Re: You’re doing it wrong…
Now -- Australia is (still) an RHD country, but, irrespective of that... this is... not a good idea.
In full disclosure, I freaking hate roundabouts (rotaries, as they're known in New England), but there is recent, aggressive proliferation in larger towns around here, mostly to slow down traffic.

The roundabout (traffic circle to some of us Yanks) is a great idea for certain intersections. It speeds us along when traffic is light (pro tip: you don't need to stop if no one's coming from your driver's side) and it eliminates those annoying red lights where we are held for traffic that never comes. Europe, particularly the UK, has embraced them decades, and we're seeing more and more traffic circles in the States.

Yet way too many will just jump in feet first, give all their info without a thought.

Re: Post a picture.....any picture...part deux...
Well it was a serious question. From what I can barely make out they look similar to some my uncle had from an old Organ. Some I hear bring good money.

I wonder if those are organ tube amps?

Re: New Adcom 555ms with SDA-2B
Only the original Adcom 555 was a Nelson Pass design IIRC. The 2 and later versions used a Darlington configuration, which strayed away from Nelson's design.

Re: Can you do an Ohm test with tweeter plugged in?

Soldered, maybe?
If you cannot (or don't know how to) desolder, you can snip the lead going to the tweeter ("downstream" of the crossover), measure the resistance, and then reconnect afterwards. That may be easiest to do by adding a small piece of wire and connecting both ends. Ideally the splices would be soldered, but it's possible to twist the leads together and use "butt connectors"*. Otherwise, you'll just have to not worry about it, or take it to someone who knows what they're doing.

Had to be hot melt glue. Unless theres a clearish looking solder idk about. It just had it on the - terminal. Would unplugging the + lead be enough to test it?
Post a photo of that please.
That's an accidental drop of hot glue, but I doubt that is what is holding the faston to the tab. The faston or the tab has a tiny clip that locks them together. You have to pop the tiny clip free while gently pulling the faston off the tab.

compared to Lou Reed’s original, and I like Lou Reed’s version.
Lou Reed’s is great in that raw, gritty way, but Margo Timmins’ vocals just float. It’s like hearing the same story told through a completely different lens
