I just listened to my vinyl copy and I agree 100%, it’s awesome and much better than the digital release. The transients and soundstage are far superior.

It absolutely need not be. But...

About one of my old, far from perfect, vinyl LPs. I decided, a few years back, to buy the CD and listen to clean music. But guess what (you already have ;) )... The CD is crap. I don't listen to the vinyl, I don't have an in-use setup. But I listen to my own rip of the vinyl. Because it is, faults and all, close to the LP and much superior to the CD.

The issue is not vinyl v digital.

The question is some mastering thing that got done for the digital copy that is very inferior to the vinyl.

I will have to give it another go, as my first listen had me thinking 'meh'. I love Howl, Oddesy, etc.

i like it thanks for the Rec! I don't like much electronic music, I think because it often repeats too many sounds that are identical (vs music made by humans playing instruments, where even if you repeat a riff, there are minor variances)

@rhythmdevils, check out Weval's eponymous album! And @crenca, I do agree that Rival Console's earlier work is a bit looser and less polished in a good way. Them Is Us is his best single piece, imho.

there's nothing wrong with excessive chamfering

Whadya mean, it's too small? The dimensions are correct. I was just a little over-enthusiastic with the chamfering.

Really enjoying this. I’m under the weather so listening to it on bedroom system, but darn I may have to get up and fire up the main rig

Consistently great!

Around 4pm on Tuesday I noticed the sound of NPR's radio broadcast on WAMU became more chesty-sounding and boxy. On Wednesday my GF asked me if I had done anything to the stereo. So I guess we can hear when the same broadcast feed moves to a different tower!

So, at about 10am today the broadcast switched back to normal. Unfortunately the climber jumped around 5:45am. Not a happy ending.

I had no idea about this project, absolutely in my wheelhouse. Excited to check it out. Thanks!

Pretty cool Toro y Moi is on there. I will give that a listen. I love that I can listen with Bandcamp before I buy!!

That's cool.

LOVE this.
EDIT: and I'm not a fan of the growl-singing.

Im happy more people are getting to hear the Soulnote goodness!

oooh cool i can't wait to hear it!

I prefer Chuck GPT.

Apparently, ChatGPT sounds like "chat, j'ai pété" in French, which means "cat, I farted".

What was your prompt?

headphone out. Going on memory, but I'm not kidding when I say this thing is easily on par with (and in some ways exceeding) MJ3 with Auteur C.

okay, BS HD600 is also winnar winnar chicken dinnar. Upper mids a little teeny tiny bit pushed, but everything is so clean and quick it's not seemingly a FR issue. Well recorded piano is nutso good.

There’s a reason I didn’t get around to writing my review until after the amp was out of the house.

I refuse to answer your question because life would be much less interesting without variety!

A hazy IPA!

I never much like beer at all. Lager? Cut out the middle man, just pour it straight down the toilet.

Stout, yes! British brand called Mackeson. Sweet, unlike Guiness.

Cider... was my mainstay.

But now... Just tea.

that's 4 hours of music for $12 on bandcamp, LOL

also, new Bon Iver is quite nice. Feed your ears, my friends!

It's fantastic, thanks for the hint!

I found the Cinemags WAY better than the Jensen box. The Jensen box to me was hazed over in comparison. Significantly. But I use the 600 series Cinemags.

I bought a Jensen box from RD a couple years ago. I liked it, but then I got curious/stopped being lazy and did a Cinemag box. The Cinemag was better enough that I haven't used the Jensen box since.

Some have made a Lundahl version. I’ll need to look into that.

However one chooses to pay it forward, by considering their period of ownership as simply renting an item, or as care and feeding of an item, is tantamount to what makes this place so special.

That’s one way to think of it. It’s a useful perspective. But it comes with the danger of encouraging people to spend more money on a hobby instead of say, saving for old age or something more necessary. It’s too easy to talk oneself into a expensive purchase that’s either beyond one’s means or has too high an opportunity cost. @Armaegis counsels: Don’t spend more than a mortgage payment on a single item.

Sounds like a good justification for buying a more expensive house! :-)

Thanks for mentioning, on the playlist for tonight

I chickened out on buying the LP, going to try to find it locally. But I am pumped to hear it!!

Remembering back to the original Intonation festival in 2005, what a set by BSS.

Amazing album still, yeah. S-T still holds up well too. I also saw them around that time in 2004 at Coachella, was great. I’m old!

The best example of this was an AI generated pizza recipe that contained literal white glue, because someone had schiitposted about using glue to hold down ingredients to improve texture somethingsomething.

We need Sarah Connor!

Actually, @rhythmdevils, we all need a basic course in probabilistic statistics... But Sarah Connor is [s]probably[/s] more fun!

Good stuff?

All the stuff
