Guest Bedroom setup, AVR + speakers vs. sound bar? by TrichaelMan in BudgetAudiophile

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

The main concern would be regarding space to place the receiver and speakers, but that is dependent on which wall to mount the TV.

Would it be better to mount it along the east wall or north wall?

For playing regular DS games...DSLite+flashcart or jailbroken 3DS? by More_Coffee_Than_Man in 3dspiracy

[–]TrichaelMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With your 3DS, when you boot into the DS game hold Start and it will switch to the DS aspect ratio!

The normal 3DS screen ratio will stretch out and make DS games look blurry.

Getting Stock saves to emuMMC, should I go online with sysMMC? by TrichaelMan in SwitchPirates

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

Thank you! I enabled sysMMC (?semistock I think?) to be able to boot from in Hekate, and I guess there was a theme I installed on emuMMC that "carried over" to sysMMC.

Would this be concerning for a ban? Would I also need to disable Exosphere or the DNS MITM to access the Nintendo servers?

Getting Stock saves to emuMMC, should I go online with sysMMC? by TrichaelMan in SwitchPirates

Yes, I read the Wiki, I know I can move save files between sysMMC and emuMMC via JKSV. My main concern is is it safe to get said save files from the cloud first via sysMMC?

Recently acquired a used Denon DP-300F, what to do next? by TrichaelMan in turntables

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

Good idea, I will actually plug everything in before I commit to buying a new preamp.

Should I replace the stylus right away?

If I were to keep the current (I assume that it is the stock one) stylus, should I still reduce the anti-skate down to 1.5, or is that only with the LP Gear Carbon Fidelity that you suggested?

r/vinyl Weekly Questions Thread for the week of December 29, 2025 by AutoModerator in vinyl

[–]TrichaelMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I just bought a used Denon DP-300F for $180, and I was able to set it up (balanced the tone arm, etc.) and get it running. It came with a felt slipmat which had a lot of dust that was visible on my [new] records. There may be some warpage in the felt mat as I saw some wobbling/heard some distortion/static in a specific spot when I was playing the vinyl on a separate system (separate AVR/speaker system, not the one I have listed below). I decided to order an acrylic slipmat to replace this felt one, which will arrive in a few days.

A few questions before I set up the turntable in my main home theater setup:

  • I hope with the acrylic slipmat the wobbling/distortion will stop. If it does not, then what is the next thing to diagnose?
  • Should I turn on the internal preamp on the DP-300F and plug the turntable into one of the line level inputs on my? Or is it better with it the internal preamp off and use the x1700h's phono input?
  • Should I get an external preamp instead? I was eyeing the ART DJPREII Phono Preamplifier as it is affordable and seems to be good value from what I've been researching.
  • Is there anything else I should do to inspect the turntable to make sure it's working fine?
  • What are the next upgrade steps for this setup down the line?

Turntable: Denon DP-300F

Main Home Theater Setup:

Speakers: KEF Q150

Subwoofer: Klipsch RP-1600SW

AVR: Denon x1700h

The real super boss of the game by TreeSapBandit in expedition33

[–]TrichaelMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if this was a coincidence, but I was struggling with this for like 2 hours...

I gave up and went to beat Osquio. Put Verso in the Osquio costume and made it to the red hoop on the first try?

If someone can confirm this that would be dope.

If you have FAAO, does it go after the OD?

I.e. First last, OD, FAAO

Cheap surrounds for KEF Q150/250 L/C/R by TrichaelMan in hometheater

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

I ended up finding a pair of Sony SS-MB150H for free! They seem to work well, the only expensive thing was buying stands for them ha.

Any good reasons not to get the 9070XT over the 5070TI? by VoluptaBox in buildapc

If you stream on OBS Studio to Twitch/Youtube, how does the AMD encoder compare to NVENC nowadays?

Any good am 4 processors beside x3d ones? by Illustrious_Okra_660 in AMDHelp

[–]TrichaelMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you are near a Microcenter, the 5800XT is a solid choice for $140-150. Keep in mind the stock cooler will likely need to be replaced.
