This was an amp a chum brought round for repair last year, there was a quick discussion on it in the 'Nothing in particular thread'. I'm looking at a chum's Cambridge Audio amp, reported fault was sparks when the speaker leads touched! :shock: I've found about 12 to 17V DC across the lhd speaker ter...

Thanks for feeling my pain Bro'

Good list. Thanks. Class ! - but my brain is whirring away thinking where JM's track 'Don't want to know' comes from. I must go off and check. Thanks again, its from Solid Air, Side 1 track 3. Its one of my Funeral tracks too (and got played at our Wedding). He re-recorded it a few times when he st...

There's a live 'Teapot-era' release coming out too, I think that might be pre-Mike Howlett and have Francis Moze from Magma on Fretless Bass. I've got a l...

Oh bummer, I liked his playing with Skynnrd.

Kerrrrikey! I was thinking that too, thats a lot of extra weight.

You'll have legs like tree trunks by the time you've done your tour I bet!

It is touring isn't it, not shopping?

Superb fun listen.

... and we added the Two Tunnels loop onto the end, a good ride that was.

Do you pedal? Very rarely, there was a very steep hill I came across where the Maxi just couldn't cope on its own so I applied 'Light Pedal Assistance' as its deemed but even a mahoosive climb like Wrotham Hill it seems to cope with pretty well. I'm just over 16st currently but it got me all the wa...

I've been clocking up the miles on the Maxi recently, its a lot of fun to ride.
