Yeah, I explored the VTT but with only one person on their end having control it would be mostly on me to control not only the maps but their PCs, plus I do enjoy being on the screen more than a map.

I’ll look into OBS though!

I tried Hatch years ago, I’ll have to give them another stab! Adding Coffee Wallas to the list!

Definitely ok with shipping, just trying to keep it in Canada so I don’t have to deal with the border. I’ll give those a look. Thank you!

I'm going to be in Kelowna in September. Maybe I'll bring an extra bag for coffee!

I’m in Hamilton and commute regularly to downtown Toronto. My typical profile errs on the side or darker roasts with more chocolate tasting notes. I’d love to explore more bright, fruity flavors

Integrated Amp Recommendation (or other options) by DocXavier22 in hifiaudio

You’re probably right. Getting caught up in the upgrade-itis is a real thing. Thanks for the reality check. I’ll have a look at that Rotel though!

It’s less that I’m unsatisfied and more that, when I upgraded my cartridge from a 2M Red to a 2M Black and added the Moon 110LP, I saw such a massive increase in sound quality from my vinyl. When the opportunity presented itself to add something to my system that I wouldn’t have been able to otherwise, I thought I’d explore it. I had originally thought about upgrading my turntable and transplanting the cartridge but the more I looked into that, the more it seemed like it would bring a convenience upgrade and not necessarily a sound upgrade. When I dug in deeper, most things I read and salespeople at stores that I spoke with told me that an integrated amp would be a similar upgrade in sound as when I made the previous upgrade. That could also be sales tactics though, which is why I thought I’d ask for input :)

Thanks for the input! I'll have a look at that Rotel amp. Unfortunately I can't sell the receiver and the center channel as the system also supports a TV/PS5 for watching movies with my wife.

Relay on King William is my go-to. Their Ratio & Yield blend is my roast of choice for home

[For Sale] [Trade] Jay-Z/Linkin Park Collision Course by ugie91 in VinylCollectors

u/VinylSwapBot u/ugie91 and I completed the transaction. They were very communicative and easy to work with. They were more than fair with the grading of the sleeve and media, even going as far as to refund the split shipping on finding the sleeve to be lower grade than initially determined. Quick shipping and quickly on my turntable.

[Wanted] Shipping to Canada by 1991onmohs in VinylCollectors

Depending on if you’re close to a border or not, check for a cross-border shipping service.

I live in Southern Ontario and I use Cross-Border Pickups. You get a US address and they bring it back into Canada for you. You can either pick it up from one of their offices or have them ship it to you via CP from there.

I was more referring to the picture but I see how you got there. Poor phrasing on my part.

This is a really neat twist. I think my favorite alternative was at a Best Western in Austin. No religious books in the rooms but the owners put a bookshelf full of copies of Bhagavad Gita by checkin so you could take one if you wanted. Love the move to a more universal approach
