Eric you do know that BigStewMan is not a real person right? Many years ago several of us developed his persona and opened a forum account for him based on the life and career of a federal inmate named Sylvester Penrod. Penrod was doing time for maliciously smashing guitars and petty theft! A quirky guy who would go through the chow line and pocket those little packs of ketchup when no one was looking. I think he is now on the lam traveling up and down the west coast doing odd jobs and blogging on several forums.
So if you need help with your construction projects you will have better luck getting Rich and Carl to stop by.
Hope this helps😁

I met Roger at the 2018 Pilgrimage. Asked him about his screen name. He seemed surprised I didn't know what a twistedcrankcammer was😐 Nice guy gone too soon.

I've been looking for something along those lines but see nothing. Where can I resize the pic? I have a Samsung Galaxy S21.
Sorry but I'm on a tablet (Microsoft Surface) with windows 10. Files and pics in Explorer. Haven't had a cell phone since I retired 9 years ago so I'm no help there.

Ok, I dumped Tapatalk because I thought the forum was straightened out. Why can't I post a simple pic from my phone? It's just a pic of a GZ34 and it says that it exceeds 2 MB? What am I missing?
Thanks!
Go to edit feature and resize pic!

Any suggestions on how to promote this further? Price is on par with comparable sales.
Welcome to the forum!
Looks like the link has expired so maybe give some particulars.

I bought an SVS SB1000 Pro subwoofer.
I'm using the subwoofer with my La Scalas and driving them from a Yamaha R-N803 receiver. Currently I crossover to the subwoofer at 100Hz.
Previously I'd been using a Klipch Synergy subwoofer that I got at Best Buy years ago. The sound from that was quite muddy and unimpressive. The SVS is in a whole different league: the sound is tight and crisp.
I'm planning to build a Bill Fitzmaurice-designed THTLP but supply chain problems will delay that until the new year. But I'm so pleased with the SVS that the THTLP will have to be really fantastic to replace the SVS SB1000 Pro.
100HZ seems a bit high but what do I know (my first sub)? I have the SVS PC-2000 Pro crossed at 50HZ.

I think the 4367 JBL has mid range to die for. Made me start googling them to see if any used ones are for sale. A gent in NJ has two pair and one pair (with 5 hours use) is for sale for $9999. Retail price is now $16,500 according to his add.
Pony express from NJ to NC coast?

Yes well I've gone and done it now. Entered the realm of high end cables. Since I bought the Transcendent Sound "Masterpiece" I decided to replace the generic computer power cords. Went to Amazon and didn't even flinch ordering two WAudio 10 awg cords for $45.99 each😑

Looks like those bottles are filled with coke.😀 There are items posted in this thread at times, where a link to who makes it and its specs would be cool. So this is a 300B pre and a headphone amp,yes? I see that it can be ordered as a kit, hand built?
Transcendent Sound "The Masterpiece" 300B OTL. Purchased from a seller on usaudiomart. 2015 build with a few upgrades. Tubes are 2 Psvane 12au7s and 2 Shuguang Treasure Black Bottle 300B-Z. THD less than 0.1%, gain 12db, SN 100 dBA.
Will be paired with an ATI 1502 (150 wpc) in a second system. Listened to 3 CDs (John Lee Hooker, Sonny Rollins, Over The Rhine) yesterday and was PLEASED!

To Farmers Supply in the AM. Fungus in LF's yard and the guy that has been treating says it's bad. Wonder if he realizes it happened on his watch! So 20 pounds of Heritage G and then wait and see........
Bought a preamp yesterday on impulse. A Transcendent Sound "The Masterpiece". Need more equipment like I need another hole in my head but someones got to do it......right. It was shipped today. Will replace the Quicksilver Audio unit that was a bit long in the teeth. It will be in my second system at my other house so I'll rarely hear it😐

The wife had this pop up on her facebook thing and laughed. It was when I was a senior, we walked out to protest not being able to have long hair, they gave in.
It's funny to see this after all these years expecially since my hair is now shorter than it's ever been.
Always knew dtel was a rebel rouser!

Love the sound of vinyl?

I'm just the opposite. Three turntables, three R2Rs, many hundred LPs and CDs and yes streaming too. The Sugar Cube takes care of the pops and tics with no loss of musical content. Love the involvement with my media and watching those big reels spin.
