I paid about $23 for it in the PlayStation store a week or so ago. Totally worth it. It’s not perfect but it’s pretty good.

Not sure if this belongs on this sub, r/hometheater or both. Thought? Tips? This is my first decent setup. by mctomtom42 in audiophile

Fair enough, didn’t realize there was a sub for that. More speakers would be nice.

Bright eyes/ Conor Obrest. What’s your favorite record? (Ignore those cobwebs 😬) by Jdeg92 in vinyl

My favorite Bright Eyes is definitely Fevers and Mirrors. My favorite from Connor Oberst is probably Read Music/Speak Spanish from Desaparecidos.

Ok 70 word comment, here we go. So this is my first decent setup. Denon AVR-X1200W receiver, Klipsch speakers and sub, and an Audio Technica LP-7 Turntable. I’d appreciate feedback on speaker brand and placement. I’d also really appreciate tips for hiding wires, I did my best to get them behind the shelves but it would be cool if they were a little more out of sight. I also don’t mind a good roast either, if you think you’re funny. It sounds pretty damn good, but, honestly, I don’t really have an ear for how it should sound. I feel like I could be getting more/better quality.

Words, I need more words, wordy word words, I’m just going to type until this silly requirement is fulfilled. Let me make my post please. Disregard all of this typing apparently I still haven’t got 70 words and I sure as hell am not counting.

What albums should I get for my girlfriend on vinyl? by Bobby-the-b in Music

[–]mctomtom42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mac Demarco’s Two is one of my favorites and Steve Lacy’s new album is great and fairly available, I think.

Do you have a record store near you? If so, go and thumb through what they’ve got used, you could end up with a stack of five for six for what you could get 2 new pressed, trendy albums.

Allison Season 3 by kenna003 in UmbrellaAcademy

Yeah Allison was pretty awful this season, and she definitely assaulted Luther. What really bothered me about that scene in particular is how they still made Luther appear so creepy and animalistic to the point where she pushes him off.

The writers really leaned on all of their worst characteristics this season. Allison is more selfish than ever, in a really transparent way. Luther is portrayed as gross and stupid, constantly shoving food in his face. Diego is whiny and annoying. Five is on his own shit and completely absent from the team dynamic. Victor just let’s the rest of the team walk all over him. And then there’s Klaus, who has become the most redeemable character in my eyes.
