That Omega Railmaster will find its way to me at some point. With Omegas not holding their value extremely well on the used market, yet the relatively small number of these - recommendations on strategy to acquire?

It's just that those IR guns aren't that accurate even from a few inches away. They average the radius and that can skew the numbers. Anyways, I think something is amiss - but if you have checked it out, then just enjoy the sweet sweet music.

Can you place the gun physically touching the screw on the Cree device and read the temperature?

Cool. Then you need 4K support. Perhaps look at the NR series as well?

Perhaps one of the IXYS SSRs? http://www.ixysic.com/Products/SSRFormA.htm#Dual1FormA

You need something that supports ARC (Audio Return Channel) over HDMI.

Cool might mean it's not doing its job. How hot are the device fasteners after a few hours and the plastic package itself?

You really need wider L-brackets, though. The stick-on heatsinks won't do anything until they come off and rattle around inside the case and short something

2014 Cohiba Siglio 4

The pre-aged program by Cuba has been hit or miss and generally not received well by cigar nerds. Unless you believe that new boxes can be cherry-picked and compare with boxes left to rest for a while, the program is a good idea. I think this cigar suffers a bit from the rampant under-filling of cigars coming out of Cuba. Once the weather gets better, I will send you some interesting stuff. There are rumors of a gathering in Texas at some point as well. Funny - I have been wearing this watch non stop for more than a year now. I really enjoy it. That and I am too poor to consider anything new at the moment, including the blue-faced Milgauss which would be my likely choice.

That old tech. Okay, let me think about it and will PM.

It's this one: http://www.audiolab.co.uk/product-detail.php?pid=9 I will cover shipping - just need to get this out of my closet It's worth trying, even as just a preamp or DAC - not to mention the disc spinner. It is a John Westlake design (Peachtree Audio and other companies).

That reminds me - I need to sell my Audiolab CD player. It has easily the best Sabre implementation I have heard. I would be willing to let you try it out if you are interested - it's been sitting in a closet for years now.

I agree with the SK approach!

Transformer voltages are always stated under load.

Flight delayed from Detroit due to wind. Glad it is only that, but should be a fun takeoff.

Decreasing the ballast resistors could happen as long as Vgs is really close. You could maybe experiment with unequal ballast resistors on the n and p side. I wouldn't mess with it though.

It is nearly impossible to match n to p with these. Even the ones I sent were from multiple tubes of each.

It was a role model indeed

Made some more permanent modifications. First, couldn't get proper length hanger bolts, so shaped the bolts post cutting by holding them with my fingers on a bench grinder to emulate Steve's finger Then more pictures without comment Then when I got to one of the holes, there was no resistance in the drill bit. Ignore the hole on the right, which was the final hole, but found out the plinth isn't solid and the power switch wire is routed this way. The factory foot nearly pierced the wire!

Wonder if there will be a "Heavy Flow" and "Light Flow" variant?

"When"? They do make a pill for that...

It's easy enough to do in software, but I wanted to control the optoisolated switch directly. I think these chips are perfect for the job.

Yup!
