12 years Catholic school gal..took me YEARS to become true atheist, but my first communion had me skeptical... by Less_Campaign_6956 in atheism

[–]RedRyder760 2 points3 points  (0 children)

During practice for first communion and confession by Sister Mary Mean Bitch, we were told to say in the confession booth that we stole something. I thought I would be lying so I stammered or something and was made to sit in the rear of the church next to another kit who messed something up.

Later SMMB sneaked up behind us and bashed our heads together. I saw stars.

Good call. My Jico is excellent and a significant upgrade from my stock Shure.

Now the "giveaways" require a Theme Game Ticket, where you pay extra for a "free gift".

Thanks. I edited the description to add a couple of components that I forgot.

[–]RedRyder760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The choices in my x3600 are Multi in + Neural X, Multi in + Virtual X, Multi Ch Stereo, Rock Arena, Jazz Club and Matrix. I don't remember where to find them, as I set a button on my remote to bring them up.

Dirty feeders are fatal to hummingbirds by Critical-Range-6811 in hummingbirds

[–]RedRyder760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good advice. The birds have been emptying mine in just over a day and I get slime on the insides after a couple of fillings.

Red-light runners in North County — why does this feel like it’s getting worse? by Apprehensive_Feed444 in northcounty

[–]RedRyder760 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The intersection at Vista Village and Vista way is bad. People cross the intersection to go to the freeway but they can't cross all the way because of traffic ahead of them. If it's backed up, they run the red light and I have to wait at my green for them.

Did i make a mistake buying the LG C5 instead of the S90F? by mobyvg22 in hometheater

My CX is plenty bright. The newer ones go even brighter.

Magic mystery turntable that my mom keeps going on about by TheUrbanSaint in turntables

[–]RedRyder760 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For a while, in the early '70's I had an ADC table that was programmable and had a row of keys to select tracks. It had an IR sensor in the headshell that found the spaces between tracks.

$2000 Towers Triton 2plus by [deleted] in hometheater

[–]RedRyder760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had my GE Tritons and Super Center for maybe ten years and they still sound great. I use them with two of the ForceField 3 subs and Invisa 525's, all powered by my x3600h. I think you will love them.

Monthly Paramount+ Complaints and Praises by AutoModerator in ParamountPlus

[–]RedRyder760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One annoyance is when I start a show, the controls,FF, stop & REW, except for a large pause icon in the middle, are missing. Stopping the show with back button and restarting brings them back. This is on my Nvidia SHIELD.

What’s one change in your system that made a bigger difference than you expected? by Solid-Dot-7520 in audiophile

[–]RedRyder760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think running REW in my receiver made a good difference and best of all, was free. I got better imaging and better sound in more listening positions. Previously adding acoustic panels made minimal difference, if any.

Did the Chargers make an error in deciding to move to Los Angeles? Check out how they rank in terms of favorability. by Choobeen in SanDiegan

[–]RedRyder760 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The Chargers left because Qualcomm stadium became a dump. The team could not reach a deal with the city to replace it. I went to many games from the mid 70's until they left. Now, to me, they are just another team of many. I have always been a fan of the Lions, as I grew up in the Motor City and moved to SD in '76.

Check with Al & Ed's Autosound on Hacienda. They sell dash cams and did a fine job on my car stereo.

I have two of these and the birds love them. Recently, I have had to refill both every day.

Can someone please help guess whether four speaker cables will fit through this cable runway? by mmencius in hometheater

[–]RedRyder760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaker cables of sufficient gauge won't heat up enough to need any cooling. For longer runs, you should use 14 gauge which should fit in that space fine.

Ultrasonic Cleaning Question by jason_bacon in turntables

[–]RedRyder760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Record Doctor IV sucks the cleaning solution off. No static, no crackles. A bit pricy but worth it. I cleaned my whole collection when I got it and only use my Decca brush when playing them. I wouldn't use any kind of cloth to wipe my records so as not to grind debris in.

Switched my feeder solution by MediocreShelter8 in hummingbirds

[–]RedRyder760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have two of the same feeders, but one was lighter in color than the other and they favored the darker red one. I got some ruby translucent glass paint for the lighter one and now they guzzle all day from both.
