I was gonna say - you really need a dac upgrade with those crap sounding ipods; I hope to god you've got ample flac and 320kbps files because that setup has ALOT of listning to potential, very jealous.

"Crap sounding ipods"

I've got plenty of flac files, and plenty of cds so I should be ok. I'm just wondering if there is room for anything else to be upgraded in the system. I don't really have high quality phono cables running from my DAC to Amp.
Either way, I'm very happy with the way it sounds at the moment

Nice! How are you liking the Dacmagic and Solo combo?

Thanks

The exact pic is a bit too big for the forum (1920x1200) so I'll post the website link to her pics.

So far I'm loving it

I've only had the dac since yesterday so I think it will take me a bit longer to become accustomed to what it can do. But so far I bloody love the thing. It's in a completely different league to my Macbook Pro's audio out. The biggest difference I noticed straight away is the clarity.

Thanks Pumba. I like the Dacmagic as well and would love to know what a Graham Slee will do for the sound.

So then would that be a 17" MBP?
How's is it in terms of portability?

I am deciding between 15" maxed out or the 17"... I Like the idea of 1920 x 1200 screen res on a laptop, but wonder how it would look on my desk next to my 24" monitor which I would use to extend the desktop.

Yer, mine is the 17". I find it good for portability. I am about 6'3 and pretty big though so im sure if a 5'8 person tried it they might find it too big. It's all relative

I bought an MacBook Sleeve By AppleSac. Get Your Discreet MacBook Sleeve Here. Check Out Our Hemp MacBook Sleeve and a normal over the shoulder messenger bag (not designed for a laptop) and I get it about fine. The 17" only weighs a bit more than the 15" though. And the 17" has it's advantages with screen size and resolution. I feel I made the right choice with the 17" and if I had to make the same decision again I'd still go for the 17"

I've got a few setups. One for 'phones one for my speakers.

First the phones. Source is an Apple Macbook into a CMOY into Grado SR225s

Note that IASCA and MECA sound quality Car audio competition trophies make excellent headphone stands.

CMOY and USB HDD that holds all my FLAC files.

Headphones

My P3 desktop that has been revived as a music player. It's too slow to do anything else

Kenwood receiver. 100W into both Fishers

The Fishers. The tweeters blew up so I threw some tweeters from a set of Polk bookshelves in. Surprisingly they still sound great. Good energy and impact. They like to played loud.

That's all my toys minus the car stereo. That's for a different thread. Got a competition in Allentown mid-August.

 

[leeperry]

a speaker so close to the PC case could ruin the HDD, don't you think? both because of EMI and vibrations...

nice phone stand

My setup. Taken off the sticker from the c-2c now
