  Revisiting Aretha's "Amazing Grace - The Complete Recordings" today after a year+ and just blown away.

    Sound is killer for a live recording, but it's the incredible backing performances from an amateur church band/choir that are so astonishing. The "Complete" is much better than the original 1972 record as it preserves the original performance sequence. It's on Spotify and Tidal to check out. There's also a great documentary film if you get intrigued.

    Yeah, sorry if you thought it was a callout for community support. Sassy Dylan lyric from a song he’s been playing every night on the just-ended US fall tour.

    @yotacowboy - the stereo serves as TV output as well. My 22yo son wanted to watch a movie with his gf when we were away. Even with help he just could not get it to fire up (he had changed some inputs). Ended up turning up the in-TV speakers which had never been used. And he was just fine with the resulting sound.

    My wife enjoys music (but taps out at Sun Ra) and likes how the rig sounds but she would NEVER have set something like this up on her own. Takes a special kind of weirdo.

    @kr4star: Awesome input, thank you. The voice of experience is exactly what I was looking for :) It's not local so an audition is probably off the table. I'll wait for a better opportunity.

    I agree that a 45 shouldn’t be used for any speaker with a complex crossover, it’ll sound especially wimpy.
