  "At this point it becomes a subjectively guided tone-control exercise, not a calibration." I am starting to think there might be a point.

  Found 2 very interesting looking DIY tube-amps. One OTL and another EL84 SE amp. So much to learn!

    Shall I compare thee to an Asahi Kasei? Though art more lovely and more multibit.

  Finally, back to Multibit. Got a great deal on a Bifrost. Should be fun comparing it to Modi 3.

  So many Schiits for sale Modi, Bifrost and Gungnir. Will need upgraded to get them current.

  Received the THX 789 today. First impressions... it is "ok". Not all that different from the ADI-2 headphonejack. Need more samples.

    Neil Blomkamp isn't his own cinematographer, he uses a dude named Trent Opaloch who I've met, super nice guy. He most recently shot Infinity War and Endgame.

    @PTS , most def. District I was fantastic and Elysium was a sci-fi film about healthcare, and Chappie just sucked. I'd like him to get away from social allegory and just tell a good story

    I just like the way he makes robots look and feel. His output has been patchy, it is true.

    I had few issues while playing hi res files, not always but sometimes,when on Wifi using Roon and hence moved to wired connection for it.

    Makes sense. I have been pretty impressed how responsive it has been on Redbook files.

    Exactly what I was going to ask, Zonto.
    No wonder, then. Only down 12dB at 100Hz.
