I want an SW51+, just don’t know how to get one. Contacted him but no response.

@Mithrandir41 i love my crack, but one channel isn’t working.

@Melvillian I had the same problem. It was a capacitor.

Really, he's usually very quick to respond to PM.

@Skyline what do you think of the 2018 remix?

I'm a fan of all the remixes, really. If I had a complaint, I'd say they boosted the bass a hair too much on some of the tracks, but my preferences lean towards being a bit bass shy anyway.

I don't listen to the Beatles much but love abbey road lots

This has been fun discussion thanks very much @Melvillian for kicking it off.

isn't the short, simple answer that... balanced and unbalanced audio run at different voltages. Hence: transformer.

Balanced is higher voltage because you have two 2V signals. Add them up and you have 4V. You want to ground the inverted signal safely so you need a transformer to isolate from your source. That’s the simplest way I can explain it.

No, what speakers will you use?

Harbeth P3ESR. I’ll probably be wfh for the rest of the year so I figured I should have a desktop speaker setup

Marv was right about how resolving the DAC is. Separates everything really well. I’m coming from an SDAC and this thing is better in every way.

I wouldn't call it laid back. It's more that everything sounds very effortless. I've been very annoyed with my Gungnir Multibit lately because after spending some time with vinyl at friend's house, the Gungnir Multibit is just way too in your face and "boosted". That's why these qualities in the Yggdrasil were immediately noticeable

This is the same DAC they integrated into the Massdrop x Cavalli amps, yes? Hm. Makes me wonder if their primary demographic also happens to be fun of the AIO device, haha.

I bet that Cavalli hybrid sounds pretty good for the money

Ive seen one for sale and it sold in minutes, Ive been looking for one to try as well.

Wait on it. The screen upgrade on the Samsung Odyssey and Vive pro is pretty amazing. The best system for games is PSVR right now, though.

Camera based tracking headsets that are better than windows MR are coming, though.

Yeah I’m most definitely going to wait even though it’s very tempting to get one for cheap. Is PSVR the best for games because of their games catalog?

I would order more than one. They work great, but they don’t always last long before they don’t hold the KCS-75 very tightly. At least mine. YRMV. But really comfortable and sound good.

Another headband solution (and another comparison with the PortaPro) here: http://www.superbestaudiofriends.org/index.php?threads/3-portable-on-ears-koss-portapro-senn-px100-ii-akg-k403.5303/#post-173197

More bass.

Was just watching season 2 of BB and Walter said “Jesse” in an angry tone haha
I appreciate how BCS is entertaining without as much “drama”. The writing and acting are excellent. Watching Mike do his thing is a lot of fun. So clever

Definitely prefer BCS!

@murphythecat Been watching Breaking Bad again and I feel the same. Walt under the influence of anything is a self destructive moron. He’s so annoying

@brencho like this? https://goo.gl/Z7tdwF

Lets beat a dead horse: time for Hellboy 3!

I should check it out whenever I have time... preferably tonight if I can pull away from my projects. Thanks for the hint! ;)

Mr. Bernie

Haha yeah. You got that right?i think that would give it away for me if I was that guy

Yet...

This to me is even more impressive. The way it checks it’s balance like a living thing.

How I long for the days of Tom Servo & Crow

I'd recommend the book, if you're into reading good Sci-fi. Haven't watched the show yet, but do know a few key elements were changed.

Great production value, just luscious. That script though...ugggh. After accepting that, I've enjoyed it more.

+1 on the book. Pretty decent read.

what a load of crap, kind a like having a dolby sticker on it

You mean THX?

It's about being a rock/rap musician where it's against the law to be one. Great stuff that was shot without permission in Iran.

Some time later... I skipped most of the making, but was fascinated by the using!

@Thad E Ginathom skip to 1:18:00 in the second video I linked. It's pretty cool stuff

Thanks... will take a look later :)

With Valve I expect it’s a case of “fail early, fail often” so that by the time it’s needed it has been iterated upon enough to make it a robust and useful product. By that time there’ll be years worth of back catalogue accessible on there too. Still a shame that decades of Win32 software will become even more innaccessible.

I hope all those short sighted people who took the piss out of Tim Sweeney for raising the alarm on this stuff a year or two ago are starting to feel pretty silly now.

This is bad. W10, as much as I despise it is still a semi-open OS that when stable performs very well. If Microsoft wants to force "S Mode" on users, you know what time it is. I sort want W8 Pro back, such a flexible OS...
