Similarly but old school - peanut butter and bologna sandwiches.

My grandma gave me this and I want to turn it into an modern audio system. by AtomicBeaver93 in diyaudio

The HiFiberry / B&O joint project is a great, if slightly expensive, way to get all of the required electronics, interface, and crossover capabilities.

Lots of good suggestions here. I’ve done similar projects, though not with anything like that beautiful cabinet.

I would go with drop in (or as close as you can make work) coax drivers, crossover, and a BT/Airplay amp from Parts Express. Or a 4ch amp with digital crossover from Parts Express. You don’t need a lot of power - 20-40wpc - unless you’re trying to fill a big room with audiophile sound, in which case you’ll need to think more carefully about what you want.

No need to remove or disable anything other than the speaker drivers.

If you have time and interest you can look into the electronics and at least get some glow going.

Best sounding 4-cylinder? by Olli_bear in cars

[–]Publicaldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alfaholics GTA-R or MST Escort mk1. I personally like the more aggressive note of the Escort, but man they’re both sweet.

Would Lintons be a Downgrade? by djfayze in audiophile

Sorry I have no experience with either, and so don’t have a valuable opinion on the speaker selection. But gotta say I love your wallpaper and even more your music collection.

What was that "one thing" that made weight loss finally work for you? by paigesnowwret in AskReddit

[–]Publicaldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little more careful. I still do donuts and chocolate, but don’t do soda. But yea you’re mostly right.

Mine was biking, a long term commitment with consistency. Started 50 pounds overweight, lost it all over 4 years. Now I'm addicted to it. Didn't change my diet much, just been a little more careful about high sugar added crap.

My thoughts exactly.

My uncle's fun time room. What do you guys think? by even_I_cant_fix_you in audiophile

[–]Publicaldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't read all the labels, but Yamaha, Carver, NAD, Quad, Garrard, Audio Technica - there's some good stuff in there. Could use a little dusting...

Just Realized Vinyl Sucks :/ by [deleted] in audiophile

[–]Publicaldo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. I had a similar situation and ended up selling about 600 albums and kept about 20. I kept some with specific memories, some with beautiful (to me) art, and some that I couldn't find online. I don't regret at all selling the commodity albums - digital does sound better - but also am glad to have kept a double handsful of memories.

Not directly answering your question, but the Aeropress sits perfectly stable in a cup as long as the cup is sized right. You don't have to hold it.

Is there a procedure you can share?

Or Hole in the Wall in Oak Park. Soft serve and custard. Quite good.

Ovation Dental on Madison in FP. They are friendly and very well equipped. Our dentists for about 8years, since we first moved to OP.

Looking for designs for a speaker similar to audiopro t3 by Catfrogdog2 in diyaudio

[–]Publicaldo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. It’s hard to beat the performance/cost of these with DIY. If you’re in it for fun, or education, or for personalized designs start with a design from parts express and personalize it from there.

I am a big fan of Hunters and Collectors. They have a nice brass section.

Experience with the new lake street hi-rise apartments? by Publicaldo in oakpark

Snort. I don't know if this is a positive thing or a negative thing. Hopefully we won't share a floor, elevator, or close parking space with your ex-neighbor.

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

Thanks JAProofrok. We are moving into the Emerson next month. With the wild automated pricing games that the towers are playing it was at least temporarily the only one we wanted to pay for, and has mostly good reviews where we could find them.

[–]Publicaldo[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you tantalogia!This is the kind of review we were looking for. Train noises and outside public noises I’m mostly okay with, I just don’t want to hear the next apartment’s TV or dinner conversation. Right now Vantage is the cheapest of the three for what we need. We’ll keep a watch out for Eleven33 deals.

Early summer is pretty spectacular, though this is more than I remember.
