Torpedo

Sorry, Steve. Cheers to Simon for being a good friend.

The putty ring around the driver is your addition too or just the thin plastic film for dust protection?

The video obviously is wrong. While nowadays we have the luck of having presents brought by Santa and The Three Wise Men (Reyes Magos) on Christmas Eve and Epiphany Eve, when I was a kid only Los Reyes Magos were bringing them. Not sure if that was a Catholic thing or a wealth one. However we were aware of Santa's existence and we already knew he spent part of his holidays on our sunny and warm beaches, but not in summer, but around the Easter time. Tapas, jamón de bellota pata negra, Ribera de Duero and all those gourmandises are to blame of his round belly. I saw him several times when I lived in the Mediterranean Coast

^ I'd pay to see pictures of Dinny riding that thing

This too. It's available at Grooveshark

Very true, and applies to many other aspects of life.

Happy Birthday!!!

He's Alonso. Just sayin' He's a great driver, and seems to be improving over the years, but Vettel is in the same kind of cycle that enjoyed Schumacher at Ferrari. I don't see Ferrari building a car which can outdo or at least be in par to the RB. Not this season, probably not the next one. It feels as a waste of talent. Spa is a classic race, but it never was among my favorites. I don't know why because it's a wonderful circuit and usually has plenty of action. I'll have to learn to see it with different eyes. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Steve.

Just a matter of perseverance and time

What a beauty! Congrats Vicky, I wish you can make over 10,000 miles on that bike and still be happy with it

Funnily enough that same album was my choice after listening to Neko's

I knew someone would love it.

I thought I wouldn't live to see the day when Steve admitted that performance matters more than size.

We not even know if they could ride a bike, designing them doesn't imply being able to ride. Maybe they could ride, but not over soft sand.

Happy Belated Birthday! I wish you had a great one

Happy Birthday!!!!!

lol, thanks Birgir, I'm sorry I can't remember all the knowledge this thread provides. My fault for not searching it, though to be honest, I thought it was some bogus parameter, one of those which too many makers love to claim. Is it really possible to measure the ss voltage directly at the headphone?

5% distortion at 800V ss... What's ss? other way to name rms, or perhaps saddle to saddle as in peak to peak? Either way, considering the SNR is 86dB it doesn't seem that marvelous. It looks classy though.

Interesting. The gypsy curse didn't fell on all your Single Power stuff

Sometimes they help when the wire is acting as an antenna. The coiling making the problem worse is kind of revealing, maybe extending it completely and moving around the room could show if the reception gets worse, perhaps a clever system placement can get rid of it.
