It looked as if some were bothered by fan noise. Added USB is a bonus. Probably includes some other improvements and tweaks but too early to know.

Hey, have you ever seen a test bench?

This is the same thing.

Yes, but a composer who some have said is the greatest Symphonist of the 20th Cenury (according to Robert Simpson), Carl August Nielsen, wrote:

"Music is life, and, like it, inextinguishable."

Note he said music IS life - he did not say it just portrayed Life.

Sorry, you use the wrong words all together... You may write your posts in an philosophy forum, not this one....
Anyway, thanks for your valuable creativity and contribution to this thread.

The drawbacks of a public forum. I can post what I want as long as it is not against forum rules and you can post pics of mistreated equipment as much as we both want.

Post anything you like? I hate bad language, but...

I once used a perfectly good and legitimate acronym and it wouldn't put it on the forum, came up asterixes or something on the screen.

I am going to try it again. The acronym was T.I.T. - and had nothing to do with body parts.

Seems diyaudio.com is no longer censoring it.

Cheers, Joe R.

Coris your contribution here has been large. Please ignore the 'mistreated equipment' comment by jean-paul. Its a test-bed I'd suggest, and YOUR equipment. (Close-up of some my work would not look pretty).

Joe Rasmussen's acronym escapes me unfortunately. Guess I need to try harder.

Hi jvd and Joe

Thanks for your words/support.
Of course those kind of "comments" are only to be ignored. I think one do not have to spent more time end energy to respond such out of topic stupid posts.
DIY is first about improvisations, DO IT something, and have results. When is about prototyping no one care about how it looks inside the box, but how it works. In this case the way it works is just because it looks like it looks...
Anyway this forum is meant first for the connoisseurs. Some who do not have a minimum idea about, appreciate how it looks the things... This is a known phenomenon.
