26° this morning. Weatherman is talking an inch or two of....snow. Oh well.

The past two days are the first time this year we have really really needed the furnace running. It was 20° when I put the kids on the bus this morning. We got our first sign of snow yesterday morning as well with a teeny bit of frozen precipitation. Way later for this sort of thing than normal.

Back to the Great First Record remark above. In my lifetime of Rock listening I think Van Halen's first LP is phenomenal, Boston's first is right up there, but it was soft-rock. Today, after the Pantera: Baba Yaga!

SOLD. THANK YOU

gonna return it and make them whole...

First frost way earlier than average here. But maybe that's why its an average.

My prices havent changed, since ever. Just sayin'.

mellow tonight:

We got to 50 and will all this week. Until the weekend, heck I broke out the wool already and the heat ran early this morning set on 60.

Nothing else to report aside from the fact it's COLD out here w/highs in the 40's.

Hot sauce ready for distribution. The chile is a white moruga, a pale whitish yellow fruit with a nice flavor and medium to medium high heat. The usual prices and sizes available. PM for orders and details.

Only a few pair ever made.

What time is dinner?

I guess I won the lottery, its mine now.

'ceptin' Thanksgiving is for giving Thanks, not gifts

And if you had the precip I've got here today you'd have a half foot of snow right now. 43 now don't think it will go higher, but 60 is nice in my listening zone. Don't even know if you wanna know who's been jammin' here besides Pantera today!

Thirty's right now here. That's nuts. Alllllll week "they" say.

Good Man My wife used to work at Costco..they make plenty of money..but still. They may tell you forget about it when you go back. Who knows? They may say "Merry Christmas".

The 3M 300LSE is the way to go. Sticks well and can still peel off if need be. I tested a piece of uncleaned cloth last night and it stuck together very well.

I’ve had a Bar 48 sound bar for just over 2 years. One of my side speakers just stopped working (like won’t even come in). I think I need to replace it. How do you do that? Doesn’t seem to be an option on the website. Thanks!!

I had considered this. I've been noodling selling a revised embodiment of this amplifier and, to know how it behaves over a range of operating conditions becomes an issue. The performance with a tube rectifier from 110 to 125VAC on the primary is largely unaffected based on what I've measured. So, what's unaffected mean? Power v. %THD at 20, 500, 1,000, 5000, 10000Hz similar, FFT of components similar, sound same.

And?.......you're gonna be honest and square things up with them?

1. Local piano mover is the only way to fly. They are trained, in shape, have the proper equipment, and have proper insurance. We even reimburse this expense up to $500. Your typical freight company who offers white glove can’t do it. Dealers aren’t typically going to send an army of four people to move them unless the installation is very easy. Liability and risk of moving these things where stairs or other obstacles are involved is just too high. Letting us pay you to hire a local piano mover is the best solution. 2. last I checked they are still making 75th on demand. They did not fill up all the allocated spots. That may have changed very recently but I doubt it. Most of my guys are on a budget and the special editions are harder to move or else I would have stocked some. I do have the walnuts in stock. Zero wait. But I think I can still get some 75th.

I got a Thanksgiving diner ribeye roast from Costco... about $225 worth of meat. so happy and ready to enjoy, then I realized after getting home that the meat was mislabeled...

Go Away

It’s only the 5th inflation thread in the last 6 months, which doesn’t include off topic inflation related posts in threads like garage sale. They all went off the rails in less than a day. Trying to figure out what a Catholic family who apparently has English as a second language has to do with inflation or why and even mid-term elections on gas prices. so food prices have been stable for several years there, it’s just resturant prices that are completely out of whack?

I suspect it has a shelf life of about 24 hours, give or take...

The more rocker's & semi-rockers the better imo. Wait, where are my George Benson lp's. Oh yea, under "B." 😂 @oldtimer is STILL kickin! Miss you brother! Kinda. 😂

I can't speak to lacquers but I can share my experience. I veneered my La Scalas in Sapele and finished them with Rubio Monocoat "Clear". The Rubio finish is quite matte. Good luck with your project!

Some silver before bedtime:

Cool.... so now, we can have rats in the bleachers screaming out FREE-BIRDDDDDDDD!!! Though they may take editorial license and instead, squeal out FREE RATTTTTTTTT!

It is a very nice looking amp. GLWS…..

Wow, very nicely laid out circuit. A same to hide it!

That almost looks like goldmines, James bond and pushy galore...

I got a new water pistol...

Thats a lot of theatrics! Wanted some bass looked around and found the Dr had it goin' on again. Smoky club on the wrong side of the big city.... Yea seen the movies and it probably sounded like this Alright @MicroMara get your ears on!

Today I got a pair of 1983 Heresy 1 speakers ...

Well, the music stopped. Can't have that now. Raining all day, getting darker had to flip the light on. "Pretzel Logic" and "Katy Lied" are on this one! Got one left, steaming is easy in the wave!

This Sunfire Theater Grand TGA-7400 7 Channel Amplifier is in great condition and can produce 400 watts rms per channel into 8 ohms and 800 watts rms into 4 ohms. $950 OBO

Thought it was a good discussion and helpful to the OP Oh well; the Klipsch Gestapo killed it (again). Really getting very tired of this "new approach."

There are other forums where you can freely discuss what you like to do to speakers you own without it being frowned upon. Many have migrated.

Heading there Sun for the week with a new set of Michelin Pilot Sports on the STi 🤘

Good old reliable 300ZX

I heard from a few people they need a few hundred hrs to sound best , but I'm really impressed from what I'm hearing compared to older models . Yes just a vinyl 2nd system Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sorry to hear that. Last year I was lined out to buy a V Strom 1000, but started have major dizzy attacks, even laying down. Luckily that went away. The engine is a part of the frame Stock photo of the 1200s model. i raced Daytona 2 times. 2005 I started last and finished 4th. 2006 I won. It was Club racing. I raced WERA and AHRMA. I raced BOT (Battle of the Twins) on an SV650, such a great bike. The engine on the VStrom is a tuned differently same enging as the SV. I like the thump of the twin.

Du to the power to weight ratio, I will ride it like I have skin in the game. 🤓 I was spat off from a highside when I was too aggressive with the throttle during a race. Thank goodness for runoff. me being stalked by 2 Ducs at Daytona.

Weird fact…..when I knew I was to do some serious listening to speakers, I avoided loud noises. I didn’t listen to the radio to work. Kept the windows closed in my car and got up before I wife would bark out orders on what I needed to do. I wanted my ears fresh. Does anyone else do that? Or is it just a weird chief bonehead thing?
