Atmosphere-When Life Gives You Lemons, Paint that chit Gold Yeah I pre-ordered about a month ago and I must have been one of the first 1000 cause I got a copy of strictly leakage and the autographed copy. WHOOO You'll have to check it out Godsmack. Possibly a new favorite? We'll see how well it grows on me Dude u said "Paint that chit Gold"............too freaking obveous. i was gonna pre-order and just never did. i am buying the CD right after work today. I have been an Atmosphere fan for almost 8 years now. I am hoping for a 4 day weekend on the 5th when he plays Pheonix. J I made it to his last show at First Ave. It was awesome. The DVD that comes with the deluxe edition of the CD is all from the last two shows at first ave. Hopefully I can make it so Soundset 08 at the Metrodome Don't bother, the acoustics at the Metrodome are terrible. As in perhaps the worst venue in the country. It's an outdoor thing. parking lot. It's only rap so acoustics aren't huge.
  3. St.Paul? I think I remember you saying by the cathedral right? Isn't that somewhat close to the Science Museum?
  4. I've been running the cover off for a while now. No more smells! I have not yet gotten the pots cleaned. I tried to just work them a bit and see if it got better, but with no luck. All the ton controls work fine and don't make any noise when adjusting. The volume pots are the only ones with trouble. I'll have to make a trip to radio shack sometime later this week/weekend and pick up supplies. I hooked up my PSONE last night to listen to CDs for the first time. Everything seems to be working great! I was wondering about the output tubes but referenced google and found my answer. They seem to glow blue inside the tube, not the filaments. Just blue lines on the inside of the tube. Kind of tripped me out at first, but from what i found, it said that something(I forgot what) glows blue internally. Hows the Altec coming Mike?
  5. THERE IS A PLANT HERE???? WTF?"!?! I'm googlin now MAGNEPAN 1645 Ninth Street, White Bear Lake, MN 55110 USA Lets GO! dubbs tee eff!!!! I never knew. I am so totaly down, like 4 flats. Took me a second to get the dubbs tee eff, but I got it now. 4 flat tires huh? where the hell is white bear lake anyways? Where are you located beats? Off to work for a few hours then to math class with a bunch of tards. I've managed 100% the last two test along with the other two electronic students in my class while everyone else wants to take the re-test. lol Re-Todd-ed

  9. Yep Bingo. Geek-speak for it is a "tank circuit" and when tuned to the desired harmonic, it accepts that frequency and rejects others. Back in the '20s and '30s a bunch of people came up with different circuits to do the same thing (Hartley/Colpitts/Armstrong oscillators, etc, etc) but they're all just variations on the same LC circuit theme with different numbers of caps or inductors.Cool stuff. I thought about getting into Ham but I can't afford another hobby Yes everything you just said about class C amps just came back to me. lol
  10. No chit? The outter corner of my right eye has been twitching for, I chit you not, two weeks...at least. chits Weak! Eye twitches can be triggered by a variety of different factors. Some of the conditions that cause eye twitches are environmental, some are physiological, and some are psychological in nature. Below is a list of some of the more common causes of eye twitch: * Fatigue or lack of sleep * Over consumption of caffeine * Physical or emotional stress * Anxiety or phobias * Brain damage or other neurological disorders * Associated with temper tantrums (especially in children) * Eye stress associated with extended viewing of the computer screen * Epilepsy Lol here ya guys go! Could be a combination of the first two. Mostly the second.
  11. lol. I looked into building a Zen amplifer a while back and I was looking at below 10% efficiency! What would be a guesstimate for tube amp efficiency? I never really though about it? The theoretical maximum for a true Class A1 amp (tube or solid state for that matter) is 25%...I haven't put a clamp meter on the monoblocks yet but I'd be surprised if they were above 20%. Push/pull amps are significantly more efficient. Something like a Dynaco ST70 actually runs pretty cool, while I wouldn't suggest touching the tubes in use the transformers don't get anywhere near as hot as in a SET, for example Actually, some of the most efficient amps in the world are Class C amps that may use tubes, the problem is that without specifically tuned circuits they're prone to all sorts of distortion and nasty harmonics, and such can be only used for very narrow bandwidth applications...mostly RF transmission. Lol class C. I have never worked with them, but I vaugely remember them. Dont they just use and inductor and capacitor and resonate at the FR? Jim aren't you an RF guy? HAM/CB?

  15. Just checked out the new Album....Great stuff!!!! Well worth waiting for. Any fans of good hip hop/rap should cehck it out! Paint that chit Gold sorry I am just excited
  16. The New Atmosphere album! One day early!
  17. NICE. I am a bit more than excited to see a project like this. 100 bucks over budget isn't too bad. When is the build going to start?
  18. Rush-Jabob's Ladder
  19. Someone please explain the whole TOP thing to me. I see it everyday and i can't figure it out!
  20. Hangovers suck
  21. Congrats! :bananaDance::bananaDance::bananaDance: :bananaDance::bananaDance::bananaDance: :bananaDance::bananaDance::bananaDance: it's just like a big party
  22. Retards buy ipods I buy Ipods me too. I don't think i could live without one at work. That is probably the only reason I have one.
  23. Where abouts? I live right next to the cathedral in downtown st paul. It's literaly outside my back door. Down Uni there are tons of markets. Shuang Hur is one of my favorites, still can get variety and prices are ok, and they don't treat the 6'2 white guy with bad attitude. Nice, my buddy live right in that area too. I think. How close is the science museum to that area? We ran into some crazy motherpucker or a crackhead .at burger king when I was there. He goes "Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas" like 10 times over as we are walking in....and it was pucking september or somewhere not really close to either.
  24. Drinking on a budget! A very tight one I might add. Beer 30 anyone!
  25. Same here. I had some Record organizer but it's filled and now the pile has started. I just need some kind of box!
