    Is this Marco's dangly bits? Guess it's only a hazard if it's switched on !

    Must admit, this is a dedicated circuit concept which is new to me, but why only one socket to all those cables?

    The answer probably lies in the soil......

    What wood is the stick made of? It's important.

    Also, you need a different length stick for each album you play. It's easy to work out. If an album has a mean frequency of say 1kHz, then the stick needs to be 34.3 cm long. Any other length will result in a mean frequency to wavelength mismatch and negatively affect the sound.

    P.s. Scrub my first comment. Thinking about it, one has to leave the cover off in order to let the radiated mains flux to dissipate properly.
