Yet More on Sonic Impact
type: item
description: I care so little about computer sound that I've never done anything other than plug in the crappy little speakers that came with my computer. Well, in preparation for the completion of the computer speakers I'm making, I went out and ordered a Sonic Impact. It arrived, so I hooked it up to the computer and for the time being it's driving a pair of old Optimus (that's Radio Shack, folks) LX-5 speakers I had stored away. All I can say is -- wow! whadda difference. Lots of fun. MP3s played through my computer sound like real music. I'm not gonna tell you that the Sonic Impact is (or is not) producing "audiophile" quality sound, but it's a blast. Meanwhile, I can't use the front door because I've got chicks nesting about three feet from it. No Bats, But Boids

We put bells on her and her sister to discourage bird hunting, although she still spears one once in a while. She lies still and literally grabs one out of the air if it flies past too close to her. She didn't get any of those chicks, though. On an unrelated note, I've begun a pair of Bob Brines's FT-1600 MkII cabinets to rehouse my Fostex FE167Es. Bob Brines's FT-1600 Construction Photos

Speaking of Sonic Impact...

description: One of the things that caught my eye during the Montreal Audio Show in April was the Lotus Amp from Red Wine Audio. A battery powered Class-T amp dressed up in veneer, with high-grade connectors and presumably high-grade internal wiring as well. Didn't get to hear it though. If the T-amp sounds as good as it does with the "inexpensive" mass-produced packaging of the Sonic Impact, should be very interesting to hear how it sounds when executed to the max. Sorry, can't link directly to the photos. Scroll down to D715. Gar. Son&Image

Pool Liner--Totally Off Topic!
type: item
description: tell me a bit about that pool liner. Is it designed to go over the existing coating? How much did it cost? Did you do it yourself, or have to hire it out? I need to do something about my underwater pool finish, I'm hoping to do it this "winter". Sure not going to do it now, with the looming daily 100 degree temps here in Texas. Thanks in advance. Regards, Lee
