well, I think we've all heard that phrase, "Infrastructure Week" at sometime or another by various politicians, sometimes to no effect at all, but at AudioWorx West it has been "Infrastructure Week" in order to reorganize one of the key workrooms to cope with "project overload".
Yes, I do NOT normally work on 3 or more large speaker projects at the same time- or even 3 small ones! But shifting priorities and requests from SMJ, as well as new mandates from Evil Twin has necessitated changing boats in mid river at times, and trust me, that's not easy to do carrying a couple of bins of partly assembled crossovers!
ET made it clear I either figure this out, or he would step in and re-organize for me...
This is still a work in progress, (to be finished this weekend, do or die) but it already feels much better-
And while for me, this would have been reasonable activities for the holiday break, I find myself in the position where a coalition of Russian and Ukraine personnel have insisted on my participation in efforts to convey a Siberian partisan, a defector from the Federal Security services, to the Bainbridge WA area to meet up with agents recently returned from covert activities in Sweden, whose collected experience and data will likely be incorporated into plans being made by the Seattle area purveyor of operating systems and feeble efforts at ARM based computing. (in a certain light, all of the preceding paragraph is true...)
It's hard to catch a break some days...
For the rest of you, I convey my wishes for a more conventionally conducted Holiday time with family and friends, though in the days that we seem to be living, rules are made to be broken, and the world does seem turned upside down at times. Or all the time.

This is still a work in progress, (to be finished this weekend, do or die) but it already feels much better-
- the big technical plotter has been returned to storage for now,
- a new vintage 47" Tresanti sit-stand desk has been brought out of storage and assembled
- The VituixCAD/WIN10 CAD system has been transferred from a small mobile sit-stand desk to the Tresanti desk, and a 43" LG 4K monitor from storage installed for it
- New shelving arrangements for the crossover component and build bins for the current key projects have been setup and grouped:
- Saint-Saens/SMJ-40
- Kii Xtreme
- ET CCTT
- Upper modules from Saint-Saëns have been positioned to be used in concert with new ATS Acoustics panel for the CCTT testing.
- The mobile rack music server system has been brought out of storage and will be ready for updates and new music files, and a preamp update is being considered for evaluation (to be discussed in a separate thread.
- The 4K projector has been brought out of storage along with two high end HDR 4K disk players.
