Totally fair.  Here's where I read his impressions:  https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/nickelodeon-marc-summers-quiet-on-set-interview-lied-1235960541/ I agree he came off looking fine, but to some he might have also come off looking like a guy who will cast aspersions on his former employer over incidents he was not involved in.  That is certainly what served the documentarians best even if it did Marc no favors.   I'm just saying if I was his publicist I would have said "don't talk to them, it can only hurt you."  Considering the general level of interviewee they had (mostly technical staff interspersed with archival footage) I think a lot of publicists already knew not to let their stars on camera with that crew. It's a tough double standard, in a way.  A DA has a much easier time prosecuting a crime when people talk to the cops, but any attorney here would surely advise their clients not to ever do that.  It is in our collective societal interest to solve crimes and bring bad actors to light but it is almost never in someone's individual interest to be the one doing it.

I listened to a pair of Avantgarde horn speakers a while ago (one of the larger sets hooked up to some first-rate electronics, like their current Trio G3) - it wasn't honky-sounding at all. Definitely worth an audition!

Good thought, Kerry.  I checked but the resistance levels on the negative side are about the same as positive side for the amp boards.  PSU itself does not show a short.  I plan to rebuild the PSU, test it on the bench at low input voltage, then ramp it up.  Could just be one of the silicon devices was weak and took the others along with it.  

I've always been curious, but biased against, the horn speaker systems. I keep thinking honkiness. I'd need to listen to some good ones with some good neutral acoustic material such as classical. I could be all wet. And they don't meet WAF factors whatsoever And yes, Steve, all the PS Audio stuff kinda surprised me. I didn't know they were still around, and never thought their stuff was all that well thought of. One thing I am toying with buying is a pair of Schitt Tyr monoblocks to replace my Odyssey Stratos.

I had to dream somewhat reasonably, because my harem of twinks is going to cost a fortune to maintain.
