Plus the Schiit is prettier, more compact, Made in USA, and maybe even less expensive?
Phew. I'm glad I went with the Schiit. Now I'm really excited to get my hands on it.

I also ordered a MiniDSP with the microphone last night to get some REW action going on as well as a way to add a sub.

Thinking of doing the same thing for my driveway but a curve truss. My driveway is located in an alley so will not be an eye soar.

Somehow my recurring order of filters went through this month, and some t-track for a few projects.

Have you seen those new Murphy Ladders? I guess they are a new concept as I just seen an ad on TV the other day. Looks pretty neat as far as the footprint goes.

I accidentally bought a custom Seiko off ebay yesterday. I put in a crazy low bid and won it.
