      Saw the Chucho Valdes Joe Lovano Quintet last night on a rare night out. Wonderful synergy...

      Enjoying music (Jacques Loussier Trio's "Satie: Gymnopedies/Gnossiennes" at the moment, as the kids & wife are in bed...)

      Duke Ellington's 'New Orleans Suite' is cheering me up. Sounds darned good through the Modi 2 Uber, though i wish I'd tired it on the Bifrost Multibit

      Spent the last few days listening to the Bifrost Multibit loaner. I am going to be very sad to pass it on. It has been mesmerizing.

        Now you understand why we (@drfindley and I) were taking so long to hand it off to you! Mwahahahaha!

        Okay, kidding aside, I think this loaner will have people second-guessing the value of Bifrost Multibit, despite hearing all of this blabbing about "lack of resolution". I find Bifrost Multibit a very serious contender. It's a different flavor from Gungnir Multibit/Yggdrasil, rather than just being an inferior sibling.

        @Bill-P , you spent the better part of October beating on Bifrost Multibit for being a lackluster, inferior offering by a significant, noticeable margin compared to Gungnir Multibit. You certainly changed your mind fast.
