Pics please!

^^^ This peanut says that I'll get you to explain it better to me this weekend. Honestly I do much better when I just get a bill that says "this is what you need, and this is what you need to pay". Will the diodes be pretty and color coordinated?

^ Can I come over?

Even if you knew where the problem was, just getting to it would be very difficult to say the least.

Happy Birthday Icy! That didn't sound right, Happy Birthday Icarium!

I'd say you have your answer then. At this point I wouldn't be able to consider it anything other than criminal, and personally I'd start legal proceedings. I guess waiting until after the meet couldn't hurt, but my expectations would be low. I'm sorry you've been treated this way.

They look easy to clean too. Always a factor with me! I've yet to install one of the new waxless seals, but I'm interested in those too.

Nice. I'm not too familiar with the Marantz, but the Sony sure sounds like a nice piece of kit.

It looked pretty much like any other toilet. It's a one piece, but I have no idea why it was so expensive. Chances are you may have some rot in the joists too. If so you can treat them with JASCO TERMIN-8 wood preservative to stop the rot from spreading, then sister some new wood to the old joists. I always recommend pressure treated in this application. Same with the subfloor, use pressure treated plywood under the toilet. Don't hesitate if you have any questions.

grawk what table are you going to be using?

Marc I'm just a pretty face (hey it's my delusion!), but you know that I'm wanting a premium build. Do you want some form of payment from me now, or should we wait until the weekend and discuss it in person?

I think I'm gonna give the case Marc found a try. I can't even count the negative posts about Par Metal cases. Plus I like the way the side plates extend, it creates a perfect recess for a wooden faceplate.

That's a question I thought might be too stupid to ask fierce_freak, but I have no idea. It is switched, the knob on the right is the output selector, and it has three settings. I'll check later to see if indeed a signal is always sent to loop out regardless of the switch.

While it may have made my penis extend a little when I opened the box, it's actually a Twisted Pear Audio balanced Darwin source selector. Basically it gives me 6 balanced inputs, 2 balanced outputs and a balanced loop output. This was really needed since I only have one balanced input on my Consonance integrated amp.

Technically I bought it a while back, but it arrived today. This should give me all the balanced inputs and outputs I'll ever need.

Will we see automotive radiators in computer applications soon? Those puppies are getting huge.

Ruff ruff ruff, ruff ruff ruff ruff... ruff! Actually I watched an episode of CSI that makes me think this might be legit. There are some very strange people out there.

Gorgeous cables Nate! I think both look great unsleeved.

I'd have to agree. Have you asked him to buy the amp back from you?

I like the buttons, especially the neon that lights up as you scroll over them.

Installed a $700.00 toilet. They don't install any easier than a $150.00 toilet.

I think there are valid points on each side though, and I agree with Reks about Earl. He's very passionate, possibly over eager at times (as am I), maybe not easily swayed, but no shill.

Just a side note. Those K340s look like the pair I made Cocobolo caps for. If so those used to belong to Mikah (Redleader), and are not Headphiled, but DIY modded.

I can certainly understand supporting a maker that you've come to like. I can understand putting up with a certain amount of delays, because you really like the maker and his work. I consider myself very loyal to the people I've done business with that I like in this hobby. I've had some minor delays with some of them that don't bother me in the least. Heck I suffer from delayed production at times, and it's usually no fault of my own, or life steps in the way. Most of the builders I'm very loyal to are DIY builders that are just doing this part time, so it's not entirely the same situation. I could send pretty large sums of cash to Warrior05, Fitz, fierce-freak, Nate, looser101 or namaanf without ever loosing any sleep. They just exhibit the kind of character that gives me complete trust in them. That doesn't mean however that my fanboyism of said builders couldn't be broken. Documented proof of wrongdoing to any other member would probably put me off right then and there. Illegal activity like that spoken of in this thread would have me jumping ship and crying thief at the top of my lungs. But even delays of the length we're talking about here would have to play a major roll in my decision to find another builder, even if that meant another house sound. I don't know if the allegations toward Mikhail are true or not. I really have no opinion either way. I'm just stating that I can understand a certain amount of loyalty for a builder until a line is crossed, then it's time to reevaluate that loyalty.
