Happy Holidays and Your Favorite Tips?

Fav tips?  *S*....
- Tri-tip beef....but good luck if I'm in the market prior to you....;)
- SOTA ought to be thought of 'Your Version of....' , keeping in mind, ears, and heart that 'This is what 'It Is at present.'  There will always be a 'better' in the opinion of others; your call is just as significant, and there's no law, rule, or regulation otherwise.
- Cut some 'slack' early and often. A 'light touch' can achieve, whereas 'hammers' often typically are 'single-stroke', 'one & done (for)'....

- (On a personal note:  Having GF @mahgister infer to another poster that @yoursunruly can create knots in ones' brain with my ragged references, inferences, and general grammatic garble sets a high bar that may be too far...but, on the other plan...it allows to perhaps loosen the ones' that I have in the process...

Hey....a challenge by any other name....and I'd rather be infamous than famous, anyway....*L* ;).... )

Pre-Toast to '24, y'all, J

...I liked @knotscott s' 'empty gift behavior mod' scenario, But...

...don't be surprised if the kids retaliate in some fashion; 'scars' of that sort can run really deep....

Just sayin'

Clear all your connectors with 99% isopropyl alcohol first including all power cords ,

then Stabilant 22 contact enhancer used by NASA and many others once applied if you don’t touch good up to 12 years I mix 60/40

For the record, this was said in jest.... 😉

For parents - Gift wrap some empty boxes and place them under the tree. Every time one of the kids acts up, grab one of the wrapped boxes and toss it in the fireplace.    😉

My tip, don't spend the majority of your free time discussing audio. It will seriously take time away from the listening part of our hobby, which I believe is how all of us got started. Like not seeing the forest for the trees.
