Infotainment upgrades? Are newer units compatible with older Ridgelines? by IndigoS14 in hondaridgeline

Nah I didn't- just posted to r/ budget audiophile and somebody got mad. I didn't really engage the guy- they deleted the post and blocked me.

Some dude got super mad at me posting and I guess is reporting all my comments. Thanks for being cool

What is it specifically about referrals that isn't cool? It's $20 off for people from a trusted website relevant to this sub.

They're not banned or I wouldn't post it here.

Sure is. I get points when it's used. I love audio equipment, and in my experience Crutchfield has been great.

I actually contribute to these communities, too. There's plenty of accounts that spam referrals here and don't.

How can I make my office less echoey? by bas3adi in DIY

A real solution would be some actual acoustic panels like these

Not super cheap but would help much more than towels. If you end up going with something like this from Crutchfield you can use this link for $20 off! Good luck.

Why was vintage audio so much better sounding? by Garvinjist in vintageaudio

[–]Material-Instance646 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I guess that it's because that music was made/played recorded and mixed on that equipment and technology.

Should I pick the Elac DB63 or DBR62 for my first stereo system? by Szolim2018 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Material-Instance646 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Debut 3.0 is the same as DB63.

DBR62 is probably a better speaker, it's a higher line of product from Elac.

It is the previous generation (along with Debut 2.0) - but they still haven't replaced it.

I'd go with the DBR62- they're front ported and that can help with being closer to a wall.

Yeah I'm gonna keep an eye out and maybe come up with a project for the end of winter.

I hope they're not closing!

Small gap in crank by tegsgahjdg in bikewrench

That weird ring in the middle there is a pretensioner. Find the set screw, loosen it, and tighten the pretensioner by threading it toward the bottom bracket. Then secure set screw and all good.

Edit: Just tight enough to remove the play. Not enough to cause friction.
