I have done what I can to provide some items for the NC Schiit meet, time to work on making an amp prettier than the one I gave Cowen. I get to choose which is the prettiest.

I vote for the pear holder that's in the center of the picture, between the egg holders

Cardboard tubes (does that count as 2 subjects on the Schiit Sine Wave?) and textiles are being used to create partitions for Ukraine refugees.

The Paper Partition System (PPS) is quickly and easily constructed using cardboard tubes as structure and textiles as partitions. One unit takes approximately five minutes to build.
Since the war began, the system has been used in shelters in Lviv in western Ukraine, in Poland and France.

Syn? Perhaps it is the audio equivalent of "Stone Soup". I dunno...I could not really think of any thing and that just came to me. I have not read the story in decades.

ORT

Crazy idea #3 that will make people want to murder Jason.

His not telling us what it is is getting people halfway there...

…you mean Duck Soup, right?

K, here's my guess on Syn.

An all digital phono preamp.

Just added to the Schiit pile. A basic Loki Mini+ as a flexible tone control. Looking forward to tweaking a couple of pots for low volume listening.

Maybe "Loudness" should come back. Who can resist a button marked "Loudness?"

Confused? Look up the Fletcher-Munson curve.

Edit: no, not Syn.

Knowing that this is a deadly syn, I feel that many of us can relate to Brad.

The great thing about a properly implemented "loudness" control is it is most pronounced at lower volumes and tapers off as the volume increases.

Yep, Syn will be next week. It may not be formally announced until the Schiitrless meet on the 30th to give us some time to build a few. But it will certainly be there.

In the meantime, a preview of Urd.

Indeed, who could resist Loudness?

One of the best remakes ever! Also, more faithful to the original short story, Who Goes There by Campbell.

What do you have against James Arness...?

 

[A Jedi]

I just caved to the "industry" and got a fancy AVR.

I had a Marantz AVR but decided to decave and sold it.

Is it just me, or is the CD upside down in the Urd? (Well, maybe right-side up for the Urd, but upside down compared to a 'typical' CD player.)
