A long time employee said no it was because they weren’t paying their unemployment insurance. Ran into one of the owners told me the landlord... | |
| Coiling XLRs.... yes or no? OMG! Tablejockey nailed it! Freaking nailed it! Next two posters prove, waste of time asking here, GO AND LISTEN! Listen to it coiled, then uncoil and route the wire trying to keep it away from as much other stuff as you can, and listen again. A... | |
