Hmmm...Have you given any thought to turning Mike loose on a surface mount MicroVU Meter with a digital light pipe to magnify and project it onto a ceiling. With, of course, the off/on switch on the back of the device for a DSR®! The Double SchiitReacharound®.

Probably knot, huh?

Where's my credit card?

I know, right? Now I've got to have both.

Now that’s thinking outside of the box.

If Schiit still carries those blindingly bright LEDs they could project the Schiit logo onto the ceiling like the bat signal. The Schiit signal!

Thanks for that. But actually my question was about the name ‘burrito’ used.

Simple.... everyone loves a burrito.

This one's for you @OldRoadToad . Found this guy's projects on a DIY forum

Wow - I have not seen a Sound Organisation stand in years - de-rigour in the 1980's and I sold loads of em - absolute must have for Linn turntable owners back in the day

I've had those for so long that they're now part of the family! Purchased in 1989.

The only "audio" gear that I have that's older would be my Nitty Gritty 2.5fi, purchased in 1986. It still runs strong.

My Dynaco gear that I got in the early 80's, just found a new home last week.

Hmm. I just remembered, I still have a Moscode 300 that I bought in 1987. I might need help!

My OG Gumby has been my LR nightlight since Aug 2015.

Sometimes people mean imaging when they say soundstage and sometimes when they say soundstage they mean the positions of the instruments change on the stage. Width, height, depth, placement, precision - I've read a lot of inconsistent terminology.

Good point, @artur9 . I generally think of 'soundstage' as the overall "display" of the musical presentation - width, height and depth - and 'imaging' as the precision placement of the instruments and voices in that soundstage. This of course points to how the track / album was engineered and mixed. You can have a soundstage without imaging, but - in those amazing recordings that were engineered by the best - you can close your eyes and point to the individual instruments / performers... the latter is hard to get.

Then again, I am a noob at this and not qualified to comment about audio engineering, so YMMV, as always...

I just hit 49, being dragged kicking and screaming into my 50s. Haha

I've had that Rostropovich CD set since high school, part of a sweet Columbia House haul.

Ah, Columbia House -- sweet indeed...

Thanks for that. But actually my question was about the name ‘burrito’ used.

It's just continued Schiit humor.

Read through the first few dozen pages of Mike's blog in HeadFi and you'll understand his irreverent sense of humor.

Ragnarok 2 Fully Loaded compatible streamer?

I’m looking to use the internal Schiit DAC. The streamers I’d like to use (either Wiim or Bluesound Node) only have Toslink outputs. Is there a way to use those devices as only a streamer into the USB input Schiit DAC?

The latest Bluesound Node (2022) had a USB output. I'm currently using that.

I think this is the first mention of burrito in this thread

Each paragraph is worth re-reading occasionally
