Thanks for the hospitality, CG.  I'm pretty new to the AC having spent most of my time to date at AA, AK, and DIYAudio.

It's nice over here!

I'm currently into a few (too many) projects. The first priority is to finish an SCA-35 rebuild with ST-35 amp boards and a Scott Nixon DacKit. Then I'll fiinish a stand-alone Scott Nixon TDKit with multiple inputs that I've started. Then I'd like to create a more sophisticated "Digital Preamp" that can directly feed a tube power amp that has all digital sources.  There's more but writing it reminds me about how crazy this hobby is.  :o

Happy 4th to everyone.

Hey Kurt, coolio  :)

We try to stay even-handed.  I get a little shitty sometimes, as does oft-prickly supreme leader JohnR...and Occam, the lad in The Lab, by design or nature.  The rest of the moderators are more much congenial at all times here at AC. 

It's a good place, overall - we try not to let one's voice and honest opinions get shouted down.

I try to remember the heavy-handedness Galileo was given for proposing that the earth actually was NOT the center of the universe...so time, rather than circumstance, will be the arbitrator of 'rightness' sometimes. Poor guy wasn't exonerated but for 360 years later.....THAT's hard feelings  :wink:

BTW: TheChairGuy is (IMHO) the model poster.  The poster boy if you will.  Honestly, I have not encountered a better example of how to conduct yourself online. 

Best!

Now you're comin' on strong, NorCaler's....you're either a shy bunch, or overworked and too busy to post much with some of the highest housing prices in the US. Ha / not  :cry:

In the hills, near Cragmont Park.

In the hills of what, Phil?

I'm sorry - I've lived here only less than 5 years now and have seen and done a bunch, but don't know every nook and cranny yet.  Is Cragmont Park a town, or a section of a larger town/city I should know?

'Cause, I don't  :oops:

Thanks - re-reading this it looks a little smart-assy....but, it's not in any way meant to be that  :)

Thanks, John

Cragmont Park is in the North Berkeley Hills.  I'm sure he "assumed" you knew that as a fellow Bezerkeleyite!  Martin just down the hill in El Cerrito.

Okay, now I'm starting to get it.....but, I'm not in Berkeley.  I'm across the bridge in Tiburon.  Been to Berkeley several dozen times, but don't know each neighborhood intimately yet. 

Meiching....are you saying you're 'Martin' and live in El Cerrito? (I'm 98% certain that's what you meant)

Thanks, John
