    Wilson Audios Duette crossover makeover?

    Have to say that first plot was meh, from Wilson. I guess maybe ProArc fans might like it?

    Why are audio website stores getting so bad?

    I'm not sure of any other way to put it. They're fucking TRASH to navigate. And it's like one by one they keep all going that way. Parts Express - I have to use google to find something on it. ABSOLUTE SHIT. Parts Connexion - Banners and shit take up the whole page and you can't easily...

    Thor: Love & Thunder

    I had the horrible misfortune thinking this could be an ok thing to watch while taking care of someone, as some filler. When the best part of your entire movie is a cameo by Melissa McCarthy...

    Ordering a Bokrand Tonearm

    So I know there are a lot of fans out there but that doesn't change the fact that you won't get your tonearm. I've emailed Alfred numerous times and given an ample wait time past the expected time (I ordered Nov 2020). I've gotten replies that it'll be sent out etc. None of that is true. At this...

    Cable Teaser - The King of Tinned Copper

    6awg from me vs common 12awg. This is part of the cable set I'm going to make available. It requires a special treatment to make it viable for assembly. I've come to appreciate the wisdom of using tinned copper for its virtues on sound. It's not "exotic" per-se but it most certainly is in...

    Has being an audiophile changed the way you view the quality of other things?

    So, the question is has being an audiophile changed how you feel the quality of other things in your life? I believe I was quality obsessed before I became an audiophile, and it drove me to seek higher quality audio. In fact I argued with my electronics teacher who liked Bose, when I was in...

    Metal Mats

    So I originally wrote this all up thinking Matej would like to post it on Mono & Stereo, as he posted my last mini review (I kinda like writing a bit on the "small" stuff because it seems like I spend forever on different things without enough research-able content to come to quicker...

    Favorite pillow?

    So what's your favorite pillow? I'm between pillows right now... ha. I use one but the most comfortable I've but my head on seems to also make me sleep poor for unknown reasons now. Maybe I don't like latex (I don't get skin irritation to it though or anything like that), I'm not sure. But I...

    What do you use for a desk chair?

    I'm curious what everyone uses. Like many I've been doing the work at home. I even made a new computer that I'm kind of deciding multiple monitor setup on. But my temp desk that can fit a full desktop with larger monitor is a dining room table. It's unsustainable, for my ass. A desk and chair is...

    Auto Insurance?

    Hey guys, What do you recommend? I've been thinking I should change mine as I know it's not great. Do you go with an insurance agent/place/thing locally? Just sign up online? As to what company is better I have no idea. No one rates any company particularly well when it comes to reviews. But...

    How is Yelp not legally dissolved yet?

    As if their extremely predatory tactics where not bad enough... Now they're stopping collecting free money in the name of other people, because, surprise, backlash. And a bonus complaint with funny anecdotal stories.

    Spectrum ditches security business, leaves hordes of dead electronics

    https://www.theverge.com/2020/1/13/21063596/spectrum-home-security-discontinued-service-charter-cable-cost-refund To me it'd make sense to charge them for the amount of e-waste they are producing. Spectrum (Charter) is evil in nature, we all know it... And they continue to uphold that reputation.

    Anyone heard Jean Maurer?

    They've been around awhile I guess, but not common outside of Europe I guess? I enjoy watching their video of building. Their choices with some things are interesting, and they make everything in-house.

    Togo - Streaming on Disney+ Dec. 20th

    This looks great. I hope Disney will put out good content. It doesn’t have that cheap feel some streaming things do.

    White/Blue headlights are a menace.

    I think they’re the worst thing to happen to cars, surpassing auto-off when stopped in traffic and many other things. They only give you the illusion of seeing more. But what they really do blind the hell out of everyone. Even when they’re not direct, they do weird flickering things all the...

    Cartrdige shim trick anyone?

    Do any of you use something between your headshell and cartridge? I use cardboard from electronic part reels, but most probably don't have that. It's about the same as a cereal box. The reason to do this is because your cartridge and headshell are not perfectly machined to go together. They're...

    Not a good year to buy Macbook

    At least if you ever put anything on it you wouldn’t want to lose... or mind paying to replace it.

    Adding The Swarm/DEBRA System to a CH & Magico M3 stereo.

    A friend that Mike L. introduced me to (we’ll just call him V) was showing me some changes to his stereo after Stirling Trayle came and did his magic. The M3's placement was without a doubt the best, by far. It was very apparent when they were locked in just right. He did a bunch of other stuff...

    What's Killing Us: Ti02

    (I’ve been meaning to make this point for awhile. Hopefully they’ll get easier as I go. The idea was given to me by someone I don’t like a lot, but I can’t argue it’s a fun name for a series of segments.) This topic is, to me, rather important. A few of you might be aware of Titanium Dioxide...

    Is Google too big?

    Hey everyone... I'm hoping the maturity I've seen on this board the last year will keep this topic from spiraling too fast. I suspect that it will probably get locked, and I encourage that, actually. My intent is simply to inform people about what Google is doing, not discuss the topics in it...

    Apple, why do you make it so hard for me to appreciate you???

    As my disdain for Windows 10 grows, and my appreciation for the Apple aesthetic grows... They continue down a dark path that makes me also hate their guts. They're dirty low down scum bags when it comes to any sort of repair/warranty work. And they continually blow my mind at how stupid they are...

    33CX vs SAX

    Opinions, are the 33CX any good? I know they are not as valuable, but are they any good?

    Steve Jobs would fire swaths of people at Apple if he were still around

    So I've been enjoying my iPhone XS Max, but given that it is a smartphone, a mini computer, it's severely limited. First it was the fact that I can't use any head phones I like. True they sell an adapter, but does it work? NO. Can I plug it into stereo equipment and using it as a mobile source...

    Damn. Best thing since Stranger Things. (which I haven't watched past season 1 because it is too good to soil) It's painful to have to wait for the next season.

    Mobile problem with viewing pictures

    When I am on mobile I can post, do conversations, basically everything, except view attached photos. It tells me I am not logged in - and obviously I am. I don’t recall my password off hand since I had to make it something not like any other password I have, per a few hack attempts. Anyways...

    Boots

    Anyone else like boots? I'm needing another pair. Oh what do I get? My problem is that sooo many manufacturers only stay within sizes that women would also order or something? I'm size 14, not terribly unique, and yet it's a pain. The boots I've been wanting since my last pair went out on my...
