Back to normal.

Anyway, I am going to apply some to another tube I have that I find to be far too thin and grainy in the Paradisea ... see if that same signal boost which equaled too much tube in my current setup might not translate to just the right affect with this other tube.

Interesting tweak to be sure.

My plans if the E-MU lacks upon adding the SP:

ESI Juli@ and standalone cdp.

I'm kind of banking on the SR225 and D2000 to scale exceptionally well with the amp, because I'd rather focus on my sources right now in an attempt to somewhat balance out my rig. The Juli@ looks sweet as hell - I want to buy it first and do an A vs. B between it and the E-MU. Whichever does the best stays with me. Yes, I know I won't be using the swappable I/O function because I'm sticking with a single-ended rig, but whatever quality might be lying in its opamp greatly interests me.

I need Jacob to get back from his trip and recommend me a standalone cdp, like right now .

Joel - did you just randomly send out a cable to someone in the club?

Lol, gotcha.

I wouldn't put it past you to send out cables to a fellow headphone-maniac for free, so I couldn't be sure. You gracious fellow .

Yeah, I kind of want to move back to an internal card. Screw the Chaintech, might as well keep a professional-grade card in my pc.

I needed to get some change in my paypal so I could pay for some ERS paper.
15 bucks; *almost* free, anyway...

I can't take it anymore! I haven't even received the hd650's and now I am buying a cable for them. The Stefan Audio Art Equinox cable. The same guy is selling it to me for 140 shipped, can I resist? Definitely not.

We should start a 12 step program or something.
