Cooledit.....now that's taking me back in time. Loved it!

That is what became Adobe Audition! Adobe bought them and stopped giving away the base version :(.

What a shame.....

for the price... you can't beat it. To get something similar, you'd have to spend >$300

Cool. I'll try it. Free is good at where I'm at....

I love the Oppo products, but in your case Andre it makes sense to forego them and stick with a CD-only player. Any timeframe on when you're getting the MBL unit?

Hi Bob my Chord gear is up for sale i will be making a move only when they are sold i'm not a rich man and this gear is expensive i'm in no rush to sale what i own now is very good BUT i do like to change gear alot ( new toys ) the only units not for sale in my system are the Acoustat's because for the room that i have i cannot have a bigger model if i could this is what i would have i'm not only an audiophile i also love nice units i have owned many makes in my 40 years plus in audio it's like a drug but it only hurts the wallet not your health.

PS: For me it would be the 6s or the Spectra 66 or the Spectra 6600 any one of those three that where available i have friends with those and i haven't heard ANYTHING better dollar for dollar and i'm very serious the last pair built the owner chose them over a pair of Focal Grand Eutopias and that is big dollars,
