Minty fresh. And liquid. If it's warm I'm pissing down my leg. 
Pass Labs Thank You
How Did you damage a preamp installing a sub? Stacking?? 
Plastic ring over tweeter opinion
This is the same outfit that sells $24 Iso-nad cork blocks that may be procured at your local HVAC dealer for $4-5. Of course, Myrtleshat 'specially' tunes them. Some believe their recordings have not quite achieved near-mythical status as proclai...

Strange but awesome merlin combo
Whatever blows your skirt up. Or down, in your case! I plan to hybridize two spkr systems with an active xover, each spkr noted for their particular strength. It only happened because of woofer/tweeter failures. I need some soldering/wiring help t...
