Just a short report: my super sound pipes just arrived. They replace the pretty good Kimber Hero's. Pretty good ... Until now! Those not broken in ssp's sound incredible all ready. First impression after half an hour: much more and defined bass, air and focus. Thanks Doc!

Sounds like a very good idea. When I swim to my neighbor, hope he has some Gino Vannelli, forgot him on my list. Maybe his best album 'the gist of the Gemini'. In know, I know... He is totally unknown in England but huge in the rest of the world.

Basic design is an open baffle, but the enclosure is beautifully bended, the back of the speaker is open as well as the underside of the enclosure. It is driven by ...

Thanks terrybooth and fretless. Exactly what I am doing right now... some cheesy Quincy Jones... relaxing and enjoying

Absolutely.

Update: As you could read in an earlier post I installed Windows server 2012 on my pc, together with HQPlayer and JRiver. It all was a bit of a dissappointment because I couldn't stream DSD128 files anylonger. They stuttered all over the place. I tried and tried with latency and buffer settings, but...
