So, I have owned the Moth 300B for years and have never once experienced what is happening right now. I was playing speakers through it earlier just fine, and was putting records on shelves, etc., so not being too critical. Wanted to switch to K1000s out the back so switched the speaker cables for the pigtail and went out on the porch. In order to adjust volume on the lousy recording I was listening to, I went into the room again and was thinking that the K1000s were really loud through the window and 10 feet away. But even after unplugging them from the pigtail, music played on quite audibly... So for some reason, this straight up power amp with now speakers attached is "playing" music. It is not a slight "singing" of tubes. I called JP who just recently borrowed the Moth (and obviously got is possessed by some spirtit at his place), and he could easily hear it over the phone. I have never once heard this and cannot understand what parts of the amp are projecting the tunes. Listening right now, the K1000s sound fine, too, so it does not seem to be "damaged." Well, I have to go make dinner and then see Inglorious Bastards with my wife. I hope somebody will have some kind of genius solution for the mystery later when I check back in. Thanks in advance.

You didn't know Birgir was a baby-daddy?

Of course you are invited in February, but if MOA II gets scheduled for March(ish) then would you really make two trips? Really?

I think you had better go back to badminton in athletic shoes.

I want some Brau

And yet, you are considering a Jag, the only good for the status champion? Seriously, chicks just can't dig a guy your age in a Prius. Simple as that. As for the environment/gas saving aspect, I think that air pollution/greenhouse gases/etc. are at the top of the heap, and the Lexus is a Super Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle and therefore much better than some of the sportier pure-gas competitors. Plus, it is the fastest sedan Lexus makes, so you got that going for you too!

I had two Audi A6s in a row and both were totally reliable. Honda and Toyota are out, Mike, those are non-starters for a man of your stature. Get the Lexus hybrid. I am loving mine.

That is some serious staying power! Congratulations on your family's achievement.

I have had this concept swirling around in my head since I saw the semi-drunk philodox post it. These are a few of the songs that bubbled up from the depths without too much analysis. For me, they fit the criteria. * The Who -- Behind Blue Eyes and My Generation and Sparks * U2 -- I Will Follow * Beck -- Loser * The Beatles -- Norwegian Wood and Day in the Life * Led Zeppelin -- Black Dog and Over the Hills and Far Away * The Kinks -- You Really Got Me and Waterloo Sunset * The Clash -- London Calling and Magnificent Seven * English Beat -- Mirror in the Bathroom * Muddy Waters -- Good Mornin Little School Girl * Miles Davis -- So What * Ornette Coleman -- Lonely Woman * Oliver Nelson -- Stolen Moments * Bill Evans -- Waltz for Debby * John Coltrane -- Chasin the Trane * Louis Armstrong -- What a Wonderful World Sheesh, that seems weird to just pick those, but all of them are perfect in their own way for me.

Pliny Birthday to you, Pliny Birthday to you, Pliny Birthday dear Matt the Younger, Pliny Birthday to you!!! Cheers, buddy! Looking forward to seeing you next month when I will buy you many beers to make up for the sadness that you will not be out here in February for Younger Time!

Sure you didn't. Fountains of Wayne -- Self Titled

How about just saying "no"?

Just when I was about to say we had gone soft with all the silly well-wisher posts in response to the "Hai guyz!", Fitz brought us back to reality. Thanks Fitz, and welcome to Head-Case. Don't fuck up.

I had at least one post in here yesterday that has disappeared, and it was between Dusty's Van Cliburn and bperboy's comment. Anyway, now playing: Brendan Benson -- My Old Familiar Friend

I think you both were reading too much into what Nate said yesterday, but I don't think it is all that relevant in any event. I don't have any normal bias stats, so using that cable won't be a problem for me.

Happy actual day of your birth Laine! Have fun with the family and enjoy some great tunes. Aloha!

Did you notice the same pic on PAGE 1 of this thread?

That's it! Thanks Nate, and thanks for the assist, Birgir. Padam, you are covered in failed, but thanks for trying.

This thread is all of the sudden grossing me out and making me want to vomit!

I forgot to say "Congrats Vicki!," so Congrats Vicki! Have fun this afternoon, but make sure your tubes all stand straight upright if you take any pics.

Congrats! I hope you gave the vendor shit for how long it took!

I am curious about the extension cable I just got with my SR-Omega purchase because it is round like a power cable and the female end has 6 holes like the Normal bias plug but the male end is just a 5 pin Pro bias plug. So what is the deal with that? Older version, obviously, but why the two different ends?
