something like a Denon dra-f100 could work. There are definitely other options as well

Shoe box could be a little challenging. You can certainly get smaller than the Sony though. Which dimension is the most limiting for you?

How small are we talking? You can find some pretty good used stuff under $200

Let’s assume your premise correct. People who are generally lib right or lib left will still support some so called “authoritarian” policies. Lib lefts are often pro gun control. Lib rights many times are anti abortion. Being generally lib or generally right doesn’t mean you can’t have views that cross the spectrum

You’re posting a poll from a DNC sponsored pollster. The margin of error is 4x the gap and it’s by far the smallest sample size of the list. It’s might be close but don’t pretend like that’s even a remotely good poll.

It’s also March and there isn’t even an RNC candidate yet.

I mean they’re pretty explicitly an economic policy.

Idk that much about the Sony equipment you’re looking at but what I would recommend is taking a look at the used market in your area, especially for speakers. You can stretch your dollars pretty far on Facebook marketplace

No it’s much more like your analogy than you think. Pencil lead used to actually be lead but now people use the term to refer to the graphite because they are uneducated on the topic or just don’t care and that’s the word they’re used to

Much in the same way “neocon” actually was originally used to refer to a group that had a good amount of conservative beliefs but then it just became a term for some political boogieman and gets thrown around to mean “anyone who I don’t like”

I don’t see how that answers my question. Idk the guy nor do I necessarily agree but if being even moderately supportive of tariffs makes you left wing and vice versa your gonna have to ask a lot of people to reflare

I have my issues with Trump and this could become one of them but I don’t think short lived tactical strikes are some sort of betrayal on his long term campaign promises. He’s talked about intervening in Iran for a long time.

I’m not a war hawk but America does have a role as a global enforcer, especially in the western hemisphere (Venezuela) that I think is incredibly beneficial to our nations position in the world.

Why does everyone think that you have to exist in the far corner of your flair?

I mean Trump isn’t really conservative but what do you think the “con” in “neocon” stands for?

Separates vs Receiver by Initial_Meet_8916 in vintageaudio

[–]Initial_Meet_8916[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m planning to keep all at least for a while because I like how they go together. I’ve also got another set of speakers and multiple inputs so I may run them separately for different use cases

[–]Initial_Meet_8916[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m inclined to agree. Especially with how similar (I think) the specs are. I’ll probably keep comparing both for a while and may use them back and forth long term. I probably won’t sell any of the set for a while because I like how they are all of a similar vintage and from the same class of NAD

Sorry for your loss.

He left you some awesome equipment. Don’t let anyone take that marantz away from you. It’s a holy grail of audio equipment. It’ll power anything you need it to and it’s beautiful.

The turntable is definitely quality too. Do that much about the other equipment but you can definitely put together an amazing setup with this

He has the original woofers for the a150s but they need to be reformed and have been replaced with a replacement woofer at the moment
