So, I was checking Metrum website and found a new DAC model called Flint. It seems that it has the same two modules that they use on amethyst. There's no much info out there except some board images. I reached them by mail and got a couple pictures that I now share with you: The facts I...

Amazing info here, thank you!   I was only using youtube until now...

Really love this song and her voice:  

Drowning in my own tears originally from Ray Charles, covered by Derek Trucks   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUjdqjwQ7nc

Mezzanine (Massive attack) Inception OST (Hanz Zimmer) Medulla (Bjork) Waltz for Debby (Bill Evans) Sgt Peppers (The Beatles) Mozart Requiem (any version that i have in hands)   Any album by Tommy Bennet Anything that i have in my hands from Ella fitzgerald and Bill Armstrong Any album...

 I'm not that sure about this statement, I mean, a guy that spends thousands on audio gear should love music too...

Mmmmm.. INN (in nose nosephones?)   Besides the yikes factor, not being able to take air in with your nose is one of the most uncomfortable thing in one's life.

From sennheiser px100 price point all is diminishing return imho. also is not only about the cost, is about the complexity of the setup. Bulky portable rigs with external amp/dac+player are the living image of diminishing return...

There are people who love to listen music, and can enjoy it without caring about the gear used to reproduction...   And people who love to listen music, but prefer it with quality and detail...   And also there are guys in mid life crisis, buying expensive gear to aim for...

You really should listen to this iconic band: Soda Stereo (argentina) Gustavo Cerati speaks a very clear spanish (with some mild argentinean accent) and the music is amazing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vfJ29RJU2w Suerte con aprender español!
