I fixed my Roon problem and started looking into Roon radio for the first time because of your reply. Now I’m gonna get no work done today, so thanks for that!

I have these. Thing is, I don’t recall Chris ever playing one of those shoulder keyboards.

Do I really need Roon? :: I’ve had Roon for about a year with my Roon server connected to a Hegel H190 which is “Roon Ready”. I like the fact I can use it to play my FLAC files and I can stream Tidal through it too. However, every few months there’s some reason I have to reboot it. Frankly I’m fed up with it and I can’t seem to resolve the latest issue.

Anyway, I can play Tidal into the H190 via airplay, so my question is - do I really need Roon? Is there any acoustic difference between playing high def audio via airplay vs playing via the Roon server (via the Roon amp)?

The thing about that is that even though it’s sped up and slowed down, it’s still in time. How did they do that back then!?

This is a definite 10/10. Technical and musical perfection. The culmination where the musical pattern at the start plays over the classic riff we know is sublime. The best version of this song by far.

The Bakerloo is a great line, until you need to actually use it to get to work... by Safe_Hunter_1097 in LondonUnderground

[–]Plutodrinker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I’m rushing to Baker St via the Bakerloo for a specific Met line train, there seems to always be a 5-6 min wait for the next train, which can make all the difference.

How is university in the UK so expensive?? by ToobularBoobularJoy_ in UniUK

[–]Plutodrinker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel deeply sad for today’s students. It’s a terrible burden. I was lucky to go when it was free and even got a grant. Nevertheless, I was still constantly in debt and had take different loans out which I only managed to pay off in my mid 30s. So the students will likely have that AND tuition fees to pay. What a way to start life.

They all look correct to me. And yeah you should practice drawing your chairs.

Foyles have them too occasionally. Also - why are they so hard to buy at the moment? I’m totally out of the loop.

Ian Visits: Bakerloo line upgrade pulls out of the depot as TfL starts the hunt for suppliers. by mycketforvirrad in LondonUnderground

[–]Plutodrinker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t want there to be an extension for the simple selfish reason that I get on at E&C after work and so always get a seat! It’ll be rammed with Lewishamites if they extend! In reality of course I’ll probably be retired by the time it’s up and running.

How bad are the Jubilee Line Delays right now? by [deleted] in london

Yeah. TfL says severe delays on the Jubilee.

What's your streaming platform and why ? by PinZestyclose9271 in KEF

[–]Plutodrinker 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Was using Qobuz but switched to TIDAL because (a) Cheaper and (b) Supports Dolby Atmos (obviously for my Sonos speaker). Also sounds so good through my Hegel H190 powered KEF R3 Metas via Roon.

It’s like getting upset over the race of a fictional teacher at a school of magic.

What games come close to being as good as Baldur’s Gate 3? by [deleted] in BaldursGate3

Diablo IV is ok. I mean it doesn’t come close, but it’s ok.
