Oh, I figured that. I simply don't bitch enough on HC, so I wanted to rectify that.

WTF??? There are a few people waiting for BAs. And now he's introducing a new amp?

That is something that I would find useful as I do have a transporter.

I do not specifically need the headphone out, that waqs more a comment in using it as a more all-in-one solution. In what way, other than the equalization options, would the ultracurve be better than the ultramatch for doing AD conversions? I'm really interested because I will be doing some vinyl archiving this summer. I would love to get a unit that does 24/192 but those are significantly more money than I want to spend on this right now.

Welcome to headcase. Thanks for the information, it is interesting. Let me know if you need me to roundhouse kick anyone in the face. Carry on.

Yep. One of the best comments I have read on the Fi in a while. Thanks. It was a lot of fun.

Well if anyone is interested in who didn't finally show up you can see some impressions HERE. You should at least check out Grawk's oh-so-subtle comment.

Nice.

Well, if it was, what color ransom would you prefer?

Oh, I'm just doing it out of curiosity.

Not married eh?

I'm probably going to load SAS on it and then run some data sets through on it and my workstation. SAS writes both total time and processor time into the log file for each procedure and the total run. Should be interesting. I probably won't get around to doing that before the summer though.

@Nate - The offer is greatly appreciated but head-fi member vdukeman is a vice-president at Busey Bank so our meeting rooms are totally free of charge. We will not be raffling off anything nor will I be selling any of my gear at the meet. BTW, the package will go out tommorrow now that I found the power plugs.

It is cute, but the OS has me concerned.

I was unable to attend Chiunifi-2 as I am a most excellent procrastinator. I was still working on my poster presentation on that Saturday for the meeting I was flying to on Sunday. I was going to send the shirts up with someone else, but nobody is really close to Charleston. @Aura - Black/Orange it is

Actually Terre Haute is more like west-central Indiana and it is convenient to Charleston, IL, but then again Charleston is not the center of the universe either.

OK, a special deal for head-casers attending Yes, We Cans 2009. I have some Head-Case tee shirts in the following colors (Shirt/Lettering - # Shirts) Gray/Black - 1 White/Black - 2 Black/Purple - 2 Black/Orange - 2 Black/Black -1 (Dusty Chalk Approved) Please post your color preferences in this thread. The cost is your attendance at the meet (i.e. you have to pick up the shirt from me at the meet). Carry On.

Happy Birthday oh Keeper of the Ingwe

I've been using my latest Braun for almost 10 years. It works like a charm, is reliable and blade/head changes are easy. The cleaning works great, I do not clean it after every shave, but more like once every two weeks or so. I simply loosen the head and turn it on to remove loose hairs after every shave. I go through maybe 4 cleaning refills a year, not really a significant expense compared to my audio related expenses. I do change the blade/head every year, but that is shaving every day.

Yep, my plan is to relocate it into a case that matches the PSU so there will be no more little jokes ...

I liked it a lot when I last listened to it a lot, which was back in 2003. Then we moved and I lost it for a "while". I rediscovered it a few months ago but it had a bad headphone jack and had to be repaired. Plus I never discovered its original power supply. Any way, it sounds good now but that is with minimal listening time. I will be comparing it to the desktop portable which I do like, so we will see. I'm also bringing it to the meet this weekend so it will be interesting to see what others think.
