Oh dumb question maybe, but is final output module using balanced outputs? Ya never know…

Could also try little rubber grommets/electrical tape between modules to eliminate contact points maybe?

I think the larger answer though is that 95% of euro users don’t notice, and another 4% don’t care.

I’d guess one particular module that has poor specs, or several, or perhaps more likely several with somewhat poor specs. One way of testing would be pull everything out and put everything back in one at a time. Start with the full on analog stuff and then adding digital. Impractical but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

In case you want to make it a twofer, there’s a circumcision protest kitty corner from the Hancock.

So since I'm annoyed let me say a few things today.Some folks have been writing about Christian Nationalism and apocalyptic right wing movements for YEARS here in the US. YEARS. Do we get to have a platform in major mags and newspapers... rarely.

the scotus comments esp: re: freedom of religion are absolutely divorced from reality. insane. just the most asinine take.

hey listen up the Chicago alderman caught on record threatening constituents, stalking people, threatening rivals’ volunteers, and who even recently called a city worker to try to deny permits over political differences, has some thoughts about politics and political harassment/violence.

I hope deporting fascists never goes out of style.

I just dropped the price to $14.99 as we’ve only got smalls, XL, 2XL, and 3XLs left.

At this rate MAGA will only be able to afford to rent the libs.

Can I get a flight?

Let me finish

Out of here? Thanks.

It's time to talk about how if people really want this American experiment aka "democracy" to survive, they will need to put bodies on the line to protect the vulnerable.

Otherwise, the United States will just become yet another nation ruled by kings, thugs, and cowards.

If you want to display your displeasure over Brendan Whitworth's myopic and futile attempt to keep his shitty brand in 3rd place, hit him where it hurts:

His pride. (12/12)

It's why they're panicking. If anything, AB benefits when you talk about your boycotts and whip up the hot takes & sassy tweets, but it actively fucking hurts when you don't buy Bud at Wrigley, when you turn down the Bud Light at the United Center. (11/12)

If you boycott anything, boycott Bud and Bud Light specifically - these beers are the flagship of the AB brand ethos, and they've been dying a death of a thousand cuts over the last 20 years in a marketplace that seems them as irrelevant. (10/12)

It's in the craft space where you get your resistance to this idiocy, where you see community get built, where you see people take pride in their work creating a beverage to enjoy, not a product as a unit to shift. Don't fuck them over. (9/12)

People will consider boycotting AB over this, and this will filter down to craft breweries owned by ABINBEV and that, on the whole, sucks. (8/12)

And they brew European brands owned by InBev in the US rendering the whole thing comical if it wasn't so stupid. (7/12)

AB's CEO is also actively attempting to suck off the current administration by suggesting the term Domestic Beer be changed to American Beer which is rich coming from a company that has not been American since 2008 (6/12)
