    Default What a twat I am !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    I looked but cant see

    The Pioneer SA 500A amp I am goint to try with my Quad 57's only has 2 speaker terminal plus , Right , so I cant use it until I get another 2 , OR so I thought , I am a plonker , The two speaker plugs were in the speaker A sockets and nothing in the speaker B sockets

    I only need one pair , realised this when I decided to buy this https://speaker-terminal.com/en/prod...aker-terminal/

    I thought " Strange " why has it got 8 binding posts

    I then looked at the front of the amp and it has a knob with A OFF B a+b

    And yes I just spent £50 on that panel

    Oh God help me

    I think that qualifies for a O Level in Nobbery.

    The last person that was allegedly "perfect" was believed to have died on a cross over 2000 years ago, so that means the rest of us are fecked

    Richard, please leave it there now. We're not going to have this type of confrontation every time someone innocently uses that word, are we? This is a forum full of blokes, who will therefore sometimes communicate in a blokey way.

    If you find it offensive, which I appreciate, then from now on simply ignore it and concentrate on all the other threads instead where that word hasn't been used. I won't be applying censorship every time someone says "twat", especially in a such an innocent way.

    I trust we can agree, or perhaps 'agree to disagree' on that, and move on? Cheers!

    Marco.
