"Fill your hand, you son of a bitch!" Thank you for that reminder!

The man just wanted to find a good beach to surf. Something with a good break. RIP, Col. Killgore.

I love that movie and True Grit (1969) has one of my all-time favorite exchanges

Time to watch my favorite Robert Duvall movie, "The Great Santini." RIP to one of the greats. Need to fit in "To Kill a Mockingbird" too.

RIP Consigliere

Someone told me D3a is a good tube, Did this in LTspice… Modified Megatron – one less capacitor in signal path and no feedback. Works in LTspice. That's always something.

Old, but never gets old.

Does anyone have any ideas what kind of damping Stax used in the Sigma? It looks like some kind of material like cotton wool but I'm not sure.. I'm thinking of replacing it, but what... it seems like it's not that simple... it looks like mineral wool... and it looks like they manually adjusted the frequency response of each Sigma using this wool... and i can't just take it out and put something else in...

for scale None of those chairs are in the sweet spot. But I did find a room for Ric.

Thank you, n-maher! I did see where a gent sent one in to be repaired by Niche. @luvdunhill I did not clean mine frequently, but it is worth going in there every now and again IMHO. Very easy to do and there's a few vids out if you like having a reference. HS

On a trip last weekend up the north shore of Lake Superior with my girlfriend and a wolf crossed the highway between Grand Marais and Grand Portage. My girlfriend rolled down the window and snapped a picture. I lived in the Northland most of my life but never thought I'd see one in the wild like this.

Just checking in on Tim .... yup, he can still play.

Okay one more - dude's shorts kill me.

Well, buying used is always an option, but you then run the risk of parts may need replacing, depending on age use, etc.. A new amp should give you more peace of mind. What does the BHSE offer over the KGST? I have listened to a couple of headphones on a BHSE, and I can say it is a great amp. I have also listened to the Carbon CC, which is an outstanding amp as well. I have yet to listen to any of the KG series and would love to compare them to some of the others I have listened to.

Exactly right. My own little slice of heaven. It has honestly been a really good post so far.

Did anyone watch even a highlights video of the pre-season tests? Wondering if Aston Martin is playing low profile.

I've seen a bunch of her videos, but I've never heard her sing

Interesting, never even attempted to clean mine - maybe I should?
