Can Lossless Files be Shrunk?
I'd like to move my collection to an iPhone SE, 64g. Problem is my stuff has all been ripped lossless and takes up a lot of room. I def won't need the SQ of lossless with an iPhone using Bluetooth and can get away with a format that takes up less room. Is this possible?- RCM

UE Conversion to Bluetooth?
I have an older (2007) set of UE10 Pros that I'm hoping to convert to Bluetooth. I believe there is a company called Lear(?) that may make a conversion setup but not sure how well it works or if it even exists. Any help in making this happen would be appreciated!- RCM

UE10 Pro Replacement Cable?
Any suggestions for the best replacement cable (in terms of sound) for these IEMs? There are a gazillion cables out there for IEMs, but the UE10 Pros are a very analytical IEM so a bit of softness and coloring might be the ticket with these, so any suggestions appreciated, esp of you have...- RCM

I've tried everything I can think of, and the board and all connections look perfect, so pics wouldn't help. I'm hoping Phil will reply next week.- RCM

Thanks Pete...yeah, I shot a message to Triad yesterday evening so they might answer Monday. The opamp (the one with 8 pins, right?) is removable so if that's the issue and Phil gets back to me it would be pretty simple.

Larocco PRII
I have one of these (#165) I bought several years ago but haven't used it since about 2009. I recently op-checked it to make sure everything works because I wanted to sell it, and it wouldn't power up. I tried a couple sets of new batteries, I checked all the connections, I tried plugging it...- RCM

I'm putting the piggybacked OIMP 6.8/Teflon .01 V-caps from a portable rig into a home rig for the iMod as, I swear to god, I got too much hassle when going thru airports!! Looked like a bomb, I guess. Anyway, I'll be using silver wire and Eichmann Ag bullets but I need a nice stand/dock to...- RCM

Recommendations for gypsy violin music
Many of the works of Pablo Sarasate are gypsy-like, most notably Zigeunerweisen (Gypsy Airs), but there are many more by Sarasate that are incredibly fun listening, like Carmen Fantasy. Great stuff. -
