Dude you definitely need a new schtick.

I don't like reviewing anything that I build.

Using a Singlepower amp for one's head-fi debut has to be about the worst idea I've heard in a long time.

I admit, I'm an unabashed Emily fan.

Yeah, that's kind of a big ouch.

It might also be worth asking Justin if he's got a GS-1 or GS-X. I'm just trying to think of other manufacturers that don't already produce their own home sources.

Clearly we've found the problem here.

If I had that kind of gear I would seek to make alliances with those around me, essentially ensuring that the gear was never left completely alone but always had someone near by. Bottom line, I wouldn't blame you if you didn't want to leave either of those headphone unattended and no amount of suggestions by any of us should sway you.

Yeah, but would he really let someone walk off with them to try on another rig?

Uh, aren't you someone in a position to do something about that?

I would respectfully suggest that when one is trying to entice people into buying a ~$1300 DAC that it would wise to couple it to something other than ~$500 headphone amps. It's going to seem like a mismatch to most folks, even those of us inclined to spend more on our source than amps.

Happy Birthday!

I read a good portion of the Count of Monte Cristo on my iPod Touch via Stanza and it worked great. It has me considering a Kindle if they ever get the book pricing in line.

Absolutely.

My list: Woo stat and balanced amp HR balanced amp Hoping Pete Millett/TTVJ bring something cool Frank's amp, again line permitting It's also my goal this year to drag posty out with us.

It is, in a word, tiny.

Sorry for your loss Ken. We can all raise a glass for him in a few short weeks.

The article I read referred to "rebuild her cognitive impairment" so I'm guessing that she had some semi-severe brain trauma.

Her story is pretty cool too if you haven't read it.

[edit] See Todd above.

You know, I usually fight Jazz tooth and nail, but what a voice!

I'm quite glad right now that my taxes are not this complicated.

I've actually started the following practice - if I need more than 10 I just order a box of 100 from McMaster Carr. The finish on all of their fasteners is better than what is available locally and I don't have to drive to get it (assuming it isn't a rush).

My Brightest Diamond - A Thousand Shark's Teeth followed up with My Brightest Diamond - Bring Me the Workhorse

We hadn't discussed that in a while, but that would certainly work.
