    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!”

    Hi Darren and welcome. My first decent amp was a Sansui receiver from the 70's, beautiful thing with lots of knobs and dials and a lovely green tuning scale. Weighed a ton and sounded great, I wish I still had it.

    My music is varied depending on alcohol intake.
    My next dilemma is do i use my old mans Sansui BA-2000 power amp or do I sell it. I was going to bi amp two BA-2000 but ebay sent me a sony STR-DB870 instead. So lm not sure what my system will evolve into but it will definitely be Sansui dominant.
