![]() Whereas it is essential to promote the development of friendly relations between nations, Whereas it is essential, if man is not to be compelled to have recourse, as a last resort, to rebellion against tyranny and oppression, that human rights should be protected by the rule of law, Whereas disregard and contempt for human rights have resulted in barbarous acts which have outraged the conscience of mankind, and the advent of a world in which human beings shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief and freedom from fear and want has been proclaimed as the highest aspiration of the common people, Whereas recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world, It sets out, for the first time, fundamental human rights to be universally protected and it has been translated into over 500 languages. The UDHR is widely recognized as having inspired, and paved the way for, the adoption of more than seventy human rights treaties, applied today on a permanent basis at global and regional levels (all containing references to it in their preambles). Drafted by representatives with different legal and cultural backgrounds from all regions of the world, the Declaration was proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in Paris on 10 December 1948 ( General Assembly resolution 217 A) as a common standard of achievements for all peoples and all nations. Then again the caps in my crossovers are 25 years old.The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) is a milestone document in the history of human rights. Nothing I do is going to make it "better". all hidden except for the streamer and the speakers. Sent the Khadas back to Amazon, put the rest away, and shoved everything back whence it came. With the good lady out at Ascot yesterday (another freebie!) I set about swapping them all out. Also picked up the well regarded Khadas tone board from Amazon. Picked up a few alternatives along the way, including one with a tube output stage, supposedly ideal for tempering all that "digital harshness". Right, so digital front end is fine, amp is as good as it's going to get, improvements must lie in the ancient DAC, right? Did it sound better? Not that I could tell, but it's got some power! I needed a small, powerful amp! Built myself an Icepower unit (300AS1 and 300A1 modules, used from ebay!). Maybe because they're bigger boxes! They were certainly in the way. 50W amps but both seemed more powerful than the 3255. ![]() Wasn't expecting any benefits soundwise, it's digital, but at least it plays gapless and shows me some pretty album art! Upgraded the streamer to a Pi 3 with a digi HAT, and eventually a screen, running Volumio. is it better? Not really, but it was still cheap. Not ideal, but my wife of 33 years is partially deaf, and suffers my system in the house having no interest in it whatsoever.Īnyway, I bunged a streaming system together with what I had laying around and then started "improving" it. sorted out, I found a mutually acceptable place to fit them in the house. they were in reasonable condition but needed new foam on the mids and a clean up. Guy selling them had stopped someone throwing them into a skip at the local recycling centre. I'd never heard of them, but they were big and interesting. I think today I got there with the hi-fi!Ī couple of years ago, I found an advert for a pair of Mirage M3si speakers a mile away. ![]() Two years ago, sold all three performance/classic bikes in my garage and bought one sensible one. finding bargains in both fields when I had to. Also, while not nearly broke, have never had endless money to lavish on hobbies, which means I've got quite good at being a cheapskate. 65 now, into music and motorcycles all my adult life.
