| If aftermarket premium power cords work, why won’t short runs of premium XLR cables work? See the power cord discussion (posted on the Galen Carol website) by Caelin Gabriel of Shunyata Research. It addresses a few of the widely held beliefs and assumptions about power cords. I found it helpful. I’m not clear on your question re PCs vs... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Last evening from Tidal...Summer McKane's "Night Blooming Cereus"GREAT sonics. The music is a bit inconsistent. Some of it "nice" but boring. Other bits are a lot more engaging. Worth checking out, especially for any fans of "post-rock" (e.g.,... | |

| What are you streaming tonight? Don't do it, U ! You don't have to post every hour or even every day. Save it for something extraordinary you've listened to. I'm heartened by your "obsessive listening" (there're are others out there!) even if tastes are not always identical.... | |
| Favorite musician(s) @roxy54 Ha...was typing while you posted mentioning "Time On Earth". Agree whole-heartedly. Silent House is a grammy-deserving song except that would do a disservice to it! I also agree with your assessment of Temple of Low Men. A great and of... | |
