Thinking about some "New Years Karma"?

Any ideas?

Power cable (XLO?)
From scratch?
Hand made power cable? (VH Style?)
Hand made digital cable? (6N copper or silver?)
Hand made interconnects? (6N copper or silver?)

Hand made 3.5mm? (6N copper or silver?)
Hand made Balanced IC'S (6N copper or silver?)
Hand made Bi-wire jumpers?

Decisions, decisions...:cheesygrin:

Somebody is going to have a "Happy New Year" I can assure you!:lol:

    You just pick a number from 1 to 150 and if your number is generated at http://www.random.org/ I usually have another member that is not in it generate the number for me!
    Freebie!/shipped.
    Everyone does it different, ^^^^That is how I do it.

    I have read in the past that going to a Linear Power supply is a good upgrade to the switching supply that comes stock IIRC.

    You might give that a try.

    I have Zero experience with the Squeezbox so can't comment myself.

    There are several companies that offer that, and some kits on the market also.
