    i bought a shirt. I’ve worn it twice. It’s already tight around the mid-section. I’m either getting fatter by the minute or someone has replaced all the size labels on my clothes. 

    Don’t laugh ... I bought a Bomber jacket on line.  I like my coats loose, so i ordered a 2XL.  I get the coat and put it on and it’s skin tight and I can barely zip it up.  I look at the label and it’s a regular old Large.  I contact the vendor and tell them that they sent the wrong size. They email me back and say that they’ve investigated the matter and the coat is in fact a 2XL with a “L” label.  

    I call BS and they’re refunding my money + the $19.99 mail cost for return shipping. They want me to order another jacket; but i went to a military surplus store and bought a flight jacket. 

    Moral of the story ... I’m not getting fatter, my clothes are suddenly just mislabeled.  What a relief, i thought i was going to have to change my diet and cut back on the cold beer.

     

    I am pretty sure there is a cloths label changing bandit going around..  I really think he made an unwelcome visit to my closet recently...  I'm not happy at all....  😕

  2. I just saw this thread and I have not gone through all the pages so I am sure this movie has been said many times,

     

    But currently I would have to say the movie 'Mad Max Fury Road' would have to be right up there with the best of them in regards to eye and ear candy.. some amazing visual scenes loaded with exceptional sound to show case your systemThe movie itself for me is a great one also.

    I am listening to 'Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers' now, not on vinyl however 😟.  I have never heard of this band unil now, I am very new to Jazz, very new to music really in the sense of appreciation,  but I realy like the sound of the tracks I have listened to so far.  I find them to be........  very chilled...  😎😎😎

  4. Listening to the B side of this Jazz album, loving the music, loving the sound.  I have never really listened to Jazz before but I am so much appreciating the music now.

    I have said before that I am a home theatre type of guy that is now loving listening to vinyl.

    I would like to thank a well respected person on this forum for directing me to this thread and all of you whom have inspired me from your posts and pictures here to get back into vinyl.

    I got to go... I can hear the popcorn popping now...  😀

  6. Recently I have been listening a lot of 2 songs both by female vocals,

     

    These are, in no particular order,

     

    • Donna Summer - song 'I Feel Love'. 
    • Shannon - song 'let the music play'

     

    To me both have amazing vocals.

     

    If you listen to it and/if you know the songs I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

     

     

  7. I currently have a Yamaha receiver so I run YPAO not Audyssey.

     

    I do use YPAO simply because I feel I don't know enough not to use it. 

     

    My personal preference is setting Dynamic EQ off.  For movies my personal preference is 'standard' mode. For music, the mode I have it on could vary depending on how it sounds to me.

    Totally agree.  Tried many and was never satisfied till I used a center identical to L/R's.  But ... have seen good reviews (never heard one) on the RC-7. Dual 8" woofers with a 1.75" horn driver ... last of the real center speakers ... no longer made; replaced by "smaller" stuff. :( 

    I am lucky enough to own a RC-7.  To me it compliments my RF-35's very nice to complete my front stage excluding my SVS PB-1000.

     

    With my RC-7 I cannot see myself ever giving up on it, if anything it will give up on me first.

  9. I can not believe how much I am enjoying the whole turntable thing.

    I dont have much of a collection at the moment of vinyl, however what I do have i was in my late teens when I got most of them and I didn't handle them with too much care at that time unfortunately. Now I am treating them with so much care it is unreal. Amazing how I haven't put on white gloves on yet when handling them.  lol

    However there was one I got as a gift and I did not give it much attention at the time.  I was given the vinyl pretty much when it was first released.  As it did not get much play time then, it is in immaculate condition and right now I have replayed it like 10 times already as to me it sounds phenomenal.  such clear and beautiful sound.  This record is well over 20 years old, I just cleaned the record, cleaned the stylus and had the record spinning with the stylus on it and wow. The picture is of this vinyl.

    If you ask me the after listening to this, what I am hearing right now, in my room with my gear the analog vs digital debate is a real one.

  10. thank you all so much for your kind words, stories shared and reactions.

     

    I am so happy I made the leap, again to vinyl from decades of a TT being absend in my setup.  To me when playing music there is nothing like actually seeing the souce spinning around ona TT with a stylus on it and then hearing it the music on your speakers.  I think it's fantastic.  ☝️

     

    I just need to buy a stylus brush to clean the needle.  I have what I need to clean the records.
