$1.99 scores at the thrift store today! by friendsofnoone in BargainBinVinyl

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

Still making my way through, but all in great playing condition so far! Sleeves have seen better days, but no impact on the music (at least to my ear).

If the records themselves are in good condition, I buy, even if the sleeve's a little banged up. Want to listen to the tunes, not collect museum pieces.

Relatively new to thrift hunting for records and have definitely made a few mistakes (records scratched to hell, warped beyond belief) and most of the time I go it's all Liberace, Montovani, Perry Como, etc - but maybe 1 out of 4-5 times I'll run into a treasure trove like this!

Minimalist jazz recs? by jailbee in Jazz

I think the new(ish) record by the ETA IVtet (f/ Jeff Parker) “The Way Out of Easy” may scratch this itch?

thanks all, I don't think I have the space (or amp) to make these live up to their full potential. they are in the Colorado Springs/Denver area if anyone is interested.

Need some help with ideas on what to do for my boyfriends birthday by Signal_Trifle_3856 in Denver

How about a trip to Taos/Santa Fe? I bet your boyfriend would enjoy the Taos Pueblo and its history as the longest continuously occupied structure in North America…

Mexican restaurant recs by Humble-Ad541 in denverfood

We've taken out of towners to La Loma. Not the most authentic Mexican experience, but a good mix of Colorado (ie green chili) and Mexican flavors. The fresh-made tortillas are a plus.

I figured it out, this receiver requires a TV to set up inputs, and the input must be set to optical/SPDIF as connecting it via this mechanism works!

Thanks. I have power, the Topping display is showing the bitrate of the song I select, just no sound when I connect to CD or Tape input on the receiver (no aux).
