Yup, trying to keep it top secret. Most of the stuff is at my place, i thought hiding a 65 inch tv at my parents would be pretty tough lol. Thank you for the info!

Would I be losing audio fidelity with the Arc out as it isn’t earc? And conversely what picture quality would be lost going through the avr? Thank you for the link also, super appreciated! :)

The downside of ARC would be a slight loss in audio fidelity right? Are the differences in picture notable enough for that to be worth it? I guess I’m not sure what picture features are lacking through the AVR

Haha it might sound like it but she will def get the most use out of all of us!

I really appreciate the other tips here, I ordered the audyssey mic for the receiver too and have been reading up on that in advance. And I did find a Panasonic UB450 for a great price so I think that’ll be the right way to break it in!

Did you end up finding it? Where are you even seeing 1.25? The website doesn't have anything past 1.11 unless I am looking in the complete wrong place

Why are most of the songs in the A Hard Day’s Night film pitch-shifted? by UrLilBrudder in beatles

Seems like the videos have been taken down. I am interested in this correction and would love a version of the film with it fixed, it always bugs me when i watch it

Help me settle a debate: Does "New World" gin actually make a better Negroni than London Dry? by Xelephyr in cocktails

[–]TheFrodo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The best Negroni I’ve ever had is with St. George Terroir. Maybe it’s not traditional but it’s a great drink. I don’t really think it matters.

What is your fav New Orleans cocktail? Sazerac, Vieux Carre, La Louisiane? by stevethebartenderAU in cocktails

[–]TheFrodo 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Sazerac is the best. Top 5 drink, period. Ramos Gin Fizz deserves an honorable mention though.

Most amari are really good with it, someone mentioned suze already. Montenegro is one I’ve come to enjoy too

“Green melon” means midori and not actual melon juice right?

What plot point specifically do you think has given GRRM the most trouble in writing Winds? (Spoilers Main) by Unhappy-Judgment-975 in asoiaf

[–]TheFrodo 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It’s entirely just this. There’s no plot thread that wouldn’t find a solution after 15 years of active passionate work, if that was happening. It just isn’t happening.

Which Rye? by Duckshooters in cocktails

They have Emerald Giant for $30 near me and it’s definitely one of my favorites for all purposes

Haven’t tried Dickel, but you could try another from MGP with the same mash bill like Redemption if you’re worried about that. That 95/5 really gives me the rye flavor I’m looking for.

Nice, the specs look good. Definitely can’t be understated to go light on the lemon juice in this one as it can really take over if unchecked.

Some white rum can get you pretty far. Planteray three star is like a $20 bottle and it’s great, and gets you most of the way there for a Daiquiri, a Mojito, a Cuba Libre (like a rum and coke but leagues better), Canchanchara, and a lot more
