The tube DIY forum on AA is virtually the only one that isn't

Interesting read, particularly since it is about a whole bunch of douches... Lee (and son), Iovine and Dre. Richer than hell, but douches nonetheless.

Happy Birthday Jeff!

^ Yeah, no need to put up with an ass hatchet. As you ride more, a hard or firm seat will reveal its benefits to you, but fit (width to match your sit bones) is important.

Good for you! I think you are going about this correctly... take your time and work yourself up to it.

Good for both of you, thought I begrudge you your weather Cold and snow here. The cold I can deal with (as long as it isn't windy as well). Snow, not so much. c12, a 23 isn't much for a low end for you with hills. What is your front? You might think about a wider cassette, though others up on modern drivetrains can probably tell you more of what is available, etc.

Appears to be up now...

My brother has never mentioned hearing any hum with his (prototype). I'll have to ask him if he has ever noticed it. I didn't when I was testing it, but never tried any really efficient cans with it.

No shit! That looks... oh wait, Bryan said it already!

I would agree with the recommendations, both amp-wise and tool wise. My Hakko 936 is still going on its original tips. The ratshack tips ruin themselves As for amps, my brother has one of the beta torpedos that I built for him and uses it with his T50RPs, as well as AKG K501s and what's the Russian phone, Fischer Audio or something like that? It does fine with all of them. I personally prefer my Dynalo with my T50RPs, but that is probably outside the scope of your build capabilities at this point, and part sourcing would be painful.

Thanks Nate. Some questionable "marketing spin" in the above "The use of oxygen free cables..."

Yeah, that does suck Greg. I didn't realize these guys were in Downers Grove. I could have run over and talked to them in person for you if I had as that isn't that far away.

Just to piggyback onto this thread (instead of making a "Stoopid Questions" thread, which should probably be a sticky for me anyway). For balanced cabling (say for a headphone), I assume the normal is for standard size XLRs, and not minis? For a 4 pin XLR, is standard pinout: 1 L+ 2 L- 3 R+ 4 R- Since I haven't really used balanced much, I'm sure I'll have more questions...

It looks pretty decent, and the 3 reviews on Skil's site seem to indicate that the runout is good. I would miss not having a light, and not sure how useful the laser is (my Delta 10" doesn't have one).

Happy Birthday Mike!

2N3904s should be a very generic transistor... Fairchild or ON Semi should be fine? They seem to have all kinds of them. http://sg.mouser.com/Search/Refine.aspx?Keyword=2n3904

Man, networks are becoming lame with regards to story/series creation. http://xfinity.comcast.net/blogs/tv/2013/01/14/hbos-woody-harrelson-matthew-mcconaughey-drama-casts-michelle-monaghan/ Sounds more or less like "The Killing", at least to me?

Not that I am aware of. I always order dual primaries for any transformer (custom or other).

Done. Way to go Raffy!

Are you still using the latching switches from that computer case place Birgir? If not, what?

Happy Birthday John!
