One minute, hifi writers want this to appear and can't wait for it to be so, and the next, when it seems it may do so, they cannot simply be happy, they suggest that if it is to appear, it suddenly needs to be really special as well. Simply appearing is no longer enough. Mmmm.

Anybody know if this would work with a chromebook. Thanks.

What is it with folk wanting everything for nothing. I could go on being extremely rude or modern about all of this, but it is just too depressing to bother with.

Could I use this on a Chromebook. Most manufacturers can't tell you that. I asked three of them once about their own DACs. No-one had a clue. The best I got was try it and find out. Mmmm. I wondered if anyone here has tried it.

Mod Edit: Removed a quoted spam link. Does that mean that you use Spotify without feeling the need to pay for it. If that is so, it is very fortunate for you that you were not born in the 60's etc. Why do folk feel that music should be free. If you do pay, I take it back, but I believe...

In the old days we simply listened to the music. It was really easy. Some folk seem more interested in the mechanics of the thing. Ah well. I just listen to the music. It's really easy. I'm not interested in how may things I can carry around when leaving the house, how may things I can press or...

People should pay for music, full-stop. People should pay for train journeys, and they do. People should pay for food. And they do. People should not be given everything for nothing. The business model is clearly wrong and cheapens music. Do you pay or do you ransack the shop.

Everyone who works for ITV and C4 gets paid properly. Every actor and actress gets paid properly. Even ITV and C4 get paid. Spotify is very different. May I ask if you pay for Spotify or music in general. And if not, would you consider doing so.

I just wish that the massive amount of folk who get every record in the shop for nothing, be wiped from the platform and be forced to cough up. I know there is probably some crawling, vomit inducing business reason why this does not happen, but these people should at least show some sign of...

Any way to add a turntable to this or not...It was not mentioned but you never know I guess.

Here's something you won't believe and any money this gets taken down really quickly, because WHAT HIFI, will not want it to be seen by Cyrus. Got a response today from the company Cyrus. In particular, Pete Hillyard from Cyrus 'support' They make cutesy little dac's, like the kind we are...

Once again the question arises..................... Which of these products is guaranteed to work with a CHROMEBOOK........ The last time I posted this question, I got ONE response. and that response was all about what worked with Windows and Apple.........Avoiding Chromebook. See I told you how...

I'm looking for a simple dac that is usable with an ACER CHROMEBOOK. Regardless of what some people say, the Dragonfly, did not want to work, when borrowed from a friend and I suspect other inexpensive dac's will be just as fussy with a CHROMEBOOK. Does anyone know for absolute certain, what...

You are correct, Bowie did make the very fine Scary Monsters in early (1980). What I said was pretty much everything (from 1983 onwards) (not 1980 onwards) Heathen is certainly the best album from 1983 onwards, but it certainly cannot compete with pre 1980. Hope this helps to clarify the...

If I had intended to overlook any albums, I would never have taken on the vast task of listening in the first place. There would have been no point. I'm not saying there are not several tracks worth hearing after 1983, but it really is needle in a haystack time. If you would like to take...
