    New Nagra DAC announced at CES - list price $65,000

    Yes. Please drop the trollish part. It's not as cute as you seem to believe.

    They've been hitting me with purr therapy at every chance. Might not be such a bad thing! "The potential health benefits of a cat’s purr for humans may be what people find most fascinating. According to research, the human body may benefit from the frequency of a cat’s purr. Notably, research...

    Well, I was going to get a house out in Hackensack... But is that all I get for my money? That version you linked will definitely be hard to forget!

    Cat News?

    Maybe a Craigslist or local type advertisement to see if you can find them actual homes. That's a heartbreaking situation, but I know you will do your best for them.

    New Nagra DAC announced at CES - list price $65,000

    Sound is subjective, yes. However, at some point there aren't enough differences in the output of the signals to be audible to anyone. Taste is subjective too, but if I claim my steak tastes better because of my special fork (which is stainless steel, but special for reasons I can't divulge)...

    The so called Amir? ummmm...what? That is his name. This doesn't seem to be improving. Recommendations aren't based on whether stuff is cheap or expensive, they are based on how it performs through the tests he puts them through. These aren't recommended based on sounding better, they are...

    You've had a bit of a rough start. It's hard to tell if you are here in good faith when you start out like you have. They certainly aren't going to be the same, but they will likely sound the same if you set up a test that isolates the ears. Maybe you can take a little time to get to know...

    The Waxwing Thread

    Only in the sense that it can reduce a good bit of the snap crackle pop inherent to the medium (if you turn that setting on), but otherwise I find my Puffin just makes for a very good Phono-Pre. I'd definitely get another of Shannon Parks products if I needed another one.

    Serious Question: How can DAC's have a SOUND SIGNATURE if they measure as transparent? Are that many confused?

    Can you think of a circumstance where you'd even want a dynamic range of over 190dB and/or a frequency response up to 384kHz? Apparently the Gray Moth can hear up to about 300kHz (gotta get away from those bats with that pesky echolocation thing), so there is that to consider if you want to...

    What's confirmation bias in objective experiment? I am pretty sure we all have it. Why?

    Most don't understand the importance of controls, or don't understand what is actually being said. Haven't we already done this? Please go read the responses you've already gotten again, this time with more work at the understanding part.

    No contamination at all. So glad you got too the other side of that one, as Aortic dissection is seriously nasty business.

    Tekton M-Lore Speaker Measurement Update

    He's gotten a little time out to ponder things.

    That's so terrible and sad. I'm so sorry.

    Tekton M-Lore Speaker Measurement Update

    What a strange few posts you've made. I think you need to fill in some blanks a little better before trying again. You are coming across as a bit rude. Or, since you've got the details on what Amir should do, there's a great opportunity for you to set up your own site and show the world how...

    A Call For Humor!

    If you use it on a belly, does it smell like bacon?

    That's so predictable and funny. When I did decide to call, I asked that they not use sirens and lights because I didn't want to disturb the neighborhood...:rolleyes::facepalm: You couldn't be more spot on. It would be a very difficult thing to go through alone. There is nothing on this...

    No need to look it up unfortunately. I've been seeing it on all my charts as that's what I was having. Once that was pretty much confirmed by the hospital as the most likely diagnosis from what was sent while I was in the ambulance, they put the first of a few nitrous tablets under my tongue...

    Thanks Don. Yeah, the odds of surviving an out of hospital cardiac arrest are not very good are they. Based on this article, less than 1 in 12 survive 30 days...
