Well stated, and I could not agree more. I did not vote for Mr. Obama yesterday, because I have some irreconcilable differences of opinion on what this country should be and where it should be headed. Nonetheless, he is now my president, and as a public servant and a patriot I intend to support him. I voted for John McCain with a heavy heart, as I have never agreed with him on many aspects of his policy either. I do not feel he was the best republican candidate, but he was the choice we were given. I am extremely eager to see how the Republican party handles this well-deserved loss. Should they reinvent themselves into the party they have been, i.e. one of governmental nonintervention socially and fiscally and one that emphasizes personal responsibility, I will be delighted. I sincerely hope I am able to vote for a candidate I believe in four years from now. One of my other favorite places, Belarus, recently had an election as well. The ruling party controls the state media, and didn't allow publicity for the opposition. He won with 97% of the votes in an election the UN decried as a farce. We do not live in that country. We live in one of peaceful regime changes and, for the most part, thoughtful politics. I am pleased that America has definitively chosen a leader, and I sincerely hope it addresses some of the myriad problems this nation has.

Shit yeah! Oh, I'd love to hear that thing. Sooper hawt.

Certainly a phenomenal looking setup, Voltron. Gonna have to send him a new pic with the KX-R?

PS Audio P600 power plant. Same as Steve said above. Local deal was too good to pass up. Shipping this 90 pound beast would be horrendous, though...

Gonna be tough to switch over to Portland, I suspect...

Then I've no doubt you'll enjoy it. I certainly did.

Noise - 2008 An excellent film about tinnitus and murder.

Driver looks pretty nonplussed about that heatsink.

Moscode 300. Happy birthday Maggies

Fascinating. I can honestly say I never expected them to create sound waves through temperature modulation. Talk about room dependent speakers.

i actually started with an alton brown angle, and it remains one of my favorite knives. The angle is very natural for me. Never used the Ken Onion, but it certainly looks tremendous.

I was a Henckels man until I tried my first Shun. No looking back. I just love me some elliptical handle.

Keep your head down, Naaman. Happy to have you back in God's country

Oh, think of the cooling fans!

I loved that film. I saw it in an abandoned warehouse in Ankara, Turkey. It seemed fitting.

I don't know what the admin is on about. It cured my AIDS.

I particularly enjoyed the "I got in a gangbang with a pack of hawt wolves" comment. /purchased

I already mentioned where the term came from. I can't prove that I didn't make it up, though, so you're free to assert otherwise if you feel it necessary.

Gallo should eventually release the giant reference towers. I don't know how they'll compare to the Ref. 3.1s, but if you like the 3.1 they're surely worth a listen if/when they come out.

Since it's not my term, I'll decline your offer. I feel I've made a reasonable effort to be self effacing and admit to my mistake here. As regards the B1 circuit, this description written by Nelson implies to me that it does match impedance. I've no doubt he'll answer. I've enjoyed speaking with him before, though I don't currently have a DIYAudio account.

And thanks for the snappy custom title

That seems like an invitation to participate to me. I was clearly in error interjecting a technical explanation out of my depth, but it was an unrelated interjection. I don't feel it really degraded a thread about the KX-R.

out of pure ignorance. The idea of a hybrid preamp sparked my memory. I didn't entertain the idea that were a multitude of successful methods of implementing a hybrid preamp. After closer inspection, I was clearly mistaken.
