truth.
  11. Yeah, it's an 8508 movement. Ok, I guess the question is US service center or request it go back to Switzerland.
  12. Right - so I am proposing to replace the two diamond buffers with a single SIP-8 pinout with external resistors that can be shorted to run the discrete opamps as buffers. Then the existing buffer boards could be made double sided (stereo) if desired.
  13. Any recommendations on how to handle an Omega service? Direct in the US, direct to Switzerland or an Independent?
  14. Could you be persuaded to modify the board? Basically would need a SIP-10 pinout for the dual opamp and usual external resistors. Pinout would be: 1 - signal ground 2 - OUT_A 3 - -IN_A 4 - +IN_A 5 - -23V 6 - +IN_B 7 - -IN_B 8 - OUT_B 9 - +23V 10 - psu ground Drop-in replacement for something like NJM4558E, pin 1 and pin 10 are omitted (one of the advantages to a discrete opamp is handling ground properly/differently/carefully) http://akizukidenshi.com/download/NJM4558.pdf Also, would need to note changes to the external circuit for slightly higher rails.
  15. I have a discrete opamp that is unity gain stable that sounds quite nice. Once you get this up and running and familiar with the sound, I would appreciate a comparison. Will send samples for positive review only though. K thx bye. Actually, it would be a PITA - mine are dual opamps on a single board. So, would probably need a new board.
  16. I am in the same position Al, though still have a massive HP discount / FAN on my account. Consider me subscribed.
  17. Mucked out an older high capacity smoker today. Yes, that is the proper verb. I am hesitant to buy another Maverick temperature probe system, as all of them have died. Any other recommendations?
  18. Looks nice, but the depth is a bit non-standard. Does it stick out a bit from your cabinets in an annoying way?
  19. Is the Wolf an integrated cooktop and oven? Looking for something like this as I can't really do the counter work to move to "separates".
  20. Some drawers. I need to learn to use a router as the "pulls" came out inconsistent. I think a template and some skills could have made them better. Also rushed the finish which isn't visible here, but obvious if you look carefully in the right light.
  21. Good show, old chap!
  22. These work really well too, if you like using the Keystone jacks: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0012DMBGA/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  23. Oysters and Fries. Seems legit.
  24. I would be willing to redo a board from scratch if you sent me a list of modifications (removing dual resistor pads, etc.) I should have time this summer and sounds like a fun project.
