I have a znf3-150 chaintech mb with built-in ViaEnvy sound and the driver also works to allow the use of the wolfson dacs.

Assimilate was one of my favorites also (that and dead eyes opened by the severed heads), into newer stuff now like vnv and das ich and the rest of the metropolis label bands. But gotta pick up the skinny puppy, most of my cd's got stolen so I have to get some new ones. Anyone like scraping foetus?

Got a kick out of that all my friends say the same thing too. The cd's are not bad packaging wise (nice branding between the titles), but for the price you can buy all of the original cd's and get their entire catalog. patrick

Just got these remastered greatest hits cd's, and all I can say is what the...? I have all of their cd's and one or two of their dvd-a's and they are all much more musical sounding. These remasters just seem so cold and lifeless. The original cd's, while not the most detailed put you their right...

Yes, the 9000es is amp and preamp combo. Has anyone here got the aac decoding to work with mp4 files? Another post on the aussie 9000 board was able to use a raw output from their dvd player and decode the aac files on the tae. Interesting.

Anyone listen to any of these or similiar bands such as covenant, das ich, die forme, einsteurze neubauten, hocicio, informatik, laibach, psychic tv, skinny puppy, frontline assembly, wumpscut, morbo, moenia... Looking for new music. Anyone in the Buffalo/Rochester/Fresno/Mexico City areas...

All I can say is that I am complety blown away at the difference in warmth and sibillance between these and the 575's I had before them. Now a few questions...what first? Current Source- Denon DCM-560 changer at work Sony DVP-S7700 with EAD DSP7000/Monarchy DTI/Cardas Lightening at home...
