For those who are laughing, yes, I know it's a computer mock.
This is my study setup.
I use SketchUp mock-ups with my flat floor plan to move things around.
Speakers- Quad 12 L
Amp- Musical Fidelity X-150
DAC- Musical Fidelity X-DAC v3
Tube- Musical Fidelity Uotput Buffer V3
Power- Musical Fidelity X-PSU
Upgrading my speakers to ProAc, now ...
There's a Mac mini there, but I still don't know what to do with it, since the Airport Express will be feeding the DAC...
Maybe a Plasma on the wall behind to watch iTunes plugins...

Another thought about iPod changes...
Could Apple introduce a new special edition iPod that shares the 60 GB range with the current b/w 60GB iPod?

I just got the ProAc Response 1 SC. I have never , ever heard a sound like this.
Some audiophile magazines have rated these "the best monitors in the world".
They are something very, very special. I love them.
The sound coming out my iTunes library is amazing. The DAC really makes a difference with 128 kbps files. The sound-stage is enormous.
Now. when I listen to the same tune with the iPod, although fed through the Valve Buffer, it still is not the same.
Which brings me to topic.
Apple really needs to have digital out ( optical or coax through Dock) in the iPod.
Listening to Apple Lossless or higher bitrate is pure heaven.Trust me.
PS: I also design my audio furniture and have it made in the best woods.
Here are some samples...They are full of holes to accommodate the Nordost cabling..8)

Nordost. Just be careful not to bend that stuff when you pull it through. soldering to that is always a pain, too.

Bend ? Sure. I bended and rebended the Flat Nordost cable everytime.
They are supposed to sustain more than a thousand bends and behave as new.
I have 90 degrees bends below carpet , too.

Just like the posts.
But seriously, I've seen it separate from bending. Once or twice will be ok, but more than that, often causes it to separate from the substrate.
I'm not criticising, but I would just like to help with the English. It's "bent and rebent".
