  1. Apple lossless is it! Nothing but! One thing has me worried though. Are you implying that you are taking cd's that you've previously ripped to 320 and upconverting them to 1411? How exactly are you doing this because if you're doing it straight from the mp3(320) file you are NOT improving the sound quality at all. In fact you would be doing nothing but wasting hard drive space.
  2. I still use a Nikon FE2 and a Canon EX-EE as my main SLR's. I've lusted over a Leica for years and I vow to own one before too long. This is just plain gorgeous.
  3. My girlfriend and I both triathlon and I eat whatever I want. 135lbs. I simply can't gain any weight....I've tried.
  4. 120GB of storage running 24 tracks of 24/192 might get you a song or two. I love my MOTU 896HD and two of those will handle almost any recording siuation one could imagine. If I had almost $20,000 to spend I think I would go a different route.
  5. Are you guys POSITIVE that the 40GB PS3's play SACD discs. I only assume they don't since they removed the SACD logo from the machine. Can some confirm this? This(and the backwards compatibility thing) is what has been holding me back from a purchase.
  6. I predict Pyro is a BSG fan. My scenario could cost as little as $2300...and it makes music fun again.
  7. I thought CBS was just airing heavily edited reruns. I watched the entire first season in two sittings and found it to be pretty compelling stuff. I certainly don't think that it is disturbing and gross. You need to watch Nekromantik or Cannibal Holocaust if you want disturbing. Maybe you should give Dead Like Me or Michael Hall's other show Six Feet Under for something dark but not as disturbing.
  8. You've probably missed out on YACHT ROCK as well.
  9. The numbered Maury thing is probably an acetate or a test pressing vs just a promo. It may be unlistenable after 50 or so plays.
  10. If I had $3000 I'd get a Wavelength USB DAC, a Mac Mini & a huge firewire hard drive and be done with it.
  11. And if I remember right when I lived in Houma, La there were Klipsch Heresy speakers and McIntosh electronics at the Ground Pat'i restaurant next to the mall.
  12. When I voted last month at Zilker Elementary School here in Austin there was a pair of either Chorus or Forte speakers mounted up high on the wall.
  13. Switching to an HD DVD from a regular dvd seems to make the audio levels off balance. The center is really low, the sub is too loud, etc. Is there an hd dvd with a setup screen similar to a regular dvd with the thx setup stuff? I have about 20 discs and I can't find a single one that has anything like that. I try to manually set things up with my spl meter but every movie is different. HELP...
  14. Nosvalves don't you mean the Cayin is a glorified PrimaLuna since the Cayin is the one that retials for more $? The whole Cayin/PrimaLuna rebranding thins weems like deja vu...I thought we had this discussion a few years ago.
  15. I've heard the PrimaLuna several times and it's a fine, no-fuss amp. The II is the KT-88 version right? I would opt for that over the I if you're not using a sub.
  16. What is the deal? I LOST a little tick on my frequency bar. How do I have this many posts with ZERO ticks?
  17. I fit my Cornwalls in the back of my 2002 Subaru Impreza Sport Outback. Seats down.
  18. I'm using Firefox. I'm pressing enter after each sentence. Looks good to me. I love Firefox.
  19. I just read a FANTASTIC book on pirate radio titled 40 Watts From Nowhere. I couldn't put it down and read the entire thing in two sittings.
  20. Those newer Maggies that list for $595?! are getting nothing but great reviews.
  21. Eastern Promises Rescue Dawn The King Of Kong Flight Of The Conchords series This American Life series Scratch The Devil and Daniel Johnston New York Doll You're Gonna Miss Me-Documentary about Roky Erickson(13th Floor Elevators)
  22. Where did LP's go? I literally just got home from buying some NEW DOMESTIC VINYL a mile from my house. It never went away people.
