This will be my last post here for about a year I think.
Finished one room now, only 1/4 of the stuff was buying what I already have for a second time... thanks a-*#les.
My HDMI to the screen is too short now.
So I put the pc on top of a couple fufu landscaping bricks temporarily, ran the cable straight out of the top without the cover to get it to reach!
Sub's hooked up for thirty Hz and under, it has thumped a little.

@MicroMara you had me do a double take playing that Mother's Finest!!

The 15 & the 16 Accords could start with that physical key next to the ignition, the 15 had a place to insert it.
This is an 18 Acura RDX, fob battery must be totally dead, old fashioned key will only unlock and lock the doors to how they're set up. Duracell was only a few months old, not keeping it near the wifi in the BR at night anymore.
Sure my neighbor would have run me the 4 miles to the crossroads if I asked. Not sure kroger has that cr2032 battery though. I have what I need here now.
I've been going 10 miles further and saving almost 15% at the foodlion. More time, less $. NObody has good beef around here so that doesn't gauge my loyalties anymore. I see cows everywhere though, thinking deep freezer in my future! Will ask questions when I'm ready with that!

Sound quality improved today!
80% wool at a much better price than 100% would have been.
1/4" pad with 1" rug on top, will cut some of the pad scraps to level the 301s out again.
So funny to think what 301 used to signify in a speaker to me when I was 20 something😂

The battery in my key fob died today.
I did not find a way to get my ride started with that key that comes in it so I'm stuck again.
Nothing in the manual, piece of plastic put in the dash where it could have been for the previous years model. Yikes, prime did come in handy with more than movies and tv shows. Got next day delivery for this.

Just recently acquired a turntable - after a very long time without one.
Decided on an Audio-technica AT-LP5X
Based on reviews, classed as a "best under $500"
Direct drive, manual.
Looking to add an ATVM95ML
Any experience with this cartridge?
I had the predecessor of that one for a little while. The ATLP-5.
It would not allow me to hook it up to a preamp like it stated it would. Maybe the newer model corrects that.
Not that particular cart, but it's a Microline and that is great!
They operate with less weight because it fits the record groove better, don't wear out the LP like some rounded types actually do.
I've preferred that brand for decades because of the clear separation of the high end, the clean bass and all around tonal qualities of Audio Technica.
& I loved the chunky look of the ATLP-5!

usps is baaaaad, m'kay?
They mark stuff as delivered when it is not delivered! Like yesterday here! And a dozen times before.
* My doorbell takes videos of any & all activity on the second hundred feet of my drive up here!
no notifications, No video = nobody was here.
They forged my signature once a couple years ago when I was in the ghettos of a sc swamp!
That forgery was listed as an alias when I closed on my home!! I don't have aliases.
Not only baaaad but criminal.
No, they're exempt but I did get my $300 back.
"There's no Place Like Home!" huh Dave?
Updraft before the storm can be pretty bad, then you know what's coming!
Glad you only got rocked and not rolled!

"pulled out" some more that I've got and miss. Been over a few hours today, so not entirely coherent... but totally rock!
RIP
They're different now but UFO's still got it as of this in 2011:

Pulled the pro speakers out a little the other day. The 1/4" felt pad arrived for the rug that's not here yet, put it down.
Mids to lows seem more solid, just a little, the sound absorption brought the separation and "presence" into distinction.
Pulled the sub into the mix, low pass at 36 then 32Hz now 30. Vol at -24 up from -38 as before. Listening levels have gone up. Made it past the bass interruption, Xanadu is on and my music is more like normal, except better now!
Love the way the mids & highs emulate a LaScala!

Like 4 ohm K-48s!!
Guys I wasn't going for that punch line & throwing it at y'all with that well known video.
It was Jack's detailed what, how & why that I thought fit in with prior comment on the right that got me here.

We're not far from coliseums and big cats right now. God Help Them.
I've heard some of the hymns he and his groups did.
Atlanta Rhythm Section did a lot, but in the South back then it was more prevalent than now.

OK @ClaudeJ1 Think I comprehend you a little more now having good KP-301s in a small environment.
Now just need Danleys, love my cheapo hybrid monos with the rusky tubes!

That whole LP is alright!
I put it in your LP thread a few years ago when I got it through the ultrasound and found it was a good listen!

Hey now be careful guys... I've seen @ClaudeJ1 as he's spoken with experience and with proof to back it up.
I think he might be holdin' back right now...

Went from 1500 RPM cruising (`73 Charger just purring down the road doing 90mph)
To three grand in a truck getting on the highway.
Now let's get to the dragstrip with that V-8 350 Vega with the big slicks on the back end!
Have come up with almost all of AC/DCs best LP live after msft wiped all my bookmarks from my rig, most were the truth about that germ )*&%#%re from a couple years ago.
Ignorance from someone in diapers back then is the only way I could see that rage was superimposed over the vid. Maybe they think the music is angry? Nope not this band! These guys were not at all about that!

That's good! I'd steer clear of snakes that look like those.
Now a Chinese Water Dragon? He was sooo cool until the day he got out of his aquarium and could run 30mph+ on his back legs around that house!
They aren't herbivores either! Have teeth like you'd expect from a dragon. You have to buy little white mice for them to hunt and eat!
