“Ith thithhh your car?” Gotta love the guy/ persona, unadulterated craziness.yes I read some years ago that Mike Tyson was broke and parking cars or something.
Did you say stackable?! I say as I’m working on designs for stackable line-level DSP and processing amps, cheap stuff from Dayton audio, but would be fun. 3D printed with allll sorts of chamfers and radii, ha!I think it's just an unwritten audiophile rule that anything sounds better if it's in a fancy stackable enclosure and has a hefty price tag
My 2011 MacBook Pro did a solid 10 years, till the battery failed, and I failed keeping it dry. $160 a year for a premium laptop is not bad. Sure didn’t game (except Roller Coaster Tycoon!), and Protools (which I bought it for) got dicey. But I ran an old version of Sketchup for 3D printing til it died.If that's even true, I can think of several factors several factors that might be skewing the numbers:
- Macs are expensive. Any comparison should be against similarly priced PC models. Looking at entire brands, any difference between cheap models and high-end ones will be missed.
- Mac users typically replace their devices as soon as a new model is available. People who buy cheap laptops use them until they break.
- Getting an Apple device repaired is expensive. Many users will rather live with the flaw until they get a replacement. Just look at all the iPhones with cracked displays.
I have somewhere a pic of the amp “tent” I made for ICP’s appearance at my house gig at the time. Rack full of QSC 3602’s I think. 3’ of plastic-covered corrugated cardboard on both business ends. They survived. Pulling lighting AC as the diet root beer advances.. yea well. Pretty sure we got tipped out nicely by mgmtBring on the Faygo.

How does that make any sense when it might as well be more app data running on the Dell computer for all I know?In fact, my 2011 MBP runs Windows 10 in dual-boot better than two-year-old (better spec’d) Dell I’m issued for work does!
Guys! They’ve solved it! Electrical engineering has been SOLVED. From their FAQ: “Yes, fuses are directional. Electricity should flow from the left to the right when you view the fuse.”There have probably been others but this one is QUANTUM!!!!!!!!!
Purple Fuse

Our current 'diversity' ethos requires that an option should allow for right-to-left flow; based on user affiliations....Electricity should flow from the left to the right when you view the fuse.
''The best description of how Purple UEF fuses change the system came from my wife, just before Christmas 2021; “it’s not like an expensive new scarf, but more like tying that expensive new scarf perfectly''Guys! They’ve solved it! Electrical engineering has been SOLVED. From their FAQ: “Yes, fuses are directional. Electricity should flow from the left to the right when you view the fuse.”
Now how does that work for AC fuses?
A Gedankenexperiment: If one installs the fuse backwards and also installs one's one-way interconnect(s) backwards, is the net result silence?But it should be noted that I (the dufus) finally figured out what makes a "one way" audio cable one way...
Two wrongs don't make a right but then this is the wacky world of audiophilia where the laws of physics are suspended and, like in 'Stingray', anything can happen in the next half hour.A Gedankenexperiment: If one installs the fuse backwards and also installs one's one-way interconnect(s) backwards, is the net result silence?
