    We did exactly that a few years ago with a student - worked very well. There's not much point putting the port in the top section though.

    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!”

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    That's exactly what I thought when I saw the pictures.

    I have all sorts of ideas for speakers. I've built around fifty pairs in the past. One thought that keeps crossing my mind, is a minimal energy storage full range horn. Built using a wire frame covered in hard doped paper. The whole enclosure maybe weighing a couple of kilos without driver. It may sound daft, but the principle has been used successfuly in the past.
