Now the real question is will I ever get it back! Enjoy it Stretch, I can't wait to hear it with the 800s.

Welcome to Head-Case Todd.

Not all tasks should be delegated.

What, you didn't get yours?

I think that's a touch alarmist. Nothing is going to kill the idea of CanJam, 99% of the attendees could care less what it's called. The first national meet didn't even have a name and was a complete success. Headfest was fine too.

Here's the issue: both in terms of size and attendance this could dwarf "CanJam". Is it a headphone specific event, no, but I think there are ways around weakening the branding of the name.

Why does this dilute the brand?

Not sure I want to trade a famine for a plague but we got ~7" of rain last month and it's raining like a bastard right now. In fact I just looked and there are flash flood warnings. Joy.

+ Welcome to Head-case, watch your step.

Not much bask story to share, I was asked if I would do it, I said yes. I think the story is similar for the others.

I don't Dusty noticed the rash of custom titles breaking out at Head-Fi...

I can't even officially tell you who to thank - it wasn't entirely my doing is all I will say.

I would have to agree that finding someone willing to work on any of these amps is going to be a difficult road. It's not just the complexity of the repairs (even on the "simpler" models) it's the liability associated with doing so that may have even good-hearted folks heading for the hills.

I don't have any idea what you're talking about.

Got link?

But it also means they can puncture solder mask in the blink of an eye.

Happy Birthday Greg!

I think amb attempted to explain what's going on in the head-fi beta thread.

I like cats, unfortunately I am allergic to cats. My wife is also allergic to cats. This is mooch, the only cat I ever had. He came with the house when we bought it and was exclusively an outdoor cat. But he'd stop by every night at 6:00 and meow outside the door till I came out and sat with him for a bit. Unfortunately the environment around the house is not exactly cat friendly and mooch is no longer with us.

In some of the discussions that amb and I have had regarding the failures that have been observed at times it has been suggested that it might not be a bad idea to have a Zobel on the output regardless of the intended use.

I have those as well but I prefer to use these whenever possible. Those long fluke probes are hellaciously sharp

Goddamn. Entire New 13-Story Building Tips Over in Shanghai

With all due respect to Kingwa I disagree that having to replace the entire transformer in the event of a fuse failure is the "best way". Especially when that replacement trafo is half way around the world.
