Furious!
Wow $130k for a dac. For that money you could buy an Yggy and something nice to carry it in, like a Ferrari.- fianbarr

What a long, strange trip it's been -- (Robert Hunter)
Apologies, this was bad taste. Also there's another discussion (for another place), about enjoying an artist (music/film) and their off-stage antics/beliefs/behaviour. I have no clear answer here. As some of the most famous artists had repulsive behaviour/beliefs.- fianbarr

Sennheiser x Massdrop HD6XX Review / Preview - Head-Fi TV
I have mine on the way too, however I plan on playing them from my AV receiver for a while first before breaking out the Schiit (Valhalla 2), as consensus reads that it sounds decent with about anything, but really scales with a better amp. So I want to experience a baseline before going to what...- fianbarr

I recall @Pietro Cozzi Tinin is an expert in waging war with his loyal feline over the stereo. Unfortunately the cat is winning....- fianbarr

I'd argue that Nespresso is the Sonos of coffee. It just works, most people are very happy with it. But to me it is overpriced and underperforms, but hey it is absolutely idiot proof.- fianbarr

There will always be people who can't understand that other people have a different opinion from them (especially if it is something they feel strongly about, being positive or negative). And it's much easier for their world view to blame bias in moderation/admins/contributors than accept that...- fianbarr

Schiit Owners Unite
Thanks, I am more of an album listener myself, and sometimes when faced with an artist that has a huge back catalog it can be a bit overwhelming where to start. Often the allmusic recommended album is a good place to start (although they sometimes recommend a "greatest hits" album, booh!).- fianbarr
