Maybe. But I'm confident the facts of the matter will emerge in this thread and we will find that the amp is competent and neither Dylan nor Hypex are frauds that we need to send to jail. So maybe a little drama isn't so bad for him.
I love the visible cables. We had a shelving unit like that too but converted it to use in the hall for keys, wallets, dog accessories, and recycling collection. And it looks like you've got a master power switch accessible on the power strip. That's how we do it too.
Love the books you use to prop up the turntable feet. Classy. "The Portrait of Mr. W.H." by Wilde and some other Penquin Classic on the left (can't quite make out the title). Forget looking at audio power amps, have a look at someone's books!
C'mon, John, clearly a health hazard. There's no seat on that toilet!
Hol'up, I forgot to plug in my toilet...C'mon, John, clearly a health hazard. There's no seat on that toilet!
Well, either that, or primary capacitance is a bit tight. You commonly see that in PC power supplies these days, possibly in an attempt to cut down on idle losses (which capacitor leakage current is contributing to - 0.01 CV may not seem that much but e.g. at 470 µF and 400 V already amounts to 0.75 W, and that's just a ~550W PSU).
So do I, as it happens, but some want audio "jewellery" (I think I've just found a word with a different US spelling which I didn't know about before).
The Man With the Twisted Lip, a Doyle Sherlock Holmes story. I bought a mountain of the Penguin 60s when they were new in the shops. I realize now that I haven't finished reading them all. The Death of Ivan Ilyich is one I want to get to. Apparently it was the inspiration for the film Ikiru which got a lovely remake last year with Bill Nighy called Living.
That's great, but better still would be to get your supplier to *also* make a nicer case for those who care about such things. Or is that not an option?
I wonder who makes the cases for Apollon's pricier offerings?
Yes, I use a heavy duty Tripp-Lite power strip with circuit protection. I keep the cords tidy and off the ground so I can sweep under the rack easily since I have a Golden Retriever that produces fluffs daily.
You have to distinguish which DIY look,cause taking a middle ground DIY case (not top of the top,not bottom too) looks like this:
Yes, I suppose you're right. I tend to think of DIY qua DIY as being motivated by cost savings but of course crafts can be practiced at home at the highest level.
That all looks way too HiFi for my preferences. I might be willing to pay extra for cases and decorations if the results were more like this
