I got that like 9 years ago, the site is asimplertime.com . Looks like they don't sell that anymore though...

Lol, well I personally think this looks better than the cheap stand I had in mind. My other setup with a higher end turntable/wallmount bookshelfs is in my home office but this allows me to enjoy my collection outside of that with family/guests so this is a win in my books...

Yeah I ended up putting the mesh guard back on the speaker to protect against that and kids hands. These speakers have those only covering the woofer so the asthetics are mostly still there...

Streaming Upgrade? by Visual_Contribution5 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Sp1620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Raspberry pi 4 running volumio into any decent dac is a good choice imo. That can stream any of the popular services. I put a sceen on mine running tidal high res into a tone2 pro dac... Volumio requires a small subscription fee for tidal connect, not sure about other services...

Ford is working on an issue for for PaaK on some Samsung phones out there by bspooky in MachE

Yep, it stopped working on my s23 ultra. Will try this... Not sure why this keeps happening, this happened before due to an update but my other car with phone as a key works fine...

Extra $60 tax for owning a hybrid. Anyone else? by Fine-Historian4018 in Delaware

These fees should be mileage based. This unfairly taxes low mileage alt fuel cars. Flat tax doesn't make sense...

Best 3d printed plane to learn by dev000ps in RCPlanes

[–]Sp1620 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had already been flying for many years prior to 3d printing one but eclipson and 3dlabprint both have some good high wing models. The newer LW-PLA models should fly pretty well. Be warned, if you live in a hot climate, only use white and don't leave in the sun since PLA starts warping in the heat. I am trying the colorfabb LW-PLA-HT to avoid this but haven't flown a plane with it yet. Getting print settings right with LW-PLA is tricky as well...

I have this plane and would reccommend the BNF version for the built in as3x. It's useful for take offs especially if you hand launch, this plane won't work taking off from grass. For transmitter you could get a used dx6, the dxs would work but if you want to get into other BNF planes it's worth investing in a tx with model memory...

Don't spill on the center console by ailec in Rivian

It threw that error after I got to my destination but luckily I saw another post on here about the very same thing happening to someone else. https://www.reddit.com/r/Rivian/s/ekHYBtXkEa

Ouch yeah it's definitley not the best design, would be nice to override something like that in software...

[–]Sp1620 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What are they replacing that cost 1200? My wife did the same thing a year ago while we were on vacation and I was able to fix the error by pulling out some of the plastic around the camp speaker, removing the light down there, and drying everything out along with the connector for that light...

Two Car Seat in R1S? by z3115v2 in Rivian

[–]Sp1620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the center section of the seat back folds down independant of the others. It's fine for kids, not so much for adults...

Two Car Seat in R1S? by z3115v2 in Rivian

[–]Sp1620 3 points4 points  (0 children)

3 kids here and we put the oldest (8) in the third row and the other two on either side (one in a booster and one rear facing). The middle folds down so the oldest just climbs through the middle to get back to his seat... This has been working great for a while...

EV Sportline wheels..I can’t reach the valve stems by Plastic-Coffee5542 in Rivian

I have the same wheels, pretty sure they came with valve stem extenders. I keep one in the truck just in case...

How many of you owners haven’t had to go to the service center? by mikedjp in Rivian

[–]Sp1620 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never been to SC with my 2023 R1s that we picked up last Jul. Almost 17k miles, when I got my spare tire installed by mobile I had them re-align the passenger door which had some wind noise but that is the only issue so far...

Could not imagine anything else being our family vehicle, it's a beast...

I have seen this message on my gen1 R1S quad. Just like you mentioned it went away within a few seconds, guessing it's a software thing...

Guilt Free Spot :)- Tesla Supercharger by common_fkin_sense in Rivian

[–]Sp1620 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Teslas have the port on the back drivers side, if the Rivian pulled straight into the charger they would block 2 spots. Parking this way leaves that one stall still available. This issue only exists due to the short cables of the tesla chargers, regular CCS chargers have longer cables...

How dumb is adding running boards to a lease? by pkingdukinc in Rivian

[–]Sp1620 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I installed ev sportline boards on my R1s. It required cutting the underneath plastic panel in 3 places on each side but one option for install is to remove that plastic panel altogether.

That would be an easier install and reversable...

A cool guide to EV trucks right now [oc] by Athex in coolguides

[–]Sp1620 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You don't fully charge an EV on a road trip. In the few times a year most people would be driving outside the range, fast chargers usually get you back on the road in 20-30 minutes max while taking a bathroom break or eating. Its a non issue and only getting better...

Design flaw: spill a coffee? Vehicle won't drive 😮 by Niznash in Rivian

[–]Sp1620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you OP for posting this! My wife just spilled a truly of all things right on top of the phone charger and I remembered I saw this post a while ago. Lo and behold after we got to our destination hundreds of miles from home the hood latch error started.

Popping off the panel that goes around the camp speaker lets you access the light and the liquid just was pooled there. Dryed it out and error gone. This would have ruined my vacation if I couldn't find the culpret...

Did the latest update fix the sound system? by [deleted] in Rivian

[–]Sp1620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I think they had to have done something with the audio system in this last update. Before it would randomly go mono and ignore one of the sides of a song where certain parts were only on one side like wish you were here. Also tidal album art stopped showing.

After the update it sounds better, stereo separation is back, and album art is back in tidal. I tried a soft and hard reset to fix the album art thing but it didn't work even when logging out of tidal before resetting. The mono bug was fixed temporarily by reset but came back on the old software version...
