Old Fan

i wanted a fan for my place, as the west facing windows allow quite a bit of temperature increase on warmer days. this fan is built like a tank. though it also has the potential to destroy as a tank does, with a heavy aluminum 4-blade fan and a rather spacious yet very elegant fan guard. if i'm not careful, someone may lose a finger!

i do know why most fans today are plastic from a performance standpoint, but they sure don't have the same aesthetic!

it has one speed, and the ability to oscillate or to not. i'll have to look into which year this was manufactured.

MQ104

to go along with my McIntosh XR-5 speakers, i picked up a MQ104. the XR-5 speakers were designed to be paired with a mcintosh equalizer, so i finally find one! $140 shipped via ebay. it also comes with a capacitor kit so that you can customize which frequencies the equalizer impacts. there's an on off switch so you can directly detect just what impacts the equalizer has on the system. i have been spending a month or so fine tuning it and still haven't got it right. which i like :)
