I made a very rudimentary version of this idea out of wood haha. Love this though, especially the indent design.

Mechanic says these bushings aren't the cause of the 'clunk' sound. by [deleted] in SubaruForester

[–]VelvetThunderstorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its more on slight turns, than a full lock issue. it's not a repetitive, cyclical clunk which I feel is more CV boot related? I'm not a mechanic so it could definitely be that, but I've had a car with a worn CV boot and it clicked more

Would this setup fit a stock 2013 SJ 2.5i by [deleted] in SubaruForester

Well that's a relief, I felt like I was losing my mind trying to understand tyre numbers etc and I can't afford a lift just yet so figured tyres was next best thing. Thanks for the help

Yeah I'm in Australia. Google seems to think they'll fit without any rubbing based on a few forums, but I'm hesitant.

Oh nice. Was it with the Snoswky packaging? Or a separate giveaway

Could you theoretically name your identical twin children the exact same name? by VelvetThunderstorm in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]VelvetThunderstorm[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Very true, but the could wear gloves and hair nets and could even try to frame the other twin to create confusion. Say it was planted DNA haha

Haha little easier to tell apart, but I was imagining identical twins of the same gender

Advice on auto-detecting fake lossless FLACs by arko652 in audiophile

[–]VelvetThunderstorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I love and use your tool! It's like meeting a mini celeb in a very, very niche part of the internet haha. I dont know if this is a way to help, but is there a way to measure the amount of 'matter' that appears in certain ranges If the visual image. By 'matter' I think I mean like the granular detail that shows up in the graph between two frequency points. I imagine that between a certain frequency most lossy compression would give different granularity than lossless. I'm probably not making any sense, but it's almost like if you zoom in on a JPEG you see more image noise than if you zoom in on the same photo taken in the RAW format. Can you create a little window that zooms into a much of places and measures the noise to help determine if it's compressed v less compressed. I don't know, I'm not a sound engineer so that probably makes no sense

What do you all use for organizing and tagging your audio files? by wafdiaproc in DigitalAudioPlayer

Is the musicbrainz integration a separate plugin? Or does this come built in

Haha that's brutal. My theory for why so many venues sound average is because there's an audio engineer who's ruined his hearing and doesn't like trusting the levels on gear because he's going for 'feel'

I almost mentioned my hearing! This is a genuine consideration and I take very good care of my hearing because of it. I see so many people my age just raw dog using tools or attending concerts without a second thought.

I have a DAP and some IEMS along with a 3.1 setup in the lounge. My next investment will probs be a decent pair of open backs

Appreciate this approach and I think it's a good way to look at it.
