It is pretty magical circuit.

Thank you for your intervention @Elk. This aggressive troll and his foul language had to be stopped.

Back to audio and, more importantly, back to music.

Hopefully he does not return under yet another moniker, robinhood.

Yes, supposedly his « brother ».

Yeah, as the OP, I get all the posts in my email.
All this happened while I was sleeping (I am on vacation in Europe).
I couldn’t believe what I read in my email this morning.
Unreal, man.

Missed it, fortunately. Elk did his magic eraser thing. @Elk, thank-you once again.

It was starting to get ugly. Be very, very glad you missed it. I missed the last of it, but unfortunately was there for the beginning and middle of it. Elk done good!

What did I miss ? :sweat_smile:

This is funny considering you supported the guy and emboldened him
.

I support anyone who is getting attacked. ANONYMOUS asked a simple question, and several people gave him all sorts of flack and attitude in response. All I did was apologize to him for that treatment.

I expect the group to be self-censoring to a degree as to what is proper or improper behavior, but he was in fact getting picked on. Arguably some of this was justified. This however got out of hand, provoking his over the top responses. There is enough blame to go around.

More importantly, the thread is cleaned up, no one is hospitalized, and the sun came up this morning. So let’s move on.

But, I do have to see a spine surgeon for my back, but he doesn’t have any openings until 9/27. Oh, well.

Good job, @Elk. You are to be commended for a prompt and decisive intervention.

Indeed, I don’t think ANONYMOUS is a bad person. He offered me help with my vacation in France, and even sent me his email and phone number. He just gets completely out of control sometimes, which is absolutely not ok. The language barrier probably doesn’t help.

Anyway, like you said, back to sharing our passion for music, and systems that allow us to connect with it. Like Paul said, if the emotion doesn’t go through, keep looking.

He seemed to enjoy the jazz thread as well, with great insights and a welcome different perspective. Even though on more than one occasion he chose to poke the bear. To be honest sometimes the bear needs a friendly benign poke, but the bear is a bear.

Only after he was rude and ridiculed people. And I would not call it being picked on. He got prickly responses only after he got prickly

As with bickering four year-olds, I do not care who started it.

Again, let’s move on.

Or I’ll stop this car right now!

Love it :joy::joy::joy:

As OP, happy belated congrats, @OC_Zed :tada:.
How is the burn in going ?

If you want to compare it to analog, the incredible SPP from Darren is the ticket.
