I am picking up a used Cambridge DACMAGIC and hope it arrives in time to be able to bring it.

Unfortunately I am a DAC rookie too and I don't even know how to connect it to my Apple MAC yet.

I guess that DACMAGIC isn't so magical after all.

Trower on Sunday. In Bay City man. The "home of rock and roll". lol

I was Up North a week ago and saw that Trower's concert had made the front page of the Bay City Times, now that is magical!

What did they call him, a rock or guitar God?

Cool Olson. The DAC Magic is one of the DACs on my list. See you then.

The easiest way to hook up the DACMagic to the Apple is either through USB or mini optical to optical. Just change the output in the audio midi settings in the applications folder to external output device. I would also recommend changing the output to 24 bit 96khz in case you have any 24 bit material.

Thanks Mike, just need FedEx to get here now.

I can bring a 3-into-1 I/O switcher, from Wardsweb's workbench, if that will be of use. I have no DAC, but I would like to try my Jolida FX10 (the glasscase EL84 integrated from the Fest), with the second system speakers. Someone bringing a source?

I can grab some munchies, once I'm on the US side. Homeland Security won't allow most foods across the border.

Jeff, please forward this to all. I can't send out this many on hotmail.
I will be coming with a subwoofer to extend the bottom. Please bring recordings that will punish a subwoofer (16 hz organ pipe) It is a JL Products 12" sub with 240 watt plate amp in a 3.1 cu ft cabinet. Made of 1" particle board and many internal braces.

Anyone going to Saturdays meet from the west side?

I am looking for a ride to the meeting from the west side, I am in Canton.

I need to go to Graduation Party in Waterford Saturday evening and it would be easy for my wife to pick me up from Dennis's.

 

[luvvinvinyl]

I just heard, today, that I can't get Saturday off, now, after being told that it was all set. :tears:

Have a good time, anyway, fellas.

 

[djnagle]

Well, that's a drag Luvv. You will be missed....but more whiskey for me and my men!!!

 

[DC]

Don't think I have any equipment worthy to bring, but I am willing to bring a bottle or two. What is preferred?

 

[djnagle]

What ever you want Don, we ain't picky. See you then.

 

[ashok]

Unfortunately, I have to back out of this one. My apologies. But the DAC is available to take if some one local to Ann Arbor is going. I will check with Squid and Doug.

 

[grumpy]

No DAC's here but id consider bringing over my CDP if it didn't weight 80 pounds...

 

[DC]

Any other winos besides me?

 

[Maron]

Damnit Luvv , I was looking forward to hearing / seeing that Jolida amp . How do you like it ?
