I don't think it's limiting the amp, I just don't like the sound, kind of like the British sound.
It also could be when the amp is plugged into the wall, it on a 20a dedicated line by itself.
When plugged into the Puritan, it is on a 20a dedicated line with everything.

Re: The final piece is on it way.
I got the 156 then added the groundmaster city, totally silent background and improved Soundstage.
Purchased the face plate replacement so I can stand it on it's face.
I tried plugging my Norma integrated into it, but the 156 made it sound too polite, so back to the wall she went.
I read in many places where the 156 outperformed or matched much more expensive units.

Re: Post a picture... any picture
The Black Sheep kits were made by Revell and were 1/32… The original show was The Flying Misfits, which was a movie of the week and served as the pilot episode of Baa Baa Black Sheep. It was revamped to Black Sheep Squardon for season two. Marine Col. Gregory “Pappy” Boyington served as technical advisor. He also was awarded the CMoH for his heroics after spending time in a Japanese POW camp.Jetmaker737 wrote: »The Corsair with those gull wings is one of the sexiest airplanes ever.

Lol you mean Black Sheep Squadron? Baa-aaa-aaat

Re: Post a picture... any picture
^^^^Love those Hellcats and Corsairs
On display at the National Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola FL.
F6F-3 Hellcat
The Navy’s front-line fighter during the final two years of World War II, the F6F produced more aces, including leading Navy ace Commander David McCampbell, than any other Allied aircraft. At peak production the airplane’s manufacturer delivered one Hellcat an hour around-the-clock. The aircraft on display is a combat veteran of the Solomon Islands campaign having flown with Fighting Squadron (VF) 38, including missions escorting a plane carrying Vice Admiral William F. “Bull” Halsey.
FG-1D Corsair
Originally produced by Vought, the Corsair was in production by multiple manufacturers longer than any piston-engine fighter and flew combat missions in both World War II and Korea. Its most recognizable design feature was an inverted gull wing that was necessary to keep the blades of its 13-ft. propeller from striking the ground. During air combat missions in World War II, more than one Marine pilot downed a Japanese plane by chopping off its tail with this large propeller.
Note: The best place to see the Blue Angels on their practice days all year at Sherman Field just behind the museum. A very special place.

Nobody is jumping to conclusions, only that there were prior issues. On 11 July 2016, Dali collided with the berth at the container terminal in the Port of Antwerp, Belgium, causing significant damage to the vessel's stern and transom. The berth was also damaged and closed for cargo handling operations.
My point is that it is highly likely that none of those previous incidents or “infractions” has any relation to the incident at hand. So while it is a good flash in the pan for people to lock in on and for news reporters to draw attention, is all quite inconsequential for the event that happened today.
Something that hasn’t been discussed much is the fact there were Maryland pilots on board during the allision. Those guys know the waterway like the back of their hands, if there was anything that could have been done to prevent this navigationally, they would have been all over it.
I’ve lost steering and propulsion in precarious positions, and it is no fun and hard to plan how to react in all situations. I’ll be interested in what the investigation finds in regards to immediate actions by bridge personnel upon loss of power. IE how quickly was the decision made to drop the anchors once the allision with the bridge was imminent.

Re: Home Cookin': The Audiodharma Cable Cooker
I don't know how I missed this thread, excellent write up as usual. What I find most interesting is the solid evidence that cable burn in does occur.

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore
It appears that the ship may have actually saved a bunch of lives. Their distress calls allowed the work crews that were on the bridge time to stop traffic from crossing. I have not yet heard of any people being lost in a vehicle, though there are 6 members of the work crew unaccounted for. I also know there are some vehicles in the water, but the reports are only six people missing at this time.
