    Saw this at audioasylum, FWIW. I was gonna quip that it comes with instructions for proper flag etiquette, including an admonition to lower it to half staff if its owner purchases a Class D amp.
    ... fortunately, I remembered that Mac is already selling Class D amps, and demurred. :#

    Trey, I would swear that "growl" I heard in that song....that I can't even remember right now.....came from something like this. Not a Cello.

    Idgit! (me)

    I am experiencing technical difficulties trying to remember that song. Please try again later is all my brain is relaying to me.

    Ah, the song, Where there is Smoke by Dominique Fils-Aimé.

    I hate getting old sometimes. That low level, animal type growl sound is what I am talking about.

    I drive a Ford truck and I had to chuckle at this one. Not a swiftie though and I don't believe I've ever heard even one of her songs.

    Or if the food sucks? :#

    I'd politely decline to eat there, BUT they would never know because that sign on the door would make me keep walking.

    so... my intent here is absolutely NOT to besmirch another forum, or what is in fact a perfectly reasonable question.
    Altec woofers of a certain era famously used a sticky black goo on their (accordion pleat) surrounds to mitigate their mechanical properties (resonant frequency and probably other T/S parameters, too). The goo is notoriously metastable; e.g., it can run and redistribute under the influence of gravity.
    I guess a poster with an Altec driver has some response anomalies (apparently a couple of broad but perhaps not very pronounced peaks) and is asking about a possible causal link. I just found his thread title to be quite amusing...

    Doesn’t sound doable, in today’s market, as people are so gun shy of everything increasing in price at alarming amounts.

    Having owned a restaurant/bar one can easily price themselves out of customers. They have other choices called competition.

    Unless it was a joke?

    No tips allowed, tips priced in. I don't see how this would prevent anyone from dining there.

    I do see how it would be harder to retain workers as tips can be lucrative
