    Arctic Freezer III now available.....

    Anybody running one of the 420s in the front of a Fractal Torrent? Thinking about doing so but keep reading conflicting reports of whether it fits nicely or not (some suggest the fan mount for the fans on the bottom of the case needs to be very slightly trimmed to get it to fit... I'm not...

    The funny part is swapping from Bass to Guitar or the other way around and temporarily feeling like a freaking giant playing strands of hair or grappling with this gigantic monster strung with suspension bridge cables

    UK Gladiators - 2024 reboot

    Agreed - we watch it on Sunday morning/lunchtime because our daughter is a little bit too young so watching it live messes up her bedtime routine and she likes to watch it with us

    We bought one from Ikea, they had various pretty big mirrors to choose from

    UK Gladiators - 2024 reboot

    Wow what a crazy amount of upsets all in that one episode... feel bad for Chung and Kerry Also feels weird that one of the men's finalists is the guy who never even competed in any heats and randomly got brought in instead of an actual heat runner up to replace someone else who dropped out (and...

    I hope it works - I did similar in our garage but it's not powerful enough to overcome the heat when it's really hot. The brick walls just kick out so much heat it's like being inside a kiln and there's no way the little portable AC can overcome that (we even bored a proper hole through the...

    (reacting to a few posts back) lol Motley Fool... "Here's how I would turn £5k into a £50k a year passive income!!!!!!!111!!!!" (read article) * Invest £5k per year into an ISA over a period of 25 years * Tadaaa * BUT there's this one stock that is absolutely incredible best opportunity of...

    Nah man people's heads sit poking out of the top of a little mountain plateau made of traps all the time, you're crazy

    Humble Choice

    I was a little disappointed when I first saw it but based on the reactions above maybe the games are better than I realised

    I saw someone on reddit asking if Giant's physique was natty or not :cry: really hope they were joking

    Something doesn't sound right to me, signal to the interface is too hot or something like that... but I'm no expert And ahh, theory... My only bit of advice would be don't overthink it and don't over-do it, it's not a chart or a collection of information you learn and then apply to the...

    I'm curious what you mean by the plugins can't do clean? Some are definitely better suited to clean tones than others but I find I can get some lovely cleans out of the Soldano... and when I tried out the Tone King, Corey Wong and Tim Henson ones they all had great cleans

    Oh baby I love Rolls Royce... 230% up and climbing for me My only regret is my holding isn't in an ISA... might skim off 1x CGT allowance's worth of profit and re-buy it within an ISA at the year end

    Really I think the presenters ought to be vaguely sport-y people in some way... as otherwise practically every single "joke" is some variation of "I am lazy/unfit lol"

    UK Gladiators - 2024 reboot

    I am also here to express my outrage at letting someone skip the heats and go straight to the quarters - and to add insult to injury - he won! Agree Gauntlet is pants - it always has been. Get rid of it and bring back Atlas Spheres I say - or the one where they are suspended from bungee cords...

    You say you can't mix and match pedals but you can in a DAW - it is a bit of a faff but you can just have multiple copies of the plugin in the chain and switch off the amp + cab simulation in the ones which are only supposed to be doing pedal stuff. I don't do it often but for example if I...

    Anything in particular you want to know? I've bought 2 of them both in Black Friday sales when they almost always do 50% off - got the Soldano 100 and the Archetype: Rabea Was very skeptical myself of the whole plugin scene and had never even considered it, with my tone snob hat on, up until a...

    You drink a glass of salt water? Why on earth? Salt has to be one of the things which is hardest not to over-do even outside of supplements Our first full month's worth turned up (the first batch we shared and had for 2 weeks to see if it was okay) - but actually last Friday I woke up feeling...

    Yeah an Iceman :D but this is the 2014 X-Series IC520 which were discontinued ages ago and were never super popular due to being quite a divisive so kind of rare! One popped up on Reverb in Poland for an okay price and I was so tempted to grab it but waited too long deliberating. It has got me...

    Bah... coming for support I saw a guitar I have been lusting after for as long as I remember come up on Reverb, did not buy it immediately as I was trying to decide if I could justify it and then it got snapped up by another buyer before I talked myself into it :( Won't see another one of...
