    I saw Charlie Daniels at the Vermont State Fair some years ago. He went
    on right after the Tractor Pull, and before the Pig Races. Seemed
    appropriate to me at the time.

    83 - not too bad a span. I think his first break came with playing
    on Dylan's "Nashville Skyline". Looks like that was bass & guitar.

    You have not lived until you put a Variac on a Kemper.

    Many digital devices shit the bed if you try to take
    them up slowly. Especially the ones which taste the
    mains to see what flavor they are before deciding on
    how they will operate. Fuck it - you probably won't
    blow more than three or four fuses before you figure
    out where the fun zone is. If you have a FLIR camera
    you can sometimes spot temp rise from even a couple
    of seconds worth of operation between power up and
    the fuse blowing. Digital has its own mojo and the
    digital dudes have their own tricks for finding faults.
    As for me, make mine tubes - I'm too fucking old to
    learn new tricks, even though I could if I wanted to.
    I know a shit-ton of the ancient mojo, and that's why
    I get the big money.

    Yes. That's the joke. This extends to some
    things actually getting hot enough to blast the package.

    Especially the ones which taste the
    mains to see what flavor they are before deciding on
    how they will operate. Fuck it - you probably won't
    blow more than three or four fuses before you figure
    out where the fun zone is. If you have a FLIR camera

    digital dudes have their own tricks for finding faults.

    Yes. But one of the first things I learned to use in a lab
    full of digital stuff ( but with linear power supplies )
    was a Variac for power fail testing.

    As for me, make mine tubes - I'm too fucking old to
    learn new tricks, even though I could if I wanted to.

    Lotta roads; we all have to pick one.

    He was racist, red-neck piece of shit.

    Go look up what he said when Obama was elected.


    i was just providing information about ,
    a guitar player that people likely know ,
    i don't care what anyone thinks he was


    MAKES YOU AN IGNORANT , RACIST, PIECE OF SHIT TOO

    I'll bet he's smart enough not to try to run a
    guitar amp on a light dimmer, though.

    You have not lived until you put a Variac on a Kemper.

    Many digital devices shit the bed if you try to take
    them up slowly. Especially the ones which taste the
    mains to see what flavor they are before deciding on
    how they will operate. Fuck it - you probably won't
    blow more than three or four fuses before you figure
    out where the fun zone is. If you have a FLIR camera
    you can sometimes spot temp rise from even a couple
    of seconds worth of operation between power up and
    the fuse blowing. Digital has its own mojo and the
    digital dudes have their own tricks for finding faults.
    As for me, make mine tubes - I'm too fucking old to
    learn new tricks, even though I could if I wanted to.
    I know a shit-ton of the ancient mojo, and that's why
    I get the big money.

    Expert (fuck you)

    Semiconductors are incredibly reliable. If a device, whether
    it be a lowly 1N4001 diode or the latest whiz-bang Intel CPU,
    passes probe and final test it's likelyhood of failing due to
    defects in materials, workmanship, or design are extremely
    small. Occasional fuck-ups happen; the Seagate electromigration
    debacle comes to mind. But even basic commercial grade silicon
    has an astonishingly low defect and failure rate IF USED WITHIN
    THE SPECIFICATIONS.

    Now, board-level engineers don't generally run devices outside
    of specs. They don't even usually run them close to the limits.
    What they DO do is cut corners in design to save production costs.
    This causes probably 98% of the failures you see in consumer gear.
    Of the remaining 2%, probably around 1% are design shortcomings
    due to something being overlooked, while probably 99.9% of the
    remaining 1% is a board-level manufacturing defect that makes it
    through testing. The remaining .001% is random defects that crop
    up during operation, but even most of that is avoidable if one
    is willing to spend the money. See defense, aerospace, and medical
    electronics for an example that generally avoids all of the
    issues because it HAS TO, and cost is no object.

    Part of the "board level manufacturing defects" are self-inflicted
    due to RoHS idiocy. Most common lead-free electronic solders require uncomfortably high temperatures during the reflow or wave solder
    process, and the alloys lack ductility which makes them susceptible
    to strain-induced failures. Due to RoHS, most leads in electronic
    components are finished in straight tin plating. A large number of
    random failures in consumer electronics can be traced to tin whiskers.
    They are never identified because the item in question is usually
    cheap, so it just gets tossed and replaced with a new one.

    I could go on and on, but electronics failure analysis and prevention
    is an enormous subject. There is plenty of free info online if you're interested, not to mention scores of papers written on all kinds of
    failure modes, some pretty esoteric in nature.

    In the case of music/audio/studio gear, most failures are caused by
    what I mentioned above. "Pro" gear should be engineered and manufactured
    to a higher standard, but much of it is no different design-and-build
    wise from cheap consumer rubbish. Especially the shit made in China,
    as we all know.

    Expert, and generally arrogant prick. (Deal with it, lefturds.)

    I've not heard that quote, before.

    Now, it makes more sense. heh heh.......
