    Dealing with ice storm

    Without internet for a while. Neighbors giant oak tree fell root ball and all skimmed house, did some damage. Ripped off power and cable wiring and blocked driveway. Other than that, it was perfect day. NOT!!

    Installing Bridge Snubbers onto PL700B and PL700 Series 2 amplifiers (now available with 50A/600V Bridge option)

    I prepared this photo tutorial to guide you through the bridge snubbers on these amplifiers. PL400 amplifiers are easy as there is plenty of clearance. The PL700 amplifiers have less clearance all around so this provides the technique to be successful. Hope it helps you out.

    I am about to upgrade the GPU in my workstation as the MCAD program I use all the time is upping the ante on minimum GPU requirements for an upcoming December release. Very nice of them to pre-warn ahead of time, that kind of support is rare. I have proven I can get by with the AMD FirePro...

    Email Migration

    I finally bit the bullet today and migrated the whiteoakaudio.com email server to one that won't have the limitations that I have presently. I had procrastinated on this (because it is always a pain in the butt) for long enough but was constantly having to go in and flush contents of the old...
