I put my order in, and it shipped. Awesome. If you check the Schiit website, you might see that a number of products they sell are on back order, and at the time of this writing the Freya S was listed on back order by about a month. This component is the piece I need to have a well-rounded stack, because I feel like my Vidar isn’t being “encouraged” enough by my Topping DX3 Pro+. It’s more of a source than a preamp, I feel. But the Freya, though. That thing is supposed to be a powerhouse, with the discrete Nexus gain stage. Apparently it’ll wrestle an extra 19dB out of your line in without distorting the hell out of it.

I really don’t have much to say about this. Whether Trayvon Martin was an aggressive little prick of a punk kid or the sweetest kid you could ever meet has no relevance to what these 911 calls relay. This definitely warrants further investigation, whether it’s racially motivated or not.

Neighbor 911 Call #1

Neighbor 911 Call #2
You can hear Martin screaming in the background and a presumably fatal shot fired.

I fucking love this prank call. It’s some of the funniest shit I’ve ever heard. This guy who goes by “JiZZy” calls AOL’s signup hotline and decides to have a little fun with the poor guy he gets connected to. Hilarity ensues:
