Congratulations.

Almost went Friday... But it was rush hour and no parking...

To quote Spock, It is curious how often you humans manage to obtain that which you do not want."

Yeah, the problem is that GE made tubes on an OEM basis for others and sometimes it's not immediately evident. So you think you found a real diamond and it turns out it's cubic zirconia. Post purchase dissonance is one thing, but this is post purchase seppuku.

But, I think the cabinets are sealed, so the same quantity of gas is trapped inside, now it's just warmer. Density is the same, but the internal pressure will be higher.

I saw another thread while searching for "heated enclosure" information that said it's impossible to make a 100% sealed cabinet. The air leaks out either through the driver or through the relatively porous MDF or some other way. It was also mentioned that Vilchur said putting a pinhole in a sealed speaker makes it work better.

One DIYer even tried to increase the pressure in the cabinet using a bicycle pump. Couldn't do it.

This is the reason drug-sniffing dogs work.

For those lucky souls living in Syn, I have a hunch this could be an interesting listening experience (well, with a lossless rendering). Was I right?

The only valid number of drivers is either 42 or 47.
Obviously.

42 is the answer to all questions anyway.

Money..... Pink Floyd

The intro must be really cool through Syn.

That's the age after which it all goes downhill.

Curious.... So he came from Kansas and went down to Georgia. That makes sense now

I don’t know what you’re talking about.

I'm gonna say something highly controversial:
I very much enjoyed the 2005 Hitchhiker, and I think it's an absolute shame that it wasn't quite successful enough to green-light the adaptation of the other books.

Uncultured swine! The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy Original Series is unquestionably superior!
