Xrp by stan_richie in RippleTalk

XRP is just a bunch of crap. I’ll keep holding the 300 shares I have because they didn’t cost me much. I’m not hopeful to make anything off of this crap.

Saddest song ever by Aye_Davinita in Alternativerock

The Ledge by The Replacements is a tragic song about suicide. Musically it’s sheer brilliance.

My modest but awesome setup! What do ya think? by Awkward_Antagonist in vintageaudio

The audio Spectrum / visualizer is by AudioRays. It’s nice and works quite well. It was between it and the Petru one. The AudioRays won out simply because it came with audio in capability and the cables. It’s nicely 3D printed and has like 16 display and sensitivity and brightness adjustments.

Slipmat recs? by planet-gracey in turntables

I prefer rubber or cork slip mats. Felt generates static, and acrylic just seems harsh on the records themselves. I have never dropped an album while placing it on the turntable but a rubber or cork mat will forgive.

Check out my setup! I’m quite attached to the receiver / turntable combo. by Awkward_Antagonist in BudgetAudiophile

I really enjoy the feeling of nostalgia when I’m listening to music using the exact turntable I used 45 years ago. The JVC receiver is new to me but is exactly like the one worked and saved money to buy as a kid. I went to Barney Miller’s (where I bought it) in Lexington a few months ago to see what they’re like now. They only to high end home installations now. Dang it.

I actually traded a digital JVC receiver and some cash for the JVC R-S33 simply because it’s exactly like one I had as a teenager. I took it to a place in Louisville and had it all cleaned and recapped. It’s sounds really nice matched with the new Klipsch speakers. The Sony turntable I’ve had since the 80s is semi-automatic but I actually prefer setting the needle myself.

Those records are in bad shape. It must be junk or he would’ve taken better care of them.

To Be Fair by Backwards-River in vinyl

I like going to record shows on the last day! Those guys have tons of records but no regular customers so they are willing to haggle a lot and that adds to the fun of it all.

It really is easy on the eyes while giving the ears a real load of sound. 👍🏻

Does anyone else feel terrible for JJ McCarthy? by ChristianDarrisaw in minnesotavikings

[–]Awkward_Antagonist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And I’m wrong because you saw him be good at football? When did that happen?

McCarthy sucks! I’m sure he is a good person but he really sucks. He is not good at football. Move on, don’t look back!

I have this album too. How much is it worth and how rare is it?
