Here's hoping she makes a full and speedy recovery. Glad the surgery went well!

It must have been this thread that prompted it, but I had the weirdest dream last night. For some unknown reason I happened to be in Scotland, and wandered uninvited to Duggeh's house (though I wouldn't have a clue how to find it). He decide it was high time to get me drunk, but for some reason he had to sneak out of the house. His Dad was hanging close by (and he happened to be a Yank), so Duggeh sent him off on some errand. Then he produced something he called sweetbread, which was in fact some kind of fermented fish. The object of the fish was to get a buzz started. Then we headed to the local pub, where Duggeh proceeded to thoroughly drink me under the table (the only part of the dream with a basis in reality, I'm sure). Oh and in the dream he had the goatee in his new avatar.

And the stems are going to be a tangled mess down inside the vase!

Uhm, That's kind of like asking Versace "How do you know that's a shirt". But... ... anyway!

Damn I'm confused.

Last time I got shitfaced and puked, I said never again. I was 16, so that was 32 years ago. Haven't been drunk since. Haven't felt I was missing anything, of coarse I didn't mention that I was paralyzed from alcohol poisoning that one time. That scared me into total sobriety.

Uh, Just realized that might be taken as me stepping on Nate's toes. Didn't mean to do so, just have some gathering dust is all.

I think you can get a general idea of what an amp is going to sound like from the design. There are a lot of factors at work however that come into play. For instance all Beta22 solid state amps don't sound exactly the same. Parts selections and layout factor into the final sound signature. Others can impart much more knowledge here than I however.

And he seemed to make such sensible purchases prior to this. After all he bought one of my stands.

I have a nice pair of TRS to XLR cables laying around. If memory serves they're about 8'-10'. If interested just PM me. I'm sure we could work out something.

Happy Birthday!

That is just fucking scary!

I don't believe it's technically in her feedback thread. And this is also now an MOT feedback thread, which may be subject to different rules?

Well either could be embarrasing on the top bunk.

You can probably imagine that wooden headphone stands can be tricky to ship at times. I kind of go overboard with packaging sometimes, however now and then there's just nothing you can do to prepare. Case in point, I once sent a stand to Micah (RedLeader) in Torronto. The package was packed very well, but when he received it the base of the stand was cracked clean in half. The box was flattened, and tire print was clearly visible on the box. It looked to both of us like maybe a forklift tire. I had insured the package, and Micah told me he'd file the claim from his end, and not to worry. Well it really hurt my heart to see my work broken like that, so I went out to the shop and built a new base (luckily it was attached to the stand from the bottom with stainless screws). Micah was able to attach it in minutes on his end, and we were both happy in the end. My point is that shit can happen, but how in the hell anyone can send out a load of crap like that in the first place is beyond me. I love my stands! Some so much that I hate to let them go. If I ever get to the point where I don't feel that way I'll quit making them. Damn! No slack cut whatsoever! I applaud your resolve.

Now that is pure win! I may just have to borrow that design.

Is that a lighter Mike? Sweet design! I can remember getting my smoking material in a sandwich bag once or twice back in the day.

DAMN IT! Have you all forgotten that Namaan and I have a future trade in the works? I'd appreciate it if you could bring yourselves to educate him on pricepoints after that transaction is complete!

Yeah, there's no substitute for real booty sweat, mmm!

Do you have a problem with educational TV?

You can keep up with her?

Welcome to the team Sherwood!

Duggeh, you might also consider finding a used pair of NAD 2200 power amps. The 2200 in bridged mode is rated at 400 wpc. I used a pair of them to drive my old ESS AMT 1D speakers. Those are the ones with the big ass Heil transformer on top, and the 2200's were stable as a rock, with a shitload of power. They can be had quite cheap now. If an amp that old makes you nervous, there's the Emotiva route... Emotiva Audio XPA-2 Two Channel Power Amplifier

Steve that really sucks!
