Happy Birthday XXHE

[Calibrator]

You entered the world three years old, and I've watched you develop from a raw temperamental bundle of coding, to one of stability and maturity. You have developed some unique skills along the way, and you have your own way of doing things which might frustrate some outsiders who haven't got to know you fully, but most importantly, your voice is now unequalled amongst your peers.

Well done, and I'll look forward to the day you come of age, which shouldn't be too long now, according to the proud father!

I'm sure all your friends here will join with me in wishing you all the best.

Best wishes,

Russ

Dear Russ,

I still owe you a big thanks for the cake and everything; at the time of your post I didn't come around to it.

Yes, as it looks this is three years now, apparently a good time to at last change the GUI - and introduce some stability issues again.

I just looked it up, but the real start was at March 20, 2006, when I received a first email of my friend Carlos - natural walking jitter expert.
The actual roots though will have been the TheaterTek period (so sadly passed now), where I started with combining the movies with good sound. And I still think I am the only one using a PC to DAC connection which all starts with software decoding (of DTS etc.) in the PC.

Allright, let's say I am slow on things, but it really couldn't go faster. And, of course I have to thank everybody just using XXHighEnd and by that means contributing to the best sounding player existing at this moment (ok, this is what I think), and which I never could have done alone. It just takes too much time to do the listening on your own, and besides that, who am I to have the best ears.

I said it before, and I will keep on doing it : thank you all.
Peter
