I just found out that my friend does costumes for that show.

Samsung seems to have added the label after people started peeling off the layer. To be fair all of the phones I've had in the past couple years had a plastic screen protector, I'd instinctively peel off something that looks like one.

@Scott Kramer warning labels are on retail units, apparently the review ones they sent out for evaluation didn't have any labels.

a 2K phone, Id be tiptoeing around the thing-- still glad Samsungs releasing crazy stuff-- reminds me of the 1st Droid, wonky and plenty to improve on.

That rocked!! All 3 booster stages landed. Nutz!! Including on a drone ship at sea. Wow.

Awesome. I had no idea Musk is an Ian M Banks fan, re. the name of the drone ship. Cool sight to see.

A Shortfall of Gravitas --> 3rd drone ship in the works

Saw one live last year by accident. During a morning safety meeting I caught it as it started up North of the refinery I was working at in Carson, CA. Pretty amazing how far mankind has come.

The double sonic booms coming back blows my mind.

I'd shit myself live!

sounds wild on lyr3/hd650 at least

I like the first response, too: "2B or not 2B, that is the question."

works for me :P

yeah, me too now... oops -- sorry, nothing to see here :) I swear even tried it raw from a remote server in NY & it was instant! Came back & nada...! :)

I prob triggered its standard DDOS tarpit, it released a few mins later.

Most preamps, amps with volume controls have between 10K ~ 100K input impedance. With 1:1 turns ratio that will reflect back to the same input impedance on the Jensen transformer presented to the Yggdrasil A2.

Ah, I see. So an A1 Yggdrasil (300ohm) would be fine also?

Unless you plan on sending DAC outputs to a pro-audio component with 600R input such as Teletronix LA2A or Universal Audio 1176, you will be fine.

Love it! Thanks! Just sharing my workbench fun w/pi/dacs. Everytime posting fear a dislike ;D or maybe I need one!

Nah, embrace the dislike, if they know you have nothing to fear they have no power over you. Nothing to dislike but dislike itself.

The multichannel isn't really for home theater though. It's for an active 3-way with FIR filter. I want something like the miniDSP HD, but with digital outputs so I can use my own DACs.

Maybe there's already some professional digital processor out there that does it.

I know Ian Canada has a multichannel FIFO and reclock, but haven't seen a 8 channel DAC or I2S -> SPDIF implementation

interesting

But just for the buttons to send commands. They are using the Pi as its intent - as a test device for development. Still pretty cool.

The most crucial things about a disc transport that are often overlooked: 1) clean digital out (duh, Mike knows this)
2) Error resilience! Check the Stereophile measurements for CD reviews. reading big gaps consistently is huge, and is what really differentiates CDPs.

^ Darn right. ECC is important. And so is servos, buffers, and clocking. But Mike knows call this.

Something “Continuity” coming in the announcement tomorrow Jason? ;-)

Nope, sorry.

Danggit!! Aw well, whatever it is I’m sure it’ll be great. Best of luck with the announcement!

SOL also...

I'm sure they're working on other phono stages, but I seriously doubt they'd discontinue the Mani when it sells so well. I bet it's just the parts shortage that's keeping it out of stock.

...looks over at Yggdrasil A2 and rubs chin

How are you measuring temp?

lol, fingers -- science is awesome -- i'll do better hypotheses --> later, shot from hip post sorry

ie. Did I press "Concert Hall" on my 1997 pioneer receiver? ;D

I can barely tolerate Spotify at 320 kbps ... and that's just in comparison to all the other lossy streaming sources ... so I'd expect it's simply a case of Ogg at 160 kbps just not being up to modern MP3/AAC encodings at similar bit-rates.

Think yourself lucky - persuading Spotify to stream to my living room Pi entails Stream What You Hear - which transcodes it on the fly to PCM or various bitrates of MP3. Although it's only for background, I should really test some of the alternatives to see which sounds the least bad...
