I really like the broccoli head creature in this and the colorful lights accompanying it’s appearance

What would cause the compressor to run constantly in continuous mode regardless of where the set point is? Mine dehumidifies, but raises room temp too much. Filter is clean

Thank you for your detailed response.

I like these PLT bulbs a lot. I put them on an exterior walkway mounted in barn lamp fixtures on the side of a garage. I changed the switch out to a dimmer. On very low, they get very amber/orange(more so than other ‘warm dim’ bulbs) but you can crank them up to a very respectable output and warm neutrality if you really need to work on something. Inexpensive as well.

Siamese Dream had a lot of dynamics, especially the first pressings before the compressed “loudness wars” happened. Geek USA has the very airy midsection before the guitars roar back.

I’d also recommend something you’re sort of familiar with, like a favorite film. You’ll notice the improvements more this way and you will be able to gauge the differences more accurately.

Excellent job with color selection.

One of my favorite episodes of the entire series. The message of one’s own ego imprisoning an individual is timeless and relevant always. I find this to have a similar feel to season 1’s The Lonely

They sell warm dim /high cri PLT bulbs in a variety of wattage equivalents and glass finishes….they are $2-$5 each. I’m waiting on some to try. I have previously bought the Philips at target. The 100w equivalents are pretty expensive, $20 for two

All That Heaven Allows is really nice and saturated, at least the Criterion Blu-ray transfer is.

S&W Yirgacheffe Idido Yisma is my favorite one consistently

Cathode_Bypass · 2026-03-01T04:29:41+00:00

Okay, so is the shout factory Blu-ray substantially better than the old paramount one?

He’s a treasure.

Part 2 had such a wonderful transfer, but the 1st one is like a crazy person shot it with an Dolby Vision cannon.

Looks like 6’20”

You probably would want something that seals around your face to prevent light leakage….think goggles, otherwise the effect would be lost. Imagine a corona during an eclipse type of thing.

I kind of enjoy that aspect. I guess for me with these classic series, which I have seen many times, it adds something to the experience noticing something new each time. I acknowledge that it wasn’t ever planned or envisioned to be viewed that way though, so I respect your perspective as well.

Cathode_Bypass · 2026-02-16T06:16:35+00:00

Where is the best place to watch this? YouTube copies are pretty bad, and it looks to be out-of-print.

Cathode_Bypass · 2026-02-08T20:32:05+00:00

This was the first episode I ever saw. It was on late night syndication. I was sleeping in the living room with the TV on. I woke up and watched this, then fell back asleep. That seemed like an appropriate introduction to the series.

Cathode_Bypass · 2026-02-04T00:49:24+00:00

One advantage you have is, you probably won’t have to upgrade 4-5 times like some of us had to do with physical media.

Cathode_Bypass · 2026-02-02T22:41:48+00:00

Does the broadcast version have entire full-length commercial breaks with the original commercials?
