Default "Come up the the Lab, and see what's on the slab..."

Cold winter days make for great lab time.

A few shots from the lab.

Far left is a bench power supply and a Variac (speed) controller
Concert H/U with Bose 4-chan amp on right.
2-6.5" speakers, plus the OEM sub-woof in the black cabinet below.
CD changer, minus the skins on the right.

My adapter box and new iPod connector on the table.
Yes, the headlight and 5-switches are mostly functional.
The headlight switch controls the stereo, turning it on/off. Yes, the illumination in all the switches work, through the headlight switch.
5-button panel controls various work lights, plus, yes, a space heater for the room. (It's in the lower level, and it does get cold down here.)
No, the seat-heater buttons DO NOT control the space heater. A bit complex to do this - yet.

The new adapter that uses the Belkin preamp and charger, does indeed charge the iPod through my adapter.

Here the ipod plays through the preamp in the black box, while getting power from the TT, through my adapter box, bak into the H/U.
