If anyone is interested, here the circuit I designed... I designed the first PCB and did the schematic afterwards...
I did, in 2001, because it was the ONLY manual-gear Accord in the state. Even in Maine it gets hot (I gave up seeing the dirt). And a lot of people seem to have trouble seeing a black car on black pavement in twilight.
In my recent shopping, it seems like half the cars are one or the other grey (some say silver which just means expensive grey). Next up a LOT of black (midnight pearl metallic is still black). Then a lot of near-white, off-white, pearl-white....
That's part of why I put dibs on a car that won't be built for months, it is a ruby-red (>$400 for "premium paint") but still with black interior.
Resale is always higher for a red car, not that it matters for those of us who drive them into the ground.
Yet another Aiyima A8 as it is a good amplifier that is easy to mod to being a very good amplifier.
Bunch of plastic screw clips to fix what is hopefully a loose inner fender on my wife's car and making a bloody racket, 20 sticks of 4GB DDR3 ECC RAM for only $30 for my old tech super PC project which calls into question the whole point of the project but just couldn't resist the deal, and a couple of whetstones when I saw my MIL had lent out my grass cutter and it looked none too sharp.
Bought the CD of the soundtrack to the film "Green Book". Not only is it a good film (on Netflix by the way) but great music too. Not cheap, but good value. A wonderful introduction to some of the work of Don Shirley.
Foam core board for some 3FE25 0.4x Karlsonators. Recently moved to Baku, Azerbaijan.
Drivers and a little D Class amp are easy to throw into a suitcase and making a foam core build satiates my DIYA cravings for a while. Be the second time I've built the 0.4x

Thanks.
I don't really have a reference system at the moment that merits such a nice preamp. I moved to a smaller space for a while. Had to get it off the market because it was such a great deal. Recently factory refresh/refurbished too.
I literally have bookshelf speakers on bookshelves. I'm so excited i just wanted to share it with the world.
Hope to bring it to a diy audio friend's house to see what it can really do.
Was told it needs 24 hours to warm up, and it's true. I can sense the potential but it didnt sound good the first 10 minutes after power on that i listened.
Did buy a ticket to our local cinema yesterday - A Man Called Otto (thumbs up for Hans & Trevino).
Today I bough a lot of food and a kitchen scale and a bit later I will invest in a small bunch of unobtainium ICs from Unicorn-electronics.

Browsing some local ads I found this beautiful 1957 console hi-fi!
It is mono of course. It has two EL84 tubes in push-pull. Line preamp is ECC83, as is the phase splitter. Phono preamp is two stages of ECC83. Two 10" and three 5" speakers. The condition from the outside is promising, I haven't checked the inside yet. I paid the equivalent of 160 dollars, total, freight included (local)! The records were included!
