For the last few years, Montreal Head-Fiers have had a meet at the Salon Son et Image in late March at the Place Bonaventure. In fact, I just got an E-mail from the show, informing me that the show is coming up!   Papomaster has been organising the meet and display, though after the last...

I'll be there, but I won't be able to stay for as long each day as I have in the past, due to performances on those three days. I will probably leave my stuff, though, and ask that it isn't taken, if this isn't too much to request.   The gear I'll bring:   AKG K701 Buffalo II DAC...

Vive le DAC!   Après des heures d'ineptitude, j'ai activé un bouton.   Du son glorieux!

Du courage ! Néanmoins, j'espère avoir mon DAC dans une condition écoutable pour le meet. Si non, je serai très déçu.   Le beta22 ne sera pas dans un bon état. Qui ne me plaît pas. Pas grand chose que je peux faire juste maintentant : j'ai besoin de travaille.      Quote:

Though that which is made can be classified under the other topics (DIY amps are, after all, amps), having a DIY section would simplify searching and consolidate information, some thing which this site needs: there is SO much brilliant knowledge that is floating about Head-fi.org, but is often...

The Buffalo II DAC came and I soldered it. But there are four important resistors missing. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! I told this to TPA and Brian has sent them --- but will they get here in time? If not, they'll arrive just a few days late.   Pray to the postal gods! Pour libations of...

When the first person arrives, I shall be there. Unless I'm late. Which I won't be of course, seeing as "a wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins, nor is he early: he arrives precisely when he means to!"

I'll attend on the fourteenth of August, which seems to be the agreed-upon date.   The Buffalo is being shipped as I type this, so it should be ready for the meet.   As to location, I'm still happy to have it at my flat, which is fairly downtown (Dr. Penfield). As there was mention of...

I'd go for the fifteenth.

JUNE - 19 20 Not the 20th. - 26 27 Probably not. JULY - 3 4 Available. - 10 11 Available. - 17 18 Available. - 24 25 Available. - 31 Available. August - 1 Available. - 7 8 Available. - 14 15 Available. - 21 22 Available. - 28 29 Available.  ...

I wish the twisted pear guys would hurry up and send me my Buffalo! It would be a shame to have a meet and not be able to listen and compare with other sources and DACs.   No matter, this is turning in to a good sized meet: sounds great!

Speaking of speakers, I have been looking in to potentially making a pair, that I might use them for when headphone listening is not appropriate. My searches lead me to Troels Gravesen's DTQWT, http://www.troelsgravesen.dk/JA8008_DTQWT.htm , perhaps mated to the beta24 power-amp, with a balanced...
