| The Hub: Holidays gifts for yourself, or a friend. Yes, it accesses the data stream and bypasses the iPod's internal DAC. The iStreamer is a DAC, so all one needs to do is plug the iPod into the iStreamer, plug the power line in (via a small wall wart and a USB mini b cable), plug a set of interco... | |
| Cryo'ed LP's Theosundhouse--bummer on the SSD, IK have done a ton of them (and RAM too--pretty much the same thing as an SSD) without any negative results. Did the person you used for treatment use a vert slow ramp down, and slow warm to ambient?FWIW--I've don... | |
| The Hub: Just how bad is it in high end audio? And Ultimate Electronics before that.Great thread. A huge paradigm shift is needed, or the blood letting will continue.I know many dealers who are thriving. However, they have embraced new media and distribution, and provide systems centered aroun... | |
| Best bourbon? I've been a scotch guy for a long time (and still am), but have recently been "turned on" to the the merits of fine American whiskey. I am loving the "Antique Series" bottled by Buffalo Trace:William Larue WellerGeirge T. StaggThomas H Handy Sazer... | |
| Best single-malt Scotch... "If you want a rare treat, find your way to Edinburgh and go to The Scotch Whiskey Society for lunch. You can sample (for a price) as many of their specially bottled single malts by the glass...and the price is very reasonable. You can also buy a ... | |

| Shuguang Treasure tubes.... John, They will go through stages of sounding odd from time to time. IIRC--I found them great out of the box up until 50 hours, to be bright and spitty, with sloppy bass for maybe 100 hours after that, then they will really start to come around. A... | |
| Shuguang Treasure tubes.... Yeah, the KT77's are the cat's pajamas too. I've been using a set for a few months and am very impressed.I'm going to pick up a set of the CV-181's soon to try as well.Peace, Lee | |

| RMAF: My favorites, so-so's, and disappointments Jig, Thank you for the kind words on the room. Hotel rooms are fun to get realistic, tight bass in, even with the room EQ that the Sonciweld system allows. To my ears as well, the Pulserod "system" is amazingly transparent, musically involving and... |
