Enjoy the speakers and the whiskey j-wall. This thread has made my evening.

Most of us have done far worse things under the influence. Speakers don’t require child support or involve lawyers and the police.  
Basement finishing question
Not trying to state the obvious, but fInishing should not have an affect on the basement waterproofing- if it leaks prior it will leak after. If it does not leak now, you can put dry lock paint on it to further waterproof from inside but that may ...

Thanks for all the responses. Some type of powered speaker makes a ton of sense so it can be controlled from wherever the gathering is happening. Might even look at some raspberry pi amps hooked up to an interesting horn speaker. Thanks again.

Hootenanny is exactly what it is. Lots of bunks so friends just stop in and end up staying the night. Wife is a feeder so everyone eats well. UTVs, fishing, crickets and bullfrogs.........and a smattering of ACDC........Pickelball courts inside

16f4Peter White on Tidal. I have since turned it off and cannot recall album. Genre is acoustic guitar. One of my favorites. Probably listen to Earl Klugh and Peter White more than any other. I don’t like the Tidal algorithm for recommending music...

Are "vintage" DAC's worthwhile, or is this a tech that does not age well
I have 2 vintage Enlightened Audio Dacs that I really like for cd. As with most older units they have only digital coaxial and spdif inputs- no usb. Not a problem as I use them for enlightened audio transports. I have a Topping and RPI4 w/HIFIBERR...
