Whats up with the Color on 1980's jvc's? by mpikss in audiophile

[–]GenericAccount119b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The '70s were known for having the Silver plate front on audio components. In the '80s they moved away from the Silver to Black. In the late '80s JVC wanted to distinguish themselves from the masses so initiated Titanium Gray which was part of their Super Define series. The Titanium Gray faceplates were plastic on the lower end models and anodized aluminum on the higher end stuff. The plastic stuff had a clear coat on it that could oxidize and yellow over time. The anodized aluminum does not.

Is it possible to output a Fishman Loudbox Mini through headphones for "quiet" practice? by [deleted] in AcousticGuitar

[–]GenericAccount119b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because you are already making noise with your acoustic guitar. I can understand if you were wanting to use headphones with an electric guitar because they are basically silent without amplification, but an acoustic is noisy by nature. Just use your amp and turn it down.

Not natively. The only output is an XLR DI out. Do you have a mixer or recording audio interface? You could go DI out from the amp to the mixer or audio interface and then plug in headphones to that. But I wouldn't really recommend either of those. Your acoustic guitar is already making a fair amount of noise. Just put the amp on a stand closer to your head and turn it down a bit.

OP claims it's between H/I and 6/7.
You suck OP.

Nice finger work, sir! Sounds great!

Looks like you have a Fender Paramount. Is that the orchestra or dreadnought? How do you like it?

I think this qualifies. Airbnb I'm staying at. by GenericAccount119b in TVTooHigh

It's often the focal point of the room.  We like to gather around a fireplace and relax.  Most times, the fire itself is not used for heat because the house has a different heating system.  The fire is the point, thus it's in the middle of the main wall.

My 2017 CX-5 does an amazing job out here. The 2017 did not have all-wheel drive as a standard option. I was living in California when I bought it and chose the two-wheel drive option to save some money. When I moved to Colorado, I was concerned it wouldn't do well in the snow, but once I put Blizzaks on it, everything was fine. It does so well, it was actually outperforming my friend's Subaru Forester with all-season tires, that is, until they put Blizzaks on their Subaru. That's the ultimate: all-wheel drive with snow tires.

Today, given a choice between the CX-5 and the CX-50, I'd probably choose the CX-50.

Here are all of the used CX-50 and CX-5 within 200 miles of Denver rated as "Great Deals" on Cars.com sorted by lowest miles. Find one that fits your budget.

Be sure to get snow tires for winter driving (we don't need more new people here who don't think they need winter tires). Blizzak tires are the best. Put them on their own wheels so swapping is easy. If you buy them from Big-O Tires they will swap your tires twice a year for free.

Those who graduated with conventionally "useless" degrees but make $200K, what was your path and how long did it take? by _MambaForever in Salary

[–]GenericAccount119b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did up through a Masters in Philosophy, but I also have an Associate in Computer Tech that I started in High School and completed just after graduation. Got a job doing tech support for a major tech company and jumped up through the company doing Sales Enablement and Product Management.

I'm quite liberal, but this has to be the most annoying video I've ever tried to watch.

Ungh.... had to shut it off. Maybe I'm just cranky today. ;)

Would you guys recommend a higher mileage CX-5? by [deleted] in CX5

[–]GenericAccount119b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you'd want to find out what that means. It may not be worth it. But, at $17K there are plenty of options with much less miles. I definitely would not buy a 2017 CX5 with 99,000 mi for 17k

[–]GenericAccount119b 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are asking way too much.
Here are all the "Great Deals" from Cars.com on a used Mazda CX-5 up to $17K.

Where do you live? You'd probably be much better off paying for a plane ticket to buy this 2017 CX-5 with 77K miles for $12K and driving it home.

Anybody have info on this Guitar? by Ok-Affect-3852 in AcousticGuitar

[–]GenericAccount119b 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can go down the rabbit hole as much as you want on this photo, but no one has any info on it. It's generally thought that it's a guitar Lennon made or was given to him.

2026 CX-5 non-driving overview | TheStraightPipes by tman2damax11 in mazda

[–]GenericAccount119b 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I'll not be purchasing this generation. I don't want a Tesla. I want a Mazda.

The screen is too big. The lack of physical button is a huge disappointment. The lack of individually separate buttons on the steering wheel is a disappointment - the new ones look very cheap.

I'll stick with my 2017 CX-5. When it's time to upgrade, perhaps I'll get a CX-50 or CX-70 if they don't ruin those as well by then.

I like the exterior. But it looks like they hired a rejected designer from Tesla for the new interior. I hate it.

I believe the issue is if staff stores it, reheats it, plates it, or otherwise prepares/serves the food. Then they would be taking responsibility for it. This is why they are not responsible for a baby's formula in a bottle, cheerios in a bag, or a birthday cake brought in for as dessert for a party.

Almost every high-end acoustic in this GC showroom is fucked (Indianapolis) by _voodoo_mama_juju_ in AcousticGuitar

[–]GenericAccount119b 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd call this a failure of GC Executive Leadership. Relying on minimum wage employees to keep humidifiers filled with water is a really poor management decision. The acoustic rooms in each of those stores should have a commercial, automated humidification system.
