For Neil Peart I’d be happy to overlook any ethical considerations.

Yorkshire Dales would be my destination

I made couple of bass tramps tuned to the room’s main resonant frequencies, which I measured. I followed instructions from the book.

I added sound absorber panels to the walls and ceiling to kill immediate reflections from the main speakers plus a sprinkling of additional panels to kill reflections and also act as decoration. I also needed to move one radiator because it was in the worst possible location for my setup.

The room got thick curtains to improve absorption, and they also darken the room as it is dual use music listening and home cinema room. A few defraction elements went into the ceiling for a good measure. The ceiling is made of custom panels that I made myself from wood and fabric to allow sound energy through to the various acoustic elements behind them.

I also spent a fair amount of time with subwoofer placement, but in the end it became a bit of a compromise between sound and placement of furniture. Nothing a bit of signal processing can’t deal with, mind.

Master Handbook of Acoustics is your friend if you want to learn what to do to your room. Overkill for most, admittedly, but it contains everything you need to know.

A pint of lager is £5.60 in our local. A year ago it was £5.20.

I can see we are finally asking the real questions. Velvet Quilted.

Two very different environments are my favourites: Yorkshire Dales and Norfolk North coast beaches.

Appetite for Destruction was my first CD. I was in Hong Kong, bought a portable CD player and the G’n’R CD. As I was walking the street in Kowloon, first notes of Welcome to the Jungle hit me with a force. I was hooked immediately. Will see Slash in couple of weeks.

I’m not sure which was first, Rainbow Rising or Metallica …And Justice for All. Both vinyls were played a lot.

Neighbouring town has a street called Pig Lane. Where the police station is. Perfection.

“Torvalds sold out.” Would you mind elaborating what you mean by selling out in this context?

Road crew!

I think I’m going to need a double espresso or two

I’m using Memmy currently. The devs have done a decent job and are improving things very quickly.

I was half thinking making a burger today. I quite like Jamie Oliver’s burger recipe.

Good morning. I was demolishing a floor yesterday and my muscles are expressing their unhappiness in no uncertain terms. I should have stretched properly but the beer after hard work was just too tempting.

Unlucky! I won in a cross country skiing competition. Two participants, and the other boy took a wrong turn and skied 5 km instead of 2.5 km we were supposed to.

I mean a good approach would be to just go through Apollo and … copy with bride! Christian did an amazing job with it.

I think the bullshit picture aligns well with the product!
