So far I've spent about 6hrs painting window trim. The only plus of that is that I've had the Jonokuchi driving a pair of Allison CD6s the entire time so I've had good tunes to work to.
If the wires are enameled you can burn it off with any iron worth anything and it doesn't get any more simple than cutting the end off a cable and soldering on whatever termination desired. I think we can pretty much end this thread with that.
Honestly, it was about as hard as plugging in a power cord.

Replaced the bulb in my sony 3-lcd projection HD TV. Surprisingly easy and there's even full instructions on how to do it in the manual. When I bought the TV 4yrs ago they told me to buy an extended warranty because replacing the bulb would cost $500. The bulb (OEM Sony replacement) cost $125 shipped and it took all of 15 minutes to install and required no tools.
Three transformers from Edcor, two of which showed up blue (as expected) and one that showed up without endbells altogether (WTF?). Now I get to find how their customer service is...

I'm currently working inside a 70 year old, 100' tall building with limited lighting, I figured a mega-watt flashlight would come in handy. Night ops require infrared or nightvision, not bright lights.
