What happened? Where did everyone go?
I am having lunch then I will be finishing the Cowen if all goes well. No sign of @sqitis yet, maybe too much bourbon and prosecco last night?

WHAT THE ..... That amp is worthy of big bold CAPS. Do you need such big black shields. Maybe show more of the LS50? However it's a statement amp and I want it and I definitely want it called UntilThen.

We have some local folks who tend to shoot off fireworks and guns at the drop of a hat so I was up till after they were finished.

I have a question for those amp savvy amongst you. If given a chance between Questyle CMA Twelve and Auralic Taurus Mk2, which would you choose if price is not a consideration?

The caps will be underneath. Yes I do need such transformer covers. I could get by with one smaller one but I am a Gemini, I like two’s. I will show more of the tubes later. I have no plans of selling such amps unless I can get this one to sound amazing.

While the GE tubes are tempting, I have these on the way.

I do have help.
Finnegan has that "I am about to do something naughty" look on his face. Probably intimidated by that humongous transformer.

That's a possibility. I took it as more of "I am not amused by this disorganized pile of clutter I'm forced to sit amongst" kind of look. But knocking stuff off the table and watching it hit the floor will rectify that shortly... :grin::stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Hey @bcowen, Head-Fi did not reset the monthly score so only 14 points separates us and you could owe me 1 million bucks by the time today is over.

I already complained to the mods. No response yet, but I'm pretty sure it's at the very top of their to-do list. :grinning::grinning:

He is just mad the power tubes are in metal cases and lacking opposable thumbs, he cannot get to them.

You cut his thumbs off? That was mean.
