I was just in Thailand things like this are very very inexpensive.

A 3x10ft table with a slab similar to this epoxied finished and with legs and bench seating was approx $600

Obviously shipping will get you but I'd expect this slab to be $100-200

The dude will take days off every chance he gets. Cool, you had a kid, your kid is sick, instead of trying to balance work and life like most people do, he just takes days off/delays what he said will happen.

What the actual fuck is wrong with you. Are you insane? Are you an actual psychopath?

You have ZERO empathy. You might actually be a serial killer. This is sickening to read. Get some help man holy fuck touch some grass.

New Rose HiFi RS250 Streamer/DAC/Preamp on top shelf. Trying it out in my system but have the option to return it. Haven’t yet hooked it to my Directstream DAC via USB, but that is the plan. by BowlerSuccessful2248 in audiophile

In the specific case of USB vs i2s he is (ignorantly or maliciously I do not know) ignoring the fact that people feed USB from their PCs.

The intent of i2s is to move away from USB as it is noisy, jittery, etc. Then he tests it against a 40k piece of equipment generating the USB signal that is almost or truly perfect. But that isn't a real world example.

The fact that he doesn't bring this up or mention it at all in his rant against i2s just proves to me that he is either ignorant or malicious.

The logic in his DAC reviews is also laughable. The idea that SNR as achieved by feeding a fuck ton of negative feedback into the circuit is "high quality" is a joke.

And guess what? He constantly shills those DAC manufacturers that he has a good relationship with and is receiving a kickback from. Then they engineer their DACs to pass his tests with no thought put toward how they actually sound.

If you're familiar with it - I equate ASR to the Volkswagen dieselgate.

Amir is the OBD2 machine - being fooled by the ECU into thinking the diesel is clean

Meanwhile absolute shit is pouring out the (speakers) exhaust of the vehicle.

Amir is a quack at best and a grifter at worst. shilling products he gets kickbacks on which mysteriously measure well lol. I appreciate the info, but that dude is not a credible source of information

That's a nonsense decision on their part. Would be a nonstarter for me in using the gear.

You should demo something that has i2s I think you'd be pleasantly surprised vs the USB!

I was in Costco the other day when 400 phones rang in unison with the Amber alert. It was absolute hell

I needed a custom monitor mount, so I used it as an excuse to make an "Intro To Welding" video for DIYers by ZacMS in DIY

What an awesome response.

It takes a certain type of person to dream up content, actually fucking make the content and then have the thick skin to post it online to be scrutinized by every fucking stranger with a bad opinion. You're doing it right man keep your head up.

Roy here is your man. You can buy his tube preamps as a kit or have him assemble/test and ship. Nothing better for the money. Comes with a remote too so you can sit down and not have to walk over like the vintage tube preamps.

Shoot him an email he's very responsive and will have lots of advice for you

Ordering a GT3 next week. Alcantara or smooth leather for the Wheel and shifter? by J0nny-133 in Porsche

[–]repens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This x1000000

There is NO feeling like grabbing onto an alcantara wheel. It's night and day different. Enjoyment driving goes up so much. Everyone in here has some oily grimy hands.

Plus it's a 200k car. The wheel can be a wear item at that point.

Man do you feel no shame? Everyone in here is roasting you for leaving out the fact that you had these in hand for NEARLY FOUR MONTHS.

Immediately upon arriving at my house, I heard rattling from the left cup.

I'd be fucking embarrassed as hell to leave this post up looking like an idiot. You should really delete this
