ATCO sounds better. MOFI pressings can be overrated. And overpriced.

....rear cover art of this RE-release on 180gram, and a side vibe shot of the 2nd floor system.

Hello and happy Sunday afternoon to all. Ok, finally a chance to continue a little spinning of vinyl. Got this going right now....

That is a Ray gun made by the artist Nelles ( so it’s fine art ) https://www.nellesstudios.com/

Just added the last touches on the system. Not much, but it works for now and sounds great.

In between vinyl sessions I made maple syrup. 10 gallons of sap to make 1 pint of sweet goodness! 😋

I'm done with cds 💿 I don't mind buying new all analog new vinyl for $60 Unless the OG sounds better or I can't find vintage at a fair price

I've been doing the maple syrup thing for 3 years and the first tap is light in color and by the time the season is done it turn darker as I go. This year it's sweetest of all. And what's so cool is I planted the maple trees 25 years ago.

Who knows, maybe it was for the best and a better chance will come along. 😉

Come down off your throne And leave your body alone Somebody must change You are the reason I've been waiting Somebody holds the key Well, I'm near the end and I just ain't got the time Oh-oh, and I'm wasted and can't find my way home Come down on your own And leave that money at home Somebody has changed You are the reason I've been waiting so long Somebody holds the key Well, I'm near the end and I just ain't got the time Oh-oh, and I'm wasted and can't find my way home Well I can't find my way home But I can't find my way home But I can't find my way home But I can't find my way home No, no No, I can't find my way home And I ain't done nothing wrong But I can't find my way home Steve Winwood

Kind of reminds me of this Disintegrator Ray gun from the 50's.

He has a couple of them. The other one is much more modernized in my opinion. I happened across this one day while surfing the internet and had to have it. I also have a Varon-T disruptor for all of you Star Trek nerds out there. All I need now is an android with a positronic brain. 😉

It’s more in the style (but updated) of the Buck Roger’s ray gun — but as I mentioned in my previous post that this one is an art piece

Same here in europe , the continuing actual hype of vinyl new or sec. hand has pushed prices into outrageously high regions, this is why I´ve decided, from case to case, to purchase a cd instead.

Nice album. Nicer system setup!

Leftovers are great if you add something to the meal the next couple days. Center cut chops baked in Lipton Onion Soup, added parmesan and the bake and eat bread today.

Incoming...will be here on Tuesday. 😃 BTW...since nobody guessed. The rings are the ones that Klipsch puts inside the speakers to support the grills during shipping. I like repurposing when I can.

Thank you for the compliment BTW. New house and unfortunately being out of work for multiple surgeries didn't help the bankroll. So until I can step it up, this will do. Back to work so the money train is rolling again.

Hey...I had to at least try. We are talking tree ambrosia here.

Guinness, Stout, Harp beers! Happy Saint Patrick's Day...🍀

Making some noise outside for St. Patrick’s day.

believe it or not. There are people in the world who do not know there is a difference in maple syrup. I had this conversations with Kara over are Friendly's over breakfast a few days ago. She is the shift manager there. I was in a local cooperative market. I had a taste test a few years back. Laughed when I seen them offering plastic spoons of syrup. Anyhow, I had some. I stopped laughing. I have since become serious about my maple syrup. Grats on your process. 3 jars. Nice! G.

When doing the spec for cinema, We used them as ceiling speakers....Not an issue if you use a correct mount. I use KPT-1200M for my ATMOS tops.

I use mine in the Mill room....Has to get over the SPL of the mill....I will get a pic later.

Here is a funny side note. If you look at the little stand that holds up the front of the ray gun you will see two little rubber sticky rings bracing the legs. I'll give you three guesses where those little protective rubber rings came from. 🤪

Sure is! Thank you for noticing. I almost put the Rush bobbleheads up there but my better half put the kibosh on that idea.

Not a problem & we were talking Heritage before you got those a couple weeks ago. Now... the laser gun? Looks like one from an animates series? I'm scheduled tentatively for surgery the 28th, good luck with yours man!

Dayton Audio HTA200, Schiit Mani 2 Pre and a Schiit Loki Mini+. The table is the Fluance RT85. All this two a pair of Heresy IV's. It really does sound amazing for what it is. I'm sure it will improve as the speakers break in. I've had them for only a week.

Looks nice! What amp, also what phaser is that?

This year I made 3 pints. I boiled 5 gallons each weekend the last 3 weekends. 15 total gallons from 4 trees.

Not fair...how about a trade? Your syrup for my Wife's bosses honey? Lol

Yes, from the jar to my pancakes! 😂

I just listened to that about an hour ago!!!

Do you ship??? 😁

You’re probably due for an oil change.

Not sure if this is real or not...but there are folks out there that are "proving" that the vaccine stops the "x" version of the bug. But it does nothing to stop the "Y" version of the bug...and in fact, it blocks your natural antibodies from doing their job and trying to stop "Y". Thus, letting "Y" through with no resistance. This could be VERY BAD for folks, as this will never leave your body. I believe this report but hope they are wrong. I don't take Flu vaccines ..or otherwise. I won't and don't worry about a bug with a 98% or higher recovery and survival rate. 98% chance I will be fine or 50% chance the drug will be "OK". As for hospitals and their ICU bed count...One would think that with ALL the folks needing ICU due to the bug, the hospitals would INCRESS the number of ICU beds....Looking at Indiana...and just looking at the amount of beds used, Most hospitals are at 60% full. (about avg for now). Most are at the same for ICU beds. However, I can not find anywhere that states that they added more ICU beds at any local hospital. I may just not be able to find it. It has been over a year, someone surley looked at this. I think that by not adding beds, the media can say, "we are running out of icu beds" when in fact, they never added more beds to handle the issue. Again, I can not prove this, but it sure looks that way. Not to mention the extra covid money each patient earns the hospitals. A year in, it looks more like milking the covid *** than anything.

...short and round guy size? Glad you like it...I love to listen to Jim tell stories.
