Hi Daniel, my brief intervention from the UK was a pleasant surprise having readily clicked a few links this evening. I’ll try to “onboard” nearer the start of the next session, time differences (& Chores) permitting. Cheers for now, Paul.

Bonfire night here so was out burning and exploding stuff. My mad sister is visiting next week so no chance I’ll leave her unattended in my house for any significant time. I will return soon…

I was only thinking about Bonfire Night earlier and wondering if it was still a big thing over there.
I guess so then.

You have been missed sir😉

Bonfire night is definitely still big, more so with professionally produced displays but still common in local gardens. We spend our evening keeping the cats calm as the whooshes & explosions scare the crap out of them :frowning:

It’s been crazy here for the last 3 days or so, just constant fireworks going off and dogs barking :angry:

We have a hotel about a mile away (The Pig). they have firework displays a few times a month throughout the year :confounded:

Ooh nice :scream_cat:

This year Rosh Hashanah seamlessly blended into Diwali and then on to Nov 5th. Only torrential rain seems to have created gaps.

Hi Everyone,

Ryan, aka IP, is taking over hosting duties today as I am not sure I’ll make it back. I’m going to an event. If I am back in time I will join in, and even if not, I’ll phone in briefly and say hello.

I went to the capitol audio fest and have lots to talk about which will be next week.

Ryan, Steve wants to chat about Animals and I thought you could share your Animals story. :smiley:

Pink Floyd Animals, 20A duplex receptacles, track suggestions I can’t remember (please post here), HQP and the consumer side of ECC ram, the ultimate in ~$16,000 digital playback chains, the importance (or not so important) first reflections, ear speakers, and a handful of other things… See you next week!

The other thing we touched briefly on was this thing https://shunyata.com/products/power-distributors/venom-line-power-distributors/venom-defender/

“provides surge protection and noise reduction to power amplifiers without the negative effects of traditional chassis based power solutions”

Yep…I have one of those too😉
Missed the meeting as no phone/ internet and waste of time trying to do it on my mobile phone as that’s got crap service in the house.
Next week maybe!
