    There's a low-level cyberwar going on, with things like this being generated daily, by actual foreign cyber soldiers.  

    We should all have this in mind each and every time we're online.

  2. I'm getting rid of some of my stuff that I don't seem to be using. I've got a pair of 84 Heresy's for sale: raw birch cabs, E2 networks, K-22-Ks, K-53s, K-77 sq mags. Caps have been updated with JEMs and 5-way binding posts installed. Serial #s are non-sequential, but cabs were made one week apart. Cabinets and grills are looking a little tired, but the speakers sound oh so pleasant!

     Although a ”silver” horn would probably look pretty good in them. IMO. 

    I thought so, too. The aluminum SMAHL definitely does. I picked up a can of "chrome" colored rattlecan paint to test. It doesn't look like chrome, but it does look like the original color of the corner bumpers @OO1 mentioned above so I used it to paint the ones on mine...they're not going to be be touring anymore so paint is fine, looks great and is waaay cheaper than nickel plating. I ended up doing my horns flat black and am quite happy with that.

    Is just my imagination or is the “decorative” addition crooked?  It appears to these old eyes to be slightly rotated counterclockwise so as to not be plumb and parallel to the sides of the Khorn.

     

    My first thought was that it looks like something the toddler did.

    It's cool to hit fast speeds in a straight, but also meh for the most part. 

    As an ex motorcycle roadracer, I agree. It's fun being a bullet, but cornerspeed and late braking is what gets the heart rate up!

  6. Yeah, when I bought my small acerage years ago, I knew I needed some sort of small tractor. Bought a used Kubota BX-24 that has front-end loader and detachable backhoe. Best money I ever spent. I've dug drainage lines, installed septic lines, dug foundation for my shop building, dug tree stumps, bushhogged, installed french drains and hauled all manner of stuff with the loader. It's not terrible to work on and seems reliable as a rock. I've had it for 10 years and could get most of my investment back if I sold it. Crazy.

    If you want some real no-speed-limit fun, why not check out a track day at Nelson Ledges, the great track in northern Ohio?  It has lots of high-speed sweepers and has recently been repaved.  It also has a good long back straight and is possibly my favourite track.  I raced three 5-Hour endurance races there in the Seventies and two 24-Hours there in the Eighties, as well as some sprint races, and enjoyed every lap, even the ones in the rain and the dark.

    I've never done NL, but raced sprints and endurance in WERA, so I've had my share of no speed limit fun. Road Atlanta probably my favorite track to race on, followed by Barber.

  8. Here's my Dragon video. The 1st 6min or so are kinda dull until I decided to go play with our friend in the vette. He was gonna let me by, but it's more fun chasing.

    Actually just finished the following video which I highly recommend if setting up multiple subs.
     

     

    Thanks!  That's just what I need!  Finished up with the subs this week and picked up a Crown XLS 1502 to run them. Pretty happy with my 1st build.  image.thumb.png.c490fb9cbdea53104974449d22437e06.png

  10. Thanks, I was thinking of one of the Crowns. Ive never used miniDSP or REW so will have to learn about those. Almost finished with the cabinets; still have to paint and install drivers.

  11. I'm finally building a couple of THTs to go with my LS industrials. This is the system that I have in my shop. The LSIs are powered by a Yamaha A-S801 integrated amp that has a single sub-out and also unused "B" set of stereo outputs. I'm looking for an amp to power the THTs and the best way to set this up.  TIA.
