    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    The AT33 PTG/II works well with my Firebottle KIN phonostage.
    What loading options are on the OTP?

    With a standard 100 ohm loading, my money would be on the AT33 PTG/II rather than a Hana EL

    I'm going to standardise on loading sockets, that then gives the greatest flexibility on MC and MM.

    I recently put the At33EV into my Rega arm in place of a DV 10x and much prefer the soundstage and mid body of the AT
    to the 10x. I consider it a big improvement even though it is a cheaper item (can be found at £330 in the U.K.)
