  1. Nice tkam! And good stuff to you too, Jeff! That sounds like a very good combo.
  2. We just found out which puppy we are getting and these are her breeder mug shots. She is a Portuguese Water Dog known as Big Pi by the breeders because of her chest marking. We pick her up on Saturday. My kids are going to explode when they finally see which one we are getting. That will be fun. I'll post some real pics when we have her home.
  3. One week to my in-laws on a small lake in Northern Michigan and one week in Montana with some friends from Paris. Besides Yellowstone and Glacier, we will also be visiting other Montana attractions such as Todd the Vinyl Junkie and HeadRoom! Montana meet in early August, anyone?
  4. I am assuming that the SACDs I ordered will not be in a box per se, but will have the mini-LP sleeves because that is how 4AD says they are packaging them. I agree that the 4AD "box set" might be something different in that it might be in a box set configuration. In any event, let us know what you hear if they respond to you.
  5. I assumed as much, but the only thing I had read about was the glitchy one. Acoustic Sounds has the box set, but I am not sure if 4AD will ever offer it directly or more cheaply.
  6. I don't know if it is the same thing you are thinking about, but some site had an error that allowed you to sign up for the set for the price of one disc or something. They corrected it and canceled the orders.

  8. Cool pics. I like the second one -- kinda like the angle they used on the Batman TV show when they were at the super villain's lair.
  9. Yeah, my dad lived next door or two doors down from him and they were close friends as kids. My pack-rat dad actually kept some of RCD's drawings of knights, cowboys and gangsters, and we still have them (yes, they are signed). He also sent RCD one or two of the drawings and Diebenkorn wrote back with a friendly note. When the SF MOMA did a Diebenkorn retrospective, the multimedia presentation used the drawings. As for me, I like the Ocean Park series and some of his other work, but have only owned prints not the real deal. Maybe some day. . .
  10. I predict you catch shit for your choice of cable, but put it on the DAC. Are you using the Lavry? Grawk isn't quite ready for it.
  11. Happy birthday dood! Party hearty but don't get arrested or killed or nuthin. Cheers.
  12. Oh snap, that looks good! Never had that one. Better check the other thread to see how much of an appearance.

    DCD on DSD

    Fortunately or unfortunately, they are hybrid stereo only. http://www.4ad.com/news/details-of-re-ma/ That sucks, although this thread reminded me to order them.
  15. Does it look like this: There was another Yamaha on eBay somewhere that had one of these, and there are stylus replacements for Grado G2 and G2+ cartridges. I assume that is the name and maybe you can find info on tracking weight etc somewhere EDIT: Found some other bits. One guy on AudioKarma suggested 1.5 to 1.7 grams and the owner of the TT said he liked 1.7 after trying it out. Then, the Grado info at a site selling stylus said 1-2 grams according to Grado. It is also a moving iron cart, which is cool. Here is the site: http://www.turntableneedles.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=9321
  16. Sweet! Let us know how it sounds SOON!
  17. Or maybe he meant LEO, the band so in love with ELO that their name is an homage and they have a cover of Don't Bring Me Down as a hidden track on their first album.
  18. Are you a fan of the artist or just share the name?
  19. Grats Jack! I am pretty sure I have never heard the HA-2, which I want to remedy one of these days. Enjoy!

    slow forum

    There's a gang sign for the HeadAmp Pico? Respek.
  22. :horsey: :horsey: :horsey:
  23. UE is lame if they don't announce it and get some mileage out of it. They also had some Triple Fi's and other stuff up for grabs, so you'd think they would like to make a little splash out of it.
  24. Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. darkless!
