    Question about an old portable AMP that I bought.

    The iBasso D12, dual dacs . images . new Sysconcept optical cable . . Topkit by HiFlight. .

    What is the sound floor like on the d12? I remember my pico ownership days, and I just loved the silence and deep black background of that amp.   Does the d12 compare anywhere near?   Suppose it is academic as I specifically want optical connection, but still nice to hear others opinions.

    How much does SQ affect your listening pleasure?

    never used to bother me, I genuinely did just listen to the music.   Now, while I do obviously listen to the music, I don't seem to be as fully immersed as I once was as I listen to the equipment too.   It's swings and roundabouts I suppose as I do get enjoyment from listening out for...

    don't let her get her cheating grubby hands on a single penny of that 45k. If you have to blow it do it, if you have to give it to a family member do it, but screw the bitch as hard as she is probably hoping to financially screw you with the settlement.
