Cardboard tubes (does that count as 2 subjects on the Schiit Sine Wave?) and textiles are being used to create partitions for Ukraine refugees. https://www.dezeen.com/2022/04/08/shigeru-ban-paper-partition-system-ukraine-refugee-shelter/ The Paper Partition System (PPS) is quickly and easily...

The Gjallarhorn and the Rekkr are perfect additions to the Schiit stable of speaker amps. The Gjallarhorn is listed as consuming 80 watts maximum. What is the power consumption while idling, if that is the correct word (powered, but not in use)? I also would vote for a silver case as an...

Here is another female acoustic bass performer in a great bluegrass band, Big Richard:

This is a question to owners of the Dan Clark Audio Aeon Closed X headphones: I bought a pair six months ago and I really enjoy the sound of them, but I feel as if they could benefit from equalization. Can the Loki Mini+ or the Lokius improve the sound? I have owned Sennheiser HD580s for 27...

Peter Green, the original guitarist for Fleetwood Mac has died. Listen to "Oh Well" and "Green Manalishi" for his excellent songwriting and guitar licks. He also wrote "Black Magic Woman," which became a hit for Santana.

I once was stuck in Phoenix-area rush hour traffic when it was 115 degrees. (Of course, the 1973 Datsun had no air conditioning.) We found that ASU's Gammage Theater was open, so we went inside and collapsed on 2 chairs. We drove north at dusk, and surprisingly 95 degrees felt comfortable...

Lately, I’m kind of hung-up on this 20 year old album. Thanks for turning me on to this album! It is excellent jazz, and quite unique: acoustic piano and drums with acoustic bass that is somehow synthesized. I never heard that band before. Now to seek their CDs and enjoy them...
