      JRiver v26, Windows sounds quite a bit different from v25. Less sharp, a bit more full, and perhaps a bit more depth illusion. How?

        Haven't noticed anything myself (not that I was looking for it). I think I might notice as I have a thing against sibilance.

        Living in Nashville, it's very strange seeing the Titans getting national attention. I'm so used to them being entirely overlooked.

        Telluride is in the opposite corner of the state from me. North of Denver does not get nearly as cold as those places above.

      I shed a lot of tears while watching the Crown episode Aberfan. I visited Abertillery, where my grand dad was born and it looked so similar.

      Glad I stuck with Jriver, Roon now $700 lifetime. SQ just a hair better with Jriver in my setups. Roon UI pretty sweet though.

        Ouch. But if you're willing to pay $500 for a lifetime license you'll be willing to pay $700. I'm also a JRiver user since the days of Jukebox. It's surprising how many people complain each year about a $20 upgrade price to the next version. Roon is in for some complaints from the peanut gallery seats.

        If you want a burger just eat a damn burger. If this is flexible then what's the point of being so specific as trying to find something that is just like a burger yet not a burger?

        Make it out of lean, grass fed beef. Is this an environmental thing or a health thing or what? If the former then rest easy, curbing meat consumption is statistically worthless for helping the environment when you examine the science. If the latter one burger now and then isn't going to kill you.

        I like the Impossible better than Beyond (but not Burger King's). TJ's Quinoa Cowboy burgers are excellent. The kids like the original Boca, and the Quorn breaded "chicken" patties (especially the spicy).

        I don't have time to watch TV these days, but I'll add it to my queue. I'm not generally a fan of country, but there are some nuggets that I love. I highly recommend the Revisionist History podcast episode on Bobby Braddock, "The King of Tears". Great stuff.

        82F is nearly 28C. That is about 2C hotter than comfort for me, and my comfort level is 5 to 10 C degrees higher than many in the world.

        It’s just rebranding of “mastered for iTunes”. They kinda have to do it since iTunes is biting the dust.

        Just renamed MFiT. Some of the masters have been significant improvements in DR over CD/streaming masters so pick your poison. 256kbps AAC isn't lossless but it ain't bad.
