You're welcome to send me two more of your Melz and I'm happy to take such a photo of them for you…

I can take photos, and I can also look upon four of them in a Freya +.

I am reminded of a line by e.e. cummings:

A pretty girl who naked is
is worth a million statues.

Iron holders for both. My power panel is mounted in a Formica-clad plywood box. That's one step up from cardboard, isn't it?

I am but a simple woodworker, @bcowen is the resident expert on cardboard.

Cowen's "NC BBQ" technique of soldering. Note the firm grip and precise angle, as the well tinned tip is applied to the specific location, allowing it to reach proper temperature before applying solder. A precision instrument, wielded by a masterful hand......

In @bcowen’s defense, he eventually figured out which end of the soldering iron to hold. Even young children learn not to place their hands on a hot stove, albeit much faster than Bill.

This is one of my favorite tube amp shots that I took over a decade ago.

Absolutely love this

You guys are using soldering stations with iron holders right? If I was like Cowen and was producing whiskey from corn near by I might shut down more often.

OP has "house panthers" that tip the tubes in his HP amps askew overnight....

Do you get a signal if just one side of the splitter is connected to an amp while leaving the other side disconnected? Both amps needing to be on certainly puzzles me lol.

Not due to splitting RCA per se. I run dual HP amps split from same RCA out on BF2, running either or both makes no difference to either amp. Curious to hear explanation if found.

Silly rabbit. One can leave it off like the Furutech does.

The Furutech+ offering adds the screw. It's $75 more though.

Nice photo. Love the fluorescence!

After years of yanking hot tubes out of their sockets all the nerve endings in my fingers are fused together. Now, I only go "ouch" when I smell it.

Be nice. I'm working on a batch of Belvedere for you right now. Don't make me drink it all.

Scotch made in North Carolina or Speyside, same thing right? Who needs barley when you have acorns.

In other news, I finally found a Georga peach stand, just for you:

Got you some apple butter too.

Yikes! Are you sure you are still in the states? @ArmchairPhilosopher can spell better and English is his second language.

I often wonder that. Thankfully we live in the peoples republic of metro atl.
