The video shows the state of global pollution a good 10 years ago, now it is 2020 and unfortunately it is not getting any better.

I just had a look at the Crown XLS 1002, nice amp. Well manufactured. It will definitely not leak or attract magnetic field induction. Independent of any existing encapsulation or sealing of the transformer.

It depends on whether the transformer is encapsulated in the Crown Amp housing or completely sealed. If this is the case, there will be no magnetic induction.

My very first album ever ......Alan Parsons Project " Tales of mystery and imagination" Edgar Allan Poe 1976 MFS Lab

Just because we have spring in Germany, listen to the album " Springfever " by Joachim Kühn. It is from 1976 and was digitally reworked as a 24 bit version. Of course as Japan Pressing. Wonderful easy listening jazz.

In Germany we have now been living with the restrictions of our freedoms in public life for a good 3 weeks. The German people abide by the government's guidelines. There are no supply problems with the basic goods for the people. Everything that is important for life is available. Luxury goods do not count to it of course, these should be available anyway still enough in this rich country. Most people work from home as far as possible, my wife is a teacher and teaches her students online and via video on the school servers. My two children are also taught further. We are grateful to the people who have to work in the grocery stores / drugstores / gas stations / bakeries / etc. They receive special financial allowances from the government. That is fair. And anyway, Germany does not stand still but there is a special aura in us, the aura of respect and humility. We go inside ourselves, change our superficial view of the general things in life. It is spring, we had a long winter, people experience this spring differently than usual, they have a great respect for nature. Nature shows us how tiny the human being as such is. Road traffic has been reduced by more than 75%, the air smells better than it has not smelled for a long time, the industries reduce their environmental pollution by 60%, the rivers reflect the sunlight better than usual. Something is happening here at the moment that I have never felt in my home country in my almost 60 years of life. I wish every soul living on this world that it should not fall ill, but I also wish that mankind finally awakens and should live in the future in technological harmony with mother earth. We owe it to our children.

The twists and turns of life .........

@Tarheel....thanx for having a look into my thread ...the most important information are subsumed on Page 12 / 13 and 14 . Just if you want know it looks after having finished the works with the external crossovers .....and having an interest for the measurements that I did after having finished this project.

Yes I know ...Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel ...you all know, but the solo album of Paul Simon " The Rythm of the Saints " from 1990, WB Records Label, is certainly the most experimental one Paul has ever produced. It is truly extraordinary when Paul's delicate angel voice is combined with African rhythms. Musically, lyrics, compositions and acoustically a real highlight.

You probably also know Fleedwood Mac " Mirage " from 1982, besides Rumours the best album. The album " Tusk " never opened up to me musically. Just thought the theme song was really good.

For all those who can't sleep at night at the moment " Daylight again " Crosby Stills & Nash, Atlantic Records 1982

Earlier, I was running my friend Rod, his first " Best Of " album from 1974, original Mercury / Phonogram pressing. Listen to the english womanizer again and again with pleasure

Ahhh, now I understand better. Thank you very much for this very personal explanation. We should treat ourselves to something good ....

Two planets meet. Asks the one - you look like shit, what's wrong with you? Homo Sapiens ! No problem, there is something from ' Saveplanets-Medication ': Corona Forte !

@Tarheel if you wanna buy some ........ https://www.musicstack.com/records-cds/jan+akkerman

A good 220.000 Chinese live in Germany and around 1.6 million Chinese tourists visit Germany every year...... Now we're all in the same boat

Of course I have them too.

Another treasure from my vinyl collection is an album by Procol Harum . The special thing about it is that all band members have written their original signature on the record cover. It is an heirloom of my father-in-law

I just read that " Papa Groove " named Manu Dibango died at the age of 86 years at Covid 19. His song " Soul Makossa " was a world hit ....

Glad to hear from you, nice to hear that you are doing well, but what do you have to do with the Secret Service? Whose attitude is being criticized ?

Make sure you buy the right mask...left for Corona ..right for Corinna
