Are there eating/drinking establishments in the US where it's still OK to smoke? In Canada we've been "smoke free" for so long I can't remember the last time I saw a no smoking sign.
.

I wish everywhere was smoke free sooner... it was one reason I have not been back to Europe. Best ways to ruin a good time is having to breathe in second hand smoke of any kind.

Wall E helping with B-Roll audio mix....

At least Wall E is not sitting on the keyboard, or playing with the wires.

are those LS50 or LSX?

Thanks for post. I still have an HP calculator from my college calculus days. Still works.

You got to use a calculator in calculus!? Your professors clearly liked you more than mine liked me.

Fiat-Chrysler owns Chrysler.

Fiat-Chrysler no longer exists. It merged with PSA Group (parent company of Peugeot and other brands) to form Stellantis.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellantis​

The principal activity of Stellantis is the design, development, manufacture and sale of automobiles bearing its 15 brands of Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Citroën, Dodge, DS, Fiat, Fiat Professional, Jeep, Lancia, Maserati, Opel, Peugeot, Ram and Vauxhall, and Mopar auto parts. Stellantis has 300,000 employees, a presence in more than 130 countries with manufacturing facilities in 30 countries.​

BBQ talk is surely not occasional...

Maybe we should rotate weeks....

An example

Week 1 BBQ
Week 2 Cats, Dogs & other pets.
Week 3 Automobiles
Week 4 Assorted Alcohols
Week 5 Non bbq related food
Week 6 Roon, Raspberry Pi, etc
Week 7 Music and Audio Gear
Week 8 Cats, Dogs & other pets
Week 9 Automobiles
Week 10 Assorted Alcohols
and so forth....



Schiit talk is of course enjoyable all day eh'ry day

There is a natural rotation, as long as Jason has no issue with a topic, all should be fine. There is the ignore option as always.

LS50W - was planning on LS50+Ragnarok, but found a crazy good price on these.....

Thanks I rarely google things so my info may not always be current. The gist of what I said was Japan, Italy, and Germany are major players and they lost the war. Ownership does certainly change hands.

lots of things to consider:

can't speak for other manufacturers, but Jason indicated that their analog EQ are designed with headroom to reduce the possibility of clipping with some or all controls maxxed out. for Digital EQ, the designers will need to handle more bits internally (e.g. 20 or 24 bit processing to handle 16-bit signals, then decimation to 16-bits at the output) to prevent clipping for digital waveforms / peaks at or near full-scale.

Unlike Digital EQ, Analog also works with analog sources (e.g. phono, reel-to-reel, analog-out-only instruments) without an additional Analog-to-digital-conversion step.

or put the analog eq between preamp and power amp so that all sources (selectable via the preamp's multiple inputs) can be EQ'd.

Digital EQ can be very cheap (possibly free) if you are using only a digital source (computer, digital music player, etc.).

subtle EQ often works better than a maxxed out "death grin"

That's very helpful. Thanks!

I think I might give it a try. I've been reading that even if you clip with analog EQ, it sort of takes the edge off as opposed to hitting a wall like digital EQ would do.

The Crosstrek corners well for a sub $30K car.

Kind of heresy, but even the automatic version does quite well on twisty roads. One of my main longer repeat drives in the last year goes through some of the twistier roads in Sonoma County, CA, it's a lot of fun. In contrast, my wife's Outback makes me car sick.

Balanced vs Single-Ended (Bal / SE)
Power Switches

if ploting something y = sin (x) currently, consider plotting y = sin (x) + 0.3 * sin (pi()*x) to add some noise to the smooth curve

Only because I'm (still) forty pages behind and just catching up on that set of posts! Good call though, I'll add it
