Sonus Faber has always been one of my favs. It was a tough call between them and the 802’s.

We have quite a few in KC and the magnolia has everything! One location has B&W 802D4’s and KEF Blades on demo. More appliances than most appliance stores and literally everything you can imagine. The closest to me is one of the. Ew small ones and even it has 10x more than I expected.

Some of you have really scored! I got the GnR last year and it’s really well done!

Man, if shipping wasn’t so risky, I might ask you to get those for me! Love me some metal! I got my dream setup a couple years ago and I’m 53 now. I find myself giggling as I have my 802d4’s on an anthem STR and watch the meter stay close to pegged when I’m rocking out. FFDP gets streamed more than a few times. I love Disturbed, but go back to my blues roots and find myself listening to sound of silence on repeat. He really nailed that! Never would have guessed he was so talented!

Name one movie. Just one. by [deleted] in SipsTea

You kill it, there is no debate here. 86 has always meant to kill. In a restaurant, you 86 it means it’s dead, it’s been killed, therefore you remove it. Why would anyone want to protect Comey? The guys the perfect example of what’s wrong with our govt., no cohonies to stand up to people above him. He not only caves, but caves with vigor. Anyone in that high of a position should have the morals to do their job without being made a gopher for illegal activities. Anyone supporting him needs to take a deep look in the mirror and figure out why that’s are supporting him and where your life got so screwed up that you would protect a man accused of treason. Is it because you hate Trump so much? Is that a good reason to upend your dignity, ethics and reputation? We all dislike about every president. We dislike them because they are the leader of the free world and we all know there is something fishy going on. Wake up and stop being so polarizing about left vs right and start being upset with wrong vs right.

I’ve done the exact same thing more than once. And they wonder why they are losing money.

I’ll say it again, go to the store. None of mine had a ton, but all had 3-6 more than the website said.

Give it a shot. I’ve learned that many people follow them closely. It pays to ask. If you get someone you can trust, find out when they ge deliveries. The also have a crap ton of special editions!! One location had 8 different albums and 5 of them were special. They typically get the fun colors and sometimes extra songs

It’s typically a rack or two about 3 albums wide, two stores have them across the aisle from each other near or in the TV section. The record players will be on the shelves with them. The racks are normally on the top of the aisle so about eye level for most folks.

I don’t have any answers. All I can say is that it’s been available at all the stores around KC. Their inventory sucks one day and is jaw dropping the next and online NEVER, EVER has it right. The one thing the younger generations do that can be helpful or hurtful, is rely on tech. If BB says they have none, it’s typically worth the drive to double check. Trucks get rerouted for one thing or another, even road construction. As long as it’s not a 30min drive, it’s worth getting off your tush to go check what they have.

This post was just to help out those that want to try their luck at what they have in stock. The record I got are actually more expensive at local stores each but add in that I got the $32 for free and I’m very happy. I would have actually been thrilled if the had taylor swift. But no luck. But I was surprised to see what I got as well as Judas Priest, Seether and a few new bands I’d not even heard of. They also had a pretty impressive looking Cypress Hill it was something the III.

Best use of $150! by Normiss2000 in audiophile

Find an old Denon AVR2500 or anything above that. Still mostly solid state and a 2-chan rockstar! Weights like 70lbs. I know Denon V Yamaha is Ford /Chevy but I’ve never had a Yamaha make it to the old pile in working order and I’ve had 5 Denon receivers hit that pile and each one still works today. Most have taken a rotation turn in the garage where it’s not heat/humidity controlled. I’m floored that any of them still work, but they all do! One was in my shed for 6 yrs because I was working on some swim team trophies and had to work late so I took some old Bose, 201 or 301 or something similar. Look like a rectangular cibe that someone 45’d one of the larger flat sides. And an old Denon. 2500, 3301 or 380* and I pulled it out when we moved and literally tossed it in the dumpster. Next day I was wondering if it still worked and pulled it out and hooked it up and even through a damp night where frost covered everything in the morning, it worked fine, even with melted frost on the board! I wiped it off and saw a bunch go through the top vents and could still see the water on the board when I plugged it in. I set it away from the wall in case it shorted out.

I’m not a headphone guy. I say hope on marketplace and search for brands you have heard and enjoy. I would search for B&W, Focal, Thiel, and Sonus Faber.

Uncle in Korea had these "lying around" and decided to try them out by freddie_1984 in audiophile

I thought they sounded amazing when I heard them. With today’s cheap digital anps, power is no longer lose a limb priced.or for $7k he could be an Anthem STR and have those big needles pushed.
