CD reviews we couldn't fit into today's paper – 'Nashville' and 'This Is 40′ soundtracks
"The Music Of Nashville: Original Soundtrack" (Big Machine)
Among the characteristics the network TV drama "Nashville" gets right about its namesake city is the music. Guided by musical director T Bone Burnett, the new series presents a passable and often entertaining facsimile of country radio hits as well as samples of the less commercial side of the city's music scene.
The hourlong evening soap features vocals by several of its main characters. The most convincing work comes from an upstart acoustic duo played by Clare Bowen and Sam Palladio, best represented on the album by "If I Didn't Know Better," and a rising starlet portrayed with convincing fierceness by Hayden Panettiere, who has received radio airplay for her pop-country dance tune, "Telescope."
Actors Connie Britton and Charles Esten, as a veteran country star and her longtime guitarist, don't have the vocal chops of the top singers in Music City. But they perform well enough onstage (especially on the ballad "No One Will Ever Love You") while displaying their dramatic talents when the microphones are off.
The quietly conveyed "When the Right One Comes Along," performed by Bowen and Palladio, features the kind of subtly emotional songwriting heard nightly by patrons of Nashville's fabled Bluebird Cafe (recreated in exacting detail in the TV drama).
The biggest musical disappointment is the shaggy rocker Jonathan Jackson, who lacks the charisma of the others. On the soundtrack, he fails to sharpen the edge of "Twist of Barbwire," an Elvis Costello composition.
Still, most of the recordings on the "Nashville" soundtrack rate with what Music City regularly produces — thereby achieving the show's goal.
— Michael McCall, AP
"This Is 40 Original Motion Picture Soundtrack" (Capitol Records)
It doesn't matter if you're 40 or a fan of Judd Apatow, the soundtrack for the writer-director's latest film, "This Is 40," is worth checking out.
Among its 16 tracks are new and original songs from Fiona Apple, Norah Jones, Graham Parker and Lindsey Buckingham, plus new takes on old songs by Wilco and Ryan Adams.
It's a folksy blend of indie tunes, and as the film deals with the challenges of marriage and midlife, there are some heart-wrenching ones in the mix.
Jones' track is a standout, with a happy, dancing piano that contradicts its stark refrain: "Always judging, never loving." Another highlight is among three new songs Buckingham contributes: "Sick of You" is a showcase for his signature guitar melodies.
Apple is dramatic and demanding on the string-tinged "Dull Tool."
There's bright love on the album, too, most cheerfully on Wilco's "I Got You," a new version of the band's 1996 song with Jones on backing vocals, and Yoko Ono's fairytale love song, "Yes, I'm Your Angel."
Songs by composer-producer Jon Brion, Paul McCartney, Loudon Wainwright III, the Avett Brothers and Paul Simon round out the album.
— Sandy Cohen, AP Entertainment Writer

I accidentally found a new Gluten Free Bread Mix and it is the best I have ever had. It comes out of the oven smelling and tasting like real bread. It has that wonderful Wonder bread taste. It makes the best toast I have had in years. I have also made grilled chesse sandwiches that are wonderful. The ad says it is not crumbly and does not have a sour after taste and it is correct. Check it out at www.noworriesbread.com.

More quote details and news » PLC Monday said it would sell a 20% stake in St James's Place PLC, as the lender looks to cash in on the wealth-management group's recent share rally and bolster its capital base.
The part-government-owned bank, which currently controls 57% of St James's Place, said it hopes to gain between £350 million ($522.2 million) to £400 million from the sale. The proceeds of the sale will be used for "general corporate purposes," Lloyds said.
The move comes just weeks before the Bank of England is set to outline the scale a multibillion pound capital shortfall for U.K. lenders. A spokesman for Lloyds said that the sale of the stake in the wealth manager was spurred by an uptick in the share price of St James's Place over recent months and had nothing to do with the Bank of England's review. In the past year, St James's Place shares have risen around 52% to £5.35.

Once the sale is complete, Lloyds will be left with a 37% stake in the wealth manager. The bank said that it won't sell any remaining part of its stake in St James's Place for at least a year. In a statement, St James's Place said that it would continue to maintain a strong relationship with Lloyds.
The deal should boost Lloyds' common Tier 1 equity—a core measure of the bank's health--by around £500 million, the bank said. The move comes as several British banks look to shore up their capital positions in the face of growing regulatory pressure.

This is a rich, opulent wine showing the pedigree of its ripe fruit and a careful winemaking hand. The character of the vineyard as an old selection of vines with a distinguished heritage is front and center in the clear, medium-yellow wine, with its big tropical fruit notes of pineapple and mango. There is a hint of vanilla and toast in the aroma, enough to bring complexity without distracting from the exuberant fruit. The delicate touch of the winemaker is evident in the lovely balance of the wine's structure, round and fleshy without being ponderous, centered on the sunny warmth of the tropical fruit flavors with the supporting oak notes of vanilla, caramel and toast well in the background yet lingering through the finish. Delicious to drink now it will be intriguing to watch the wine develop over a few years of bottle age.
2007 Stewart Cellars Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml 2-Pack
This is a rich and plump wine from a great vintage, with the structure of grapes grown in great sites and complexity of careful raising in the cellar to age nicely for a decade at least. The wine's nearly opaque purple-ruby color foretells the aroma's depth of dark fruit, oak spice and tobacco notes. The aroma opens to show berries, cherries and plums with hints of pomegranate and smoke. In the mouth the wine starts with richness and silk underlain by a powerful base of concentrated ripe tannins and just the right balancing acidity. The ripe fruit flavors are beautifully wound with subtle toast, smoke and spice from French oak barrels. There is an impression of dark tobacco leaf and cedar mixed with the black fruit in the long, fleshy finish. The lingering grip of the wine's structure will slowly resolve to velvet with time in the bottle.
Robert Parker Rating: 93 points
2008 Stewart Cellars Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 750ml 2-Pack
This wine is medium dark purple in color with a touch of ruby. The aroma opens with berry and dark cherry notes backed by toasty French oak. Hints of savory herb notes emerge with air, along with subtle whiffs of cinnamon and vanilla. The wine is rich and round in the mouth with big black cherry and raspberry flavors at first and just enough balancing fresh acidity. Subtle underlying oak emerges with a bit of earth in the finish, leaving an overall impression of dense, ripe fruit with complexity and silky texture just waiting for a few years in the bottle.

Shots Misfired: One Direction Unpurposefully Damn The Wanted By Association
Posted by News
on 03/23/2012 at 9:21 AMThe Popdust Files: adele, feuds, interviews, jessie j, one direction, the wanted
Before we delve too far into this: No, this is not an actual news story. But, of course, that doesn't mean we can't overreact to it and have fun with it just the same. Whenever you have two musical groups that are clearly at the forefront of their time and place in popular music, people are going to try to create imaginary rivalries and feuds between them—as true for the Beatles and Rolling Stones as it was for Backstreet Boys and 'N Sync. This is a lesson that will be well-heeded for One Direction and The Wanted—especially after an innocuous phone conversation 1Der Niall Horan had with MTV, in which he uttered the following quote about the recent UK "invasion" of US shores.
"It's pretty cool…Adele and us, and Jessie J and the Wanted. It's all very good."
Woah, woah, woah, hold up. So, if we're reading you correctly, Niall—and we're absolutely 100% positive that we are, without a doubt—you're saying that you guys are the Adele of this here boy band boom, and The Wanted are the…Jessie J? Ouch, babe. That's like saying "Yeah, this whole fast food thing is pretty cool…the Baconator and us, and Jessie J and the Arby's Roast Beef." If that's not an invitation to all-out war, we can't imagine what is. (Did we mention you guys might want to just not say anything about The Wanted ever? Seriously, just give 'em the ol' Rasheed Wallace "Both teams played hard." Can't-win situation otherwise.)

I called her on my way over and she said she was excited to see me but I could hear people talking in the background. I asked...Read On

Jerome Lewis, Luke Freeman, Sophie Borreil - Intercooperation, Society for Threatened Poeples, Anthroscape
This document is the result of a study into how the notion of free, prior and informed consent (FPIC) can be put into practice in forestry concessions in the Congo Basin. FPIC is a concept that is gaining acceptance as a way of defining and regulating contractual relationships. It is applied in contexts such as medical intervention, social welfare, and, in this case, resource management.

Three Americans Win Nobel Economics Prize
Originally published on Mon October 14, 2013 6:19 pm
This is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED from NPR News. I'm Melissa Block.
The Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics went to three American professors today. In announcing the honor, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said the men all contribute to our understanding of how markets price things like stocks and homes. But as NPR's Dan Bobkoff reports, that doesn't mean the three economists always agree.
DAN BOBKOFF, BYLINE: The winners are Eugene Fama and Lars Peter Hansen at the University of Chicago and at Yale, Robert Shiller. At first blush, the three top economists are an odd grouping for a single prize. Justin Wolfers of the University of Michigan says some of the winners' findings are contradictory.
JUSTIN WOLFERS: You could say Fama wins it for showing that markets are efficient. Shiller wins it for showing that markets aren't efficient. And Hansen wins it for providing statistical tools so we can prove both of these competing contingents.
BOBKOFF: Fama found in the '60s that stock prices very quickly rise and fall based on new information. If news breaks about earnings or a stock split, the market reacts fast. What Fama found is that new information gets old quickly, making it nearly impossible to predict which way a stock will go in the future, making owning individual stocks riskier. In an interview on the Nobel Prize website, Fama said the relevance of his work is all about how you price risk.
EUGENE FAMA: The idea is really, how do you measure risk and if the market is pricing things correctly, what is the relation between the expected return, which is the compensation for risk, and risk.
BOBKOFF: But in the '80s, Shiller found that the markets sometimes does not price things correctly because traders can be irrational and emotional. Shiller was among the pioneers of behavioral finance, incorporating psychology into the field. And his work shows that when prices get truly out of whack with reality, that's a sure sign of a bubble, the kind that popped with tech stocks in the '90s and housing around 2007, leading to the worst crisis since the Great Depression.
At a press conference at Yale today, Shiller credited his wife, a psychologist, for shaping how he sees economics.
ROBERT SHILLER: See, I think that there's many different intellectual approaches to the basic questions that people want now answered. People develop certain ways of thinking about this.
BOBKOFF: Shiller's fame is for predicting bubbles like the dot-com bust and the housing collapse. Wolfers of the University of Michigan says this is actually a big point of difference between Shiller and Fama.
WOLFERS: Fama not only doesn't believe in bubbles, I think isn't even sure he knows what one is.
BOBKOFF: But Shiller says even though we have frequent irrational cycles of boom and bust, those cycles themselves are predictable patterns over the long term.
Then there's the third Nobel winner, Lars Peter Hansen, who was in a bit of disbelief when he got the news this morning.
LARS PETER HANSEN: My immediate reaction? Well, first I want to make sure this is all real but...
BOBKOFF: Hansen developed something called the generalized method of moments. It's a way to reduce the number of unverifiable assumptions that go into economic theories. Economists use Hansen's methods to assess the models of guys like Fama and Shiller.
The three American economists all worked separately. And early this morning, each learned of the news in his own way. Fama says he was up early preparing his class for the day. Hansen was walking his dog when he got the call. Shiller told the crowd at Yale that the call came as he was leaving the shower. He then called his brother, who, for a guy in Detroit this morning, had perhaps a predictably rational response.
SHILLER: And I said, did you hear the news? And he says, the Tigers lost.
BOBKOFF: Shiller and the other two economists will each get a third of the $1.2 million prize. Dan Bobkoff, NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Hurricane Sandy to Merge With Winter Storm In East Coast Pummeling
As hurricane Sandy leaves the northern Bahamas, computer models indicate the dangerous storm will hit the East Coast anywhere between Chesapeake Bay and Long Island, New York, starting early Tuesday morning.
But pinpointing the spot where Sandy comes ashore is less important than usual, because by Monday night gale-force winds, accompanied by hurricane-force gusts, could stretch for hundreds of miles in either direction of the storm's center, weather forecasters warn.

Why we chose to give a long-term gift
Curt and Nora NicholsCurt and Nora Nichols gave their first donation to World Concern 30 years ago. They were newly married and Curt had just started his career in the technology industry.
Fast-forward three decades. They've raised four children, Curt recently retired, and the family has made a huge impact in the lives of the poor through their generous donations to World Concern.
"It's so evident there's such a great need," said Curt. "Christ commanded us to be generous with what we have. I've seen World Concern's work they do in places of great need, and I've seen the impact on people's lives. It's an organization of quality people committed to Christ who want to help others less fortunate than themselves."
Curt and Nora want to continue helping the poor even after they're gone. In addition to leaving an inheritance to their children, they've included a gift for World Concern in their will.
"It's pretty simple. You don't get to take your worldly possessions and treasures to heaven. You never see a U-haul or an armored truck following your hearse," said Curt. "Somebody's going to get your money. Wouldn't you rather plan and direct who will get your life's legacy?
"World Concern's mission is something we believe in strongly. We want to continue that support with a long-term gift."

Mini-Ravens are small Ravens that only appear in a few levels in the game Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and its remake Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3. When Yoshi eats them, they are automatically digested without being turned into a Yoshi Egg. Like their larger cousins, Mini-Ravens can climb walls and ceilings. Mini-Ravens don't appear in any other Yoshi game.
Super Princess Peach's standard Ravens are extremely similar to Mini-Ravens, being small and giving no Vibe energy if attempted to be absorbed (in a similar manner to how Yoshi could not produce eggs upon eating Mini-Ravens). If these Vibe Island Ravens are to be thought of as Mini-Ravens, then Sad Ravens can be considered a Mini-Raven sub-species.

Meteors That Changed the WorldThe Black Stone of the Kaaba
The most famous sacred meteorite is the Black Stone of the Kaaba. The Kaaba is a cubical building in Mecca toward which Moslems pray five times daily. The Black Stone, set in the northeastern outside corner of the Kaaba, is considered to be the most sacred treasure of Islam.
The Kaaba also served as a center of worship for pre-Islamic Arabs and was reputed to contain 360 idols. In 630 the triumphant prophet Mohammed returned to Mecca and cleansed the temple of the idols after honoring the Black Stone. The heretical Qarmatian sect stole the stone in 930, but it was recovered 21 years later with positive identification provided by the stone's ability to float on water. In 1050 a mad Egyptian caliph sent a man to destroy the relic. The Kaaba was twice burned down and was flooded in 1626. During these trials the original stone was broken up into about 15 pieces. It was finally set in cement surrounded by a silver frame.
In 1980 Elsebeth Thomsen proposed that the Black Stone is an impactite (fused sand mixed with meteoric material) from the Wabar Crater in Saudi Arabia's Empty Quarter (Sky & Telescope: November 1997, page 44). The Wabar impactite is a hard glass (so it is tough enough for repeated fondling yet can shatter) with a porous structure (so it can float) and having inclusions of white glass (the crystals) and sandstone (the banding). The change from its original lighter color could be due to the accumulated oils from frequent kissing and handling. A critical problem confronting this proposal is that several measurements suggest the Wabar Crater is only a few centuries old, though other analyses suggest it was formed 6,400 years ± 2,500 years ago. Whether or not Wabar is the source, the Black Stone still fits well with a desert impactite and a meteor tradition.

Google faces obstacles in S.F. Wi-Fi bid
October 3, 2005
Who will emerge victorious in the race for consumer loyalty? Who will be first and best in delivering the next generation of communications--video, games, entertainment and other highly sought-after content?
There are those who believe that Google will be the victor. They see the company, with its huge consumer following and plans to offer free wireless service across the globe, as overtaking the cellular world.
I disagree.
There's no doubt that Google's collaboration with EarthLink on Wi-Fi service for San Francisco is a smart business decision and a natural extension of Google's brand. But like anything free, this new service comes with a catch or two for consumers.
To deliver free service, providers like Google usually partner with advertisers and require users to view their ads. Also, service quality is generally lower and less secure with free Wi-Fi networks. In short, you get what you pay for--average service and the nuisance of combing through ads. I don't know about you, but I fast-forward through ads any chance I get.
Don't get me wrong. Free Wi-Fi is convenient. I often use it myself when I travel. But comparing Wi-Fi to third-generation, or 3G, cellular service is not like comparing apples to apples. This is where Google mania misses the point.
Wi-Fi is great for enterprises and municipal hot spots. It provides the voice and data services we've come to enjoy from our PCs without the pesky wires. But Wi-Fi signals travel only several hundred feet. So unless you have hot spots linked across your city, you will not get a constant connection as you travel. You will also have to sign on each time you change hot spots. And unlike 3G cellular, Wi-Fi is not built for full mobility.
3G is simply a better technology for the mass market. It offers ubiquitous coverage, traditional phone services and advanced Internet Protocol services like instant messaging, picture sharing, mobile video and interactive games. And it does so at greater distances, more securely and with higher quality. Unlike free Wi-Fi, there is no limit to whom or where you can call, e-mail or otherwise communicate with in the cellular world.
Wi-Fi, from traditional carriers or from content providers like Google, is a good complement to--not replacement for--cellular. Wi-Fi simply cannot accommodate growing consumer demand for ubiquitous, immediate device-agnostic content and services delivered in the most simple, entertaining and reliable way.
Consumers will gravitate to providers that can address their always-on needs and quality expectations. And I don't think Google has enough depth in that game. As appealing as "free" might be, it doesn't cut it if we can't get the content and services we want when we want them.
I'm not knocking the success of Google or other Internet content providers, but cellular providers are experts at providing the fundamental pathway for all content: the network. The caretakers of these networks (or so-called dumb pipes) are also the ones that ensure reliability and security.
The current Google Wi-Fi offer has other limitations as well. For one thing, the "free" phone service primarily works for PC-to-PC calls. Call your friend's cell phone or BlackBerry from your Google Wi-Fi connection, and it will cost you.
Another thing to keep in mind is that most PCs were not designed for phone calls. Most PC and laptop speakers, as well as microphones, do not provide the level of voice quality we've come to expect from our phone service. Moreover, laptops aren't the most convenient devices to carry around for making phone calls and connecting to the Web on the go.
3G cellular networks allow people to call any device, any number, from any location. And 3G cellular providers are in an ideal position to capture consumer loyalty and lead us into the next phase of communications because of a new technology called IP Multimedia Subsystem, or IMS.
IMS transforms the Internet from a static document storage and retrieval tool to a more interactive, entertaining and "live" environment with real-time services. IMS will allow people to take their Internet content, communications and applications wherever they go. And there will be no barriers, as they roam across wireless, wireline, cable, DSL and fiber networks.
Google's a strong brand, but I don't believe that it will win this race. A more likely scenario is that Google and other Internet providers will use IMS to work with--not against--cellular providers. Remember that the cellular providers that built the network from the early days, when people used their cellular phone for emergency-only voice calls, are the experts at delivering highly reliable, secure mobile communications.

- If Craig McCaw is betting correctly, and WiMax emerges as a real
player, then Google may be on the right path - provided that it
transitions to a WiMax world from WiFi. I don't imagine WiFi will be
anything other than a transitional technology, but all wireless

- Yeah, sure
- You guys were saying the exact same thing about Metricom in
2000- about how a metropolitan area network wasn't needed,
because 3G was right around the corner with similar speeds.
Here we are, five years later, and WorldCom's lies, executive
incompetence, and terrible marketing killed Metricom, but 3G is
still "just around the corner" with speeds that still don't
approach what Metricom delivered in 2001.
How nice of C|Net to give Nortel all this free advertising and
bully pulpit - but I think I can count on the folks at Google to
get this one right.
Some other reasons?
3G has data user uptake in the low single-digits, while virtually
every laptop sold has 802.11.
802.11 uses free spectrum; cellular frequencies cost a bundle.
Verizon's slow warming to bluetooth means that most 3G data
users still have to rely on a PC card, complicated setup, or a
dongle to the phone. How nice. Wireless with wires.
Nortel hasn't convinced me, and the assorted baggage of using
3G for data means not many other people will be convinced,
either. - Like Reply Link Flag
- Believe an executive from Nortel?
- While I do agree with some the points that the author is making, I think it's hard for me to trust someone's comments who is a direct threat to their business. Of course, Free Wifi is going to a concern to someone that's in the telecomm business. Where do their profits go?
Google has revolutionized so many mediums and cause many companies to rethink the game. I think that this is just another example of Google doing that. Sure, Google is making a ton of money, but not at the expense of annoying the general consumer public. Can anyone say that of someone like Microsoft? - Like Reply Link Flag
- uneducated post
- current indoor wifi networks, wimax, and yet-to-be-developed software will solve the problem 90% of the time. for the other times, you'll need your 3G connection. and goog or someone else doesn't need to own the pipe to provide their core search/content service. they just need users who are not 100% connected to carrier-controlled data connections--which will happen soon.

- Has some good points but is carrier-centric
- I think this story has some good points - the key one being that were moving to an IP based communications world. The point it doesn't make is that once you have made that transition whose pipe you're on doesn't matter and users will always use the most appropriate connection that they have access to and can afford. So things like VoIP and IP based TV will be great levelers - there will no longer be a requirement to have a connection from a phone company to get connected. It'll just - perhaps - give you better coverage.
The issue with WiFi - which I agree with - is it was never designed to solve the problem of ubiquitous coverage. But I think WiMax (not mentioned in this article) will have a huge impact and I'm sure the likes of Google are fully planning to roll out their own WiMax networks as soon as the technology is there and clients technology is widely available (Intel will take care of that).
At that point (say five years - my guess) I think WiMax will soon begin to challenge current cellular networks especially in metropolitan areas where, lets face it, most of the country lives. And indeed in flat rural and suburban areas it will also excel and be cheap - it'll just take longer for companies to roll out coverage in those areas.
I'm actually hoping that WiMax will bring a very large number of smaller ISPs (like say Sonic.net in California) to provide more robust meshes of coverage and more competition. Instead of we have ridiculously centralized and monolithic carriers and get into situations where a single backhoe can take out all Sprint coverage in California. Duh! When there is a multiplicity of IP "dial tones" out there consumers will be able to jump around at will - maybe even to a local legacay WiFi network if necessary. - Like Reply Link Flag
- fixed low cost metro networks
- WiFi/VOIP metropolitan networks will pose a serious challenge to cellular operators (profitability), especially with the advent of dual mode GSM/Wifi handsets, which might try VOIP wifi first and then fallback to GSM. Not to mention business PABX'es which will try to exploit metro VOIP as first option.
Similarly with metropolitan wifi internet access.
Having said that, metro wifi networks will drive down the prices of 3G data access, and 3G will become an increasingly cost effective, with high quality and convenience. Whereas free wifi networks might be overloaded, and less inconvenient.
However fixed monthly low cost, high quality, 55Mbit metropolitan mesh networks (built on open standards, using relatively cheap equipment eg. PC components, and Linux), are surely gonna be disruptive to fixed line and cellular operators. - Like Reply Link Flag
- Never Mentioned WiMax
- While the arguments presented make sense this article completely fails to address the issue of WiMax. Current WiFi will never work, but it is very clear that WiMax with ranges of 30 miles not a few hundred yards at best, will completley change the equation and Google will gain valuable experience that they can leverage when they upgrade their strategy with WiMax which IS a VERY serious contender to 3G. I have used 2.5G and 3G for nearly three years and it is a miserable failure when one seeks to utilize a VPN connection.

Voice Actors
Cummings, Jim
Birthdate: 1953
Birthplace: Youngstown, Ohio, USA
These are links on Jim Cummings, one of the most prominent character voice actors in the last 2 decades. It's not too much of stretch to say that everyone has heard Jim Cummings at one point in their life or another. Since around 1987, Jim's voices have been featured in dozens of popular animated series. But even if you don't watch cartoons, the only way to escape hearing Jim's voice is by not watching TV at all. He frequently provides voiceover for theatrical trailers, and both radio and TV advertising. He's probably most known for his lead character roles in animation, such as Monterey Jack/Fat Cat/Professor Nimnul on "Chip & Dale's Rescue Rangers" (1989), Darkwing Duck/Drake Mallard/Negaduck/Herb Muddlefoot on "Darkwing Duck" (1991), Taz/Wendel T. Wolf/Bob on "Taz-Mania" (1992), and both Bonkers T. Bobcat and Lucky Piquel on "Bonkers" (1995), and the voice of Winnie the Pooh since Sterling Holloway passed away. Other than Frank Welker, Jim is perhaps the closest we have today to Mel Blanc. ============================= Fun Facts & Trivia on Jim Cummings: - Performed 32 different characters on "Chip & Dale's Rescue Rangers". - Filled in as the singing voice for Jeremy Irons as Scar in Disney's

Sony PHA-1
I'd been considering the Fostex HP-P1 but seduced by the dual funtionality of the PHA-1, I took a punt on one and ordered it from Japan. It arrived yesterday after taking around 3 weeks (3 days in actual transit and 2.5 weeks sat in customs!).
First impressions are good, the design and build are superb, and I'm impressed by the step up in sound quality from the ipod, but I do have a problem. Using the USB from a mac creates buzzing and distortion - at first I thought it was a fault, but then I tested it on my wife's PC and it automatically downloaded some drivers and worked perfectly.
For some reason it doesn't automatically install drivers for the mac and I can't find any to download on the net - would seem odd if they created a device to work with an Ipod that didn't also work with a mac!
Any ideas?
Worked it out now. Needed to change settings in Audio MIDI to 96hz 2ch-24 - it was buried in the Japanese instructions.
I'm also very tempted by this one! The fact that it works on a computer and an iPhone and a Galaxy phone is really appealing!
Have you compared it to any other similar DAC + amps?
Hi quadpatch
Unfortunately I don't have a direct portable comparator (read your review of the HP-P1 with interest BTW), I've playing about a bit though:
1. Ipod > Pure I20 > Beresford Caiman Gatorized
2. Ipod > Pure I20 > Beresford > Graham Slee Novo
3. Mac > MF VDACII > AudioEngine N22 headphone out
IMO It stands up well against 1 (much more spacious) and 3 (quite similar), but 2 is slightly better with more defined bass, and less sibilance.
In terms of headphones, I've tried AKG K702, Beyer DT1350, Westone 4R. It has no problem driving any of them, but then none are particularly power hungry. The sibilance was only really a problem with the AKGs and it seems to be getting better (or my ears are getting used to it).
There's a few things I really like about it, the volume pot is very nice and weighted beautifully, I can't hear any background noise even with the IEMs and the rubber band attachments are nicely thought through.
After I bought it I noticed Rakuten were doing a good deal on it (£250 + duty) which unfortunately I missed - I just checked and they've sold out now.
Hi Andrew,
Thanks for the info, that's a really nice comparison! I see so it can't quite stand up to the Graham Slee, and that doesn't surprise me at all. I must say I was hoping for a little bit more from the Fostex HP-P1, it was decent, but I wish we could squeeze a bit more out of something so expensive so I am really curious about this Sony and the new CEntrance.
Shame about Rakuten, I had never heard of that place before. Did you get yours from eBay?
I got mine through a company called shopping in Japan, with duty it ended up costing around £400, which I think is a little expensive.
Rakuten is Japan's answer to Amazon, they recently bought Kobo and Play.com - the Sony's back up there now and even a little cheaper at £243. Would probably be just under £300 with shipping and duty costs. Which having played with it for a while now, i would say is a fair price.
The Centrance seems to be the one that most of the headfiers are excited about, and they seem to have a very inclusive approach to product development which is nice. But according to their comparison page of similar items it will eventually retail for more than the HP-P1.
I am enjoying the Sony, it might even be good for my health - I've been taking a few strolls in the snow while listening. The DT1350s work as excellent ear muffs too.
Hey thanks for the heads up on the Rakuten price! For £300 I am very tempted it must be said.
Haha I was out in the snow playing with the V-Moda M-100 today - still trying to love them - with some EQ on Dubstep it was really quite impressive, it got fatiguing after an hour or so, but that's not really the headphone's fault . Anyway they also act very well as earmuffs .
I just tried buying the PHA-1 through Rakuten, unfortunately it goes through a reseller and Rakuten leave the rest of the transaction to them. The other down side is that they want to tack on an exrta £50 on top for the money transfer, so with that and postage, VAT, Duty and admin fees it's going to go up well over another £100. That's just put it into the annoying territory for me so I am asking to cancel. I don't know why they don't just allow you to do Paypal but there you go
That's really annoying - I don't blame you for pulling out. Seems like the Ryanair pricing model again!
But keep an eye on the price, the Yen seems to be really sliding against the pound.
Hey Andrew, They wouldn't take paypal so thankfully they were OK with me cancelling the order. I was getting really excited about getting it too. I will keep an eye on the place you bought yours from and see what happens.
I have also sent an email to Sony asking if there's any likelihood of EU availability for the PHA-1 in the near future. It was difficult to find a good email address for them so I'm not sure if they will respond. The distributor who helped me out with the Fostex stuff also deals with some Sony products so I will try to get him to enquire also. It would be a shame if this model doesn't make it over here. There are so few DACs that work with my phone, even less with the iPhone so I would have thought this would be a no-brainer, especially if they can keep it cheaper than the HP-P1.
I wouldn't expect too much from Sony UK on this one just yet, I called their customer service with my initial problem. They hadn't heard of it, had no record of it, and after a day they left me a message to say they couldn't find anything out about it. Let's be fair, at least they tried!
After a bit more use, I'd describe the sound as extremely clean. Perhaps a little too clean and digital with certain types of music. I'm currently listening to some 24/96 piano music and it's quite lean and even harsh sounding. Time to stop I think!
