No offence taken, invisiman . My gripe is with the moderation on here, rather than yourself. Still annoyed with it today, TBH... ~Phewl.

Just to add... this really doesn't look to me as if it's drunken behaviour bad enough to warrant banning? http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f46/sa...6/#post5839009 http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f5/tia...ml#post5839006 http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f5/com...ml#post5838997 Though the thread I...

My DAC was monitored for the first 24 hours, then left on 24/7. Has been powered off twice since January, I think... If it's good for the first few hours, and from a reputable source, the chances are it'll work very well for many hours to come. ~Phewl.

/me waves , and is quite drunkererered. Am drunk, but often happy to help. Not heard from you for a while, Mr Chum. Worked in IT for years, doing repairs to laptop motherboards for a good part of it, as well as mobile phone repairs. Plenty happy to sort you out, good sir. ~Phewl.

Yes, it's safe to leave it on. Though I'd try not to leave it unattended for the first couple of days, just in case something isn't quite right. ~Phewl.

All my music is stored in:- /media/music/artist - album/track number - track name.extension /media/music/FLAC/artist - album/yadda... So I don't mind navigating through just a directory-based structure. But are there any frontends that will correctly organise music by artist, yet still...

Having just read through all of this, I've realised I'm not nearly as patient as people believe I am. I hope everything comes good soon. ~Phewl.

Am thinking of switching to it, as I've still not grown fond of Amarok 2(I doubt a puke smiley exists that demonstrates how much I dislike it). Does anyone know of any good front-ends for it? Hopefully something similar to Amarok 1.4... Secondly, the last time I had a play with it(a year or...

DAC IC -> DAC opamp -> Headphone amplifier Yes, the opamp used after the DAC IC will change the sonic characteristics given to the headphone amplifier, pre-amplification. ~Phewl.

I started learning on a CG125. After 10 minutes the instructor put me on an ER-5. Passed my test, and was out on my VFR750 the same day(bought it a few weeks earlier). Used it every day for over 3 years(in all weathers) until an old lady wrote it off. Replaced with a Triumph Daytona 955i. I...
