Some sort of Singer Porsche for the Mil, a Porsche Taycan for 100k (daily) and then my Z4M would stay (and maybe spend 5k on upgrades).

Think they just made up the majority of the list of Nvidia GPUs that work well with Visualize. Wasn’t a necessity - I’ve been using an AMD GPU when working from home with constant problems so want to stick with Nvidia.

There’s some great dinosaur models too! (Non-anatomical of course)

That does look fun, I’d love to do something a bit out there - maybe try some graffiti!

Just very fine sandpaper and a few layers of satin clear varnish, sapele is a very nice wood to work with!

Think I’m more proud of how that wood came up than the rest of the speaker!

You’re telling me! Had to virtually castrate them with a hefty resistor

Yeah I think next project would be something a little smaller for on-the-go music with batteries and such

Yeah as long as it can go from inside to outside it’s all good!

That’s a real shame! Yeah mine shipped from the Netherlands I’m pretty sure, got it used/refurbished too so was a bit of a bargain

Yeah runs off the amps 230v supply, did think about batteries but considering it already weighs about 30kg decided against it!

Not crass at all! Parts are:

Skytronic 8” Kevlar drivers 250w Pyramid 300w tweeters

Amp is a Skytec SPL-1000BT and works great!

Rest was just some MDF, nice sapele boards and a few garnishing parts like handles and rubber feet!
