2 out of 3. Still waiting for the Monty Manhattan/Gadget bundled with the Schiit Bragi BWD PCM CD transport.

Isn't that thing also a network player/ music server with a dap that docks into the front panel which doubles as a remote control?

Also it has a sand cast aluminum chassis and gold bee's wax fuses. Fuse polarity marked of course.

Edit:: also it makes toast

Ohh, oh I thought of another one. This unnamed device will also up mix 2 channel to 7.2 surround supporting all popular formats and may be released as an integrated AV receiver.

He has been working on a fully home baked solution for schiit. This has been going on for some time. Idk how far long progress is to a commercial product, or it's relative emphasis vs other projects.

Driver works OK, the installer .exe is borked, Failed on 2 win7 PCs. The only machines I tried so far.

Going win10 anyway.

Nah I turned them in on time, and didn't review KSE :'(

I'm inclined to focus on a comparison with HD800 and K3003i. The first is ubiquitous; the second, my only other IEM.

Bosie, did you hack the IRS computer system to get an extra day?

Man, I did my taxes like 3 months ago, what y'all been waiting for?

Right? Why do people wait till the last minute? I'm genuinely curious.

I've never seen any stats but maybe it has to do with refund versus shortfall.
I always file based on when my accountant sets up my annual appointment (and I also do a proforma for the next year at the same time to insure I always owe between $100 and $1,000).
Or maybe it's just the adrenaline rush that goes with last minute fire drills.

Usually I cannot even start until the end of February, when the REVISED 1099s are issued. It seems Fidelity can never get it right the first time.

Bingo. I never receive all of my documents until at least March and sometimes not until April 1st,

I thought the deadline for mailing was a post mark of Jan 31? I guess not.

Yup, there is a 1/31 deadline... And then come the revisions...

Yes, it is, however when dealing with financial services companies, one should always wait for the eventual corrected 1099's sent some weeks later.
