Hope I didn't mislead anyone, as I thought they might release the hounds (cats?) after midnight. But since I knew I'd be up ALL night anyway...downloading ML right now @ 0600 hours. Started downloading @ 0545 hrs but the demand out there is holding up the party!

This could take awhile. Breakfast anyone?

 
Let me know how it goes, I usually stay away from new release for few days, not fighting for the download traffic.

Update: One hour out of the gate, not bad. Kitty is already on the couch sipping on some chocolate milk.

 When I awake at lunch time, audio will be the first thing I check!

Wake up, Woozy heads!
 
Silent One: Mislead, never! Well-informed, always. Thanks for the early-morning heads-up and an early start on breakfast.
 
For those of you, myself included, who need to install Mt. Lion on multiple Macs, this is a good read while waiting, waiting, waiting...

I forgot the actual date but I believe if your Mac was got in June, then you'll receive a free copy. The HiFiMan's are on loan, we ain't got that kind a dough.

 My second audition with them in fact, since winter.

Good to see the thread back on-line.

My Woo WA5 is currently with my dealer for upgrades - based on others success here I'm going to try the Mundorf Silver in Oil as coupling caps in place of the V-caps and Audionote resistors. Also been having some microphony problems, so Im hoping we can identify and fix those also!
 
Alas this means no Woo for over a month :frowning2: not sure how i'll cope!

 
 
The cure for Micro-phonic artifacts associated with 300b tubes and speakers is to in-case your amp in a small glass and aluminum box with all wires running out of small holes in the back. You can sound-proof the inside of the box too with sound dispersing foam. Next you have to cope with the heat dissipating issues accounted from having your amp in a box. If you do enough research you'll find out who is doing it right.
 
Many towns have aluminum builders who make display cases for jewelry. Give them the dimensions, they can make one even with small twin doors in the front. Keeps dust off too.  
 
 
Some manufactures actually build their amps in boxes for this reason.

Good friends? That by itself wasn't enough to get 'em out the door. I say "Look, jc9394 and I, man we like brothers."

 "Well then, keep 'em for a month if needed. And make sure you post."
