Just made it to the back of the line

Back in the city..

Lol pabbi1 started this thread.

Cool, I am having dinner in NJ - lmk where y’all might be in 3 hrs

Friday I will be in Princeton. Let me know where y’all end up on Friday after dinner and I will join up.

So I have like never opened up or cleaned my Niche - should I care?

My in-laws live in Turkey now and thankfully they are i dunno 400 miles from Adana ... we heard from them before we heard the news break.

One persons preamp is another persons gain stage I guess.

Spritzer, any good source (or left overs) for the PA97 at around $100 each? How did that little amp cut the cost down so much, I presume they are genuine Apex parts?

I am guessing two jfets and a pair of bjts and some resistors - my assumption is based on the J113 marking (but not sure what a PST22 is?) edit: maybe not I don’t see where the bipolar power rails would come from

Maybe these folks, though the schematics are no longer published: https://www.transcendentsound.com/

Awesome! I wanted to stay until Monday, but I had already committed to be in London that next week. Found the latest time I could leave on Sunday and here we are!

Hi all! I will be in NYC 2/20 arriving Monday at 7:44pm local time and departing 10:45pm on Sunday 2/26. I booked a room at the Four Points Midtown West (https://www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/nycmf-four-points-by-sheraton-manhattan-midtown-west/overview/) - I'm happy to consider a roommate!

Thanks!

Finally finished the last part of my side deck that will store various water things. Making the gate hard - I kinda made things up. I think maybe I did it all backwards, but oh well - there is no other entrance to this area so the gate stoppers are visible and since it’s all on a slope the had to be cut different lengths. It works and kinda matches the hog wire. At some point I would like to put something on the gate - some art of some kind, maybe need to enlist the ping-pongers Oh and you can see the concrete slopes where it meets the deck - grinding that down was super fun!

Careful, that might be construed by Larry as being a headphone stand

Me.

Looking at various other items for the system, starting with ViewSonic’s new PX748-4K and EliteScreen’s tensioned electric outdoor screen in 140”. Paying about double for the screen versus the projector feels wrong, but the ViewSonic feels like a good choice despite some odd features mentioned (ARC?) which I can get around I guess as I am planning a 2.1 system.. dunno if others have opinions, but this is the last piece missing working out the throw distance and screen size..

Is it a new/custom driver?

Cool. That seems reasonable. Thanks!

I need to laminate some things together and it’s not possible to clamp them. I want to just screw them together and later use the hole from the screw as a guide for a forstner bit. I am using West System 105 and 207 epoxy. My question is, will I be able to back out the screws? I assume so but if not that would be a huge fail.

That might actually work… if you have a spare bedroom to use as a speaker enclosure

Don’t worry, Ebony is always superior over plastics.
