I don't know, if it was me I would simply pick a song that was meaningful to both parties involved. It's about the memory, not how well you do on "Dancing with the Stars".

Those are simply beautiful. All the materials work very well together. A touch of industrial look with the rich look of wood. Nice!

I'll let you know. I will be using a few as soon as they come in.

X2 on the internship. They can be very useful in the inevitable job search. Also a much better reason for not attending than spending too much time on the res.

So what do you guys (and gals) think? A Sony TTS-8000 turntable and Fidelity Research FR-54 arm for $1800 total including shipping. Yay or Nay?

Yep, what he said. I will also keep one in my backpack to run my phone when I forget to charge it (which is more often than not)

I used them in my speaker system in between a musical fidelity (A302) and my TACT S2150. They are definitely more neutral (or clinical depending upon your persuasion) than the MF amp. They are very close to the TACT amp (as expected) but the TACT gives better soundstage depth, better imaging and definitely a smoother treble. The differences are really pretty small and may be due to the direct comnnection between my source and the TACT with no preamp connection. The outlaws used the GS-X as a preamp, so not really a slouch. I do use them for some music listening on the HT, but that system is not really resolving enough with the current speakers to make much of a determination.

Only if you listen on Grate-os

I was thinking the same thing

Only if you dilute it to Avogadro's number.

Woooh, that is sweet. Just ordered three.

So? How is it?

I use the older M200x5 in my HT setup. As far as I know the only major difference between the M200 and M2200 is the M2200 has balanced inputs and the M200 does not. The M2200 came out after they introduced their first pre/pro with balanced outputs. I am very happy with my M200's they provide rock solid service and sound very good in the HT setup. They also run very cool which is important to me as I have them rack mounted in a closet. As far as I recall, their was a nice review of the M2200 that had some power output measurements. It is probably listed on the Outlaw site. As far as customer service, they have always been great. When I bought things used (like 3 of my M200s) they always cheerfully transferred the warranty. I also like their paradigm of building no-frills (looks) components with real value. A lot of their management team came over from NAD.

Have a nice day, in Texas

Oh I don't know, I think it has its place ....

The headmp is better than OK. About as good as on an old Sansui integrated and a NAD preamp, I owned in a previous life. I mainly used an external headamp, but I was going through a lot of different ones at the time so the built-in headamp was used quite often with no lasting scars. I never used the phono-stage so I cannot comment on its quality even If I had heard a Hagerman Bugle.

As a pre it is fairly unobtrusive if you want it to be but it is also very flexible. It has actual tone controls, that really work, but they can be bypassed. It has pre/main outs as Well as a separate subwoofer out with selectable analog bass management (can also be bypassed). The amplifier is quite powerful and quite neutral, lean toward the leaner rather than richer side of neutral. The USB DAC was not very good and my main use was using a computer as source. It also has a MM/MC phono stage but I never used mine since it was in the office. Hope this helps. I believe they have a 30 day trial no questions asked, at least they used to.

As a preamp and amp it is pretty good. Its USB DAC is meh so I sold mine. But for $200 off it is tempting. And you beat me to posting it.

I'm not sure who their target market is with that price tag?

Excellent, I owe you a drink. Wouldn't miss it for the world. Really? You're actually going to have space for members gear? Is that even possible?

There is a DVD for Trinity Revisited but I do not think there is one for the original Trinity Sessions.
