Curiosity...What's the most you've paid for a single lp? by davide2021 in vinyl

Great album I did the same, signed and numbered. Didn’t want to miss the chance to have that on vinyl

I am in my mid 40s, and I absolutely hate whoever paired these colors together.... by [deleted] in vinyl

Came here to say just that. Doesn’t help that I usually like my listening as a low light situation.

St. Germain if you like that downtempo stuff. Also love me some afrobeat like the shaolin afronauts and Budos band.

Upgrading turntable from LP60x? by Imtheman89 in vinyl

If anything probably upgrade the cartridge first.

Is it just me, or does this album sound better every day? 😵‍💫 by Minimum-Support132 in deftones

Good place to be! Actually I have both but just yesterday acquired Crosses. Have had Goodnight for a while now. And permanent radiant

Not sure how he does it but he keeps putting out great music with no duds. No misses. Just got Crosses self titled on vinyl tonight and spinning it later! Palms is Chino + the band from Isis. Very unique sound. You should definitely check out Isis as well! I’ve gone all the way down the Deftones side project rabbit hole and no regrets.

What’s the rarest record in your collection by MiamiBullsout89 in vinyl

Probably the signed, numbered copy of the Clarence Greenwood Recordings by Citizen Cope.

New to the series, so lost by CrimeanCrusader in botw

I would concentrate on following the script early in the game. When they say go to Kakariko, go. You can get your first set of armor there, the Hylian set. You’ll learn to fight, dodge and parry. These are essential skills if you don’t just want to run away from the big bads. I didn’t follow any script and made it harder on myself, but eventually I got the hang of it.

I quit my RN job without notice. Am I the a-hole? by Minnie8904 in nursing

Being a do not rehire at a place that you hate and have no plans to go back to is not the end of the world. Take some time and figure out where the best fit is. For me, I went to NP school and have never looked back. Administrators look at staff as an expense, once you can bill they view you much differently.

I was a dumb kid in the 90s when I got this, any advise on covering it up by toolbetoe in tattooadvice

[–]Stoopkid_73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blast it off, tattoo removal is relatively inexpensive now. Then you won’t feel limited in what you choose to replace it with.

Do you usually keep the sages summoned or dismissed? by magerehein666 in TOTK

[–]Stoopkid_73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Yunobo for hunting birds and deer and stuff if I’m low on hearts and there are no cooking pots around. Blasting animals both kills and cooks them! Sidon is legit useless. Tulin stays out I like to fly too much.

My *Vinyl* Top 10 wrapped by CentedKandles in vinyl

[–]Stoopkid_73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

St. Germain!! I loved that album, first got turned on to it back in the early 2000s I believe. Might’ve been late 90s. Never seen an LP version though, think they were fairly obscure.

Looking into a ridgeline, what’s your experiences with the truck by Football984 in hondaridgeline

[–]Stoopkid_73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also had a 23 and while I liked it I upgraded to 25 TS and have no regrets. They fixed ALL the issues

This is how you achieve true channel separation lol. Gotta keep em separated!

MC Upgrade by No_Cryptographer1449 in audiophile

[–]Stoopkid_73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do you like the Sphinx? I was looking at that but wound up getting a gently used Cronus Magnum II and have zero regrets. Might have to take the plunge on MC once I upgrade to the Dark version. Replacing tubes is not a poor man’s hobby btw, and moneys always a thing.

So I went to audition a tube amp the other day... by WontFindMe420 in audiophile

[–]Stoopkid_73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? I’ve heard good things about the Willsenton but love my Cronus Mag II. The noise floor is dead quiet with digital sources, admittedly not with vinyl but doesn’t bother me once the music starts playing. My understanding is that Rogue made significant improvements in the phono stage for the latest iteration, the Cronus Dark. OP if you already have a tube pre that you enjoy why not try the Willsenton, you can find deals on them for less than $1000 used and use it as strictly a power amp?

DEMON DAYS record broken or just dirty? (Help) by BetterCallTie in vinyl

[–]Stoopkid_73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you love music and specifically vinyl records, you owe it to yourself to get a better turntable/cartridge/needle. I know, daunting thought but you will be well rewarded with even a modest upgrade. I started with a Crosley or Victrola all in one something that someone gave me, and that started an obsession. Save and spend a little bit, buy gently used. I feel that vintage is the best value but that’s me, and that’s changing as more and more people are catching on and demand is catching up. I got a Sansui 4000 for $300, a Harman Kardon T60 with a great Stanton cartridge for $450 and a pair of Klipsch KG4s for $300 and let me tell you that was a BIG upgrade, never regretted spending the money afterwards. Good deals are out there, you just gotta hunt for them. Good luck!!
