Genau! Morgen ist mein Geburtstag! UND Mimir - wird schon… Die beiden zusammen, for the win! Yes… got my extension. In my system (as I suspected) it made pretty near no discernible difference… the “noise” is so damned low that if it were ever audible in listening real-time, my wife would have...

Yeah, was MISERABLE on the other side of the chairs also… 2007 the big layoffs in Tech. I had about 60 folks on my team. Our Product lines were profitable, but the bean counters mandated 90% internal operating margins. Nothing personal, they said, but you need to cut staff down to those levels...

.9”???? That ain’t freedom units..115/128ths of an inch is frickin’ freedom units, man! C’mon

Good luck. Ageism IS a huge thing and especially in tech. One is either massively “overqualified”, or not believed when one says one no longer wants a “career progression plan”. My 2nd startup had our funding pulled when I was 59. Took me 9 months to land my next gig, and even that was having...

I was an OS engineer on TOPS10/20 in LCG so we ALL despised VAXen; until I had to learn to like and support and develop on them after they “killed” the best computer line in the world, sniff… (by then they finally build BIG VAXen: 8700’s and 8800’s and the big-boy clusters 8974 and the uber...

I was thinking of getting a biwire set of these Cablesjust for yucks - they’re (currently) super cheap, and would look nicer… be fun to race something again. Who know’s? 🤷‍♂️ If they don’t beat my ugly beasts, they can get used up in the office rig. If you want, we could try em (my set) when...

2 AWG for the end-game win. Bi-wired. 35 years on. Arc welder?

Yep, he’s the pilot (the ‘stache gives it away)… he has time off now until into June (I don’t recall how far into the month between their leave policy, FMLA, their contract, etc.). We are now clarifying exactly when we can go out for a visit. We have to reserve our house/dog sitter for Bismarck...

The OG version: Nothing sux like a VAX {edit: from ads in 1979-81, Digital)

Amen! Blessings, indeed. And DEFINE “cute” <insert choice here, ad infinitum> Just got the first “decent” shot… Father and son (yeah, my son sorta has my hairline but worse, so he’s decided to rock it)) Planning trips now.

Haha, my grandaughter (aged 14 months) is more the risk right now due to her mobility and curiousity, though, with both in Arizona and me in NH, I’ve some time to strategize… Fortunately, I have my guard dog; I’ll just have to play PF Animals on continuous loop (which would “lock” him in position!)

Will do. I’m certainly that it’s going to be a ‘learning’ exercise, since I’ve NEVER EQ’d any system over the last 40+ years. But digital PEQ offers such promise at a such-reduced potential sonic degradation that I gotta try it!. The Stage is a nice speaker; one of my friends (since HS days)...

Mimir ordered, looking forward to playing with it!

This^ Which is precisely why I’m hot to try PEQ to further flatten the bass from my Duetta Sigs…. I have “decided” that if/when they die, I’m likely making the move to dynamics if for no other reason than they are easier to place (should be a doddle in my room) and far, far more attractive...

Always wet clean/vacuum them. Always. And put them in a premium sleeve.
