I'd laugh if one of you got stuck with them if the auction didn't go nearly as high as expected. Ebay is a fickle bitch.

No, you don't get it, they've added so many days onto the end of the year they are now taking days away from the typical mid-April vacation week. That hasn't happened around here in the last quarter century. If they add any more days onto the end of the year the kids will have school after the 4th of July. Dan, Sorry to hear that it's SSDD with Mikhail.

Alice Smith - For Lovers, Dreamers & Me No idea where I picked this up so I decided to give it a listen. Nice change of pace so far.

Not to play debbie downer but all he had to do to get those tracking numbers is to hop online and fill out a form and throw in some weights and sizes. Nothing has to be packed. I could do the same right now no USPS's site and say I sent you something. I'd probably push that as the next course of action. Simply state that his inability to get to FedEx to ship the package is BS and that you'll pay for shipping yourself, deduct it from what you owe him and schedule a FedEx pickup for tomorrow. If he balks at giving you the pickup address I'd say you'd have your answer as to whether or not the amp is really ready to ship. Goddamnit I hate his stupid little games.

My wife works in a school and they've missed so many days already (mostly due to the epic ice storm) that the school just announced that any further cancellations will be taken out of school vacation weeks. Talk about a kick in the nuts...

OH NOS! FLURRIES!

A used copy of GT5 - Prologue.

Which could all be shortened to "too little listening time" and then would be most correct. I think in keeping the y1 for work, duet for the soldering rig and Hertsens for the headphone rig I'm pretty well covered though.

Fair enough, one more.

It's not in a condition to be sent anywhere, and when I do get it to that point it's getting sold. I've got too many good sources as it is.

I will not be responsible for the Little Monkey growing up with out a daddy!

Yes, they make a USB receiver module. No idea if it's in stock and I don't have one.

If I had the buffalo in anything resembling travel shape I'd send it down to really fry your brain.

deepak, I'd have a look around before buying something like that on Amazon. There's way too much shady in the watch business for me to buy something that like if there's even a hint at past bad performances. I've found pretty good advice here - Watchuseek Watch Forums - although I shop in a vastly different price category than you.

I'd label it neutral, and damn fast. Outside of that I freely admit that I'm not one to hunt endlessly for the last 1% of purity. It's among the best digital I've heard for sure which puts it up there with the likes of Wadia, Electrocompanient, The Hertsens and others. Could you find something that you might like better, I'm sure of it, but I'd guess it'd be a pretty subtle preference. And no worries about synergy with tube amps and HD650s (although I'm going to dismiss the "tube" aspect), I'll I've really used it with is The Menace and my HD650s. By in large I don't find the Menace to sound like a tube amp so hence the dismissal, it just sounds like a good amp.

Dan, I'm semi-volunteering for the task should you ultimately end up in a bad place with Mikhail. I have a severe dislike for the way you and others have been treated.

From what I understand Peter it is just a pad thing. Smeggy posted about it recently (check back just a few pages).

All hail Queen Vicki!

I've been impressed with the Buffalo that I built. While ultimately it won't unseat the Hertsens as my primary source that's really only for emotional reasons. It's every bit the equal of that DAC, which has been pretty well received by those who've heard it.

Worst comes to worse get the chassis back and we'll have fun putting something in it.

Mine as well.
