Building custom stands with the crossovers mounted inside them is an easy fix here. I'm building such a project for Marc.

^ Doooo eeeet!

So $549.00 includes most everything needed, save for case and connectors? Seems like a pretty decent deal to me. I'm assuming that if I desired multiple switched digital inputs I could add the S/PDIF 4:1 MUX/Receiver Module?

So is this new Buffalo going to require an Ivy or Counterpoint to sound it's best, or is that built in to the new board?

Well not having a girlfriend gives him a lot of spare time.

Have a great Birthday Mike!

Sinking the screws about 1/32-1/16" below the surface and filling with Durham's Rock Hard Water Putty will work great, although Bondo is perfectly acceptable as well. Then I'd use a bearing guided straight bit to flush up the top and bottom plates.

Nebby that bottom dovetail is damned near perfect, I doubt you could get it any closer. A little tip for your finished product...After cutting and fitting the dovetails, take some 220 grit sandpaper and lightly go over the joint. This will fill any minor flaws or voids with fine dust the correct color. Then use a jersey rag (old T-Shirt) to lightly wipe down the area (no compressed air here obviously). Take a can of spray lacquer and very lightly spray over the joint from about 12-14 inches away. Just a very light touch, and if you have no lacquer around hair spray will substitute well as long as it's the aerosol type. Give that time to dry and very lightly sand with 400 grit. This won't interfere with your chosen finish, and will give you a perfect joint. Your box plan seems reasonable to me. Give me a powertool over handwork any day! As long as new tools are invented to speed up the woodworking process, guys like me will keep buying them. I have great respect for the woodworkers of the past, but we gots 'lectricity now baby!

Very nice Blackmore!

That is a very old Porter Cable dovetail jig. They just don't build them like that anymore. Those suckers are rock solid, and highly coveted by wood junkies like me. Any chance you could sneak that out in your lunchbox?

Color me impressed! Nice work. I'll be excited to watch your progress here.

Oh sorry, I wasn't aware that Victoria's Secret was having issues with their server.

Now there are some helpful and useful ideas. I always hated pop quizzes anyway.

So I just flunked my first exam huh? I better study up for the next one.

Yes, damn it!

Do I need some of those for the mos fets on the F5?

Dr. Wood will prep the O.R. for Teflon surgery, stat!

What are those? They look plush as hell, and could be a ripe candidate for Ortho-scopic surgery doners.

Can't wait to see a pic of the little beauties sitting on top of your big beauties! That will be one damned fine speaker rig Sir, and I'm completely jealous. A bad ass reel to reel would really complete the retro look.

Happy Birthday Douglas ol' bean!

This may be my second DIY project, sounds like a good candidate.

I clean my email inbox regularly, so no luck there. It's no problem to order them though, I'm not going to be finishing the amp in the next week or so for sure.

Oh, were they supposed to arrive with the 1K resistors that just came? The invoice is long gone, but I'm positive they weren't in that shipment, just 6 of the 1K resistors.

No idea, I'm assuming they'll be connected somewhere at some point. Marc?

With 2.2K 3W resistors...
