What about a new rule?
The person who would receive the box, fills another 10 boxes with random components from his audio closet, and send to 10 random members on the forum. Each one who would receive a box will do the same. The one who breaks the chain will have big misfortune, his amplifiers will smoke, his loudpeakers will rattle. In two weeks you get a stroke of good luck. Your amplifiers will sound more transparent, your loudspeakers will sound more realistic.

I think Cal just won.Here's mine.
Good sir, I wish that box. Send it to me or I will disable your account.
There once was a man from P-A,
Who was whit'ling his "junque box" away,
When he had this bright flash,
"Make 'em write for my stash!"
-But few cared to pen an S-A!
Actually, there's some pretty useful stuff in that box...
How 'bout iambic pentameter?
Looking o'er my recent Mouser order,
- My packing list and invoice don't agree!
My phono stage lies still-born on the bench.
Normally a keen component hoarder,
But lo, there's not a blessed cap to see...
I think I'll call and raise a righteous stench!

There isn't an emote that fits my belly laugh response to this!
Iambic pentameter lmao!
I never knew the true literary meaning, half understanding - but the phrase always makes me laugh, thanks to its use in British sitcom

Well the winner is:
Everyone who entered more than ten words!
Just PM me a shipping address and if there are any particular parts you want, type and value. Also note if you lean to preamp or power amp.
Derfy,
You're included, I can send you a few bits you don't realize you want but I am sure you will love them.
Cal,
Same for you.

Thank you Ed. I fear the room I used to have for extra goodies became occupied about 10 years ago, so while I am grateful for the offer, I feel what you are doing is more in line with what I should be doing. Besides, the last time you sent me something, it kind if spiralled out of control. I am now the proud owner of a hexacopter, the Yuneec Typhoon.

I hope it has good batteries in it. You can drop off those A7s in my backyard anytime! Separate flights for each one is fine.

Derfy,
Your package is on the way. You should have it before Friday. Please be sure to review it here accurately and let me know how the bits do for you. Others seem to be unable to provide their addresses! Cal particularly wimped out. Be sure to mention if there are things in the package that would be W.A.F. or G.F.A.F. But don't let a G.F. see them prematurely!
Now if anyone else wants free parts and other interesting stuff, all they need to do is write a bit about what they need and why the deserve it.

Ed you should watch this it was always our model of how things should end, Ongka's Big Moka - YouTube
When the Moka finally did occur, it comprised a huge gift of 600 pigs, $10,000 Australian dollars, 12 cassowaries, eight cows, a motorbike and a pick-up truck
Not sure if Ed can find 12 cassowaries!
