What nicer than being around such a great guys like Mr.Pass and Dr.Choky?
I wish, next time, Nelson joins me as well. Wouldn't that be great? I loved driving from Belgrade to ancient Bach where Choky lives, and I know Mr. Pass would enjoy the scenery as well. Here is the picture of ancient Choky from my visit to Bach. Uuuups, Choky from ancient Bach, I meant to say...😛 and few more of the great evening we had.

M2-ing the Papa's Koan
so - you already know that ZM is too lay-zee to have own
maybe because I don't have time ...... or maybe because is much funnier to have Ikebana style (any new) prototype singing , than having proper boxed and finished gadget
so - every piece of commercially made preamp - I tried lately , to connect to Papa's Koan , is killing da muzak ;
F4 is just too clean .
so - while trying to find where I put some BF862 matched ( which Juma gave me) , and to try last wakoo idea for "will it drive F4 ?" dilemma ....... I gave up of trying active stages which I already have
source is mainly Pioneer PD8500 (xformer I/V then just complementary Jfet buffer ) ;
I used Manu's gift - bloody expensive 4 deck TKD pot , put in small box , as volume control ( no - I don't have PSM LS functional , too )
then to F4 , feeding pair of my mighty LC1
fine , but somewhat low in volume , even in my 25 sqm workshop
so - I have these (look down ) ..... and - if concept is good so Papa can sell it to wakkootooblovingjapaneseZMs ......... and if I'm almost Choky from chokes and Iron - it is pretty logical to have nickel toroid repeater coil preamp/gain stage
fed from buffer stage - it's linear from under 20 to over 40k , without any load
so - CD - autoformers - F4 - LC1
no volume control , everything is exactly as needed
sound is ....... MAGIC
active stage - as soon I find those BF862 ..... for that idea I need mucho bloody xconductance ......

Don't tell me that was it, Arnie! I mean, you gotta be kidding! That what I had you come up here for? I don't believe it! I mean she, she shows up outta nowhere without a car, without a map. She ain't got nothing but a suitcase filled with men's clothing. How come? How come she act so funny like she was gonna stay here forever? And with no clothes?! No! I don't like it! It don't make no sense at all! No, no, no, no, no! It don't make no sense!

naah ....... every proper iron fetishist will more gladly give his panties , than crummiest and even sole (without stereo brother) piece of iron
nota bene - easily buy-able iron is out of equation - it have a price , so it's not priceless
