Most of them are gifts. They will just have to suffer. I should have a 22 f2.0 at my office tomorrow.

I will most likely be in Switzerland all of December so skis instead of bikes for me.

I love that people here love good music. All the gear lust in the world doesn't equal one aweome album side regardless of the source/amp/cans/speakers/etc.

First pass, I didn't get that one Jim, but on the second pass after reading the latest posts I lol'd.

I would have expected that post from Steve.

Once, many moons ago, our French waiter, realizing we were English, said "would you like it Bloody?, or Burnt?"

I think you would have to be towing Brent in a trailer for me to be able to drop you.

The amp section is giving me trouble. I have only tested one amp and it was giving me pretty weird value (I don't remember the exact value now.) The LED off the negative rail is very bright and the negative rail measured something like -0.8V. The LED off the positive rail is very dim and flickers when the amp is powering off. The positive rail measured +30V. I turned it on once for testing and haven't turned it on since. I figured that whatever is dropping the voltage is getting hot very fast and keep turning it on without knowing the reason isn't a good idea. I did test the PSU output tho. It gave me the correct +30 and -30 when disconnected from the amp. Like how I do with other things.... I made a LTSpice model for the amp.... I couldn't get the negative rail to drop like that no matter what I tried... weird... I guess I will have to turn it back on for more measurements now. I'm praying that the other amp board won't give me any trouble.
