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.”

Very clean Yamaha CT-810 tuner. Looks like it may go cheaply. Finishes this evening.

Unusual "Monitor Audio" prototype transmission line speakers. They certainly look interesting.

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

Home made speakers (B200 & DT3 in daft arrangement). Probably a disaster.
