I finished one more just to see how it would turn out, catalpa has some amazing features. The grain stands out so much....
Have you done anything with olive wood?

It sounds interesting af. I wonder if people will really "hear it continuously" as opposed to modulated PCM. Levinson claims it causes 'audio stress' or something like that.
Claiming "we've solved PCM " is a helluva thing to say.

I wonder what Mike and @Jason Stoddard think about it.
“Solved PCM” - isn’t that called analoge? (Like LP) :)

Well I can't get too excited about any new technology that is Patent-gated behind 5-figure amps lol.
But it is interesting.

I have experience with those as well as other types of connectors that were easily jerked away walls and damaged.
That is why we have "hospital grade" electrical devices-----designed to withstand the abuse and neglect of working reliably in a severe environment i. e. , a hospital.

Have there been any papers published in respected media [IEEE, AES, etc.] to substantiate these claims?
He has some supposedly "objective " tests around 12 minutes into the video.

His premise of "filling in the gaps" in digital SOUNDS like bull schiit to me.
Because there isnt really stair steps or missing data, it's just a representation at those specific points"; or so I've been told by engineers.

Yeah… the objective tests are biologic measurements like kidney and liver function… sure… those were done and correlated in real time precisely, no doubt {sarcasm}. Snake oil anyone?

but but but he has a PATENT!!

Lol.
I am so curious what @MikeMoffat would think. But alas, he won't let us summon him like @Jason Stoddard does

I have built full size and mid sized racks for Schiit gear but never racks for the smallest pieces. I may have to try that some time. I think I have a Vali and a couple of the Loki Mini’s somewhere that I can use for approximate sizes. A Vali on top with 2-3 pieces below perhaps. Any thoughts?
Any excuse for more patina'd copper! 😍
