  1. I likey Haven't had much time to crank it, but its clean and impressive for such a small package. Seems to drive the 650's OK from the headphone out. I'm particularly impressed by the internal architecture (software DSP crossover feeding separate DACS->digital amps for tweeters + woofers + built in (software) EQ correction curve for physical response of system, to keep it flat for as low as it can go). Clever stuff, and has potential for enhancement down the line. See the white paper, here http://wiki.slimdevices.com/uploads/a/ad/Logitech_Squeezebox_Boom_Audio_Design.pdf for the full gory details. Hopefully Al will be able to give some objective impressions, having a reference system for comparison.
  2. Just another bump,as I notice over 1K views at the other place. Looks like the LA meet should be a great test flight for next years international meet, even bigger and better we hope. I notice that AMB/Ti Kan & co will be at Burning Amp, so plenty of opportunity to get your headphone fix in California this weekend.
  3. Oh dear. McCain oven chips. You had to remind me, didn't you. Now I have to show everyone else. Never mind the micro chips This is what they are up to now. McCain - It's all good With the advent of Sarah Palin, John Cleese no longer considers Michael Palin the funniest Palin.

    Dreamcatcher, Captcha Did you see what he just did?
  5. For some people, that was the attraction. Apparently.
  6. Glad to hear you are all right, Al. On a related note, this morning, our office was under the flight path of a(n) S-64 Skycrane engaged in firefighting on, we assume, Angel Island. It made several passes, re-watering, we assume, from the freshwater in Corte Madera creek. The discussion here assumed that they wanted to use freshwater, rather than saltwater from the bay, so as not to disrupt the ecosystem on Angel Island. The skycrane is an impressive beast - ours was #780 in red.
  7. The missing subtext here is that drives fail, and that (inevitable?) failure should be planned for. To do otherwise seems hubristic.
  8. Because there are only two types of hard drives in the world? Those that have failed. Those that haven't failed. Yet.
  9. Cute and Welsh Sound at the concert was pretty good, and she can certainly belt them out, when she wants to. Joanne enjoyed it, and it was a good end to a very pleasant afternoon. If you have Rockferry, you were there, except for the addition of which she informed us is getting UK radio play. see what you think. zSHARE - 01 Rain On Your Parade.mp3
  10. Better resource for audio frequency Audio frequency - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Which tells us that someone built A Contrabass that plays a 4Hz Tone Kudos to aerius for being aware of the 16.35Hz B
  11. That P. T. Barnum was an optimist?
  12. Why not just end the debate, and use a software tone generator, say like ►►Test Tone Generator Software for Windows / Function and White Pink Noise Generator and generate tones of the exact frequency you desire, or a series so you can find the threshold of interest. Or, in case your computer hardware is the limiting factor, get a real hardware tone generator, for some real "old school" analog sine waves. You must know some one with access to physics / electronic test gear? Failing that, do you have a Theremin handy?
  13. But surely, the Harbeth logo should be on the outer edge, not the inner edge, of the monitors, if you want to widen the soundstage? Seriously, Sweeeeet rig. And you still get billable work done?
  14. Then the Palin Interview simulator would probably do your blood pressure no favo(u)rs.
