rmva Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Congrats and thank you for these informative learning grounds. While ripping I spent many hours reading old posts, just 'cause there's so much knowledge in them. It made me change my way of doing things a few times now. Thanks and cheers.<br /> <br /> Ruud ~ Link to comment

Elprior Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Congratulations Chris !<br /> <br /> It would have been a long and painful road without CA.<br /> Can't wait to play with the new features, and read new articles.<br /> <br /> Now you really are a full time consultant in computer audio.<br /> How cool is that (I'm jealous right now) <br /> <br /> Elp (from France)<br /> Link to comment

Deyorew Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 This is a site I came upon about a year ago and it has been a pleasure keeping up with. It gave me confidence in music server as the way to go over cd player. I show all my friends my iPhone controlling my entire cd library and its quite a hit. So I know this is the future!

ackcheng Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 May I suggest adding a second hand/exchange market place. I have noticed that being a computer audiophile, it is difficult for me to sell second hand equiptment like sound card, DAC etc. Some of the soundcard that we values are considered non-audiophile by the main stream forums.

bmckenney Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Now that the site, and the technology I suppose, has matured and grown, I find your site every informative. I am coming in to this part of audio without knowing much about it but I do have an extensive audio and IT background and I was surprised at how much I had to learn. The internet is my friend when I need to learn, and a surfing I went. I have to say that after much content ingestion and browsing I find your site to be a wealth of information. Nice job of combining a forum, blog style updates, reviews, recommended components and of course the Academy. I have not seen this this mix before and it works very well. It is unique and really works.<br /> <br /> My only gripe is I find the forum lacks a lot of viewing functionality and I have a hard time working my way thru and following a thread.<br /> Dedicated 240V balanced power, Torus RM20-BAL.

bmckenney Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Chris, Is this a reference to something like your local newspaper? I don't get it. When I first saw it I thought you made a mistake with a site update and had the wrong name. To me it doesn't "pop"! Maybe you can convince one of your sponsors such as BAD to give away an Alpha in a naming competition :-) Dedicated 240V balanced power, Torus RM20-BAL. Mac Mini/Ayre QB-9.
