  1. I'm skeptical about remastering - I can't say I've ever really heard a remaster that I thought was much better, but I have certainly heard plenty that were worse. This one feels pretty easy to get wrong. But I am excited about the re-release of the old demo tapes. That should be fun.
  2. There might be albums out there that are as good, but I am doubtful there are any that are better.
  3. Sometimes flipping toroids will reduce stray fields.
  4. While I cannot speak to the rest of New England, having spent winters in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and upstate NY, I can say that people in Connecticut* cannot handle their weather.
  5. You can cut a hole in the bottom plate under the PT and then add a small plate underneath to fill the gap. It will add the thickness of the plate to the interior which appears to be about enough, and it will be hidden.
  6. I've certainly chucked an end mill in a hand drill to chop out something small when I was too lazy to dig out the dremmel. But even of the drill was OK with the side force, it is not fast enough for milling.
  7. Sounds like you might need more amplification ... edit: D'Oh. Same joke, and your version is better.
  8. They are that, but they are available. DSHA3 and DSHA3F (specifically for Focals, picture below in walnut) are the current models, and Tom and I are very close to releasing the T5 which is effectively a DSHA output stage with tube gain. Indeed, I just received an updated T5 power transformer in the mail today that I soldered in not 10 minutes ago.

    Bubbles. and Omar, obviously. and Snoop.
  10. RIP Charles Emerson Winchester III.
  11. Happy Birthday!
  12. You want me to drink coffee from CVS? I thought you were my friend.
  13. Well, half of our drain pipes appear to be on the ground, but the coffee is here. Everything is fine.
  14. We're out of coffee. New coffee is supposed to be delivered tomorrow. If it is delayed by the storm, it is going to be a long weekend ...
  15. Am I just reading this wrong?
  16. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2018/02/13/cryptocurrency-mining-in-iceland-is-using-so-much-energy-the-electricity-may-run-out
  17. Happy Birthday!
  18. That you could do better for a lot less.
  19. Underrated and underappreciated.
  20. I feel like these two statements present a bit of a contradiction. Unless Diavelet is not as good at Class D.
  21. Call me old fashioned, but I like passive. I had custom ear plugs made from the same molds used to make my custom IEM tips. They came with various filters to adjust the amount of attenuation, and the type.
  22. That's an adorable cat and some decent looking cat trees.
  23. Unless the ruble is doing really well these days, I feel like $8 for a matched quad is about right.
