AOS' PACE is a PPA and a DAC in one that is pretty small and takes an optical digital and spdif signal. PM for more info.

my nickname for planescape is 'scrollscape'. though the fallout series is more immediately playable and arguably more 'fun', i agree that planescape as a whole has a deeper universe and overall experience. planescape plays almost more like an adventure game at times than a computer RPG...

Sid Meier's Pirates!

IMO his best work was done with alva noto on vrioon.

well, i preordered today and got the free pewter statue... that thing is tiny. hope the linux binaries come out soon after the retail release.

I've used etys with a melos, gilmore v2, and a ppa and my vote goes to the ppa. AD8610s in all positions.

I think not using windows would be a good reccomendation for head-fiers. If you're a code monkey use an open source OS else use OSX. Note that windows by default upsamples your audio- yuck! not to mention that it (even XP) really acts like a consumer OS circa 99... a lot has changed in five...

I'd recommend a Pentium M model... i get some mad battery life from my dell 8600. I'd also recommend fitting a 7200RPM HD into your budget as that makes a huge difference in terms of perceived speed and responsiveness.

The Nitrogens are a unique cable. I think it's a secret what they do, but the end result is that you'll end up turning your amp up higher. They really sound unlike any other cable I've heard- brutally revealing, great mids, huge bass.

yeah it's mainly 627 in the ground, 8610 in l/r. You can do a 8610 in ground, 627 in the other positions as well, but 627 on ground is my preference.

The PACE is a very good product. I'm still working on the full review, but here's a quick run down vs bel canto dac 2: (remember that the dac 2 is a $1300 DAC and the pace sells for $730 headamp included) so here are some loosely collected thoughts: the PACE sounds like a DAC 2 "light". The...

I took one of those Briggs-Meyer personality tests and got an XXTJ... dunno what that's supposed to mean.

Quote: Originally posted by bhd812 no it would be more of a tease cause you know there will be some good reviews and questions after burn-in. most of these posts don't result in good reviews, but some do. perhaps we need a brag forum for all the "yo i just got X; impression coming...

check the ear-piece connections and the 1/4 plug. The new ear piece connectors look more "authentc" and fit tighter and the new plug is rhodium so it's colored like uh rhodium.
