    Goodbye Sweet Mt. Dew

    I'd like to throw in that I use to drink this drink called Irn-Bru every single day... maybe 2-3 litres per day. I gave it up cold turkey 4 months ago and didn't experience any headaches. I also didn't see any weight loss Good luck!

    I'm interested in vinyl!

    Or for an even cheaper option, the RPM1. I've read that it can sound very good with a couple of small tweaks.

    Troubles making iPod line out cable. Anyone here make them?

    Whip all the pins you don't need clean out. They should slide out with a pull with some pliers. And like Lock said, slightly bend them outwards to give yourself more room. Another benefit of ripping the other pins out is that if you really mess up, you can actually replace the pins with the...

    A note on the Little dot MKIII

    Thanks for the post. I have a little hum in my mkIII and I think i'll buy a ground line isolator. D'you know if the signal wire has to pass through the box, or just the ground? I'd like to make a cable that allows the signal to bypass the box to keep quality.
