Interesting history around there: Henry Ford wanted to make it the 'Detroit of the south', and use the hydro-electric power from the dams to power his manufacturing plants. TVA wouldn't sell him the power...I think he actually wanted to purchase one of the dams...so he backed out. Well, the town of Muscle Shoals had already started building municipal infrastructure in anticipation of the factories/workers, but of course none of it materialized, so now you can see sidewalks and fire hydrants on the edges of cotton fields, where they had once thought neighborhoods would be built.
Wheeler Dam and Wilson Dam are only about 15 miles apart. That's got to be the two closest dams anywhere."This may not matter to you, but it does to me for various reasons, many of them illogical or irrational, but the vinyl hobby is not really logical or rational..." - member on Vinyl Engine

Just about anywhere in Appalachia...including [cough] NC. Have you ever watched the show 'Moonshiners' on Discovery? They have to use subtitles for those guys.

Good thing I live in SC then, huh? LOL. Naw man, you can pretty much crack on any part of the country (especially the Appalachia) for some things that are all stereo-typed. We all know that does not represent the vast majority of people in those areas.
With all that is going on in the world, I just though I would add a little bit of levity.

Rock Hill, that's right! When I visited my daughter in Charlotte, I had to drive over to Rock Hill for decent tequila

I have heard that about Ford, also heard Johnny Cash supposably went into the cave to end his life had some life changing experience and decided not to end things.
Not sure if any of that is true cept he was from the area. -
I remember taking boats back in the cave.
Now it's all fenced off due to some species of bats.
Found memories for sure!!!! -

I love that show and I don't need subtitles I understand fluently

Same here, Ivan. I still don't understand how/why those guys aren't locked-up since there is clear video evidence of what they're doing. But, I'd sure like to try some of their products, especially a 100% corn product. Adding sugar to the mash is called a 'mixto' in the tequila world, versus real tequila that is made 100% from fermented agave. Mixtos are 'no bueno'!"This may not matter to you, but it does to me for various reasons, many of them illogical or irrational, but the vinyl hobby is not really logical or rational..." - member on Vinyl Engine

some got caught and near busted this year if you watched the very first one. Mark and Digger stated they are not in cuffs yet but they could be soon.
How is there evidence? That could all be water and no liquor, You cannot prove it's liquor just by watching.
I'd love to try some to but I'd need tiny airplane bottles, and I'd probably barf! -

Nice! Tell us a little something about it.
The Arioso 300B is an integrated class A SET amplifier. The output tubes use stabilized DC current heater supply. A dedicated system separates the tube heating circuit from the stabilizer system. The entire amplifier circuit was built using the point-to-point method. The unique design and high grade components allowed us to achieve a very natural, incredibly detailed and musical sound, with well-controlled bass and a rich but not „emphasized" midrange.
Technical Specification
Output power: 2 x 8W
Frequency range: 15Hz – 32KHz +/- 3dB
Input sensitivity: 1V RMS
Input impedance: 100KOhm
THD: 0,3% @ 1KHz @ 1W and 2,5% @ 1KHz @ 8W
Input selector: 3 RCA inputs
Remote control: ON-OFF, input selector, volume, mute
Dimensions: 410x 330 x 210mm (incl. tubes)
Weight: 25kg
Designed, developed & made 100% in Poland
Box content
Beautifully hand-crafted Tube Amp
Electro Harmonix Gold 300B power tubes
CV181-TII PsVane 6SN7 driver tubes
NOS rectifier tube
AC cord

Wonder what the output impedance is and who did the OPTs for it?
I assume it's a zero added NFB design (?).
Also wonder what they used for the "NOS" HV rectifier -- looks like maybe a 5U4, but it's hard to tell how large it is, hidin' behind the 300Bs.
