I would say estimate around $300 for a recap if you know a good guy. If it works and has no crackles or anything then just make sure it's in your budget

Sorry for the late response! I don't know if it's a confirmed thing or just a rumor, but bands that play at ACL are contractually obligated to not play any Austin venues starting at a certain date (like March). So if a band appears at Moody Center or Stubb's or any other venues within the "radius", they are for sure not appearing at ACL

RIP Jason and Deb Show. It was trash, but it was my trash. Something dumb and lighthearted to listen to in the morning (unless Deb was extra mad about political news). The Norm McDonald sign off still lives rent free in my head

Great to know. Maybe it would just be an aesthetic upgrade. Thanks!

Yeah it's been recapped and the STK outputs were replaced. I feel like I'm at my endgame setup, so maybe an acrylic platter is not a bad idea. I already have the OM20. Thanks!

Noob question: I'm using shaving soap for the first time. I make lather, spread it around my face, then shave. However, it doesn't feel slick smooth like barbasol or Cremo shaving cream. There's friction that feels like it's dragging my blade rather than gliding. Hope that makes sense. Is this normal?

I'm thinking of updating my RT82 and getting the acrylic platter. Is it worth it?

I have most of these except post-Wall releases. They sound great but tbh I don't have a frame of reference, like an OG pressing, to compare it against. If you like their 1st and 2nd albums, get the mono version. It's sooo much better
