I guess it could be DAC'd, ADC'd, then DAC'd again in the above circumstance. It seems illogical for windows to convert the signal to analog for processing, however, as it would just eat up cycles for no reason. My understanding was that kmixer processed the signal in the digital domain. Best to skip it altogether, if possible. ASIO straight to the soundcard.

That's like leaving his coat on a chair in the meet room and calling it "attending"

This just in. Ingwe smokes stems.

So, wait, does that mean that no matter what John E Woven is attending? At least we have a venue, then.

Ah, magic goatse. Such refinement.

Ooh, neat. Sound quality concerns aside, that's a pretty innovative potentiometer implementation

Yeah, that dog'll hunt.

Lead prices are skyrocketing. Have you considered old textbooks? If we're being honest with each other, we both know it's going to flame out sooner than later, and textbooks really make a grand spectacle when it does.

Suggestions for a better advertisement: "You can't roll a joint on a download" "No one knows you discovered the iPod" "We haven't figured out how to lose money on this yet" "Relive the night you were conceived"

Yeah, I see that. At a certain point, the inherent distortion is at a higher level than the induced distortion. In other news... you've got a fast car.

Esau Mwamawaya and Radioclit -- The Very Best You want to listen too? It's free.

I maxed out at about -30 on test tones and -18 on music. Pretty average, even on top shelf gear (not here, maybe, but in general)

Curiously enough, I do remember my first download. 1999, downloaded a .wav of the song "creep" off a website I found on askjeeves.

^^^ I'm not totally sure how this works, but I think that kid is gay now.

sounds like you got SARNed, beelee.

I have a very attractive and enjoyable gas box set I bought on a whim. Think I'll cue it up right this effing moment.

I say this with all possible respect, Westrella. Please, don't be hunting for headphones when you're in Manilla. Be enjoying Manilla with any time you have.

The Sounds -- Dying to Say This To You May as well make that bigger, eh?

These are all solid points. In my mind they were difficult to place because very small changes in positioning resulting in major changes in sound. That constantly gave me the impression that I could be getting more out of them, but I am really anal that way. Someone less obsessive than I could certainly achieve very satisfactory performance out of them in a variety of rooms.

I'm going to have to phrase this carefully not to sound like everyone on HF... but here goes. You might not be getting everything out of those MG 1.6s I really strongly believe they need more room to reach their full potential than you are giving them. That is certainly not to say that they don't sound good, but they might be able to sound better. Most important is distance from sidewalls, in my opinion, with distance from listening position falling after that. Just something to consider. They're still a great bargain, and they scale awfully well.

QFT. The more the better. My 17x12 room was insufficient for the mg12 I had, which were 17 x 51 x 1.5. I heard them later in a bigger room and they sounded much better. You want them well away from walls and corners, and well away from the listening position if possible. They are a pain in the butt to place correctly, IMHO.

You live in a fake world.

I'm fairly certain the archetypal Dickensian pauper did not possess a discontinued pair of statement-level Austrian earspeakers and a B22.

The production wasn't, at least. The prototype was not anything special. You would have to suss out (based on vintage) whether the SS-1 has the proto-style boards, or the production boards.

Nice Ralph Wiggum reference, however. At least he had the dignity to go down in 5% style.
