    Sorry for my english. What is a trekkie? A Star Trek fan? Well, I was at the time. Like every science fiction series or movies, like space 1999.
    If your question has to do with the name, you know we audiophiles need some good ears!

    Re: Hi from portugal

    Bom dia Spock and welcome to the forum! You do have a great room and gear and I am really impressed by your DIY cables. I did find the plugs through the French website you described but I wasn't able to find a link to the cable. Can you send a link?

    Thanks!

    p.s. In the evening of December 31 I will make a chouriço a bombeiro. My favorite Portuguese colleague brought my a real one from Portugal including the ribbed vessel. Now I only need to buy some pure alcohol to burn it. I am looking forward as the taste is so full! :-)

    What a good taste you have. Try with some sugarcane liquor or brandy.

    And have an excellent 2018!
