Anyone seen BLS live?  I was told Zakk isn't that great live AND they are one of the best live shows around.....weird that two people had completely different experiences...

Trujillo looked better as part of BLS than Metallica, imho...
 
Anyway:
 

 
Anyone here into Pantera or Down as well?

 

[Bullseye]

I am really liking Revocation.

Is that a Cathedral vinyl to the left? Classic! Which turntable/amp do you use?

 
Yes, Forest of Equilibrium gatefold. Unfortunately I don't have a turntable right now :|

A 3rd vinyl can be seen on the photo. 10 points to whoever get's it. Hint: UK band, release on Vinyl Solution.

For fans of Kalmah, Norther, Children of Bodom et al, the new Made of Hate is good! I just picked this one up, and I'm really liking it. Their first album started strong but became pretty stale by track 4, and lacked imagination. Plus it was just a bit too COB in sound. The new one Pathogen though is a big improvement. They've shifted members around or something, I'm not quite sure what the story is, but the vocals are completely different. No more Alexi clone, now the style sounds more like Darkane. Kalmah should listen to this album and learn how to make good music again.

Seeing him in October.  So you are saying...he sucks right...lol....
 
Its going to be total awesomeness.  I love BLS.  Its just straight up heavy metal.
 
I've always wanted to see Clutch (and kinda Children of Bodom).

Thanks for the suggestion! I am looking for one with an optical in though. Would want to hook it up to my X-Fi soundcard.

Then I would wait for this:

The ibasso stuff is very good for the price.

Slayer is good, their life album "Decade Of Aggression" sounded very good too. That written I am not really a metal lover but sometimes it is the best music you can listen too...

It's all good. It's just a matter of picking the eyes out of everything that comes along.
 
You know you have good taste DF. That's the main thing.

Thanks! I was more looking into a desktop DAC though. Also, I have no use for a balanced headphone amp. I was trying to steer away from the whole portable dac/amp thing and go for more "robust" equipment from now on. The Purepiper DAC is looking pretty good actually. Anyone have any experience with that one?

I do not know about the Purepiper DAC but the Behringer SRC 2496 is also quite interesting. I especially like the options you have with the Behringer.
