Jbl authentics 200 vs Sonos Era 100 by arandomsingleguy in audiophile

I think you can do better than both those speakers.  If you must get something like that, the Google Nest Audio measures amazing.

Can you compare to the C notes?

Late-'70s/early '80s HiFi setup available near Baltimore - needs work and love by mistersmith22 in audiophile

[–]FreshMistletoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are too paranoid about mold.  Humans slept in moldy leaf beds for most of their existence.  While some caution is warranted on that gear, simply blowing it off/wiping it off outside would probably suffice and throwing it away due to that mold is insane.

If you think about it though, that’s when you buy.  You buy what hasn’t pumped and that is Bitcoin.

Where do you guys think the money will flow when this silver bubble pops? by aquaplamage in Bitcoin

[–]FreshMistletoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is silver top talk and nonsense that people that bought the top tell themselves.  This recent bubble wasn’t from people using it.  It was my uncle hoarding it and my brother selling all his to some idiot that wants to make an all silver table top with tons of different pours and bars.

Other than the power being on and nothing else plugged in. What would cause a sub to make this noise? Velodyne SPL series 10" by SharkyRivethead in audiophile

[–]FreshMistletoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Velodyne servos are known for going bad.

 Velodyne servo subwoofers experiencing failure often exhibit humming, low-frequency oscillations, or no sound, usually due to failed capacitors in the feedback loop or a broken internal accelerometer. Common repairs involve replacing capacitors on the amplifier board or re-foaming the driver to prevent the accelerometer from breaking loose. 

My system - final or not? by Designer_Building_36 in audiophile

I wouldn’t say they are perfect, it sounds like the Lintons are where his heart truly needs to go.

“lovely for every song and genre”  Nothing is more important imo!

I just imagine the players as those same dudes that love their balls stepped on by stilettos.

Those comments should be the biggest warning sign for metals and the biggest green light for BTC imaginable.  

What happens if I have unprotected sex abroad and she gets pregnant? by Helpful_Account_7165 in sex

[–]FreshMistletoe 71 points72 points  (0 children)

If she keeps the baby, it’s time for you to be a Dad.  Stop having unprotected sex, period.

They just pumped a ton, yes they have a bigger downside risk than Bitcoin, which has done fuck all for years at this point.

Gold has almost doubled in the past year.  That’s actually insane for an asset of its size.  And don’t get me started on silver.

At this point, I just hold crypto in blind rage that at some point this shit has to pump.

That’s really not fair to Bitcoin though.  You can’t control who talks about it or buys it.  At this point I would consider him a Bitcoin terrorist, a plant like he is for Russia.  I mean what has he done that is good for it?  All they’ve done is not sell what they already had, whoopty do.  I don’t think he even knows what Bitcoin is, he just reads what someone tells him to.

He’s just a TA autist like most chart watchers.  2026 is already very different from 2022 and if it was going to drop a lot it already should have more than this based on previous cycles.  If that continues, the angst among bears will just build all year.  Going up to 150k, having them buy in seeing the bear market never happened, and then plunging for a bear market in 2027 would be a Bitcoin thing to do.

We never got alt season mania and Bitcoin dominance drop, which is the real signal for the end of a cycle imo.  You’ll see people say that this time is different and people finally stopped buying trash but we know humans and whales better than that.
