I remember enjoying that quite a bit.

Damn, that is a good deal.

I think Tyll usually goes, might drop him a line.

Duh, it's wireless.

Pfft, I love it. Outstanding work my friend, simply outstanding.

It's happened to me before with Etys with a foam tip, I was able to self-extract the offending foam tip with tweezers. This was one of the reasons that I strongly considered a move to customs and that's something I hope to revisit in '09 if cash permits.

And here I would have thought it would have been an honor to be in the same company as the likes of you and jp#'s. Most of us are just common gear whores, you guys are like the high-priced call girl's of the GAS world.

Not if he wants to sell it.

That setup is commonly referred to as "meet conditions" grounding.

I love how you completely omit the purchase of the full Headroom Desktop setup.

Yes, you can just tie the shield to one of the '-' binding posts at the speaker with the amp in it.

I'd at least try a different location first to rule out local interference.

At 5pm I cleared 12" of snow off the driveway. During the course of the 45min. that it took to clear the driveway I'd say we got at least another half inch. I haven't had the heart to look at it again since I came inside, whatever is out there it'll be there tomorrow morning when I have to deal with it.

Well the good news is that it appears to be back up and running. It seems to have been a combination of a known issue with the optional SS rectifiers and the potential of a bad rectifier tube.

1. Watched it snow. 2. Fought with Comcast, who for reasons unknown have seen fit to turn off all of my HD service outside of basic broadcast channels. 3. Watched it snow some more. 4. Fought with the SimpleSE which blew a fuse late last night at the tail end of a listening session. It's unclear what the problem might be.

I'm with naaman on this one, especially since Vincent said that unshielded XLRs had been a problem in the past as well. Someone correct me if I'm wrong buy I think line level signals are much more prone to noise and that's why you hardly ever see shielded speaker cable. Vincent, if you need some shielded RCA's I've got a spare pair kicking around I could send your way.

Grrr, after around 10" yesterday I awoke to this... Forecast for today is 12 to 18".

There may be trim pieces already in the works.

Only if applied in a non-ventilated space. Honestly, I'm not sure when I'll get a chance to paint it unless I decide to temporarily heat one side of the garage so the paint can cure. I'm not really upset with the way it looks right now, I just wished I'd taken a bit more care during fabrication so that I could have just left it as it sits with no concerns.
