Hosting Friends Bacon Lamb Dessert

Work event this week, with one of the better parties they've thrown (and they're all pretty good, this one at Reggie's Chicago). '80s theme party (though most of the crowd wasn't born then), with a co-worker's Tom Petty cover band, who were very good!

I'm not quite sure if I follow your question. I think you may have misunderstood us for another company which I don't want to name. We had pins custom machined for our connectors around 6 years ago, they are 1:1 STAX in dimensions and pitch. We have also provided these pins to several DIY'ers over the years as well and haven't faced any issues in 5 years of production. RR1 owners will surely attest to my statements as well. The connector for the INOX will be a fancier but, the fundamentals are the same. We will share photos of the final cable look in due course. The cable will be the same as the RR1 : Sommer Peacock MKII (Made In Germany). It's the 2nd best cable in the market for E-Stat use after STAX's ribbon, IMO.

Too tall BLTA.

Looks yummy, Grahame. But why was the dessert missing some bacon?

Absolutely! Not denying that at all. Just saying that you still need to be very aware using any table saw.

And yet, if you'd had that technology, you'd have 5% more finger than you currently do.

Kind of the reason we need artists - they think differently...

I can hear people warming up their Stax 4070's...

Congratulations Aumkar! Quite an innovative accomplishment! Can’t wait to hear more about the INOX and to try it!

Wow! Wow! I’m very excited and really looking forward to trying them. I’ll throw a big party to welcome you when you come.

I can't wait to try them.

Here’s a quad of Western Electric 300B in the Grand Cayman. Just something i am trying while waiting on the first batch of finished enclosures to arrive (the power transformers just got here by boat) how does it compare with 20B? So far, here are some bullet points - Surprisingly low noise. This is with dc heaters. The blue hawaii, or Grand Cayman with 20B or 300B all have about the same noise floor, using decent tubes. - The gain is a bit low. About 375x with WE 300B, 425x with EHX, and the EML 20B version is about 700x. [note: i havent tried changing any feedback setting yet] for comparison most Stax amps are between 500x and 1000x gain the lower gain could work out great if adding a preamp in front of the amp, but for a quick increase to 1000x gain simply replace the input tube 6SN7/12SN7 with a higher gain 6SL7/12SL7 As one would expect, distortion is higher. About .1 to .2% under load, or about 10x as high as the 20B which one sounds better is likely going to be very subjective and will have to wait until i get a 2nd one put together for proper A/B comparisons
