Wouldn't it be a lot easier to accept not to be ok ? Makes acknowledging limitations minor bumps in the road.
That's what I thought/preached. 😉

You mean like being depressive? Nah.
It's true, we have (in many cases immediate) access to artists directly. I've been a huge Kosmische Musik fan since the mid-70's, bands like Amon Duul II, Can, Ash Ra Tempel, etc., and these days I am buying remastered stuff directly from Manny Gottsching of Ash Ra himself. I love that he is getting a bigger share of the $, and DLing hi-res FLAC files has proven to be in many cases the best sounding transfer medium I have heard.
A few of my favorite labels are:
Recommended Records, run by Chris Cutler of Henry Cow fame (ReR Megacorp),
Seventh Records, mainly French Magma and related Zeuhl music (Seventhrecords)
Mellatronen from Sweden (Mellotronen.com)
Moonjune (MoonJune Records, NYC) Canterbury, jazz, rock
Cuneiform (CUNEIFORM RECORDS)
With these labels, the vast majority of the money goes directly to the artist.
Cheers!

Cool, didn't know Magma was still popular, I want MEKANIK DESTRUKTIW KOMMANDOH on CD as my original LP is showing its age a bit....
Some great stuff... For me first heard on John Peel's shows. Cosmic Jokers were good too...Cool, didn't know Magma was still popular, I want MEKANIK DESTRUKTIW KOMMANDOH on CD as my original LP is showing its age a bit....
This morning I went shopping at a wholesale center (Metro Delft), while I was stuffing the junk back into the cart at the cash register I heard the sound of my bank card drop.
Nothing on the floor or in the cart, so I ended up opening every volume-buy box with top holes.
Turned out the card had slid inbetween the conveyor rollers, a supervisor had to be called to retrieve it.
By the time the payment card was inserted in the right slot machine, I tried to lift 2 boxes of oranges.
I told the folks who helped to pick up 66lb of juice balls from all over the shop floor, plus the ones waiting in line, that I also juggle bananas and can be booked at nut dot con.
I'm an alcoholic, there's no limit to what I can drink while simultaneously walk a wire and solve cubic roots with point 2 decimal accuracy.
Limitation is that my head disconnects from all 4 external dimensions.
Accept or except who you are (freak).
Just saying.

Because my home has several fridges, several cellars (all-side epoxy coated, temperature/moisture controlled, diy moi), and an exhausted juicer ?

I bought four 33lb boxes, special offer : 2 for the price of 1.
Regular wholesale price per pound is half of the rate at the super, fresher product, plus higher quality.
I'm a scrooge and wholesale hamster (as with every new/nos diy component which keeps, sufficient to start up a small enterprise

It certainly makes for a good excuse not to change.

9 of 10 in the loony bin are there because they pretend to be someone else, and have been for quite some time.

In a power amplifier why isn't the output zobel included in an output inclusive feedback network? Is there any reason that a feedback network can't encompass the entire circuit?
A question to get us back to talking about audio!

It's a capacitor and resistor. And it's preferable that it be as far down the oscillation path as possible. If the speaker cable was the problem it would be best at the end of it, otherwise you'd still have minor amounts occurring.
The feedback actually has problems with the situation that makes it happen because it's trying to over-correct, and essentially causing the oscillation that can hurt the components. Having the zobel in it would just mean that it would be a weaker effect.
