In 1968, The Silver Thunders enjoyed a good reputation within the Bogotá rock circuit... Today, none of the three living members of the band remembers where they got the money from to invest in the recording, but they got together three or four hours a week over several months in 1968 at the studio Suramericana de Grabaciones. The details of the sessions are hazy and nobody knows who sat behind the mixing desk. However, Jorge López (lead guitar) and Orlando Córdoba (bass guitar) both say that the studio was uncomfortable and precarious. This didn't undermine the group's upbeat spirit. That's how things were back then: no editing tricks and no option of doing several takes, as reels of tape were very expensive. The Silver Thunders, with Edgardo Córdoba (rhythm guitar) and Carlos Cardona (drums) completing the line-up, recorded live a repertoire influenced by Mersey beat and British R&B, American surf and garage, the psychedelia of The Beatles and a dash of African pop. This is conveyed in the raw cover versions of 'And Your Bird Can Sing', 'Got To Get You Into My Life' and 'A Day In The Life' by the Liverpool four; 'Mary, Mary' by The Monkees; 'Wild Thing' by The Troggs; 'Wild Angels', taken from the soundtrack of the film of the same name; 'Summer In The City' by The Lovin' Spoonful, plus a surprising cover of 'Pata Pata' by the South African artist Miriam Makeba. Although the presence of The Beatles predominates, the band delves deep into style of The Ventures in 'Good Thing' and an exquisite and naive cover version of 'Strawberry Fields Forever' after the instrumental track that Don Wilson and Bob Bogle's combo made famous in 1967. The recording also includes 'Alma Agobiada', an original song by Carlos 'Caniche' Cardona and the only remaining example of The Silver Thunders' own repertoire... A couple of years later, Jorge López went off to finish his studies and Carlos Cardona joined the ranks of Los Flippers. The Córdoba twins carried on playing, accompanied by Hernando Orjuela on keyboards and Eduardo Acevedo on drums. They fell under the influence of the mysticism of the guru Maharishi Mahesh Yogui. At the end of the decade, the four Silver Thunders became Los Yoguis and recorded 'Birthday' and 'Revolution' by The Beatles at the Ingeson studios, as well as 'Shape Of Things To Come' and 'Listen To The Music', both from the soundtrack of the film Wild In The Streets... -Luis Daniel Vega

Weak, Flat, Tinny Sound
Style: R-S202BL, Configuration: receiver only
My Insignia NS-STR514 suddenly died after a year of glorious sound (device still turned on, switch inputs, etc, just no sound), and I had to find another stereo receiver to replace it. Yamaha seemed to be a pretty popular brand, especially among musicians and home theater enthusiasts, so I figured I couldn't go wrong. Wrong. From the minute I hooked this receiver up I noticed a significant drop in power, range, and overall quality. This device is advertised as having the same 100w of power per channel, so this is really surprising for a major brand. I used to have to turn the Insignia up to 20, but this device has to be turned up to 44 to get the same loudness. When you do get this device cranked up enough to hear something, the sound is very flat. There's no other way to describe it. There's no range. Even if bass cranked to max you can barely hear it. The treble is weak, flat, and distorts at high volume. This device is literally making my stereo speakers that cost $300.00 each sound like a boom box from the 90's. I was considering upgrading my turntable to a higher quality one, but now, what's the point? On the flip side, the sound is clean, crisp. But man oh man is it flat. These days I mostly listen to music on high grade headphones and watch movies and streaming on my projector so it's not a huge loss (high fidelity sound on video games and movies isn't a huge deal to me), but don't buy this for your entry-level audiophile needs. There's got to be better options out there than this. The weak bass especially is unforgivable. *Update 04/25/17* My wife finally grew so tired of this piece of junk that I got rid of it and bought another Insignia Stereo Receiver. Unreliable as it is (dead after 2 years) it's still better than this garbage. The bass response is absolutely horrible, and the neighbors started complaining about the "booming". That's pretty much the only bass you get from this device. A loud, cheap-sounding thumping. The frequency response of this device is so poor, and the sound so thin and tinny, that even my wife couldn't stand it! Do yourself a favor and avoid this one.

Great quality wire for any automotive or 12 volt wiring
Size: 16 AWG-100 ft
This GS Power 16 gauge wire is excellent quality for any automotive wiring project. The copper is true OFC pure copper, not copper clad aluminum. It’s flexible, easy to route, and holds up well without the insulation feeling cheap or brittle. I have used it for automotive accessory wiring and some 12V equipment projects and it handled everything perfectly. The wire pulls cleanly, solders well, and the insulation thickness gives it a durable feel without being overly bulky. If you need dependable wire for automotive, marine, RV, audio, or general electrical projects, this is a great buy. I would absolutely purchase it again.
