Dude, Hilary Hahn is my favorite living violinist, don't be dissin'. And synthpop sounds friggin' awesome on SACD. I just wish there was more.

Space issues. But if you don't, then never mind.

I have several universal players, including modded Denon 3910 two modded Pioneers unmodded Oppo BDP-83 I also have quite an SACD collection (not up-to-date).

Just FYI -- if you stack them, do tweeter-to-tweeter so that you don't get weird cancellations.

We can't really see the back -- I meant on the front. :rimshot: Thanks for the warning!

So the chastity belt is ironic?

You do, indeed, need a "real" pre-amp. That said, how does the Moth sound, being used as it is?

:blush:

I thought "SoFla Winter Meet" sounded kinda cool.

What the...?

I'm guessing he left out "...17th..."?

What Nate said, except I usually leave "amazon" out, as it's the first link 90% of the time. Then if amazon isn't hosting an image, I can alt-left and try another reasonable link (usually the artist's or label's website is a good choice -- another merchant is another good choice).

Sorry. But it's not like you weren't warned. But really, sincerely sorry.

I wouldn't trust 'em, they're all on crack. JH13 crack.

Happy Belated Birthday!

That's a beautiful garage you have, Nate.

That is pretty friggin' cheap, thanks for posting that. I conservatively put together a system I wanted, and it was a little more than a thousand dollars (which is a great price). Too bad I have neither a thousand dollars to spare, nor a friend with an amex card to use.

Not yet, but I will definitely be joining y'all on that particular bandwagon. I <3 The Kinks.

On the contrary, Amarro "Mini" is focused on pure playback, and is specifically targeted at audio nuts. link And the reasoning goes, "this program is doing something, therefore it is DSP". That middle part is in your mind. Do you know what DSP is? Digital Signal Processing. Digital -- meaning in the computer, not on a turntable -- Signal -- works with audio signals -- Processing -- "doing something". I think you're attributing connotations to DSP that aren't part of its proper denotation (definition). DSP does not necessarily mean that it does FFT's or dithers or anything else, it just means that it does something to the signal. The end. Attenuation? DSP. Pretty much has to be. I mean, it's quite possible it does nothing, but if it doesn't do anything, why not just listen to iTunes? That's the part I'm having a hard time with. I wouldn't want to pay $400 for something that does nothing. (That's what I was trying to say earlier with my shakti stones comment.) What am I misunderstanding?

Is that really a diphthong? I mean, it's just like saying "oh-no!", except it's oh-po instead of oh-no. Would you like me to send you an audio recording of it so that you can practice, or would you just like to stick to your lemonade on the porch?

Happy Birthday!
