| What compilation album from The Kinks do I want? Figured it out: The Essential Kinks Lola is a live version but I'll survive with it. Not an easy title to find in mint condition at a reasonable price but I persevered. Yes, a lot of other songs on there too that I'm sure I'll enjoy. | |
| What compilation album from The Kinks do I want? I would have to get two sets with a LOT of repetition. | |
| Package Has Disappeared in USPS System If you want it lost, ship it USPS. If you want it destroyed, ship it UPS. Every shipping service has it's own gambles. Always get insurance. Get tracking updates and save every one of them until delivery. | |
| What were your favorite gear additions in 2024? Morrow Audio SP6 speaker cables. Even in my modest vintage equipment the improvement in clarity is very noticeable. | |
| Help for me, money for you. I know nothing about streaming, don't care to. But... the equipment does have computer chips in them I'm sure. Anything with a chip, when things go awry, reboot it after unplugging for 20 minutes. Works 99% of the time. Some things have to be don... | |
| An audio component you just can't let go My Sony 32 inch CRT TV. 25 years old and works as good as the day I bought it. Perfect for watching old shows that just look better with a little pixelation. It has stereo sound so it qualifies here. | |
| Burn Twetter Speaker About 35 years ago I bought my first decent system. I was young, cranked the hell out of it. Turned it all the way up and just a tweak down when the amp red-lined. I went through tweeters in both cabinets. Paid to heave them replaced. Tech was nic... | |
| Physical degradation of CD's @ibmjunkman People will buy anything as long as it's expensive. I hate when vinyl records get magnetized! | |
| Mark Knopfler & James Taylor @larryi Thanks for that post. Never heard of a different version of that song but it sounds very interesting. I'll have to see if I can find it on CD. | |
| Mark Knopfler & James Taylor Seasons in the Sun by Terry Jacks One of those rare songs that moves me every time I hear it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mw5wdXjTgFc | |
| YouTube Indicates What the Future is For Audiophiles - Interesting Demographics. I have seven different hobbies. For decades, most of them have been "dying off". Funny, most are still around. Stamp collecting doesn't have the crowd it once did but most are doing just fine. As one group dies off, the next comes of age and tak... | |
| Can anyone identify this equipment? @logistics You nailed it. I looked at other images and that is it. Thanks. From what I gather it’s nothing too fancy but built with decent quality. Many musicians not being audiophiles, I’m sure it would have filled the bill quite nicely for Ro... | |
| Can anyone identify this equipment? For all the sane responses so far, thank you. The image came from this page: https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/jimmy-pages-record-collection-a-glimpse-of-his-music-library.777753/ There’s a Jimmy page video on there too. That inspired me t... | |
| Can anyone identify this equipment? Well then, that means you're either wearing your low cut dress or your halter top. | |
| Can anyone identify this equipment? Do you feel better now? |
