So has there been any thought on a name for the long awaited Bottlehead DAC? How does Anticipation sound? Maybe somthing based on the old naming convention, like Penetration.
-
If it doesn't have tubes, we could call it Castration?

OUCH! Wouldn't that make guys shy away from it?
How about Bee DAC?

... or Dac B.

Ok, DAC B Nimble...
Sorry!
-
How about Ascendant or if you want a play on words Ascendac

Bottlehead Dac B. (really like that one)
Bottlehead Dactaphone
Bottlehead Tubeless (reminds me how my granny used to call her radio a wireless)
Bottlehead Sandman (Sony copyright incoming)
Bottlehead Batbox
Bottlehead Hermaphrodite
I got it, the "Dac in a box"

Subversion or Subversive

Conversion.
Digital and religious.
-
I kind'a like Conversion. Says it all!

I suppose Digital Penetration is right out....

That's the best one so far.

Remember that this device of pleasure does not come with batteries included, so it is important to keep a fresh stock in the nightstand. ;D

I like
Best Digital Source for Music or B.D.S.M for short.

Oooh, that's a good one too.
-
I third B.D.S.M.

that's funny, I was just thinking about insertion... for the same reason.
-
Conception
Premature Digitalization
D Spot
Aural-gasm
All that being said I like the B.D.S.M too!

I don't know, as long as this has been in the works. I'm sticking with "Anticipation"...John

Anticipation has been used hasn't it? It was a mod to the original Foreplay I believe.
-
Yep! My Anticipation manual is copyright dated 1998, Electronic Tonalities. It was the original C4S upgrade for the Foreplay.

Gestation. :)
But really - BDSM is really good.

Well...wouldn't that be a "DAC Tease"?! ;D
Cheers,

B.D.S.M now that's just pure creative class
Wiki says "Interest in BDSM can range from one-time experimentation to a lifestyle"
-
If it doesn't have tubes, we could call it Castration?
That is reserved for a DAC that only works on a UNIX computer.
Best,
John
-
I agree with everyone else who thinks "Best Digital Source for Music or B.D.S.M for short" is a great name. However, if you want something simple how about "DAC Envy". For the obvious reasons.

I think 'best' is a bit pretentious, but I could go for Bottlehead Digital Source for Music.
-
If it's not the Best I'm not buying one.
:)
-
Glad to know many are amused by my suggested name.
I understand Doc's comment about "Best" being a tad pretentious but given my experience with your gear to date, I wouldn't say it's far from being a true statement.

Since there's an Eros, how about Philos or Agape? (perhaps too obscure)
Endorphin
Exstasy
-
Agape is great!
-
I like Agape too - it's digital so not quite as visceral as Eros. Plus of course, it sounds so un-digital it leaves your mouth agape! :^) maybe we should spell it authentically: Ἀγάπη
-
I'm reading definitions of Eros as physical love - more the visceral attraction, and Philia as mental love - more the cerebral attraction. I would suggest that this might be more appropriate to delineate LP from digital.
As for Agape, the unconditional spiritual love?
Well agape does rhyme with tape. Coincidence? I think not.
-
The meaning changes depending how you say it:
... "rhymes with tape" means amazement.
... "ah gah pey" means unconditional love (typically has spiritual connotations)
-
I think Philos is gonna be it.
-
Well, we are all audiophiles... So Philos seems appropriate... I can dig...
-
In french "une agape" is a small meal. It comes from the religious meaning of the word : "une agape" was the small meal the first christians took together in what would become known as a church.
-
I think Philos is gonna be it.
Ooh, since I named it does that mean I get a dac in the mail? ;D
-
Hi,
I posted in the other thread, not realizing there is this thread on this topic already.
I like most suggestions, but I am partial to "lust": it is carnal, yet virtual. It is satisfying in itself, although it is a necessary step to greater satisfaction.
And yes, a Quickie at the output would make even more sense with Lust.
;o)
-
What about a competition among forum members, then let the Queen choose a name from those posted.
Bernie.
-
There has been some great suggestions and its been fun following progress so I thought I would join in and suggest
DocDac or Bdac
-

Sure, as soon as your credit card information clears. ;)
