JP is setting up a Nor-Cal meet early next year. If he fixes the date and the location before the 8th people could take advantage of the Virgin America cyber monday deals Flights from Virgin America | Virgin Flights Maybe if Al Pairs it with a Mayberry Weekend, some of the Florida and NY crew could take advantage of the low fares. Just a thought. Maybe we could even break out the "Burning Van" for the weekend to ferry people around.

Heartbeats by Lady Gaga are holistically designed to deliver the soundtrack of your life with clarity and power, as well as satisfy your passion for fashion. Immerse yourself in pitch-perfect highs, precise mids, and club caliber bass. Because when your music sounds amazing, you stop hearing it, and start feeling it. In other words, sound really matters.

Wired is the way to go. WiFi has issues in the real word (neighbours, microwaves, etc) Touch would also seem to solve the "No PC on" if its your music rather than internet radio you are interested in. And for those other folks watching, it looks like the analogue outs on the Touch are an improvement over the SB3 (see the end of this thread for a view of this ) How "good" is your DAC? - Really Interesting test results! - Squeezebox : Community : Forums And for those who have been following the evolution of the Touch, it may also be able to function as an async source for USB dacs ... Looks worth waiting for ...

The Squeezebox approach is a client / server based distributed architecture. If words like that make no sense to you, start with something like Beginners Guide - SqueezeboxWiki Once you understand the concepts, you'll see that the Squeezebox is a "thin client" - you'll need a computer somewhere ( or use one of their servers "in the cloud" at Home - Welcome to mysqueezebox.com! ) running their server software. Then to confuse things, just when you though you had it all figured out, The Touch actually contains an embedded computer, capable of running a slimmed down server, capable of reading music files from an attached USB drive. The hardware has been ready for some time. It's the development of the associated software that has been holding up the release. Both the SB3 and the touch have S/PDif Coaxial and Toslink Optical digital outputs suitable for connecting to the DAC in your 840C. I leave it to you as to where you stand on the audibility of different digital inputs (and their implementation) Given that the server sofware is free for download, and there are a couple of software client emulators around, you don't need to actually buy anything to play around with the system to see if it fits your needs / uses. Looking forward, it seems likely that the touch is a more capable platform than the SB3 (and it can output 96/24 unlike the SB3 (which would have it downsampled to 48/24 on a server) ) Ultimately, it depends what your requirements are. Only you can answer that question.

If it makes you feel better Duggeh, JH-13's, work and spousal commitments make my attendance unlikely. And just to rub it in a Jet Blue had $99 One Way Cyber Monday SFO->FLL Offer. Virgin America have an active $109 One way SFO->FLL . I'll let you covert that to pence per mile for comparison (to you proposed flight) purposes.

And improved Signal / Noise ratio, as the peaks are further from the noise floor. However, once clipping occurs, you have thrown away information, than cannot be recovered. I now find the warning with track 59 of Sound Check somewhat quaint MAXIMUM TONE LEVEL Warning - This track is at the theoretical maximum recording level, 0dB FS. THIS IS A VERY LOUD TONE - USE WITH CAUTION Track 59: 1kHz sine wave at 0dB FS (Duration 20 seconds) AvaxHome -> ALAN PARSONS & STEPHEN COURT: SOUND CHECK | MOBILE FIDELITY SOUND LAB | ULTRADISC II "Theoretical Maximum", who would ever use that in practice

You can visualize it. Old School mastered recording with dynamic range and headroom. Brickwalled compression (and no doubt clipping) 16 bits of dynamic range wasted.
