McIntosh MC3500 Vacuum Tube Amplifier Mk II

The original MC3500 was used to power the sound system at Woodstock, among many other legendary music events. First dreamed up at the festival's 50th anniversary and more than two years in development, its successor has arrived. The 350-Watt monoblock amp is powered by eight EL509S high-power vacuum tubes, chosen for their similarity to the 6LQ6 "sweep tubes" of the original. It offers modern conveniences like a Power Guard Screen Grid Sensor to keep the vacuum tubes operating at safe levels, a Sentry Monitor to watch over output levels, and Solid Cinch speaker binding posts. Its machined aluminum front panel was given a bead blast finish and gold anodizing to better match the original, this time with more ergonomic, integrated handles to make moving the 121-pound beast less of a chore.

Trashie

Trashie's Take Back Bag is the easiest way to get rid of clothing and other textiles you do not need anymore. Simply buy a bag (or a bundle of them) fill it up, mail it back, and Trashie will ensure those items never make it to landfills, rerouting them to third-party retailers Trashie individually vets for compatibility. That means your old T-shirt, depending on its condition, could end up going to someone in need or being broken down to create carpet padding or pet bed filling, among other things. You earn exactly $30 in TrashieCash for each bag you send back, which you can redeem for deals — direct cash equivalent or a certain percentage off — to buy yourself new things from your favorite brands.
