What are you doing today that is Hi-Fi related?

Add a drizzle of nice olive oil and some imported oregano on those potatoes and now you're talking....
Squeeze a couple of drops of fresh lemon on them and you'll be in seventh heaven. ;)

Another great recipe if you like spicy: marinade the Shills in Jerk Sauce overnight, grill them over mesquite, baste with a little jerk sauce a couple of minutes before pulling off grill. Serve with a fresh mango papaya salsa, white rice with a touch of cinnamon and sliced almonds, and of course ice cold beer……

Today, setting up the basement system on the new rack.
I assembled the rack a couple of weeks ago, I'm finally placing the gear on today.

Looks GREAT!
 
Tonight I'm going to be doing the Brunoco 6L6 using 1945 vintage National Union and Sylvania 807's (VT-100's).

Tomorrow will be some type 45 mono blocks with this pre-amp that uses type 27 tubes:

Purchased this for setiing up client systems. Green lasers are 4X easier to see than red lasers.IMG_4579.jpeg

Hi, Lee. I have found that a 16 point laser can dial in measurements and parameters much more than just a single laser. Mine is also green, but I guess I got lucky. My tri-point Johnson Laser is red, but it is directional and does not produce a continuous line all around the room. The self leveling feature is also great for floors that...well, not so level.

Using the walls as part of the measurement is silly to me, only because the walls are also not "perfect". This will skew things.

I plan to collect my new phono stage later on today.
Have some dedicated listening planned for the afternoon.

Adding Stillpoints Ultra 5 v2 and in a second step bases to my power strip.

To begin with, power strips are imho very responsive to footers.
This Furutech 609 ncf rhodium is nicely built, but still is very responsive to these things.
U5 replaced Ultra stainless steel on bases.
U5 were an immediate improvement.
Better deep bass, more forceful, more drama, excitement (when the music has it). Better placement and more precise images.
