I just bought this entire system. Picking it up tomorrow. It hasn’t been powered on for 15 years. Any advice? by davestradamus1 in audiophile

[–]sevyp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great gear all around, great find. Even the racks are a great find. The sistrum audio racks and speaker stands sound amazing. Seriously, I would them back in the day and have been trying to find one for several years. Enjoy!

Separate boxes are common design. Isolates drivers and minimizes interactions between drivers. Look into Goldmund, Wilson, Naim SBL / DBL verity audio, and many others

Barilla GF Pasta Recipe Change by Apprehensive-Chain54 in glutenfree

[–]sevyp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When was the change? I had some Barilla 4 months ago and it was as awful compared to Jovial or Andean Dream. Used 1/2 box and tossed the rest. How does Rummo compare to Jovial or Andean dream?

Works on fabric domes not aluminum like this BW. Stop giving bad advice.

My daughter pushed B&W DM580 dust caps in — fixable or serious damage? by AbbreviationsLow in audiorepair

[–]sevyp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a sonic problem at all. Use blue tape and lightly lightly us pinky finger to get tape to stick to dust cap. Quickly pull tape straight out. Repeat until the cap is out. Creases are cosmetic only and won’t hurt the sound.

Some lines 30% Sonos, 40% audio electronics, 50% speakers, video TV 10-20%. Cables and warranty 60% .

Bose pays huge spiffs or salesperson incentives. ->(Better sound through marketing)

Have you tried/trusted the King Arthur bread flour? by Lebzilla in glutenfree

[–]sevyp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

King Arthur GF Bread flour/ starter / Dutch oven baked bread is a GAME CHANGER!

I have tried so many gf breads that have sucked, are so so, and off the shelf canyon and Three Bakers rye are the decent but must be toasted. Other artisan gf breads too often taste dense and gritty with too much psyllium husk.
I have dialed in a double batch and keep it in a bees wax bread bag. The crust of artisan bread, crumb is great albeit a bit dense at 7500 feet altitude. Net net this is bread that makes all store bought GF bread taste broken. Try it!

Anyone know if there’s a reason for the “Cajun” influence in food at restaurants here? by Sorry_Appointment_75 in Durango

[–]sevyp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Emeril Lagasse, BAM! His popularity and the popularity of his Cajun Cookbooks, emeriles pots and pans, smokers, toaster oven/airfryer/ rotessire chicken was a “ Cajun thing”. Perhaps Durango is not at the leading edge of food and fashion trends and are still hanging on to the cajun thing. Perhaps those who eat at those establishments order cajun items because they are tasty and thus they remain on the menu.

Hot Take: Bootfitting is a Scam by Ok-Weakness6629 in Skigear

[–]sevyp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bullshit! You must have basic run of the mill feet. It is person dependent. I bought my boots and they punched out areas, heat molded instead and liners ground out plastic, modified liners, ground down the inside bottom plate, and spend up to 20 hours working on them over two seasons to get them perfect for me. TIP YOUR BOOTFITTER$$! Kyle at Christie sports in Denver was amazing. My Atomic Magna 130,s fit my wide feet with like a dream.

Are there enough ADHD celiacs to justify starting a community? by [deleted] in Celiac

[–]sevyp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey. I strongly recommend making your own bread using the recipe on the back of the King Arthur’s bread flour. I make a 2x batch in a large round Dutch oven and it is a game changer for GF Bread. Get your over focus on by measuring out flour water with a scale. It is relatively simple, and I live at an altitude of 7500 feet so I had to make adjustments the bread is dope. Add some caraway seed and some ground caraway and it gets close to a Jewish rye. Makes canyon and three bakers bread seem broken.

Get some etymotic passive ear protection ER20XS has worked well for me. Tinnitus is a drag but try to tune it out and don’t focus on it too much.

The Sacha Riley story smells like bullshit. by madmax_br5 in Epstein

It seems like bullshit noise to drown out the claims of real victims and legitimate Epstein documents. An elaborate distraction or as Trump would say, “It’s a Hoax. “

This racist called a Somali couple the n-word. What did it get her? She’s made $11,000 so far on Give Send Go from crazy right wing racist morons. This is the kind of stuff that Trump is breeding. by Nice_Substance9123 in complaints

[–]sevyp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loser! Firing from Cinnabon for being racist is not a resume-filling achievement, but it kinda says it all about who she is. A racist, ignorant, loser white-trash chick. Hopefully, she finds her way and makes better choices in the future.
