Braver man than I, my friend... I'm going to feel bad for the people around me the day I give up caffeine.

Maybe I should go join over on CS That and SD are two forums that I really have no experience with. I lurk very occasionally on ECA, but don't really have the time to check it often.

But of course...this one will probably glow a little more than the Zen did, triodes with heated cathodes like 2A3's are more inefficient than the small pentodes were. Also because there are simply more tubes in this one, b/c of the preamp stage.

Should only be a few weeks then. Which is good, because by that time I can afford to buy tubes for the damn thing

morning...afternoon...whatever.

slow night tonight.

We don't have those here...at least, none that I've seen. Just hung out with some guys and gals that I haven't talked to in a while. Good to catch up on things.

midnight food run. You left-coasters have Chipotle, we have Cookout. Only place around here where you can get an actual grilled burger to 4AM.

TOP.

OK, then I won't But I've had London Calling on rotation in the van for a few weeks now

i'd just feel better if i know the status of my amp... Guess I'm going to be on the phone tomorrow about that...

"Hey, Mr. UPS man, bring a box for me I'm not sleeping, and there ain't no place I'm going to; Take me for a trip upon your magic brown machine..." - to the tune of "Mr. Tambourine Man" Got a few things today. First up, the Klipsch Forte II floorstanding towers. Specs are here: http://klipsch.com/product/product.aspx?cid=117&s=specs This is how to make the UPS man cry... Full-frontal shot, courtesy of the Ebay auction (haven't personally removed the covers yet, don't want to break anything just yet ) That's the 15" rear-firing passive radiator...instead of ports, these bass-reflex cabinets use PR's. I guess Paul Klipsch doesn't mind terminal cups. Good enough for me.

And enjoy it while you can. Some get smarter as they get older; some stay about the same, some get worse.

np: flogging molly - may the living be dead (in our wake)

Yup...

Ahh, just took a break from the classic rock thread on crapaudio I could spend some time on that one, heh...

It's a goodie.

Steve knows exactly what I mean by that

on a hot summer night, would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?

Oh yes.

I think it's time for teh Klipsches (Klipsch's? Klipschi?) to go back in their boxes...no real use for them for another two weeks.

How do they sound ported?

off to do some errands.

Which is why the new RL-i 8" looks like it'll be the perfect driver. Even sealed, I bet I could get all the output I want from it.
