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!

You didn't mention cables Jez.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
Important omission there which I'll remedy!
Mains cables and extension leads: B&Q, Asda, Lidls
Interconnects: Mainly those free "figure of 8" ones that come with cassette decks etc, Some made up by my good self for longer runs with either TV coax, Van Damme microphone cable or RS cheapest own brand mic cable or twisted pair. One pair of 1/2 m long silver foo things someone gave me.
Speaker cable: Don't know what make but it's a quality bi-wire OFC etc "decent brand" cable that came with some speakers I bought. PVC-PVC twin core and earth before that. It made no difference. Latter on workshop system now.
