Well I did a thang the other day. I've thought about streamin since I've got Amazon Prime but never tried it. Soooo, a couple years ago when I was putting together this rig. I made a phone call to one of the best boardmen in the business only to get laffed at again. I asked about a Schiit Mani phono stage and was told he knew both guys and they made some good schiit. 125$ and it's done exactly what it should do. It pukes it's a Puffffffin next time.
Wasn't calling him again for more abuse (lol) so ordered a Schiit Modi+ DAC to see if it would work. Here in 3 days from TX and plugged it up this morning. That was after a short search for that 25' patch cord I had layin here for sumpin. Don't ask cause I dunno. lol Well, I do but nm. lol
Long story short this thing sounds crazy good running thru the PrimaLuna and into the LS w/o the JBL SP128S fired up. NOW I can get off my rear, have tunes cookin and get some work done around here instead of worrying about flippin lp's all the time. I'm sure the 2k DAC's have their advantages but this hits the spot for me.
I'll NEVER stop spinnin cause I know the difference but it does scratch that itch. Well worth the $150 imo. So much for being pathetically worthless. "Git 'er done!"
@Marvel @JohnJ @Tarheel and the rest who might wonder about a quick fix. It really IS some good Schiit.

Any experience with this cartridge?
Zero here but the man to ask is @MicroMara. The guy w/327 carts and the 25 arm turntable WITH the dust brush. 😂 That table of his is a piece of art and he's fun to play with too. Doesn't eat much either. He'll surface.
Some of the other guys will step up I'm sure. I'm the dumb red-headed step brother in the gaggle and just stir the pot a lot.
Waits... I KNOW the comments are coming! Ruthless bunch in here!

@Marvel Naturally she's sold out in Cbus next week. Might take a rund down depending on the weather and find a tour case to park on if the planets are aligned. No way am I doing a GA event. Back in the day I'd have 4 tickets fo sure. Gotta share the love.
Like 32$ originally and now the scalpers have jacked resale tickets to up around 100-150 per for a GA ticket??? Sad back in the day but now? Blah!

Waiting for you to give a review...
Welllll, their Mani does a nice job for the price. The Modi+ is just another toy so we'll see how it goes. I could go w/a Puffin or a more expensive dac but I won't use the dac too much. The Puffin is down the road. I'll let ya all know.

Monday my mail dude tapped on the front picture windown so I went out. There it was from TX to Ohio over the weekend? Totally clueless. Yea, it's laying here. Blah. 😂

Oh, and about 3 more weeks here at the beach.
Don't forget to bring a pressie home from the beach for Chuckie! Beach ball for the hot tube? Just something to share the love. 😂
Don't worry about the neighbors and gain. Prolly the first time they really heard a system cook. Upper 70's around here today. Got my spring cleaning done. Blew almost every teensie wittle bit of dust out thru the french doors. Bwa ha ha... Sounded great too!
Ok, no @grasshopper yet so gonna have to nose and see if I have his number. I'm thinkin somewhere between Dave1290 & Dave 1291. That doesn't work I'll have to call the Sheriff's office down there and have 'em do a welfare check when they get down that way. Cat's may have got him. 😂 😂 😂

Rain thru last night and hit 71 this afternoon. Didn't have to wait too long this morning on death row's blood draw. Don't know who the vamp was that hit me but after about 4 sticks she deicded to drill a new hole in my arm. Started the coffee before I left and I'm into the 2nd pot. That's about enough excitement for one day.

All quiet in Duckburg. Low 70's today and turning up the heat to the mid's this week. Just about time to kick back and see how the neighbors enjoy a lil Miles Davis hittin the high notes.
Thought about a trip to Cbus today for the spring football game but blah. Fox covered it nationwide, which was the first time ever. 80k in the place, studs all over the field, coaching changes, formers coming back to strut their gold and diamands from the NFL and a couple Super Bowl rings? Don't need me w/my pom poms. 😂
Yea, the games a changin for sure. We'll see what shakes out after the Spring version of the NIL, which opens on the 16th and closes on the 30th. People seem to be over-looking that one lil thing that can change the face of a team. They're not showin 'em anything anyway. Just a scrimmage w/bands and fans. I will go on record with this. You think Marvin Harrison was a great wide receiver? Jerimaih Smith IS the REAL DEAL. This freshman is making unreal catches already and hasn't even hit the weight room. He's gonna be truly amazing IF he can stay healthy.
Bloodwork Monday morning. I'm taking my mug and won't leave that place when the vamps are done til it's FULL! Yea, think I'm addicted.
Carry on!

Some hitting the spring NIL portal, which closes soon then we'll be set for fall.
NCAA has hit blue, which resolves one of the cases against them during the Harbaugh tenure. Still haven't reached anything on the "Spygate" cheating scandal and basically Jimbo is taking his khaki's to the NFL with brother John and won't be back after 9 years at the helm.
Here's a good read on one of their first cases invoving recruiting during the Covid Dead time. Coach Moore is paying for Jimbo's infractions and there's more? lol
