The brain? How about the human will? We don't need to live involuntarily. There is an alternative. Just sayin'......
I like full, warm midrange. I like a polite, smooth top end. When I paired the S40s with class AB SS amps, vocals got way too lean and cymbal crashes and the top end of trumpets were too brittle. So, you are probably correct that the tube amp re-fills the mids. It definitely rounds off the top. ...
What are you driving the Dynaudio speakers with? I have a pair of Special 40s being driven by an 8WPC 6L6 tube amp. Sounds great but I need something with a bit more power....

[quote]F1 turning into Jr High with all the drama...[/quote] No offense intended to the poster but how is this any different than any other season of Formula 1? Since I started following in the mid-70s, nothing has changed. F1 is a lot of wealthy, high-testosterone men engaging in a continuous ...
Last spring, I had two 30' oaks cut down, 5 others trimmed, and two small crepe myrtles cut down for $7500. Stump grinding was not included....

[link=(https://bitwarden.com/)]Bitwarden Password Manager[/link] I prefer Bitwarden for password management but there are a lot of good ones out there. Pick one. Turn on MFA on EVERY account that supports it and NEVER re-use the same password. Every password used should be unique, long, and ...
Disclaimer - I am neither a physician nor an epidemiologist. I have been through something similar recently and I will share my perspective. Take it or leave it. Dietary cholesterol and serum cholesterol are only slightly linked though there are some who think there is no connection between the...
Health is a marathon not a sprint. Keep clean eating and exercising and your body will continue to crave both. Congrats, brother. ...
You can decide to eat better and start exercising now or wait until a doctor tells you that you are in danger of having a heart attack or stroke, or worse. Start moving, do anything. Walking up and down your street is a start. Climb the stairs in your house or at work. Do anything. Stop eat...
I am new to this thread but I have read it for some time. Here's my story. I am a 57 year old male who ate poorly and didn't exercise for years. I am 5'9" and started 2023 at 210lbs. I got so fed up with myself around Christmas last year that I committed to cleaning up my diet, losing weight...

Pomegranate juice reverses the condition. I read a few articles about the clinical trial which show that the PJ is effective at reversing blockages.

BTW, I refused to take statins or metformin. In fact, I refused to take all meds for the conditions for which I saw this cardiologist. Instead, I chose diet and exercise and it seems to be working well, so far. ...

I am a 57 year old male with arteriosclerosis. At my doctors strong recommendation, I changed my diet significantly (Mediterranean) and started walking/jogging which resulted in a lot of weight loss over the last year. The lifestyle change is effective (and permanent) since the last labs showed bi...

re: Pomodori Pizza Mandeville!!

Posted by Grillades on 10/27/23 at 10:02 am
Based on your review, I stopped by for lunch yesterday. I ordered the Pomodori pizza. While the toppings were of good quality (uncooked tomato sauce, mozz, parmesan, tomatoes, basil), the dough was kind of a mess. The cornicione was non-existent, there was zero charring on the underside, the doug...
We already deployed some of our on-prem environment to Azure and will continue to add more over time where it fits. Unfortunately, we have a legacy system that requires specific hardware so colocation is the only reasonable solution. Thanks for your responses....
