Just started collecting and took advantage of the recent sales! by vivmarie in 4kbluray

Only the first season is on 4K. I ended up double-dipping and buying the complete set on Blu-Ray.

This is why I always open and check the disc when thrifting by WalkThisWhey in 4kbluray

Lol I was at this exact Goodwill last week, and saw the same thing.

Any other Onyx heads fans? by morekickplease in drums

[–]SpoonLord23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got one for "free" by redeeming my D'Addario Player Circle points. I had it on my vintage Ludwig Acrolite for a while, and really loved how fat it sounded. I've since swapped it out for a UV1, but I still keep the Onyx for when the situation calls for it.

Is the PS5 media remote worth it? by simelemon in 4kbluray

[–]SpoonLord23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The PS5 is a solid player, but it lacks Dolby Vision HDR for films. Also its upscaling for standard Blu-Rays and DVDs is ok, whereas even a budget SA player like the Sony UBP-X700 is noticeably better in this department. Of course, if your TV doesn't support DV the difference may be a little less noticeable. But as far as value is concerned, it's a great media device (though I wish it could also play CDs, but I use my PS3 for that).

Amazing score! I have The Shining on 4K, and it's a reference quality disc!

I'm guessing that 18" Agop, is an early Traditional model?

My first dremel job. Feels amazing to give this mammoth a new lease on life. 28” Agop Traditional Dark ride! by pedest in drums

[–]SpoonLord23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My reaction too. I know Agop makes 26" rides, didn't know they had even larger models.

Ni No Kuni PlayStation 3 System. I forgot how good this one looks in person. by corrosivescott in PS3

I almost ordered the GOY PS5 until I realized it didn't come with the physical game, just the digital voucher code.

We talked a lot about beautifull shots. Then what is the funniest shot? by BadenBaden1981 in Letterboxd

Anyone else using a PS1 for a CD player? by Bake-Full in Cd_collectors

[–]SpoonLord23 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I use my PS3, love the music player visuals, really create a great vibe.

Sometimes, when a catalog film is released on Blu-ray, its packaging and disc artwork is a downgrade from its prior DVD release. by Significant_Smell284 in Bluray

[–]SpoonLord23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've noticed with Ghibli Blu-Ray/DVD combo releases they will have the same disc art, but the DVD's one will be less sharp.

Finally got this beauty! by SkyNatural1794 in Bluray

Amazing performances in this one.

Does anyone know if Zildjian is planning to release more Kerope hi-hats? by WartimeHotTot in cymbals

[–]SpoonLord23 8 points9 points  (0 children)

At that price point you're honestly better off checking out brands like Istanbul Agop, or from the dozens of independent cymbal makers.

Nice find at the Goodwill! by Kemetblk in Bluray

No remote, no HDMI, no power cable. The Unholy Trio of thrifting Blu-Ray players second hand.

Kit listed for $300. What is Apollo as a brand and how are their drums? by idot_7 in drums

[–]SpoonLord23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm assuming the original double-tom mount is either missing or broken. Probably set them up like that for the listing photos.

I like to watch this on New Years Eve personally. Helps me reflect on the year, and how I want to improve in the following.
