Happy Birthday Buddy, I hope you have a great day!

Happy Birthday Jack, try not to drink too much.

K 340 Absolutely top class stereo headphones employing the two-way design concept. Each earpiece contains two different kinds of transducer system. One dynamic and one electrostatic system combine together to form an integral transducer system. The result is convincing: full, clear bass...

I'm not going to bother with captions... no need. All of this fine woodwork was done by our very own Steve Tice [swt61]. Steve is so talented and I am more than pleased with all of the work he has done for me. A HUGE thanks goes out to Renato...

I got it done on Saturday afternoon and I am very happy with how it turned out. I was there for 3 hours, though only 2 of those were under the needle. This is my first tattoo and is on my right shoulder blade. It is around 5" by 4.5" and should brighten up a bit after it heals. Hasn't started...

Hey all, I bought a iMac for the Wife and will soon have my computer to myself again! I am thinking about installing linux... most likely Ubuntu as the last time I gave linux a spin it was with Debian and I hear they are related. Anyways. Is there a relatively inexpensive sound card...

Myself and two other head-fi'ers had a listening session this sunday just past. I had a great time forcing all my music down their throats, and they seemed to enjoy themselves. I gave Micah [Redleader] my headroom hat as it doesn't fit my massive head. The picture of Nick [datamorph] didn't turn...

For updated pictures, please visit this thread. Sorry for the quality of the pictures... I really need to get a tripod. McAlister Audio: www.mcalisteraudio.com The meet was great tonight, but I'm glad to finally be home as I didn't get much of a chance to hear my amp there...

Well, I was supposed to get my new balanced McAlister Audio amp Sunday morning... turns out that the faceplate guy had issues with the green sublimation process. I decided to get the amps name in a forest green colour. Should have just left well enough alone! But then again, maybe not! I...

Hi All, I would like to modify the output circuitry of my Eastsound CD-E5 Signature Edition as I will be recieving my new balanced tube amp from McAlister Audio this weekend. I spoke with Peter at McAlister Audio and he told me that the amp has an input impedance of 25K. When I asked him...

Hey all, Since the ZapFilter mk2 seems to be impossible to get right now, I was wondering if there are any alternatives. I would like to install a nice balanced output stage into my Eastsound CD-E5 Signature. [Crystal CS4390 DAC chip] Currently it uses a NE5534 for the phase inversion to...

Please refer to the original thread for all info: LINK Sorry to start two polls on the same thing in such a short amount of time, but I got some really good suggestions in the first poll and wanted to start over. Please only vote for names that you seriously think I should use, though I...

Ok, so I've been waiting for this amp for some time now and just realized that it is going to be done the weekend after this one and I have no name... I am sure Peter has some ideas, but I thought up a bunch of my own while IM'ing with my friend Renato [looser101] on the bus ride home today and...

I am.

I thought that some of you may find this interesting. I myself had always tied diabetes and heart problems with obesity, but it seems that this may be another myth perpetuated by the comercial sector. http://www.bigfatfacts.com/

Ok, so I was checking out a Canadian website that sells Archos products and I see the AV504 listed... with 80GB and 160GB options. I know Scott from this site and he is a cool guy, so I don't imagine it is a hoax. However I checked the Archos site and I only see the AV404 [small screen, 30GB]...

I just got an email saying that Massive Attack has been forced to cancel part of their tour and are being 'replaced' by Broken Social Scene... Suffice it to say, I am going to get a refund for my tickets today.

Hi all, Sorry I took so long to get around to this. I know that some of you have been waiting to see Peter's amp and read some impressions. Kevin [Pixel Pusher] was the camera man so he is unfortunately not in any of the pictures. Here are the impressions of Steve's [swt61] ZapFilter...

Hey Guys, My Wife and I got some Vinyl recently and I would like to hear it on something other than her 'Disco 80' turntable... which is somewhat lacking in the sound quality department. Not to mention that it can only play on it's own built in speakers. I'm not looking to build a real...

I remember back in the 'BBS days' before the Internet was big, I used to use LOL as a signoff meaning 'Lots of Love'. My Wife thought it was pretty funny how I got the meaning completely wrong, but maybe I wasn't... http://www.acronymfinder.com/af-quer...d&string=exact Turns out that is...

So, I was listening to a mixed CD that a friend left at one of my meets [thanks Rhydon!] and fell in love with Fourtet again. I pulled out the two CD's of his that I have [Pause & Rounds] and listened enraptured. Today I got out my Manitoba CD's [Start Breaking My Heart & Up In Flames] and am...

Hey Guys, Just wondering if anyone has a schematic for something that would be roughtly equivalent to all the Elpacs which are so widely used on here? I need something to charge my recently acquired PINT. It would not be running off of this, so it doesn't need to be anything fancy. Thanks...

Hey Guys, I need help picking our location. Please only vote if you are attending the Hamilton Head-Fi Meet. Thanks, Jason The Undermount Bar and Grill The pictures shown on the website are the bar area. The area that we would be using is seperate, enclosed, but with access to...

Time: Saturday, July 8th, 2006 - 12PM [you can come as early as 11AM if you have a lot of stuff to setup] If anyone needs to come down the night before, let me know as I should be getting home around 7PM. I only have two couches so make sure you get that email in quick if you plan on sleeping...
