I think one way to “improve” the sound is to take a break. I have not listened to my bedroom speaker rig in more than 6 months. Just turned on and wow! I have forgotten how good it sounds.

Just watched The Great Gabsy both the 1974 version and 2013 version. I prefer the 1974 version but some things about the 2013 is better though

The best looking people in the world is your wives. May her gorgeous beautiful give you daily joy.

That said, nerding out on components can be fun though. Like maybe being fascinated with a DAC chip or op amp. It probably doesn’t make that much of difference but it’s fun to appreciate the design. I enjoy appreciating my hospital power chord on my bedroom amp. It doesn’t improve the sound but...

In my opinion there’s not much you can do but I have room treated my space and the speakers sound better. I have changed the tube values like instead of using a 12ax7 tube in my bedroom amp, I use 12at7 tubes to lower the gain slightly for a slightly smoother sound. Personally I feel that if...

McDonald’s Double Filet-O-Fish sandwich This the famous fish sandwich but what’s different is that it has 2 fried fish patties instead of one. Just had it now for lunch. Not sure if this particular version will be permanent on the menu Here’s a close up shot with the tarter sauce.

Starbucks Olive Oil coffee? Yes. The Oleato. This version came in a latte form and made with extra virgin olive oil. It’s actually pretty good. It’s not oily but has a nice smoothness to it.

Double Big Mac Just had the Double Big Mac for lunch. The standard Big Mac has 2 meat patties so the Double Big Mac has 4 patties as you can see in the photo Here’s the box. Some Big Mac observations: The Big Mac debuted in the 1960s. But by today’s American standard, it’s actually not a...

Detroit Style Pizza Detroit Style Pizza is trendy right now in a lot of places. It’s a fat pizza basically with a focaccia like pillow texture . This was a good version because it was crispy and even the pepperoni had a nice crispy well done char to it. Notice the burnt cheese at the edges...

Arancini Italian deep fried rice balls I really like this a lot. This version I had at an Italian restaurant was filled with rice, cheese and Italian sausage. It’s sort of like an elegant version of junk food

Fried shrimp tacos I really like this dish. It’s deep fried shrimp in a taco shell. I think it originally comes from San Diego because several years ago I had fish tacos in San Diego and it was similar. It’s very different from tacos you see in Los Angeles by the way

Queso Fundido with Chorizo This is a really nice Mexican dish. It’s melted cheese with chorizo sausage. You dip tortillas chips or whatever into it. Puffy Tostada This is a very rare but excellent Tex Mex style dish. It’s deep fried tortilla and it puffs up with air from the heat of the...

^Since you mentioned Japanese food here’s some good Japanese junk food I had recently Japanese pancake. Very difficult to find in America but occasionally you see it. Although it’s considered a breakfast thing, I prefer to eat it for lunch Japanese Coca Cola. On extremely rare occasions you...

Also keep in mind in many factories in the old days, a lot of women did the soldering and wiring and did a lot of hands on stuff with electronics and I don’t think they were formally trained. So if those ladies can do it, you can too.

I started out by soldering guitar pedal kits. Basically building an entire guitar pedal from a purchased kit. (Which means all the parts are included but you have to assemble it from scratch with a soldering iron with online instructions) Of course, I made mistakes and destroyed 2 pedals...
