I have a friend who thinks he fucks up seiko watches. Now where's the logic/ science behind that.

Only Seiko watches ?

My dear old mum can't wear watches as they all stop working when on her wrist.

Wind up (properly wound) or not, they still don't work

Ah...then it's magic.

There now - does that help at all?

Knew a kid at school like that. They'd just break. That is stop working, he wasn't breaking them on purpose.

Michelle's eldest son is the same, knackered every watch he wore.

I like that Nick:succinct.!

Lunchtime, like time itself, is a useful and practical way of structuring our worlds though our bassman.

Asda didn't have any smoked haddock so today's lunch is going to be fish fingers.

I'm trying to decide whether I can and whether to send it back, dropped out a lot yesterday evening.

Might give it a few more days.

When it's working, very satisfactory sound. When it's not, no sound.

Go figure, tonight so far, faultless and it does sound blooming good. Dam just as I typed that it dropped out twice, but just for a semi quaver.

Decision not made yet.

Surely other people get these glitches?

Can't say as I do. What are you running it with?

A brand new Apple TV which works fine with the cheap dac.

Now it's dropping out most of the time. I have changed the optical Leed and just as bad or worse.

It'll have to go back to the seller.

I think I'm just a victim of dodgy sellers selling faulty gear.

The Beresford DAC was bought off someone here but I can't remember who, and that never worked consistently. However that is with Stan getting sorted out so I won't keep harping on about it, seems a known issue with that DAC which he has a fix for. So I am definitely not alone in experiencing these issues, just seems odd few experiences being shared here. Probably our small forum is too small a sample.

It's just I'm beginning to loose faith in the whole digital media. Kind of like my music to play right through, without punctuation of silence,

Oh well, I've requested a return. See what happens.

See how Stans DAC sounds when I get it back.
