that person is a moron. the orpheus has 3 capacitor coupled stages. the BH is completely dc coupled.3 points

Last night (and the last night before Karen returns):Started with an Arugala and Shaved Fennel Salad Followed by a Smoked Fish Dip with Tortilla Chips The Fish of the day which was a Panko crusted Flounder with Asparagus and a green sauce I did not catch And lastly a chocolate Pot de Crème with hazelnuts, marshmallows and graham cracker crumbles3 points

For actual 220VAC line voltage, feel free to move the white wire back to its former position. The rest of Europe is pushing well above 240V so that's what I always set the amps to.1 point

For isolation I would use Aavid insulators, mostly ceramics if there is enough clearance, Aavid PPS shoulder washers and stainless steel mounting hardware tightened to 0.8Nm (M3 or #4-40 allen head screws). The Aavid insulators and shoulder washers are available in different sizes, depending on transistor packaging and size. I am attaching an ONsemi paper as well including mounting considerations for power transistors. For grounding follow this scheme, which shows pretty much the most complex case of a two box design, amp with a separate PSU chassis. Pic shows single ended amps, balanced would be slightly different as the signal do not touch ground, the amp chassis would change so that the inverted signal (cold, pin 3) would go to a second amplifier board instead to ground. Overall idea should be pretty clear however. Mounting Considerations - AN1040-D.PDF1 point

Club D'Elf - You never know (2022) Available at many streaming services: https://album.link/i/1606781019, Qobuz: https://open.qobuz.com/album/d06ti8igrjiub and Bandcamp:https://clubdelf.bandcamp.com/album/you-never-know From All About Jazz I very much agree.1 point

Karen is out of town and Peter is hanging with his girlfriend so decided to check out a local seafood market/restaurant. They specialize in fresh, locally sourced seafood so everything below uses fresh, local seafood. Started with a dozen raw oysters since they are my favorite Followed by a bowl of their blue crab gumbo with a main entree of grilled grouper with hush puppies, Cuban black beans and coleslaw for desert I had key lime pie and a cup of coffee (no picture because the second Tiki drink was catching up to me - See Drinking Thread)1 point

@skullguise - have not, I think we've been out to eat twice in the last two plus years, and maybe only once. I'll put it on the fucking list, though.1 point

my tube filament 6.3VAC supply was grounded with two resistors, (but too low of a resistance, only about 150ohms each) I did this to create a virtual center tap to avoid some annoying tube buzz I was getting from the beginning, it solved the buzz but I guess this added circuit also created a voltage potential that exceeded the el34 cathode to filament maximum voltage ratings and would time to time short circuit v- to gnd (arc in the tube) and pulled too much current in those moments that fried one of the KSA1220A transistors randomly. thank God I had fuses between my amp and DC power supply which probably saved my power supply every time. so with all this in mind, you got to wire the Filament correctly as Kevin has pointed out to avoid creating such a potential in the tubes.1 point
