I worked at a used camera store many years ago. We'd periodically find little red plastic circles that said "Leitz" on them in boxes of junk. People would pay real money for those. Even more, apparently, if they are glued to a Panasonic P&S.

The power supply matters so much more, and is so much harder to design. Amp circuits are a dime a dozen - they all more or less sound the same.

They better be careful they don't get sued over those rounded corners.

I have a couple and very occasionally they're really useful. But if I didn't have them, I probably wouldn't buy them.

both of these should probably have good air filtration.

It sounds like music written by a Large Language Model (Large Musical Model?) - a compilation of everything that came before. As such, it's the antithesis of creative, but it's perfectly structured for now.

If you use a shunting pot (configuration B below) built with a regular audio taper pot instead of a quad pot in a balanced design, besides being both cheaper and inherently symmetrical, nearly all of the taper is in the first half which makes amps appear to these sorts of people as being more powerful than they actually are.

Same cake as the last time, except for passion fruit filling this time.

Square format is underappreciated.
