Thanks Tony, very informative. What's your day job??
Industrial controls, electronics and magnetic measurement equip.
I do IT/PC consultation work on the side and as a hobby, as time permits.
Prior to this I was in the disk drive/storage industry for longer than I care to admit Lee. :glasses8:

I have a brother in law that has a North Dakota license plate that says "Bin Car", I asked him about it and he said you wouldn't understand, you had to be in the business, I tried really hard to be insulted, just couldn't bring it off..I now hve a glimmer on just how funny that plate was...

I just tried EAC compared to Media Player ripping. I couldn't hear the difference. I lost a lot of music some where in my previous endeavors. The EAC wouldn't recognize my LG drive. The Pioneer DVD is very loud. You can't hear the LG. So far one unknown. I'm using listening and ripping and I'm ripping in about 2 min average. 30.00 the LG was worth it. I have one HDCD "Monster Jazz" good CD.

I can't sell them. Even if I think about it. I start listening to them and this set up will stay. The Vandys may leave for B&Ws; but everything else will stay.

Yes everything is cool. Get my new glasses I'll build the battery powered phono amp. I'm running the puter through them right now. The Blues with the piano (Jonny Lang). Now this isn't bright. I'm thinking I was listening to a CD recorded differently. Some of the CDs were just bad. Some are darker. I biased them about 2 weeks ago. I know you guys like big amps. I like these tubes a great deal. I mean there is no noise coming through I can hear. Should I try a TT today going into the puter. Yes Lee thank you for giving me the chance to own these..

I figured I can hear them at Rt. 11 if I'm jamming with windows open. Don't happen often. I'm good to go. I was just showing my appreciation. Would like to know where all the dust comes from though.

Sort of like Dullas airport. Their noise abatement is trees. 1000s of acres. Good baffles. Here is the reading on what is happening on my puter playing music PCM/ 1411 KPS/ 44100 HZ. Is that good?
