    Picked up a pair of the Pangea Prime 1m. Should be a big upgrade over my $1 bottom of the storage bin of misc cables special.

  Demon Days on the limited red vinyl is in. Looks f'ing gorgeous and sounds even better. I love how they kept to the original printing.

    I was as surprised as anyone that America belatedly honored William Rufus King with a national holiday, but he did help draft the Compromise of 1850 which delayed the Civil War by a decade.

  Happy holidays to everyone. Don't forget to put on a fire, power on your tube amp and do so comfy and relaxing listening!

    Pizza impressions better be detailed. Can you make a satanic hexagon comparing chew, crust, cheese,toppings, spices, and authenticity to other well know pizzerias?

  Finished the speed ball upgrade and installed the new potentiometer. Sounds great but I fucked up something up because there is a low hum.

  2. bazelio
    Just unfuck it, and you'll be good. ;-) Suspects include a bad tube (try different tube(s)), bad filter cap. I'm not sure what the speed ball upgrade is, but if the hum responds to the volume control then you can isolate it to a circuit that you changed before vs after the volume pot in the signal path. Etc.

    I am 100% certain it's my volume pot circuit. Will work on it today and let you guys know.
