Burmester Music Server 111 ...

[MarinJim]

How about a group buy for a "Gary's Stupid Really Good Music Server"? . That is, for those who can't cough up the $50k just yet.

How is the quality of the "stupid good server"?

Paging Garylkoh! Paging Garylkoh!

Sorry. I'm in France, and hurt my back the second day I got here. So I've been flat on my back in a hotel room since then. WBF was the furthest thing from my mind as I couldn't get in on my cellphone.

A group buy isn't necessary - the parts are cheap enough and won't get cheaper with volume. There are a couple here who have already built it quite successfully.

---Gary, get back in shape! :b

 

[joeinid]

I am so sorry Gary. Please get well soon. Please feel better.

Guys-I can't tell you how Gary's server compares to megabuck digital gear, but I can tell you that it sounds great in my system. I'm the one that coined the phrase "stupid good." Look at the gear I have listed on my page and you can see I own and make your own judgments for where I'm coming from. I haven't updated my system to show the ARC VS115 amp. Gary's server is the best digital I have ever heard in my home.

Hi mep,

Can you link to where Gary specs out the build? I am not sure I was reading the most current paper of his. Thanks! Glad you are happy.

 

[mep]

Gary had it posted on his Genesis sight before. but I'm not sure if it's still there. Maybe Gary can chime in.

 

[joeinid]

Thanks. I'll look again.

Gary,

Thank you very much. I hope you are feeling better.

---Few days ago I fell, and I hurt my left wrist badly. ...But it ain't broken, just badly bruised and very weak (no more full motion, and with constant pain). And I will survive with some healing time.
{Can't play the guitars and flutes no more.}

And I stil have my right wrist, so I can still 'cook' with that one. :b

 

[joeinid]

Feel better Bob. I'm sorry you hurt.

 

[NorthStar]

---Thanks joe; the wine still taste good, and the food too. :b ...And I still sleep good at night.

 

[MarinJim]

Hope you are right handed Bob, and, that you heal quickly. Thanks for the info Gary!

 

[NorthStar]

Yes I'm right handed; but still, you do need your two hands to play a musical instrument.
...Or play golf. :b

 

[garylkoh]

Get well soon, Bob. I'm on my way home! In a wheelchair, but I made it to JFK. Just have the North American continent to cross......

 

[NorthStar]

How are you going to cross it Gary? ...Train, plane, automobile? ...Wheelchair?

Heal quick! :b
