  • Episode 362 - BURNING THE EQUIPMENT

    In this episode, Robert John Hadfield shares a personal story from his youth about a significant lesson learned through trial and error with sound equipment. The narrative begins with a request from a relative for outdoor audio equipment, leading Robert to reminisce about his early days as a musician. He recounts the time when his teenage band invested in a six-channel mixer amplifier, marking their first significant purchase and a step up in their musical journey.

    As the band grew, so did their need for more powerful sound equipment. Unaware of the technicalities of impedance and Ohm's Law, the young band members overloaded their amplifier by connecting too many speakers. This resulted in the amplifier overheating and ultimately burning out, teaching Robert an expensive but invaluable lesson about electronics and sound engineering.

    This "Thick and Mystic Moment" served as a turning point for Robert, compelling him to educate himself on the intricacies of sound equipment. This knowledge not only prevented future mishaps but also benefited him in various aspects of his personal and professional life. The episode emphasizes the importance of learning from difficult experiences and recognizing their long-term benefits.

    Embrace the difficult moments in life as opportunities for growth and learning. These experiences, although challenging at the time, can provide knowledge and skills that benefit us for years to come.
