A very geeky week indeed

Ahh the return of the cold season, I cannot ride my bike anymore because it is stored for the winter. That means I needed to find something to entertain me a little. I had bought this DIY preamplifier kit a while back to keep me occupied during the winter. I completed the project in 2 days. Although I am glad that it went so well and that it ( Read more... )

I am shameless when it comes to Metallica but I knew your «lack of taste» on the band and that's why you weren't invited. :P
*chuckles*
I'm doing prety well even if it's the time of year I find the most depressing.
I'm very sorry to hear about your dad btw... I hope the surgery works perfectly. Take care, you and your family.

Yeah, I heard about your plans to go professional on tube amplifiers for guitar and bass... I wish you luck on that, I'll be curious to at least see the result of your work until I'll be able to hear it.
Suddenly, it makes me think that I've never seen any OTL (output transformer less) guitar amp. That could be an interesting project for me next winter.. ;)
May the warm glow of tube amplification guide your path, my friend. :P

I have not been to a Metallica concert in ages. Now that I think on it, not any concert in ages.

I may have to consult with you on the Hi-FI equipment. As I get closer to remodeling my entertainment room upstairs and adding on some 300 Sq ft' of space. I am looking to integrate a very high quality sound system; even the room will be sound damped once done.

As for the motorcycle, California weather allows for nearly year round riding, however my current project has me an eight hour drive from home, and bringing too much equipment to ever carry on my bike. But there are the weekends.

Cheers my friend...

Winter is coming, try to appreciate your home a bit more (from the inside) this year.. :)
I mught be going on the west coast around new years 2010 if I find a decent flight price. I won't be able to make it to FC but I need my dose of sun in the winter and I'm not the type to enjoy the beach. I'll let you know if I get close to Modesto.
Oh, and I'll be glad to share my opinion on hi-fi equipment if one day you need it.
