Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up
Jan 24, 2024 at 3:17 AM Post #137,296 of 153,748
I have a 15 year old niece who has just started to really engage with music. Probably 90% of what she listens to is via spotify, through ear buds. But she’s also into “vinyls” and one of the most rewarding listening sessions I’ve had this past year was spinning records late night with her over Christmas on her all-in-one turntable with built in speaker (and Bluetooth for streaming!). She has a mini collection of lps, some ‘her music’ and some stuff I’ve given her, and we’d spin something from hers, something from mine, etc. and now we’re trading streaming playlists. Her ‘vinyl player’ subjectively sounds like crap. But damn was that a good time listening to music.
Those times are the best! Savour them (as you are apparently already doing!)

OUT FOUL SPIRIT! OUT! I CAST THE EVIL CLASS D(EMON) FROM YOUR SYSTEM! IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS AUDIOPHILE, I CAST YOU OUT NEVER TO RETURN! 😮
I have to admit to being delighted with my Bifrost, Saga running a KJF Audio class D power amp into AE Aegis 3 speakers , works great with my preferred musical choice of predominantly live music

Got this in a daily "specials" email. How to tell me that you don't care without stating explicitly that you don't care 😏. The reseller is best known as a huge reseller of photography equipment. ...or have I been grossly over-paying for headphones these past 2 years? 😱

The true cost-no-object accessories for Porsches are their option list, but not just the regular option list where you can add over $100k to a base Boxster, but the secret menu and the off-menu items: CXX being secret-menu, and the $2k photobook of your car being manufactured being the off-menu item because you have to know to ask for it.
I had dinner with an old friend whilst in the Bay Area last week. He revealed that his electric Boxter (his fourth Boxter, first electric) is due in November. Didn't specify what extras are on it.......

USB C only.

If you want more selection of input, pay $59 more for a seperate Modi.
Already have a Modi+, and currently paired with a Heretic. Would have been cool to downsize into a single unit with the Unity, but I do need optical for when I play PS5. Oh well.

Only other option would be Fulla or Hel+. Both have optical inputs.

A GT3 and a Panamera sure. A Taycan… hell No! :)
Expensive cars aren't my thing; most expensive I ever got was a Genesis.

That said, have you spent significant time driving one (Taycan)?
