The ICEpower 2000AS2 can deliver 2000 W for 400 ms and 1200 W for 60 seconds. Not bad I think.
So about a month ago, I had the distinct displeasure of having my trusty 2009 5 speed Corolla XRS totalled by an inattentive driver.
Had I known how it would unfold, I would have never stopped, and just gone home and repaired it myself, as the damage wasn’t that bad.
After some searching last week, I was able to locate the same model, which was the last year (2022) which you could get a manual transmission. Should be getting it in a few days, as, ironically, the car had paint damage to the rear bumper, and is being repaired. I won’t welcome the additional financial burden, but it could be worse, nobody was injured…

You know, I got an Android Tv Development Board , That's cool. 😎
But it also needs a lot of electronic components to work perfectly, such as Wi-Fi receiver, high-definition audio output, serial port plug-in and so on. I want to build it into a KTV hardware, the music video is output through HDMI, the audio needs to be connected to an amplifier, and the sound output of the microphone needs to be received.
This motherboard also has to be connected to a solid-state hard drive to store those song MV videos.

Those are similar to the smart TV motherboards sold here, you can upgrade an old TV to Smart TV, Android and all.
USB connectors are there, for external connection, and you can drive the panel directly or through HDMI.
About $75 here in India.
You might try to make a recorder type TV set top box out of your board.

I had to stop buying stuff about 6 weeks ago after spending $10k on cameras and lenses. Just about have enough for the council rates now, which come due in a couple of weeks. Also had to put my car in for service before registration which will eat at least another grand or so.
An old Mac Mini for $3 at a yard sale. I5 with 8GB. Got the latest OS it will take (High Sierra) installed, by Internet Archive downloaded .iso. Thought it might play nice with my M-Audio Firewire NRV-10 mixer - even had the goofy 800 to 400 cable on hand, entirely by chance.
Nope. Read on line immediately about someone selling their NRV-10, after upgrading to High Sierra, after which they stated it no longer worked. Went on the App Store, downloaded Garage Band (apparently HS does not come with) and it said "Sorry, Garage Band cannot run on OS 10.13".
Too old for the new stuff, too new for the old stuff. No man's land - as far as recording anything with it. Back to the relatively gigantic PC / W10; thought I could free up some bench space, with its nice form factor.

Yup, I found one at the local op shop and same story, no longer supported
Today I got more of the aluminium for a Water E-Kart that I am designing. I also have a pair of 250w 8" hub motors, controller and battery coming in any day. And I forgot to mention the hundred or so stainless steel fasteners and bearings for the project
I've read for audio, you can put a flavor of Unix on it, FreeBSD I think.
A vent system for my workshop.
An Eggtimer altimeter and GPS for my rockets.
I have other hobbies than loudspeakers. Shocking, I know.

i86 series Linux will work, I think for i5.
Ask around, do a search.
Ubuntu and Manjaro Linux have their fans...Or simply put a Win 64 bit version, will fly.

"New research finds that older adults who bike can reverse muscle decline and keep their immune systems strong"
Maybe it's a good investment; better than sitting in a chair, listening. Do be careful of those cars, some of those muscle declined drivers can be quite disrespectful.
You can buy a bicycle for that kind of money here, 10 speed or mountain bike!
Must be special / unusual tires.
Sample from an on line seller...no ties, off a random net search.

A used AudioEngine W3 set of audio-over-wifi devices.
Simple operation (and works with Ubuntu Linux... plug and play !) for experimenting with subwoofer placement.
