I feel as though I should educated myself on the subject of tap lengths so I can find amusement in this brooding war you speak of :wink:


My DAC is more DAC than your DAC because my DAC has more taps than your DAC!

Is Yggy's weight same as Rag's (30lb)?


Just a guess here, but the DAC should weigh approx. half of the weight of the power amp.

  It's now $1699. Still waiting on transformers, argh (we changed the design.)
 
In happier news, the first article metal arrived for Yggy, so you'll be seeing that at a show soon (and Mike says "I don't think it'll take as long to get it into production as Ragnarok." His words. We'll see.)
 
 

Wow! Did it pass your FAI?

  A 30-lb DAC must use BIG IRON power supplies.  :)

Well, the most recent hold-up is changing the transformer spec...

Actually that's the maneuvering equipment from a nuclear submarine.  Throttle control, reactor control and electric plant control, left to right.  I spent thousands of hours in front of each of those three units during the 70's and 80's...
