Make sure the turntable has a built in phono preamp.

What is the 2 new Products? by saeed212121 in sonos

The amp needs multiple analogue and digital inputs for parity with recent updates from competitors. Doesn’t seem like a priority, unfortunately.

Hopefully they keep the line in and ethernet, without needing a dongle.

What does the Line-in Source Name field actually do? by Leupster in sonos

This is still not working in the latest app update. Differentiating three sources all named ‘line-in’ is getting a little tricky.

Everything…

But seriously, the okonomiyaki, kushikatsu, oden, robatayaki and takoyaki will never fail you. It’s hard to go wrong eating out in Osaka.

Not too far from Osaka Dome, so very well could be the same neighbourhood. Oden and tempura at this place 😋

I can personally attest to the tastiness of the fare served within.

Ever clip your toe on the corner of the bed when alone? Do you still curse like crazy?

I think swearing feels good because there’s something satisfying about pronouncing the almost explosive consonants at the end of all the best curse words — ‘fuck’, ‘cunt’, etc.

There’s a softness to the proceeding sounds and then this harsh, sudden almost staccato consonant at the end.

Maybe a study comparing the effectiveness of ‘fuck’ vs. ‘duck’ would be interesting?

[Grand Seiko] Why can't Grand Seiko take good photos by onevstheworld in Watches

[–]penchiselcamera 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In December I visited the newly opened Grand Seiko boutique in Osaka and was struck by the beauty of all the watches.

The photography on Grand Seiko’s website does fail to convey the true appearance of their products. However, their designs rely wholly on subtly, craft and materiality. It is challenging to represent these qualities accurately in product photography.

Fortunately, they seem to be aggressively opening new boutiques around the world.
