Excellent find on the b-stocks! Jot R incoming.

Jinger is underappreciated. Her range is just stupid crazy!

Yes, sounds great on the 32 Ohm input! and:

Alex, your timing is perfect. I'm about to build a set of cables from the speaker taps of my First Watt F1 over to the TI-1b and have been wondering about the wire characteristics. It will be interesting to compare it to the Neurochrome Modulus-86 I built as a headphone amp. Loving these...

Thanks! Can't wait!

Alrighty then... Couldn't resist any longer. CA-1A on the way....

At least it has a 4 pin XLR on the other end. You should either ask the manufacturer of the cable or ohm it out to verify there are no shared connections. I've seen some very strange configurations that, if used as a headphone adapter, could damage the amp. Each banana should have a connection...

That looks like a 1/4" TRS on the end. If so, then NOOOOOOOOOO!

I enjoy both Prokofiev and E. Kissin.  Do you have a recommended recording? Thanks!

Interesting debate.  May a 3rd Engineer throw in a thought or two? Copernicus was a heretic.  According to the Holy Roman Church he was dead wrong in his theories.  Remember, the Church WAS the scientific body of the day.  Copernicus, as it turned out,  was right...   Ever stand in a window...

Sorry, I don't understand the "blow the amp up" (sic) comment.  I've never heard the Lyr 2, so can't comment one way or the other on synergy.

Gottcha.... I misinterpreted what you were saying.  Hadn't a clue what taxiq was trying to say...

Um, What?  What exactly do you think the term "balanced" means?

Completely disagree.  THIS is the perfect forum for yggy related minutiae. 

Yeah, can't wait to hook up my low buck o'scope to the output when my Level 3 arrives.  Something doesn't look right, for sure, but I'm not certain its the DAC output at fault...  Grain of salt, and all.   All I can say at this point is that neither Gungnir MB nor Jotunheim (through the...

Jotunheim....   Somebody, please say Jotunheim....   Schiit....

Because they are fun!

Really?  People were asking for retroactive deals?  Really people?  Not cool.

Yeah, not a good idea, in general.  A DAC output is meant to drive a high impedance input.  Depending on the design of the output stage, connecting to a low impedance (virtually ANY headphone) may result in letting out the magic smoke.  Very hard to put back in, once released...

This was a couple of years ago with a few older discs. Not damaged that I could see and not protected.

I, too, had problems with EAC.  Some tracks just would not rip.  Switched to dBPowerAmp, which solved all the problems I was having.

Really?  High Res on bandcamp?  Best I've found so far is 16/44.1 stuff.  Got any examples of high res on BC?  TIA
