I see what you did there...

Sometimes you've gotta find uses for old purchases that have since been superseded. In this case, the best use for an old laptop stand was to turn it upside-down and put a DAC on it. As you do.

That's one understanding. My thought was he prefers running unbalanced :D

A HeadPhone Amp that doubles as an air purifier, now that's a first!

Well, he said he runs it on low gain. And probably no phono input because the flutter would be unacceptably high.

FUNNY!!

Reminds me the old vibraphone joke (really, any jazz instrument will do).

Q: How do you know the stage is level?
A: When the vibes player drools equally out of both sides of his mouth

We have a small Victorian terrace house and my wife's job requires her to be on conference calls 103% of the day, so to maintain my sanity I migrated my desk upstairs. The window to the left opens on a vertical hinge which works very nicely in this hotter weather, and I can blow my vapour straight to the great outdoors haha.

Same here. We have a small Cape. My wife is on calls most of the day, so we (I) converted an unused spare bedroom into my listening station. My speaker setup is in the basement, so I can use that any time as well, as long as I keep the volume reasonable.

You need to put some decorations on those walls...

That reminds me of the "Why don't you put some guns on me" scene from Johnny Dangerously :D

It's not really common to post your own wifi password on the net. :) :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
