I’m somewhat in the same boat but I remember Mister “Developers Developers Developers” Steve Ballmer who was also immortalized by the “Ballmer Peak” XKCD. https://xkcd.com/323/

So if you make 203k does it cost an extra 50 grand?

The number was something I heard on this interview. They seemed to have relevant knowledge. https://www.npr.org/2025/02/27/nx-s1-5308085/rare-earth-minerals-expert-discusses-u-s-ukraine-negotiations-on-ukraines-resources

This whole thing is so silly. It costs hundreds of millions and something like 18 years to build a rare earth mine. What company would be willing to risk that investment without any sort of meaningful security arrangement?

I had a bunch of problems with a recent Denon and noise. One issue is present until I put the unit into ECO mode. The other required me to add a common mode filter to my input AC (I used an emotiva cmx-2).

It’s been frustrating because I’ve been running Denon AVRs for years and this newer model is the worst of them all for noise issues (AVR-X6700H)

A UDM-pro might be a good option in addition to some of the other suggestions here.

Steve Burke is a treasure. It’s rare to see anyone in the space stand up to companies like Asus because so many of them are dependent upon getting review samples for free and so on. He just doesn’t seem to give a shit and I love him for it, and his subscribers reward him for it. I wish the auto industry had more people holding their feet to the fire.

Not to mention the charging infrastructure is one of the reasons some people haven’t made the switch yet. Anything holding back charging expansion is a disaster in my view.
