Well said. I was just thinking about this the other day and came to the conclusion that this hobby is a luxury. Even the budget oriented gear in this hobby could be considered luxury items. Whether it’s $150 Vali 3 or $15,000 DAC and we are all fortunate to be able to participate in it.

The Swifties are everywhere.

Awesome!

I thought you were going to say you found some wine you forgot about. My dad once forgot about a case of Cakebread. The was a nice find.

Instead of zeros and ones it’s ones and twos.

I’m pretty sure that whoever does the sound effects for The Mandalorian has the same GE dishwasher as me and samples it.

Bosch had Ohm speakers I believe.

When our dishwasher dies it will be replaced by a Bosch for sure.

I would say that they are deceptively fast at certain speeds because of their instant torque and low center of gravity but they aren’t going to win any races and the tire wear is normal. I replaced the tires at 60,000 miles, so pretty typical I’d say.

My 2013 Nissan Leaf is the most economical car I’ve ever had and a great city car.

Last week the founder told us to get a life and go outside or something and it died down in here for a couple of days but that is over now.

I would rather not have a tube device on 24/7. Maybe I am weird.

I’m not sure how smart switches would reduce signal noise but YMMV.

Not the impression I get from the Schiit streams. Other companies have found a simple physical connection between the front panel and back power supply.

It seems pretty clear to me from watching the Schiiter streams that it is pretty much out of spite at this point. I just put together an Elekit amp and they just ran an arm from the back panel to the front. Just saying that they are limiting their market but they probably could care less.
