Huge congrats Mikey! It's great to see you guys taking the leap and taking some chances to pursue your passions! I'm a big fan of the "be bold" school of thought. Keep us in advised,..

mini T2 v.23. Changes from v.22 Ground plane at area for brackets removed. Silk screen lines 20mm from long side edges, cut here if you want transistors mounted direct on heat sinks. Then you also have to run wires for +B traces just been cut. Be careful you are now close to other traces - only for DIYers. Regarding wishes for tblocks I want to quote myself (from a private conversation oct. 2018) “I haven’t used them at all with amplifiers and I have never missed them. Advantages are: - you can route the wire to the spot where it’s wanted, – the connection is much safer than with tblock, - saves space, – with a desolder gun or a solder iron they are easy and fast to “disconnect”. This also what Kevin did with his DIY T2 except for the outputs to earphone. With power supplies I use tblocks, then I find them convenient. Bottom line - IMO – tblocks destroys a layout.”

I added this cap just in case. It was more for testing. I was trying to improve the ability to withstand near shorts. In the end I added the external current limiters.

I've got a soft spot for Haim and the video is quality (directed by Paul Thomas Anderson). Also, um, nips.

Already hit them up a while back when sale was announced

Here is a picture of my third mini T2. Area for heat sink bracket screw holes cut away. Board now 160mm x 80mm and transistors mounted direct to heat sink. Inner dimension of case is 200mm x 161mm. This is the way I’ve built my amplifiers for some years now. There simply is no room for terminal blocks – will only make things more complicated for me. The real thing - DIY T2 has no tblocks either (except for output to Stax connector).

Oh lord.

Love This Giant Great album... turned the volume up a bit and I'm loving it. I do think David Byrne added a lot of warmth and humanity to Annie Clark's signature cold, brilliant style of music. I hope they do another album together soon.

Al is home safely and with crockpot chicken pot pie on the menu I decided that some risk to global calamity was acceptable.

RIP James Lipton: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/james-lipton-dead-actors-studio-909382 93 is a pretty damn good run.

It happens. My Skye has only started being a lap cat in her 6th year of being with me.

Left to right: 404, L700 and 507 Sigma The one with 404 driver is more laid back and has more colouring while the 507 one has the best transparancy . But the L700 sigma is the best with a very full bodied mid bass and excellent 3D- imaging and soundstage I have never heard of in any other headphones. Love all three of them

Finally she (in the middle, on the Prosecco) arrived from India. Surrounded by her new family.

RIP Joyce Gordon. I had no idea you were everywhere.

All weekend without being able to leave home ... fucked in the dust
