    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    I love the ADV Model X so far. They sych up easy, plug into my ear easy, and sound superb.

    Post Your Photography Here #2

    I like using manual lenses.  I think most of these were done with a D40, and the last one maybe a D1x.   Pacifica, CA 105mm f/4   Norway 50mm f/11     Kentucky 85mm f/4   55mm f/2.8

    Radiohead

    New single is out today; Burn the Witch youtube it.   I like it.  More like the OK Computer/KidA Radiohead.

    Case for next amp project....

    I got the powdercoating gun out.  What do you think?  It's a little blotchier than I was looking for.

    Need some pointers for my first amp build

    You have it correct.  AGND is the virtual ground created by the voltage divider resistors in the power supply section.

    Need some pointers for my first amp build

    The cap you linked in the post above will certainly work fine.  The tangent website says that 0.1uF is not ideal as the bass cut-off is marginal.  A larger capacitance will push the cutoff lower and help your bass, but they get pretty large in a hurry, so look closely at the physical size.  If...

    Need some pointers for my first amp build

    Yes, I was talking about the radioshack protoboard.   The cap C2 on the input, along with the resistor R1 act as a hipass filter.   http://tangentsoft.net/audio/cmoy/tweaks.html#caps     Something like this, perhaps?   Not to large (17.5mm).  Maybe tomb can chime in.  Choosing parts isn't...

    Need some pointers for my first amp build

    Since you're already going to pay for shipping, I'd go ahead and get the TLE2426 rail splitter if you're going to be using the battery.     And for the C2 cap, I'd look for something in the 0.3-1.0uF range since space isn't going to be that tight for you.     Jeg reiser til Norge i August...

    Need some pointers for my first amp build

    I would get a couple other R3 values up through 4.7kohm so you can fine tune the gain.  They're cheap.   If I'm reading things correctly, the 2nd pot you have listed is pretty large (about an inch in diameter)?       Decoding the part numbers on the pots is a nightmare.

    What Are You Listening To Right Now?

    Tiny Ruins-Some were meant for sea   I heard this song when watching a documentary out of New Zealand about the Air NewZealand crash of flight 901 into Mt Erebus which is in Antarctica.  Erebus Operation Overdue (pretty well done) is available on youtube.   It's about the small town policemen...

    Mark Knopfler

    I've been a fan for years.  After picking up an acoustic guitar and finding my style, I find it really pleasing that he picks with his fingers--sounds different and IMO a lot more versatile in the tone and delivery than someone who relies solely on a guitar pick--from subtle to bold.   He...

    Watches - another passion of ours, it seems...post your pics!

    I'm more thankful to have a dad that is sentimental to the point of being pushy.  "Here!  Take this and wear it for a couple of months!"  He's a guy that knows how to play the long game.   He bought it back when it was known as a rugged watch.  I think $250 (from a guy that came back from...
