@CEE TEE and I accidentally used a pair of AES/ EBU cable when setting up an amp at one of our houses recently. We couldn't get the system to sound right and gave up. When breaking it down, I noticed the cables were AES/ EBU. Swapping over to normal cables fixed the off-sound.

@YMO - give me some free money and I could just blind buy all the cables instead of double checking this stuff on SBAF

No @penguins I'll give you money for hookers.

Don't force it. Come back later.

Cause you didn't call me last night.

Don't think Montreal smoked meat is affected.

Meanwhile the developing world has 4-6x as many people (depending on definition) with near 0 regulations (in practice) about how they can cook and heat their food...

In b4 developed world has more carbon footprint anyways - yes we do, but I bet it's not due to our use of gas stoves... and would a ban really fix much of anything?

I also wonder if this is going to negatively impact health in the long run in terms of how things are able to be cooked and having to have (even) more processed foods which will probably hurt more than a marginal amount of gas stove pollution.

But IDK and maybe this is a bit of a stretch.

The dishwasher has worked well over here.

Washing machine in a delicates bag so they don't catch on anything. Then hang the bag on a rack or line to dry them.

If faux leather, I just soak a rag in a heavily diluted dishwashing liquid solution and pat gently. Use a separate dry rag to pat dry.

If velour or similar, hand wash under a running tap with the suds from a laundry bar or more dishwashing liquid.

Audio related we may be able to help. Life journey, perhaps not so much.

Never mind…thought you’re asking about the regular 600

I use either a furutech diy cable (whatever their headphone wire was before they discontinued), and Forza noir mk2. Both copper, seems to be a good fit. With an older chain/JAR 600 I had enjoyed silver though, but I think that particular model was a bit darker due to original owner preferences expressed to Jupiter.

I use a silver ZMF Atmos cable

I didn't expect the HE-560 to go well with the SW-51 either, but I finally tried it.. and I didn't have any issues with it.

Did you listen to it in Cha's Bedroom?

Conversations ranged from
1. I don't know how to turn this on - ma'am this battery icon means you need to charge it first - she then became noticibly agitated
2. Not believing staff about why the storage needs to be backed up before replacing the phone
3. Not understanding that the iphone is not the same as their current android phone

And yes, macbook not used for serious storage.

"You're also more technically adept than the other customers in the store that day"

True, it was the day job for the last part of my career. I'm modestly clever with computers, including the small one in my pocket.

Oddly, I'm pretty dumb with /phones./ Just watch me trying to call a new contact or to get the bluetooth in the car working...

...Still embarrassed at the woman who had to tell me, "This is a video call!" She must have been fed up with looking at my ear wax, which is not my best point, lol.

But the people who made all this possible belong to generations even older than mine.

I agree that there was some confusedness™ in the construction of that sentence.

Edited because I wrote this while I was really tired and annoyed at the airport and ya sentence structure was messed up

I can confirm that the final version of your message was significantly delayed.

spread some dirt around, Diatomaceous earth will make them dry up and die...

I had this problem at the start of the year. If it's still summer where you live they don't like being left in the sun. Put the headphones somewhere sunny but close to shelter for the ants to escape to. Make sure the cups are facing toward the sun. They will freak out for a bit then gradually leave.

Put the headphones in a bowl of water. That will get rid of the ants.

(Actually there are sensible versions of this advice. At one place I lived, used to keep the bed legs in saucers of water. No ants in the bed)

This is only because you been listening to me for advice.

I think they've done some work with the recommendation engine. I notice it more when mobile because at home Roon is still in front of everything.

But yea, let's blame the Russians!

Like AWS (Amazon Web Services), when CloudFlare makes a big mistake a ton of web sites go down.

Actually I’m on good terms with Danny and he said they have some new gear for us in the next couple weeks. I don’t know what though. They’re super nice people.

The one time I stopped by the Raal booth last LA CanJam they were indeed very nice. No attitude.

@purr1n lol you're confusing RAAL with Abyss. RAAL powers all their gear at meets with RME DACs for heaven sake. They do pay a lot of attention to head-fi but they've been very kind to my requests for loaners, and also very responsive about a recent amp I didn't even buy new, but bought used, They're taking a look at it for free. Hopefully I can get one of the CA headphones from them for a loaner!

Check if Tony's ok

Thinking it was probably this guy: https://44.media.tumblr.com/34291760cebfb86a55f5fcf3413ca62d/tumblr_p1hd8eOBof1spkic4o3_540.gif

Let me into your bedroom and I’ll stop.

@YMO , people who send me texts after 8PM get responses at 3:45 AM.

> 4 Double IPAs = 8 PM bedtime for me.

@crazychile IPAs are for people with no taste

Crypto? Yes, like a basket of hyped penny stocks.

I'm just guessing it is really pop, esp. when folks I know ask my opinion.

Will not comment more b/c I suspect whatever I say will result in the web crawlers picking it up and spamming us with it. But let's just say clear minded me thought it was convincing but amazingly stupid.

Let me come to your house.
