This!!!!

All over the local news here. So glad you guys are ok!

Glad you and Allison are OK Bryan! Scary shit, especially when it is that close!

Bryan, were the smores good? Glad you and Allison are okay .... and no injuries.

Whoa. As others have said, glad you're okay.

I'm the one who should be pissed as I tied with an actual Mexican. I guess tying with a Puerto Rican would be worse.....................

I like Lee's enclosures. I am tempted to pick them up myself, nice deal.

Especially with all that high proof fuel around Glad you are OK

As others have said, glad you're ok Bryan.

Fires are some scary shit! Glad it didn't reach you Bryan.

This.

Whoa....glad you are OK, and glad to hear no injuries overall.....

Today is the release for Brad Mehldau's 10 years live collection. I was introduced to Brad Mehldau by Matt, and he's a fantastic jazz pianist.

even not covering inflation, I wouldn't invest money I need in the short term in the stock market.

My understanding is over the last 10 years, no managed fund has out performed the S&P 500 after fees are considered.

Just checked my 401k for the first time since June (I took a cash distribution then). I kind of peered with one eye at my account in fear of what it might look like. For the year, it's down .16%. So after the roller coaster ride, the difference is just noticeable. Whew!

Happy Birthday!

I have to say, I LOVE how ESPN told Brent he won last night and then ripped that away from him and gave him a tie. Season high point for me.

It's good to know that the sarcasm will stay intact, even if the penis won't.

Clam chowder via my bro-in-law's recipe. With beer and crusty bread it was fantastic. Now, Go Cubs!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's not as if Audeze hasn't made piles of cash or somehow needs capital to make this new product a reality. It is absurd and further lowers my opinion of those guys.

Although I said there was no way to balance output tube sections in a previous post, I realized recently that I was mistaken. In the amp I built there is no way to adjust because I built the output loads with fixed resistors, however since the published schematic has adjustments in the output current loads, this can in fact be used to vary the cathode-to-plate voltage individually for each output section by slightly altering the current running through each section. The concept is, start with the output current loads fixed, adjust the cathode current sink to approximately zero the output plates, then vary the current loads to adjust the offset between + and - voltages for each channel. The three adjustments are interactive, so, it would probably be best to adjust one of the current loads to partially decrease the offset, the adjust the other in the opposite direction to further decrease the offset until that is balanced, then adjust the current sink to zero both plates.
