From 5:30 AM to 9PM. Minus 2 breaks and dinner, call it 12 hours. Running demag tracks- it makes sound. That's good. Shower. I need a shower.

One is in! Only 2 solid hours removing one, cutting trimming fitting drilling tapping twisting crimping soldering swearing no just testing to see if anyone reading. My back needs a break. A beer would be nice. When we're done.

Woke up this morning around 5AM couldn't go back to sleep so started working on the crossover. Incredible how much time it takes to put this thing together with all the tweaks and short leads and tight space. Anyway, just finished soldering it all...

Sure. PM coming. But I don’t really "do" crossovers. Barely understand the subject. All I do is swap out parts - caps, resistors, inductors - for higher quality parts of the same value. Done a fair amount of this over the years and with speakers, ... 
Issue with dynamic range database
Good example of how you can be technically thorough and fair and yet totally miss the fact vinyl does in fact wind up being more dynamic- even when cut from a digital file. He does a great job trying to explain it away. But the most relevant part ... 
Synergistic Research Fuses vs cheaper ceramic fuses
Very hard to teach fundamental reasoning skills so this will probably be a waste of time but someone somewhere might get something out of it.So as you can see my post wasn't really even intended for you, and I hardly needed you to prove me right. ... 
Biggest audio hoaxes
Winner winner chicken dinner!

Sorry, wasn't even thinking of that angle. Was more like that is how expensive just the caps are. Even with no mortgage I can barely afford Duelund bypass caps! Not that Duelunds would fit in there even if I could afford them! Will have to "get by...

stringreen-The truth is that Porsches only become the joy they are at speed.   Here in Arizona where everyone is doing 80/90 on the highway, mine starts to make me smile.....the car sticks better, the engine is quieter/smoother, the body becomes m...

Rennsport Reunion is the pinnacle of Porsche, at least in the USA. Donahue, Redman, and Bell were telling tales at the Mission when Porsche was the featured marque at Laguna Seca one year. Hurley Haywood's plane barely got him there in time to get...

If you can just do two mortgage payments a month, plus however much you can scrape together at the end of a year of clipping coupons eating beans never going anywhere and never buying anything, then in just 6 or 7 years when the mortgage is paid o... 
Synergistic Research Galileo SX Power cord. (Opinions on sound quality appreciated).
I had Atmosphere Level III Euphoria and when using the pigtail to my ground there was only a very small improvement. A little less grain and grunge, not much. What I mean, I hear more improvement in the first 5 minutes playing a record.  This was ... 
Us: hobbyists vs perfectionists vs aural epicureans vs rampant consumers vs bad Buddhists?
On a more prosaic level, I just love music and am fascinated with all the crazy things that can be done to get me closer to "you are there".    The first time I crawled under the house to run a line it seemed kind of weird or at least unlikely to ... 
What's the best plating material for interconnects plugs ?
Another good one, Dansk. 
Synergistic Research Fuses vs cheaper ceramic fuses
My question here isn't really whether SR fuses make a difference, it's are they better than cheaper ones from Amazon? Are SR REALLY better or different. I haven't found much at all on that.  So I certainly have done some homework and found mos...
