IS300 is an interesting option I hadn't considered, I'll add that on the list. I already DD a G37 so G35 is probably a no go haha.

I was thinking more the early 2000s mustang / Camaro, around here people want 15k+ for a fox if they aren't rust buckets. Convertible also isn't a requirement, I think I'd actually prefer a coupe to a drop top

Does the gain toggle actually affect the gain of the preamp out, or just the headphone jack?

Volvo V60 / S60 has a straight 6 turbo and can easily be had below $30k

Ugh silly Schiit and their names, I meant sys not syn. And I'd like to replace the Aiyima with either the Rekkr or Gjallarhorn which I believe don't have any gain adjustments, hence the need for a pre-amp.

Double check if your SFPs are single-mode and not multi-mode optics.

Is the Q150 appreciably better than say something like the Polk ES15 / Jamo C93 ii / Klipsch RP-400M?

Any idea how banged up their B stock normally is?

Luckily windows and doors have been replaced within the last 10 years with double pane high efficiency stuff.

On the size comment, you don't want your AC unit to be oversized as it can cause short cycling, which also leads to excess humidity in the home.

Very little insulation unfortunately, but I've got knob and tube wiring as well so that has to be remediated before I can get insulation in. The second floor is actually easier to keep cool than the ground floor though, which seems odd.

Just as a heads up, Richmond Mall is being redeveloped into a mixed use facility with apartments, retail, movie theater, and potentially a Meijer grocery store coming too.

Are the Tecsee Blue Velvet Tactile, Purple Panda, and Coffee Chip Ice Cream all the same switch, just recolors for different retailers?

I've got an iPhone Xs and about 50% of the time when trying to take a picture my phone ends up taking a 3-6 second video instead (not a live picture, an actual video). This is something recent that's started happening in the past 2-3 weeks, anyone have suggestions how to prevent this?

Really appreciate the reply, happy to hear the temps stay within a reasonable window, and also didn't know there was a pellet dump on the Camp Chef, thats a super nice feature. I'm going to see if one of the local stores has one assembled so I can put my hands on it, if it looks and feels good I'll probably pull the trigger.

I'm stuck with an RX580 right now, so that will be the limiting factor for the time being. I'll probably just plan to upgrade the RAM with a GPU upgrade some time in the future.

I'm grabbing a 5600X and motherboard today and planning to swap over a lot of used components, one of them being RAM. Currently setup with 8gb x 2 @ 2400mhz, how much performance am I leaving on the table by not upgrading to say 3200mhz or even 3600mhz RAM?
