    California Proposes to Force Manufacturers to Restrict Vehicle Top Speed to 10 MPH Over Limit.

    I don't think this is a big deal. We are getting to the age of self driving cars. Self driving cars are going to travel at the speed limit, so I don' see a problem, Graham

    Class A, AB vs latest Class D amps? How close is Class D?

    Class D amps are very new, so there development will be rapid. Most people have never experienced high end class D amps, so there comparing $90 amps to items costing many times that amount. Setups from companies like Bell Canto and PS Audio sound real good. I think at least 1 class D amp made...

    Disappointed with Geshelli J2 4499EX

    I just started using a J2S with the 4499 and Sparko opamps, running via coax from a Node. I think it sounds very good, detailed, good body, much better than the internal DAC in the Node. My issues is the user interface, what the hell were they thinking, it must be designed by the same people...

    Justin Bieber Sells Entire Song Catalog at 28 years old

    Taking the lump sum is the deal. Collecting royalties is tough, you need teams of people, lawyers and the like. Some big firms just pay, but chasing down all the monies owed is difficult time consuming and expensive. So these companies that buy catalogs already have that infrastructure, they...

    Justin Bieber Sells Entire Song Catalog at 28 years old

    It make me laugh some peoples responses, Bieber is a generational talent and star. Just because you do not like his work does not make the statement true. I am not a fan, could not name a single song, but that is not the point. Bieber is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with...

    When did DACs become "A Thing"?

    Your analogy about the 80s/90s CD players, did that all sound the same? No, could it be that the inbuilt DACs were better on some that others, very possibly. Graham
