  4. We are up in Daytona so we will make a final decision on what to do on Friday. However, based on what happened during Matthew and the direction the tracks are moving we are likely to stay. Have over 50 gallons of water, a shitload of canned and dry foods, three propane tanks and much alcohol. HC party time.

  13. I was just reading HF and came across this "gem". It's not an amp...it's a "musical instrument"!! Yeah...what the fuck is it with Italian amps being garbage? Rudistor and now Megahertz... Bask in the glory of this hand built masterpiece: As soon as I saw this it was eerily familiar... So back in 1968 Stax released two schematics, the SRX and a simpler two tube design with grounded cathodes. Back in 2013 I released a schematic of a balanced take of that amp and built one unit. It was ok for a cheapo amp but yeah...nothing that sets the world on fire. Here is the schematic: Ok so let's look into this. Two 9 pin tubes so ECC83 input (pretty much has to be for enough gain) and any of the high power dual triode noval tubes. 6CG7 would work... So we clearly have a resistor loaded output stage with a grounded cathode and output caps (the big ones) and high value resistors after the cap to ground. The input is clearly balanced and not many versions of that possible with interstage caps. Electrolytic cathode bypass caps for higher gain and those silver things might be the input caps. Sure as shit there are four of them... Now for the PSU and just the parts quality... this sure as shit doesn't look regulated or filled with quality parts at all. I guess that and the mediocre circuitry makes this worth 1/2 of what Woo ask for the WES and a "musical instrument".

  14. My GF's friend is in Miami now and was totally oblivious about what is going on. She's more worried about a pageant she was supposed to be attending on a cruise ship () and we've been trying to make her understand what is heading her way. On top of that, her hotel is on the beach...

  16. Sören being a fucktard...glad to see nothing changes when I take a week off in Niagara. So pathetic... As for the review, if anybody thinks that I had anything to say about any of it... you have clearly never talked to Bob or followed any of his work. He told me he would write what he wanted and I got zero say in it, which is exactly what I wanted. This wasn't even supposed to be a review, he just asked me if he could borrow a Carbon to give the 007's an equal platform against the dynamic competition. I was happy to oblige, sent him my personal Carbon and also offered him a Pure Bipolar to try out, to create an even more even playing field. Both sets being driven balanced with amps that share the same design ideas. This was back in February or March and it was only after he'd heard that this grew into a kind of review. I knew he liked them as he bought the Pure Bipolar and will probably buy the Carbon as well but I didn't have any idea what he would write. Hell I didn't even know when it was posted, I only heard about it when my inbox lit up. Now normally I would never even entertain the idea of having reviews as pretty much all are garbage, done by people with the integrity of used care salesmen/realtors and are just verbal diarrhea. Just look at the garbage Jude is posting and he's far from the worst. You may disagree with Bob's findings all you want but he sure as shit is more entitled to his opinion that most. He did expose Focal and I know from experience that it isn't easy to hold up an opinion that goes against the "norm", no matter how wrong the "norm" may be. I have fond memories of the death threats I got from some unstable people after I said the HE90's were far from the best. I can also imagine how happy Focal were about all of this...

  17. Not if you assume a percentage of time in which cat and PITA coincide. In my experience that is approaching 100%. If a cat is a PITA 100% of the time, then when the subject is not a PITA it must invariably be a giraffe or something. Science!
