Biodegraded

I've got an og one back in England, @Biodegraded, along with a 33 pre + 2 pairs of 57s, one needing fundamental repairs, the other pair to be shipped to me here in the US this winter.

Just hope they don't become glorified cat scratchers...

Ooo - here's an OG not far from me:

It looks like it's in great cosmetic condition @Biodegraded

Do it!

Not so sure aboot the Fraser river one...

It's a shame Regina doesn't have a team:

Embrace the hard sounds good to me. Relax and enjoy

Love the carpet

maaaaybe something with the Schiit Urd with your streamer of choice connected? or there's a few AIO from Simaudio on the Canadian side of things. Also a Bryston integrated if you can find one with the dac card (I have a B60 with dac and phono)

@Armaegis nah, I'll shoehorn a CDP & streamer into this: https://vancouver.craigslist.org/van/eld/d/vancouver-transonic-model-turntable-am/7771922870.html

I use color coded dots. it isn't perfect, but it helps match the gear to the power supply brick.

^ Doesn't matter - free fancy hotel stay, helicopter ride, guided outdoor stuff... Time might be a fallible construct, but for Citizen to provide junkets like this to bloggers it must be insanely profitable!

Same with motorcycle and car journalists. Lots of lovely perks.

Could not read beyond the first paragraph, utter tripe and as already has been said it doesn‘t matter whether it is audio, watches, cars or other stuff which is prone to induce a boner with some folks

One term at university, I developed severe writer’s block. It affected only one course. (My others had exams.) The important information is what cured it: the university required all undergrads in my department to take a 300-level writing course. The goal was to teach students to write simply and clearly for an educated lay audience. It was one of the three most-useful courses I’ve ever taken.

I like it when stuff comes already dust loaded: saves me several years.

Looks like the ad is gone already. What did we miss?

@Armaegis a whole bunch of random speakers & speaker drivers. And dust.

Yeah, would've been helpful if the band(s) they were in had been listed beside their name.

Yes, band names would have been nice.

Correction: Stevie Nicks turned 76 today.

Or when there are too many devices connected to your network?

As (ex-)audiophiles go, I count myself as fairly objective, and yes, I absolutely believe that, unless something changes them, bits are bits. But, right from the off, it seemed absurd to claim that this makes all dacs sound the same. Let's take the blindingly-bloody-obvious: the second letter, dAc. Didn't those idiots ever notice that they have analogue circuitry and output? That's only what the things are *for!*

This dude has talent. Not just trolling SBAF/ASR but he's gone with the hat-trick with Head-Fi as well. This guy has covered the entire multi-verse of trying to find the exact combination to defeat Thanos and find auditory bliss.

Vali3 does seem pretty good.

I'll be interested to read (3 years from now) in some tech journal why getting lossless on Spotify was such a difficult task.

Like I have said the Spotify audience at large could care less about lossless. It is just our minute sliver of the market that gives a crap.

That's a socially acceptable way to be a cheap date :)

Only here.

What's that thing where people wave around a bunch of burning sage? Supposedly originating in native-American lore, I think.

Flossing --- or something like that.

Anyway... Sage Against The Machine... Love it :D

Golden Hair live is face melting...

I love this. SOAD too! Never could afford festival tickets though. Let alone international travel.

Definitely an interesting choice. Not what I would expect either, but they are still a great band. Slipknot and SOAD though...just wow. That is going to be a pretty great festival.

My momma always told me...:)

I knew going out to salsa dance nightclubs was good for my health

Sounds good! Maybe not so good for those with epilepsy?
