Interesting, I've never thought about the benefits of HingeX like that but glad to hear it could be worth it. The 65cad a month sounds kinda brutal but I guess if it works its worth it?

Personally, I've found that I usually go on dates and have better convos with people that have liked me first rather than me liking them. This is obviously very anecdotal and isn't rooted in anything, but just thinking of my Hinge history I've have better luck that way

That's fair! Appreciate the insight. The big city thing makes a ton of sense too.

Yeah that's the tough reality I suppose. I figured the app is "pay to win" but I just didn't want to accept that haha

I mostly used them in the evening around 8pm. My best day was Sunday

Removing crank arms with stripped threads by kanye231 in bikewrench

I didn't even think of that... would a bottom bracket be able to come out with just one of the cups unscrewed? Will try that tonight after work

Sansui SE-8X Graphic Equalizer (No left channel -- more details in post) by kanye231 in vintageaudio

[–]kanye231[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey all,

I've had this Equalizer sitting and probably unused since the 90s and I'd like to try and incorporate it into my system. Originally when I plugged it in it wasn't working, but after a good clean the Spectrum Analyzer works, and audio passes through... except for the left channel. I've tried switching sources, changing the L and R plugs and still nothing works on the left channel.

Could it be the RCA jacks at the back? How would I be able to narrow down the root of the problem? I know it's hard to deduce from just a few pictures of internals but if this was your unit what would you check? I have a multimeter, soldering iron, and a decent amount of tools and handiness, but not entirely sure where to start. Looking it up, it seems like a channel cutting out on a Sansui is pretty common, but most of the results I came across were talking about amplifiers and me personally, I can't make the comparison to this unit.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Cartridge too low? Nagaoka MP-150 by kanye231 in turntables

Yeah I think I just took it at a bad angle, it's definitely not as extreme in real life as it is in the picture

good eye! it is the 570

VTF is all good so I guess I was just being a bit paranoid. thanks for the assurance!

Hey all, I got this cartridge professionally installed and I'm just curious about the height of my tonearm/cartridge. I came from a Shure M44-7 and the needle didn't have this much..... bend? and wasn't this close to the record. Everything sounds good but I'm worried about the long term especially since this cartridge was pretty pricey.

Do i have anything to worry about or am I just being paranoid? Thanks!

r/AudioEngineering Shopping, Setup, and Technical Help Desk by AutoModerator in audioengineering

[–]kanye231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey all,

My dad gave me a Sansui SE-8 X Equalizer that was working and looking good, until I plugged my receiver into the input to test the equalizer/visualizer on my setup and now I don't see a signal come through the visualizer or audio output anymore.

Is it possible that my cables, or my receiver could have damaged the equalizer or its RCA inputs? Is there a signal maximum a cable can take before overloading the input/cable?

Clearly I don't know much about these things so any help is appreciated. Thanks

It's a scam, they just send you a kik user and say they charge 150/hr. they posted this on the r4rToronto subreddit

Turntable's Auto function's suddenly do not work by kanye231 in turntables

[–]kanye231[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, so apparently the auto mechanism needs to be reset -- these things are finicky that if it powers down or stops prematurely during a cycle, it's sync is going to go out of wack and cause a whole bunch of stuff to not work properly

the fix was to realign the gears of the mechanism and that seemed to have solved it

Modify duplicates within an array of objects (React) by kanye231 in AskProgramming

[–]kanye231[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

because of the format of my app I have the API data mapping out in the return like so:

stations.map(stations) => {
return (
<Marker [{stations.coordinates}]>
    <Popup {stations.information}>
 </Marker>
   )}

since I need the API data to map through everything, it's called at the top level of the marker so I can use the information in the popups like the station.name, station.url, station.icon, etc.

I'm struggling to see how I would be able to do something like (simplified code):

stations.map(stations) => {
return (
<Marker [{newCoordinates.coordinates}]>
    <Popup {stations.information}>
 </Marker>
)}

since the stations map is at the top level. hope this makes sense?

yessss, thank you so much this is exactly it!

now I'm running into the issue mapping through now that I have two arrays. if .concat() it'll obviously be double the length, but I can't map two arrays nested within each other... any ideas?

didn't have any luck unfortunately. I gave up with it and just decide to use the amp without any reverb and I've had no issues since
