What did you do today?
I believe that's African Palisander

I hope it works out. I got a really good deal on it. The JET fence has a hook that grabs a rail on the opposite side of the saw, that seemed to be a really good idea as well. I like the fact that this fence can be layed down in the other dimension as well for working with thinner materials... I need to run power out to the saw and my drill press, so I bought a 4' power strip to mount somewhere on my bench... the lame thing is that the socket I'll be running the extension cord too is a GFCI, so I might have to change that out at some point... or just turn everything on at once and see what happens Still lots of knobs and dials I haven't figured out here and there on the saw... seems like an amazing piece of equipment. The only thing I'd like to maybe do, that I probably don't have tools to do is bolt the thing to the floor... once I get things layed out, I'll probably revisit this.

I guess I shouldn't also add this to the list then.... eh?

Good inexpensive desk/task light?
I finally found a light that I'm excited about. Not cheap, but hey... I'll be using outside mounted to various tools, as well as indoors: It's an Electrix 7305: Model 7305 [ halogen ] MR-16 halogen, dichronic reflector, 700 footcandles (~ 150W incandescent), 4000 hr. life bulb, 25" gooseneck, 90 lbs pull magnetic base, 12v transformer located in magnetic base, etc.

Magnepan 1.7
what "them" I had Mye stands on both my pairs, they're definitely the way to go.

Magnepan 1.7
I had the MMG and MG12s. I liked them a lot. The key with the trees was not as much absorption as dispersion.

The analog thread.
I think it's nice, but to really get the most out of the L75 you need to replace the top, not just replinth. That being said, I'm sure it will be an upgrade and allow you to use another arm, which is rather nice.

Cool. I ordered a few of the Columbia, Savoy and LRC samplers

any more "label" recommendations Torpedo? I really like the label grouping, it's working for me. Ripping now...

What did you do today?
Looks like my company is in for a bit of reorganization, in the 11th hour before the HP acquisition closes in a few days. I have wind of a bit of it, and I'm not pleased...

What are you smoking right now?
can anyone here still get the small swan vesta matches? The local place that carried them recently stopped, and I'd like to grab a bunch of them...

The Ultimate DIY Part 2 ? The KGITSOJC
yes siree.. now, what about 3 ch. topology, that implies the manufacturer can sell 1.5x as much stuff?

heh, good point! I'll try and be more careful in the future!

The Ultimate DIY Part 2 ? The KGITSOJC

I've been down this road myself. I've learned a lot with this project, and can provide a few comments and observations, that might be helpful (probably not though). First, I'm assuming you're using the Hitachi devices. The problem with the Renesas devices are poorer compliments compared to the original Hitachi devices. How do I know? Well, I had 1500 of them and about 3% of those are suitable for the Blowtorch clone. Yes, this was the (only) up side benefit of measuring all those devices for the DynaFET. In a somewhat related complaint, I had to use a distortion analyzer to dial in this circuit, in order to make up for the fact these devices aren't great compliments. Second, I used high Idss input devices, which are almost impossible to source. Once you can get a hold of the new production Linear Systems devices, this will help this. Third, I wish the circuit could swing more volts... that's my number one complaint. As you know, the limitation is the input devices, and a cross between Curl and Borbely (cascode JFETs) would be fantastic modification and would be my number one recommendation... yeah, I'd love to see this, please?! Fourth, relays suck for attenuators. I'd recommend using CMOS switches or reed relays, or just drive the mechanical switch directly. Fifth, the secret sauce here is the servo (I'm sure yours is better than mine) and keeping the thing thermally stable. To this end, a way to couple the devices together would be way cool and in my opinion, an important thing to consider in the layout. Perhaps like this: Sixth, I think it would be cool to do a limited edition run of boards made from Teflon or Arlon, ala Borbely... ya, that would be sweet. Also, could you include the 0.2" pitch needed for Caddock MK132? In my circuit, these are by far the best sounding resistors. Seventh, please include a Vendetta phono stage as well. k thx bye.- Opinions Sought (remolding of IEMs)
nate, any updates? - The Ultimate DIY Part 2 ? The KGITSOJC
