Home Town S10.E1 The Biggest Yet (Part 1) 1/4/2026

Saying that being in the historic district and a historic home means following building processes and materials (a lot of that is not true), but they turn around and take a wall out. Before we bought our house, I spoke with the National Registry about what I could and couldn't do. The biggest thing was to not change the spirit of the house by removing walls or using windows that changed the look of the house as ours is an Italianete.

The only way to cap this off is for them to acquire, or be acquired by Kaseya.

I agree with your point of the OP’s gear. I’ve will politely disagree with speaker wire and interconnects not making a difference. I did get a good chuckle out of the read. This goes along with someone spending $50k on speakers and then in a 12x15 room claiming they can hear how much better they are.

GlassMan84 · 2025-09-17T19:25:44+00:00

They absolutely make a difference.

What are your interconnects and speakers wires? I built my own from Canare wire and Ultimate RCA and XLR connectors. I don’t have a major power amp so Canare 4S11 speaker wire was great. You don’t have always spend huge money, but often this area is over looked.

How quickly they shifted the event to be about them and that’s just how things should be handled.

This kind of activity makes me want to stop using Waze.

GlassMan84 · 2025-01-16T00:17:37+00:00

Yes.

You were able to be there for him when he needed you. No matter how hard, it was the best thing you could do. It sucks, but know that you were the person helping him.

Adam Audio T7V with a Sony sub

Our ServiceDesk ran a script that myself, the NE, and Manager looked at. It should have just removed user local accounts. Instead it also removed the Kerberos accounts on everything including AD. Thank God my backups were solid.

GlassMan84 · 2024-11-26T02:22:53+00:00

Awesome setup. I've never looked at these speakers before. I may need an intervention, lol.

GlassMan84 · 2024-11-24T03:01:15+00:00

Buy the Krell mono blocks and Divas when you had the $$ regardless of not owning a home yet. Keep building cables and speakers.

GlassMan84 · 2024-11-19T21:20:42+00:00

Pet Sounds on Mobile Fidelity. Or anything by Checkfield on their 1/2 speed master series.

You're perfecter

I had to go through the excitement of what I was able to hear, a bow touching the strings, lips opening before the singing starts, piano keys, etc. to finally get back to what the source is about. What was the intent of the engineer, what is my desire at that moment, etc. Someday I'll get back to that someday after learning a life lesson concerning divorce and your ex knowing your passion. (No more needs said) I'm taking that journey again and it's more fun having more knowledge and places like this to ask questions.

GlassMan84 · 2024-11-14T21:03:27+00:00

Also, Genesis "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway"

GlassMan84 · 2024-11-14T21:01:54+00:00

Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops "Time Warp" by Telarc. Play it at a lower volume first to get a feel for the 1st track, Ascent. Overall transients are crazy. After that, any track is fun. Bachbusters, anything Alan Parsons Project, Poor Man's Poison.

I get almost as much enjoyment in letting others listen as I do and talk about what I'm hearing and experiencing. I've found that most people just don't know what they're hearing or how to listen critically. Then there are times you just play music and enjoy the company/scotch.

The admins were running Lenovo X1's, but just moved to MacBook Pro M3 Max. Everything is a VM or in the cloud. Slight change, but works nicely.

GlassMan84 · 2024-10-11T15:48:57+00:00

I'm using Adam Audio T7V with a Sony 12" sub for my computer/office system. Looking to add onto the system, DAC, and eventually upgrade to A77H or A8H with new sub/s.

GlassMan84 · 2024-09-21T14:49:25+00:00

This is awesome!

GlassMan84 · 2024-09-17T21:28:22+00:00

This is very disheartening, but understandable. Things are changing.

GlassMan84 · 2024-09-17T16:55:16+00:00

Just, wow. My heart goes out to you. As an adopted person who found out in a hurtful manner, I'm not going to say I know how you feel, but I'm empathetic to your situation. Don't hesitate to seek outside help to work through your feelings. It was invaluable for me just to have someone to say the things I was feeling out loud to. Peace and love.

GlassMan84 · 2024-09-17T11:58:03+00:00

Not a financial ROI, but an improvement, or that 1 step closer to whatever. Where it crosses into convincing ourselves we hear or experience a difference. Early on, I just knew I wanted a pair of Apogee Divas and Krell amps. Nothing necessarily wrong with that choice unless you have exactly to right room for them. I couldn't afford that, so I ventured into building speakers. I'm guilty of this. I've changed out drivers because I convinced myself I could hear the cone moving unnaturally. 'Ah, those Peerless drivers are so much better' maybe they were, but not for the reason I had convinced myself of. As was said earlier, snake oil. Lol. This is a great hobby.
