| Chicks With Guitars Gabriela Quintero of Rodrigo y Gabriela fame is my current favorite female guitarist. | |
| FLAC On A Mac Cool, I look forward to hearing about the freshened Marantz. | |
| Apogee audio interface better than a DAC? I'm not sending anything from the Mac to the Audio Research. They're two separate systems. I was trying to point out that the computer system was surprisingly good compared to the hi fi rig.The Duet has two inputs. Alas, the One has, unsurprisingl... | |
| FLAC On A Mac I've taken my flash drive from my wife's PC to my Mac and there weren't any compatibility problems. I don't know how it was formatted though. It came formatted from Lexar. | |
| FLAC On A Mac I deleted all the eBooks and the car stereo still crashed when it atempted to read the thumb drive. Oh, well.I can't think of anything else to get the Marantz to play the files, so I guess you should wash your hands of it and try another device. | |
| FLAC On A Mac I agree, the file should remain a FLAC file when you transfer it from your Mac to a thumbdrive. So I don't understand why the Marantz won't play it.You know, this is likely unrelated, but I just copied my hi rez Rush and Milos Karagdelic FLAC file... | |
| Review: Nordost Red Dawn Interconnect Oops, I have to retract. The Nordosts I have are called "Blue Heaven" not "Red Dawn". Sorry for the confusion. | |

| No Audiophiles in Hollywood In Vanilla Sky, Tom Cruise had what must have been a state-of-the-art (even in the future) system that holographically projected Coltrane playing at his party. That's the only instance of hi fi I can recall from Hollywood, although the TV show Hou... | |
| FLAC On A Mac I downloaded Decibel, the trial version, and it worked fine with the FLAC files I downloaded from hdtracks. (Unlike the DVD-As I burned from those same files, but that's another story.)I'm wondering if you downloaded 24-bit/192kHz files... The Mar... | |
| What Song Reminds You of Your First Love? Beast of Burden, the Rolling Stones! Back in 1985 it wasn't too hip to listen to the Stones, but we did. | |
| Who is your overall favorite guitarist? Jimmy Page | |
| New favorite VINYL Album? Fleet Foxes Helplessness Blues: this is a weird album reminiscent of Simon and Garfunkel and My Morning Jacket, but very compelling - it really grabbed me on just the first listen. It's recorded well, too. | |
| Dumb Question about wi fi Thanks for all the details, Mlsstl.Actually, I hadn't thought about the upper limit sample rate of the squeezebox until Sbank mentioned it. And I see you can get some files in 24/192 from hdtracks, so maybe I will consider another streamer.When I ... |
