Digital in -- what would you use that for, that most of us wouldn't upgrade to an external a/d? Well, unless it's already digitized.

Whose?

Of the two, the Tribeca will definitely make her more popular (think: moving and hauling stuff). The Impreza is just more practical. I wouldn't worry about making her more popular -- there are those of us who are into the brainy geek types if you're talking guy/girl (and yes, she's plenty cute), and brainy geek types tend towards each other, if you're talking just friends.

Just saw this advertised today for the first time. Hawt: (new Thorens triangular-balance turntable)

I hope you don't hit any speed bumps, your muffler is dragging. Battery power -- mmmmm...

This doesn't bode well for the audioengines. You might be this thing called "spoiled". I mean, let's look at what you got: home headphone rig: O2's & BHSE -- quite possibly the best headphone sound ever anywhere portable rig: JH13's -- quite possibly the best portable sound speaker rig: Abbys & Bailey -- tres excellente speakers You're not even going to be able to listen to car stereo ever again, are you?

It's out? Or you ordered it?

I don't get it. No, seriously, I lollered.

Incorrect. It would be very appropriate.

I think you meant DTS, not DSD.

Anyone ever heard of Bookeen? Small is good. Although after looking at the B&N pic, it might have competition. Small and color is better.

Almost all programs benefit from moar memory, especially anything that's doing ...well anything other than "hello world" (of which iTunes definitely qualifies). But only up to 4G for 32 bit systems. So you'd want the 64-bit operating system as well. It'll also run quieter and cooler. Not to be confused with the memory limit of the motherboard, which is probably what is dictating the 4G number in the Mini specs.

They were out (backordered, meaning they're not even in the distributors' warehouse), so it'll be a few weeks. I'll probably forget I ordered them by the time I receive them. In fact, I think I'll put a reminder in my yahoo calendar.

You know, off to the side as a separate device, I could even be tempted to WANT NAO. And: Holy Shit! I just watched the Steve Jobs demo from the last MacBook (this one), and that's indeed pretty awesome.

Yeah, that's why I backpedalled a bit. Also time.

Namlook, La Mer -- electronica

Or should I only bring one (player)?

Happy Birthday!

He said, "knob", not "hand crank" or "throw switch".

I can't believe you passed up the opportunity to place "twelve inches from" anywhere in that sentence.

Shure SRH840

Which ones should I bring? HINT: "All of them" is not realistic. I'm thinking the three best: the Denon (my daily player), the Oppo blu-ray player, and the better of the two Pioneers. Also, if you thought I meant actual SACD's, "all of them" is not realistic there either. If you have any particular ones that you want brought, tell me which ones. I'll bring Goldfrapp just because; some Depeche Mode; both the Talk Talk ones (just because they are a personal reference); probably as many of the RCA Living Stereo SACD's as I can fit, and a couple other favorites. Oh, and yes, some Hilary Hahn. And no, Colin, I don't have Consign to Oblivion yet. I paid more than US$40 for the two Talk Talk ones, it's going to take me some time to build up the nerve to pay more than US$100 for one SACD. I will, I just haven't yet. Also need to track down Dare (Human League).

Want.

Why do you have four turntables? You trying to find the best match for each of your copies of Raw Power?
