AndyTravis Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Asking for clarification. For a friend (genuinely) if I swapped a gold bridge to a black bridge…(it would require a purchase) but it’s a like for like swap - hi mass for hi mass… is that an out? @Machines didn't ask, so I will… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happens. Not quite. What actually happened was I asked Alexa to add this to my shopping list (my wife's a fan of a bottle or two on a Tuesday night): 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely not, got nothing to use it on, but I was curious as to how far @bassfan would allow the boundaries to be pushed… I’m just not looking at the pics @walshyhas sent me 🤤 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The purists would say no, nada, not a chance, you’ll go to hell, however life is to short and it’s a bridge replacement. “Your friend” will need to do some deep soul searching and possibly go to therapy of some kind to be able to be comfortable with the decision that he comes to.

jezzaboy Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I crumbled and bought a Sadowsky pre amp but I blame @Thunderbird as he was looking for a simple pre amp I also returned the Gnome amp I bought so I reckon that`s a 2 for 1, so a QC says that I`m ok! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maude Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 There seems to be serious lack of will power in this thread... but an abundance of excuses so it all balances I 'spose. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my will power lasted quite well.
