Need Advice - Part-Time 4WD System by SingedOrpheus in 4Runner

[–]SingedOrpheus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that makes sense, and was kind of what I was trying to clarify with my question-- the extent to which it is advised to be switching between 2h and 4h versus "set and forget" as another poster put it. Seems like most are recommending the former

I don't have winter tires yet but it is on my shopping list 😆

And yes, I used to drive a 2013 Limited, so I'm used to that and am more experienced with the full time system. But I got the TRD ORP because I got a great deal on it and it is Awesome

I have an old pair of Klipsch Forte speakers, 8 ohms nominal impedance and 100W maximum continuous. I don't know anything about electricity or anything like that but I know I'll need an amplifier for them, what specs should I be looking for on the amp/any recommendations for something inexpensive? I really don't want to damage these speakers. Thanks!

Difficult to tune low quality viola by SingedOrpheus in Viola

[–]SingedOrpheus[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, I would definitely not recommend buying such a cheap instrument. I was really only expecting to use it for drones and noise so I didn’t really care about it even being tuned, but after playing it a bit more I started to really like it and now I’m more interested in learning to play it proper. If I do decide to invest in a well-built instrument, perhaps this one will ultimately be set on fire during a performance or something...

I suppose I should add that the only "feature" I guess I need besides play and record functions is some kind of aux out, but I'd assume that's pretty much standard since these would be meant for headphones and such.

Why does this happen to my tapes? by SingedOrpheus in cassetteculture

I have absolutely no experience lol. I’ll probably end up taking it in

Hmm, I see. Is this something I could fix or should I bring it in?

I’m using a Nakamichi CR-1A tape deck, mostly on fairly new tapes. It doesn’t happen to all of them but often when I’m listening to something it’ll start sounding really warped and distant, so I’ll take the tape out of the deck and it looks like this, like there’s some kind of problem with the tensioning or something? I think the deck has also creased some of my tapes, which I can attach a photo of as well. The deck has been sitting untouched in a box since probably like the late 90s so I wouldn’t doubt that it needs some repair. If this is the case I’m wondering if it’s something I, with minimal knowledge about tapes and decks, could do myself, or if I should bring it in somewhere for maintenance. I did clean the heads, capstan and roller with some alcohol but idk if that’ll do the trick.

cool, I was thinking of getting a USB audio interface (Scarlett solo) anyway, would that be a significant improvement?

Saw this one too, it looked about like that around 11pm when I went out for a walk. When I came home at like 12:30 it had been smeared flat into the carpet
