Reliable Digital Music Storage
I got another 4 CDs today, Sunday is a slow day.  All the incremental sync to all the destinations can be a big job.  I've tried to set up an off site archive but no one else is interested in helping me.  I avoid the Cloud since I value my pri... 
Reliable Digital Music Storage
@kijanki That was very informative, thank you.  I have my archive on three NAS, and I assume that if any one dies I can restore from any one to any other.   Both of your notes are very helpful.  I did get my 2TB SSD USB drive and I'll start using ... 
Religious music for less than devout
@djones51It It would not be my place to attack  anyone or quantify their piety by my standards.  @jafreeman In any society where voluntary charity is displaced by onerous taxes and entitlement programs, where the state becomes the primary donor of... 
Religious music for less than devout
Since I started this thread please let me make the clear distinction between “Religious Music For the Less Than Devout” and “Anti-Religious Music That Parodies or Attacks Piety.” Those who evidently feel the need for their own anti-theist thread... 
Amp Section for New Pair of Magenpan 3.7i
One can argue that women's breasts are non-essential for human reproduction when the bottle option is available; or that the T-Rex's vestigial arms served no use. In the same way modern power amps need no meters or LEDs on the front.But I ... 
Linda Ronstadt
I would like to thank @bdp24 for recommending the Linda Ronstadt documentary. On your suggestion I ordered a copy, watched it today and thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you  
Reliable Digital Music Storage
Does your Marantz CD 67 have any digital storage?  If it has a hard drive from 1997 I suspect I might have some related concerns.  I have a performing artist I like.  I own 17 of his CDs.  Last night I made a directory under his name and copied ...

Religious music for less than devout
If God created camels He has a sense of humor. Perhaps camels also say that about us. If God exemplifies the perfection of all virtues, and a healthy sense of humor is a virtue, then ...Among any groups of monastics or religious I would say look f... 
Classe CAM 350 monoblock vs Classe CAM-400 or Bryston 4B3
I have been having fun with my Magtech since about 9am, my cleaning lady was here today and we have similar taste in music, she actually likes her music a little louder than I do.  She is incapable of sitting and critically listening to music, she... 
Religious music for less than devout
I wanted to mention a source I greatly enjoy. There is a church named “Church of Christ” that has as one of it’s teachings that liturgical music must be A Cappella. Then they can play a musical instrument later on in the day, just not at church.... 
How do you sort your LPs?
I no longer own any LPs and my CDs are ripped upon arrival then go to storage however I still face many of the same issues devising a digital archive.  I have about 53,000 songs from about 4,000 CDs.  I add about 400 CDs each year to my archive. ... 
When Did Your System Disappear?
About 2005 I got tired of looking at 1,500 LP in addition to C-90 tapes, CDs and DVDs. It made my listening room more of a warehouse than a home. My tape players were beyond repair. AM/FM has become a wasteland, exit my Carver tuner.   It wa...

deer rifle = 308 natodear rifle = 338 Winchester MagWhen I was 19 years old I shipped out on the river boats that travel from Pittsburgh to New Orleans. One is gone for 30 days at a time. The more experienced guys would ask if you have a girlfrien... 
Highly Questionable Music Suggestions.
All your points are well taken @rok2id .  I have a USB Hard drive with all my music on it. It has a directory named "DEMO" where a copy of all my favorite demo tracks live so I don't have to go searching and even worse remember where I hid all the...
