@wbass as long as the connectors are rhodium plated and go up their butts.

Good ideas here. I think the new FV should aim to be the first OAL (Output Amp Less)

Matrix X-Sabre

That's what I thought.

I think the Matrix X-Sabre is the only DAC I've heard that actually didn't sound any different SE or balanced

42 days with A1's but now A2 cards are back and warmed up. I really don't want for much from this system. It does what I want when I want. Schiit's swappable things are magnifico.

Folkvangr AND Urd now. Your other event wasn't really that important, was it?

You're right, screw it. My 73-year old mother can pickup herself up from LAX.

Book her an Uber

I was too late to check the last James Brown and Prince concerts in the early 2Ks. Janelle Monae was my redemption.

That zone between realism and despair gets murky. If we despair, then ... well, the monsters have won.

My makeup concert is Opeth/Mastodon on Wednesday. Hopefully work doesn't f**k me over.

I do. It's scratchy at first but there's always interesting moments as it oscillates along toward the final sound.

I've heard people tell me that it changes everyday until it's fully there, and not always in a positive direction until fully warmed-up

Yup. That's always the interesting part. Some days during warm-up are yuck and then the next day it'll be good

A like for the not being injured part; and a big yikes for the first part…

Glad you survived that!

I lost at least one of my nine lives slipping on lava rock in Hawaii so my total is down to at least 7 by this point. Or I should just buy a lotto ticket.

Yeah. Vaporization sounds preferable to them vs scrounging in the hinterlands for radioactive berries before ultimately being killed by bandits or ARS.

I don't think it's people want to die. It's people don't want to die a slow painful death via radiation poisoning and sickness or whatever.

On top of that, if 95% of the world was destroyed by nuclear war, life would look vastly different. All modern stuff would be useless pretty soon. Society would probably degrade to people running around killing each other or something equally bleak.

I recently learned of the story of Ouchi Hisashi and how he ended up living in a dead body for months after exposure to lethal radiation. I'd honestly rather live, but between the choice of a quick death with some dignity and an ignoble protracted decaying where you KNOW there isn't hope of convalescence, I have an idea of which I'd prefer. That said, f**k war and the people who push for it.

I did the same. And also played via my pal's PS5. PS must be the way to go..

The pc version is real bad. Running the series x version on a tv with vrr or the ps4 version on a ps5 is the only way to not have stuttering constantly

I have no issues running it on PC. On top of that I'm streaming it from my PC to Nvidia shield over Ethernet. I'm about 10 hours in so far and I love it.

Best submarine film I've seen, nothing comes even close.

@Wilson Hell yes!

It is superb. And having grown up with the British films of the post-war era, so refreshing to see the other side of the story.

@Vtory Welp, on Sunday he blew a driver on his Sus after adding too much EQ.

Oh, that's too bad. He must've been a little more careful. Sounds like he didn't make sure 0dbfs out was in the safe zone.

Thankfully he's rich enough to afford the repair or buy another pair outright.

I think @Armaegis was looking for cards

@Cspirou that was for a Lyr3 card, but I found one a few months ago. Thanks for thinking of me though!

Would Black Widow count? Or Liquid Gold X? The original Liquid Gold to me sounded like a refined Jot 2, although perhaps slightly less upfront.

Black Widow and most Cavalli amps in general are more on the laid back side.

Folkvangr, but comes with smooth highs.

A lot of the congestion has burnt off about a week in. Plankton materializing in a big way. All the tape hiss lol

16 days since power up, mostly stable. Some minor stuff happening, but it's less and less difference every day.

Pretty much my experience.

Please count me in!

Saw this just before: https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/zmf-aeolus-sapele.11899/

Reached out to them. Thank you sir

Picked those up. Appreciate the tip!

Ampsandsound Kenzie or Mogwai. Mogwai if you want to tube roll, Kenzie if you want a euphoric, more romantic tone.

Don't forget T3!

Lyr 2?
