    Hi Chris You always plan for the worst and hope for the best. If this turns out to be a damp squib, thank God for that. If Desantis had treated this as nothing to worry about and it actually materialized into massive destruction, they would be seeking his head. Too early to tell the full...

    OCD OCI

    Thanks Chris, very helpful. Looks like a well made unit, especially when compared to the POS Chinese electric pump I have been using. Based on your comments, it is not a fast process but one you can mostly leave unattended (within the capacity limits of the vacuum unit). Do you extract while...

    To all our friends and forum members in the central Florida areas about to be affected by Hurricane Milton, please be safe and take the proper precautions to protect your lives. This one looks like the real deal and could be very devastating to life and property. My prayers are with you for...

    OCD OCI

    What model PELA do you use/recommend? I have been using one of the Chinese battery powered extractors. It is slow and very noisy, gets the job done. Is a PELA any faster? And does the vacuum pump element last? I stayed away from them because I envisioned the pump element crapping our quickly.

    Any thoughts on S.E. to balanced signal conversion?

    Correct Chris, plus all the commercially available SE to XLR conversion ICs cite their specifications and surprisingly, they are not zero. No doubt that this box just uses one of these ICs mounted on a circuit board to do the conversion. The majority of the build cost in that box is in the...

    Any thoughts on S.E. to balanced signal conversion?

    Many confuse the function of the power amp volume pots with that of gain control in power amplifiers. Those volume pots are not controlling the gain of the amplifier circuit, the power amp circuit gain remains constant regardless of where the volume pot is set. The volume pot is just...

    Any thoughts on S.E. to balanced signal conversion?

    Doubtful that he will achieve his goal by putting another distortion producing element in the signal path. This comment is interesting, "to achieve lower distortion figures of his amp by setting it to mid-gain instead of high-gain"

    Any members interested in a Sony HandyCam Video 8 VCR...

    I have a Sony Video 8 HandyCam CCD-V5 that I am interested in contributing to a member that likes to fix stuff like this. Haven't used in years and I have no use for it. It somewhat works from what I recall but had a band through the video or something of that sort. If interested, let me...
