I have a map. A map to a place called PADRE. He should be pleased.

BTW, Lon has helped me over the years to understand some things. Our experiences are quite different, but I still can learn from folks willing to help. Lon has consistently been one willing to help everyone.

Removed context, but here's a good joke.
This popped up for me to buy, when I went searching for a pair of house slippers.

I can not imagine ever shopping for anything similar on Amazon, but as some of us discussed elswhere, they follow our trends and cater to our needs. Grin

Check this thing out ....

Notice that this is very special equipment since it will drive a "4Q load." (Help me, here. Doesn't 4Q mean something else?)

i think cheap audioman adores that little blue tooth amp, ive purchased quite a few of those chinese little bear tube preamps in past for friends that want tubes but dont want tubes, you know to sit and glow on top of their sansui 9090db or whatever. so my recommended list is stuffed full of electronics.

i also bought a few power tubes for ufo2.1 from the world of zon but based on the meters on 2.1 they are not as matched as tight as one would hope for but I guess if you buy enough of them you can always rematch and get tighter duets.

DancingSea Seasoned Member Posts: 477	Re: new member Reply #19 - 06/15/22 at 18:43:07 Well, that little guy was recently made famous by, and this is the actual channel, Cheap Audio Man on YouTube as his product of the year. Zero Fidelity has posted a review saying the sound is good, but his unit had manufacturing defects and that it’s actually 50 watts instead of the stated 100. https://youtu.be/SGBMIs7r1II

I knew people would tell me how off I was by making a joke about the 4Q and such.
I was also entertained that that unit popped up while I was shopping for slippers.
Grin

Cheap Audio Man? Never heard of him, but if I ever need bluetooth, outside of a keyboard/mouse combo, maybe this cute thingy could be my savior.

I have watched while friends bought heavily marketed Chinese gear and suffered. I just figured this oddball piece was funny enough to laugh at some more.

I'll just grab me coat 'n hat, find the door on me own.

Sorry, I thought Amazon trying to sell me tube gear was a blanking riot. Maybe not. I do not need one. Let us know how yours turns out.

DancingSea Seasoned Member Posts: 477	Re: new member Reply #22 - 06/15/22 at 19:47:38 Yes, 4Q is pretty funny. There is a plethora of cheap tube gear on Amazon, for better or worse. Along with the more respectable Willsenton R8 types..... Zero Fidelity's review of the T9 exposed serious manufacturing issues, so it can be hit or miss....
