They're available next to the driver's license counter at Wal Mart. 🤣
Probably still makes no difference to the cops, though, huh? 😑

I recall a guy that placed heat sinks on the top of his Freya. I don't remember how many degrees it lessened but I wondered if socket savers worked just as well. I'm satisfied with those.
I just allow for proper spacing on shelves, even if just mini shelves and run my Freya as received.😉

When I moved to Philly in 2001, I used to buy my wine from a really good wine store in Camden across the river. Eventually the state store near me got good enough that I just walked there rather than deal with the drive. But I much prefer the ease of buying wine in NJ or CA.

I am carefully checking support length before cutting eight pieces of copper. The fittings only allow the pipe to go in so far so I needed to make adjustments. I can screw the adapters in and out of the flanges to make sure all is perfectly level but I do try to be precise with this portion of my record rack. I can add patina and a clear finish within 24 hours.

Mmmm Rieslings.😉

Also from Alsace
The card game Euchre originated in Alsace, France as the game Juckerspiel. German-speaking immigrants brought the game to North America in the early 19th century.
I’m extremely partial to top quality Rieslings, whether dry (from Alsace - Try the Trimbach line sometime for more affordable, the best - in my experience are anything from Domaine Zind Humbrecht (Riesling after all being a GERMAN grape - grin). Top Germans also include non fully dry, such as top notch, single vineyard Mosel Saar Ruwer Kabinett through Spaetlesen (Auslesen, Beerenauslesen, TrockenbeerenAuslesen, and Eisweins are extremely excellent and epically ageworthy - I’ve still got bottles from the legendary 1976 vintage and they are wonders!) - but from Auslesen on upwards they are very sweet. Think German Sauternes…

Favorite producer at less than stratospheric prices: Reichsgraf von Kesselstatt… we spent a week on honeymoon at their resort/vineyards on the Moselle in 1992.

Most Americans don’t know that Alsace used to be Germany before a few “back and forths”, hence all the German names of places, towns, rivers, wines, etc. Beautiful country, epic food and wines

Btw, as always, Herbie's Tenderfeet a great choice as well. Really need the Valhalla 3 to stack on top here!

Outside of the Lokius, we basically have the same setup. a Pietus Maximus and a Bifrost (mine is 2/64 and idk which yours is); I ordered a four set of those space blocks you have and will be using it to add more airflow between the Bifrost 2/64 and my Pietus Maximus.

CheapAudioMan reporting on Forkbeard (and Wotan & Kara) -


Interesting review. He’s the first to say Wotan sounds more forward in the mids.

One thing I love about Tyr is that they are the opposite of forward sounding. They can go really deep depending on the recording.

Sorry but wrong country of origin. Paladins pertain to Charlemagne.

“In the 8th century, the paladins were the most important warriors in Charlemagne's court. They were also known as the Twelve Peers.
The word "paladin" comes from the Latin word palatine, which means "servant" or "government official".
The most famous story of the paladins is The Song of Roland, which tells of Roland's heroic death at the Battle of Roncevaux Pass.” 🤪
What Level are you Tom?
