  1. Happy Birthday!
  2. Happy Birthday!
  3. Should I say that I am working on the L3 which combines aspects of both?
  4. I don't know, I kind of like the T3 better. It is hard to compare as I have not heard a L2 in a while, but I could happily live with the T3 + HD650 as my end game setup. It doesn't mean better isn't available, but that this is an immersive and Hippocratic (does no harm) setup for me.
  5. I thought RS went out of business? I guess not. It is always a good idea to find someone who can teach you to solder, and who can teach you smart practices for working with electricity. This is a high voltage project, so having a person around who know what he or she is doing is a good idea. Oh, and I have piles of bad boards around for anyone who wants to practice soldering on something.
  6. It is a pretty easy and straightforward build. The hardest part about assembling an amp is generally the casework, and that is already done.
  7. Also, w/r/t/ upgrades: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunk_costs
  8. That's called buying sculpture, which is fine, but does it really apply here? Maybe I'm missing something.
  9. Music for Cats http://kck.st/1XB15er
  10. At the very least, I'd get someone to set up a double blind test so I could be sure the thing sounds at least different, if not better, than something cheaper. And Occam's Razor suggests to me that you just don't like the 009's.
  11. Torpedo 3 is now available: http://www.diyforums.org/Torpedo-III/TorpedoIII-overview.php
  12. We have a vegan Rastafarian restaurant in our neighborhood that is fantastic.
  13. That does sound terrible.
  14. Hartford is kind of like the San Francisco of the east ....
  15. I vote denser cities with more trains connecting them, and a tax on personal cars to pay for their externalities.
  16. How long does it take to charge a Tesla?
  17. Happy Birthday!
  18. Happy Birthday!
  19. Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto!
  20. Took 12.5 years.
  21. There is also the 24 Hours of Throbbing Gristle cassette suitcase set: http://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archives/2015/01/12/for-the-serious-throbbing-gristle-fan-who-has-almost-everything http://www.discogs.com/Throbbing-Gristle-24-Hours/release/1352072
  22. We saw Jenny Lewis play at a weird old church in Chicago a few years ago -- one of the all time best shows I have seen.
  23. Had something similar a year ago. It was awful -- had a million tests done, including an MRI of my head. Nothing turned up. Doctor said in the end he thought it was a virus or some sort. Hope you feel better quickly, but take the time to do so. School's not that interesting. We went for a drive around western CT and MA to see the leaves, and met up with family for some dinner. It felt very New England.
  24. There was a time (88-91 about) when records were no longer available and things were not being reissued on cd such that old punk was cassette only. I owned a lot of tapes as a consequence. That said, I am not the least bit nostalgic about store bought tapes. This is a dumb idea. And I occasionally drive an old and shitty enough car that it still has a tape player.
