Smells like manhattan.

There is no compression when using optical with chromecast.

I have found myself doing the same.

I'll pass on the kool aid du jour and gladly keep buying cds and flac downloads of redbook material. They have never sounded better to me than with my current gear. Pour your favourite beveridge, put on the tunes and smile. Life's good.

Nice to have you back Mike. I hope you have a full recovery soon.

If you use the SPDIF the setting has no effect.

Bifrost vent is decorative. There are no through holes.

I hope you have a speedy recovery Mike.

I agree with this. I changed to the 650 cable when my original started to short out. The 650 cable is sturdier and actually cheaper than on original 600 cable.

If not redacted, then what's left? Schitty pun

Just a tease again.

Well that was a really moving chapter Jason.

I definitely like them in my Lyr.

Yes there is no change in the output power.

I have them for my Lyr 1. They work great. I'm not sure how the noise levels would be with low impedance cans. I'm using HD600 HE400i and K240 Sextetts. They are a nice option when you don't always want to run glass.
