Squeezed this amp into a small Modushop case. Tight fit for the caps, but it works. Doesn't get particularly warm. An interesting alternative for planars.

Well shit: my mother was kind enough to buy me one of these: Sunny Spin Bike

Yesterday's Healthy Today's fusion fun Luxury!

Honestly, I've abused the heck out of my Toro. I've made it clear just about everything, from heavy wet snow to ice crusted junk. It has its limits, don't get me wrong, but for the price it is impossibly good. I think the most insane thing I've done with it is clear 3 or 4 storms worth of snow off the deck (some 30"). It took a while, and I had to attack it in layers, but was still way easier than actually shoveling. And it's currently snowing outside, so odds are good that I'll start tomorrow by using some variety of snow removal devices.

As there is one more KGDT being built I thought I'd post some pics. I went with Jose's suggestion regarding the placing of the amp boards, seems to be the best compromise. I had concerns with the AC heater leads but no hum. A modest +/-300V but very nice with normal bias Stax. And 6/12V tube rolling possible.

Happy Birthday! Have a fantastic day!

Happy Birthday Nate!!

Happy Birthday, Nate!

Turns out the Eldritch god that lives in my table is more finicky about input voltage. Bought an AVR and have had no issues since then. Until it becomes displeased again I am sure.

Happy birthday to everyone's favourite American communist! (парты фавоур ноиз)

Very Happy Birthday!

A little more than I need so far but amazingly affordable. I'll do my best to get some pictures of the neighbor but I've only seen her a couple of times when she's not in the car with hubby.

Happy Birthday Nate!

Happy Birthday !!!!!

Happy Birthday, Nate! Have a great one.

The Telarc SACD of this is sounding very nice today

This would seem to warrant a "pics or ban" sort of comment, but let's not get all stalkery. Serious suggestion, in addition to Jeff's excellent recommendation I'd have a look at something like this - https://www.amazon.com/Earthwise-SN70016-Electric-Corded-Shovel/dp/B073V482GY/ref=pd_cp_86_1?pd_rd_w=ccxxo&pf_rd_p=ef4dc990-a9ca-4945-ae0b-f8d549198ed6&pf_rd_r=8NWC5BQA6354XCBW7BDA&pd_rd_r=f47fe814-3d03-11e9-aaa6-cf0e18ac2bd6&pd_rd_wg=KpYhO&pd_rd_i=B073V482GY&psc=1&refRID=8NWC5BQA6354XCBW7BDA - I bought the Toro version 6 years or so ago and it's paid for itself more times than I can count. In a pinch I've used it to clear several inches of snow off of the whole driveway (175' long, many extension cords used...) and it's a back saver for clearing decks. And we're in roughly the same boat as Todd. It's snowing currently but only predicted to drop an inch or so but then there's ~6" predicted for tomorrow night, depending on who you believe.

Closed on my new home late yesterday and moved today. Too tired to celebrate tonight but picked these up so I am ready. 4 months living in limbo. I am home now.

Last night, in reality, but Steve made his famous Tice's Bacon Mac-n-Cheese for dinner. Other than its deliciousness, the song says it all... E9888757-4791-4D1F-9EAE-AB0C8C4E1483.MOV

I like the magnetic resistance, heavier flywheel and road bike bars. Possibly not but possibly.

Speaking of on repeat, this is epic: I have their first album. I don't remember it sounding anything like this.
