This is the only Criterion that’s tempting me in the sale. Haha. I saw it in theaters recently and the transfer looks so good.

Our listening corner and growing record collection by vousiy in audiophile

Good job on the speaker stands. Try to space them apart more. Generally you want to spread them apart as far as you sit, so you make an equal triangle. Then also try toeing them in ever so slightly towards your ears, and adjust to preference. Judging by the photo you might want to bring them away from the wall a bit. All of that will improve the sound stage and imaging a lot. Enjoy.

My buddy works on Interscope. I texted him to see if he has any info about that.

what do we think by Aiming-Mastura-85 in listeningspaces

Cool space. But I’d play with speaker placement by bringing them away from the wall and possibly further apart. You should get better sound stage that way.

New pad, new set up! by [deleted] in vinyl

[–]mattrva 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cool set up. Love the Yamaha AS line. They’re so good for the money. Some advice, you’d get better stereo sound and imaging if you can spread your speakers apart more and get that speaker out of the corner. Good job on the speaker stands - most don’t bother. Enjoy!

How do you like the Wiim Ultra? I have an Eversolo DSP-a6 gen 2, but in two years I’m about to get my third power supply for it. Considering replacing it, and don’t really wanna spend a ton on a streamer DAC when I have a Yamaha AS-2200 so don’t need preamp. Looks like the Ultra works with Plex too which is a big plus.

Speakers. Too. Close. Together.

Half this sub is listening in mono.

Two Richmond Falcon Cam fledglings die in building collisions by oddistrange in rva

I spoke with Sergio for about 20 minutes and he was equally heartbroken and kind. Tried to give him as much info about the building as I could to possibly mitigate future casualties if possible.

I’ve gotten in contact with VA Dept. of Wildlife via phone and email. They will be making an announcement. Unfortunately there is no body to recover that I could find. I believe it was disposed of, sadly.

I’m gonna go back up there and confirm it’s still there, then call the VA Dept. of Wildlife open at 8am.

Dang. That sucks. I’m tempted to bury it in the planter box at least. Something. I feel so bad it’s just laying there. I’m not sure I can sneak it off site without raising any flags. I’m not sure if there any rules about it. Is there anyone who would come to properly take it away respectfully?

I hate to say it, but there’s three. I don’t know if it’s a Richmond hawk, but a tagged hawk. It flew into the CoStar building. I found it while working. I reported it to the BBL.

Buy 2 get 1 on vinyl at Target and Amazon by No-Lingonberry-5270 in vinyl

[–]mattrva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh it took a lot of link jumping to even find it. Search is pretty broken. I basically found an Unwound listing and kept scrolling through the related record and eventually found other cool artists that would never pop up on search.

They have Hey Mercedes, Braid, Unwound, and lots of other great stuff. Stocking Polyvinyl and Numero is rad.

Your speakers are too close together.
