    Hey, you wanna give him a demo? We can make it an afternoon thing?

    Also, I need to chat with you about the DCM, email on the way.

    Sure thing -- give me a call and let me know when you want to come over.

    I'm formulating my thoughts on the DCM 75+75 and will get them back to you via email.

    after I became obsessed with audio gear, my girlfriend said her dad had some old stuff stashed somewhere at their house from his NY days in the 80's. I checked it out last weekend; he's got awesome stuff just sitting in closets and cabinets all over the house.

    Edit: He's got SWEET BOSE gear coming out the Wazzooo!!!! You should see it, wave radios, 3-2-1 systems, white outdoor speakers, you name it.

    Here it is.

    This is what its all about. Do it Mark! A preamp of this level is more important than most anything else in the system. It is the director of the sound and doing stuff right at these low level signals is art, not science. This piece is pure artwork!

    If I would have come across it in a store or tag sale I wouldn't have thought it was anything special.

    Step away from the computer, slowly.

    You are SO close to having your audiophile card revoked......

    Hmmmm...... Dials are a lil small too :p :eek: :p
    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D
