Stafan,
I told you it could be tricky. You might be one of the few who gets it correct on the first try.
Token whites in a family of mostly Vietnamese don't often stand out, hence the test.
Cheers on your investigation skills. You seem to win every time I have these little quizzes.
Leave some for others would you?
EDITED

Dunno Cal ......... to me - you look totally Vietnamese

Maybe we can't see that on pic, but we are blessed to know from jolly exchange through years - only difference between you and your smarter, better and more pretty half is - difference in beer amount per year

The hunchback and the dwarf

At night in the cemetery, an ugly dwarf jumps in front of the hunchback and asks:
  • What's on your back?
  • A hump.
  • Do you need it?
  • No.
  • Then I'll take it off.
The hunchback suddenly straightens up, happily seeing that he is no longer crippled. He hurries home and meets the lame man. He tells him what happened. The lame man immediately rushes to the cemetery, looking for the miracle-working dwarf. The dwarf jumps there too.
  • What's on your back, you lame?
  • Nothing...
  • Then take it, here's a hump.

Yesterday evening I was restless, had baught a new saw and had a lot of waste mdf laying around. Made diffusers for the upper corners of the tqwt pipes. Can maybe work both as LF ”pipe-straighterers” and most of all HF diffusers for rear wall reflections. Noone remembers a coward :)

in principle, Mighty Moi Personally - I'm interested only in amps of lower power and simpler construction ....... well, not necessary simpler but necessary simple signal path

but, technically- as food for brain, every amp is interesting to take a look at, or proper stare

just one comment - I did ggle and saw pictures - just one simple comment to show my lazy disgust - with heatsink of that size, 125W amp, and twice that!! - only if it is in D Class

if it is D Class - I don't care to see inside

if it is any other Class - it's ooking disgrace and insult of potential buyer intelligence

note: even if product is possibly that (disgrace and ... ) it still can be interesting to see schm of; example - Glorious MF A1, real Jewel and product of Tim de P. originality, but produced as worst scam - having longevity of little bigger box of matches

so , dig schm and post somewhere, you're welcome to :clown:
