    Your amplifier is in an undisclosed location (bunker) in or near Haverhill, MA.
    It is being seen to by top men. Top men.

    I watched this yesterday! Great movie. One of my favorites.
    And no, it was not the first time I’ve seen it, just first since 2012 and I didn’t remember any of it. So basically a new-to-me movie!

    You gonna test it in outer space ? I believe fire needs air.

    If I was you, I'd get a real long extension cord, like all the way to Jesse's house. Then have the Fire dept. on standby, the bomb squad, and snipers on the roof to take it out should the test go south quickly.

    lol, loving all the comments about how unstable this thing is.

    Honestly it didn't sound bad at all to my ears. I just didn't much care for the disgusting noxious fumes it exuded during operation.

    Correct me if I'm wrong -- but isn't all of that stuff always standing by at the perimeter of Jesse's bunker compound anyway?
