Dang, I wish we'd have held out for a 3 car garage like that. My truck wouldn't ever fit in the garage so it would be a shop for me. But I do have a shop in the back yard in the house I got. Nice looking house, congrats!
Thanks.....yeah that third car garage is definitely gonna be my shop,even has built ins and a work bench,can't wait to get it all setup

shit, whats a box like that cost $1500?

It really depends on what is done.

That box has around 9 full sheets of MDF used, double layered around, 3 layer baffle, special corners for the radius of the exterior, 3rd interior layer for bracing and 45s all around, a metric ton of titebond3, 1.5 gallons of resin inside and out all sanded smooth, 5 coats of paint wet sanded between coats, and 3 coats of clear. iirc materials alone was pushing the $700 or $800 mark.

Okay I can get that, but I still think that it is a crutch for the circuit.

As for the Xonar card, I have a Xonar D1 and I love it. I use the Dolby Headphone processing option and it fixes a lot of the spatial distortion issues you get by using headphones. It does however run at a lower bitrate when using it.

I have a sansa fuse portable I flashed with rockbox firmware, does all sorts of cool shit now. One of the features lets each channel bleed a little into the other channel so it's not just a stark LEFT and RIGHT but the left channel has 20% of the right channel mixed in (or whatever you want) and vise versa. Can't find that feature anywhere else though, including in FooBar2000 :/

Love my Xonar DS. I wanna play with opamps but I haven't had the time.

A little less "flashy" this time as there was no team decals put on, but picked up more materials to make some more boards for people.

Really fun projects. Just wish the poly part didn't take so long to get so many coats on!

Firm believer in letting my cars do my talking!

You can't rush quality, it doesn't happen overnight. Quality takes time and dedication, but the end results more than pay for it.

Picked up a 12AU7 tube on ebay for $8. This is an RCA clear top tube that came from an old church organ. Lets see if it's a little more airy and transparent than the cheap tube that came with my headphone amp.
