    Under-Sink Water Filter?

    Thank you folks for a very helpful / informative thread. No basement so that option is out. So under-sink it is. I had narrowed it down to the ProOne FS10 or the Aquasana 5300. Decided to go with the Aquasana due to the lower cost and mostly comparable specs. But we'll see. Some users have noted...

    Under-Sink Water Filter?

    Anyone here have experience with either the ProOne FS10, Aquasana 5300 or Clearly Filtered triple-filter systems? I read that the Clearly Filtered and ProOne don't need a separate spigot installed but can cut down on the water pressure. The Aquasana 5300 seems like a good option and is less...

    The final curtain - Mama finally passed away

    Please take care of yourself the best you can. I know from being my mom's caretaker for many years that my own well being took a hit. It sounds like your mom is getting the love and support she needs and the wife and I wish they best for whatever the future brings.

    Another chapter closes ...... no more Miata

    I wish you the very best. After my recent heart surgery, from which the recovery is very slow, I also had to reconsider several things. But one thing I did was get the wife a 2011 Miata which she is completely in love with. I figure she deserves it for putting up with me the past 21 years...

    Very, very nice! Please expand the shot so we can see your 335. Nothing like a 'cherry' Gibson! :)

    Where do I stick the electrical cord?

    Just my 2c's but having had a 7300 and now a 302 I've always gone with the tried and true advice, provided by the tech at McIntosh whose name I can't recall right now, of plugging the amp directly into the wall outlet. My C2200 preamp is plugged into a TrippLite IsoBar12 Ultra which is the same...

    EV Speaker Identification

    I checked with a pal and we both agree it's a Mesa OEM 12L from the 80's. It looks lke yours also has spades instead of spring loads, so that would be another good indication. Of course we could be wrong but it certainly looks the type. Here's a similar one from a Mesa cab someone posted on the...

    EV Speaker Identification

    @Estring Looks like it could be a EVM 12L from the 80's. Could also be a early Force series which are also excellent. Very often when they were used as "OEM" speakers in Mesa and other cabs there would be no back label. Can you post more pics? Backbreaker speakers but truly great sounds! What...

    Anyone using a computer as front end for a guitar rig?

    @JohnT123 Yes and yes. While I have a sweet Tremolux, newer PRRI and some lunch boxes, I actually use my computer setup (Mac Mini) for a guitar rig front end more often than not. Especially if I'm working up a song, comping or doing a demo. I also use it for Pro Tools. Prior to this I was...
