I use a lot of Canare 4s11 myself. When doubled 14 ohm becomes 11 ohm as best I can remember.

They become 11 AWG.

A couple days ago 33+ pages back the Schiit Sine Wave was on "post old car pictures".

Thought some photos from The Bluebonnet Festival up in Burnet TX today might be fun of the Saturday Antique (mostly) Car Show for those of us with antique age and memory!

Mustang first of course....

We're in Texas tonight, so why not some ZZ?

I got to see them play this in La Grange at the Fayette County Fair in 2015. Wasn’t near loud enough, but first and only time it’s happened!

They become 11 AWG.

Uh huh, I spent many years working with audio engineers and the like so I do know about such things. It was only about 17 years though. An easy way to remember it is called the rule of three. It is late and we just dined on smoked salmon and a magnum of Prosecco so I said ohm instead of awg, my bad. I also typed as I watched A Gentleman I Moscow, a favorite book and a wonderful series. We just finished Ripley on Netflix and it was amazing as well. I am a fan of Patricia Highsmith the author of the Ripley series. Film noir at its best.

My Valiant Slant Six was pretty cool in its day...

This is especially for Valiant66 since it's near and dear:

Man these cars really were 99.9999% perfect! A few more pics and back to the ABC's of Schiit Sine Wave undulation... Analog-Bourbon-Cats .......I mean Cathode current...

Well. I started on the Fender Deluxe Reverb amp today and, guess what?
Blown power transformer.
Those darn geetar players putting in a 10 amp mains fuse where a...
Nevermind.

Clearly it needed to be an 11amp fuse

Winding down Saturday night with a bit of quiet..

Julie London two-fer, UK cd import, Calendar Girl (in mono} along with Your Number Please in stereo.
Sound? Oh So Sweet.
Spinning in the Urd of course.

Not sure if anyone has watched the Charismatic Voice on YouTube, but it's very interesting to get a trained opera singers take on both the music and the vocal performance. This one is Under Pressure by Queen and Bowie:

How her character name got by the censors of that era leads to a galore of options galore.

You're not often wrong, sir. But when you are, you really are.



Tomorrow Never Dies is the most underrated Bond movie of them all. It has the best Bond actor, the most kick-ass Bond girl of them all, one of the very few non-ugly BMWs as the Bond car, one of the better Q scenes of the franchise, great practical effects, and one of the last actually good and well-recorded Bond soundtracks and Sheryl Crow absolutely nailing the mood of the movie.
It's so good, in fact, that I can almost ignore Teri Hatcher and her abysmal acting that's even more hammy in this movie than it usually is.

But with all that debate about the best Bond actor or Bond girl, one thing I'm sure there can't be any debate over:
Christoph Waltz is the best Bond villain, period.

Michelle Yeoh is amazing and beautiful and always has been.

Jonathan Pryce is really good in that film, too.

10 amp? Chumps. Real men replace fuses with a solid copper bar.

In bluegrass jargon, that’s known as a penny…

 

[JamminVMI]

[LIKE^5] achieves the same, no?

Not quite the same oomph, though…
