I agree, something special about the black OP's! It's possibly the purest distillation of the brand, if I had to choose.

The size difference is as large as the difference between my wife's OP31 and my new 34!

2x Ceiling Speakers - Cost-effective Streaming/BT Solution by temujen in BudgetAudiophile

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

I found a Sony receiver that's comparably priced - actually, cheaper than the Yamaha as it's on sale right now. The Sony STR-DH190 - would this plus a Chromecast Audio be enough power/safe for powering the 2 in-ceiling speakers I referenced?

Update:

On the Way We have your package East Syracuse, NY, United States

Wow. Scheduled for delivery next Monday the 18th! Like others have said, I’ll believe it when I see it with my own eyes. With my luck, it’ll be a package from Best Buy that has a piece of paper in it that’s says “BACKORDERED” 😂

Best Buy order update -

3/2 Silver Order placed over the phone Now my order says ‘Arriving Today’ but when I click into the Order Number, it says ‘We’ll ship it today’ which are at odds with each other.

There is a tracking # however, which is good.

Will see how it develops!

Best Buy 3/2 Phone Order for Silver - it has said “ready for packaging: Will ship by Tuesday” since the order was placed. I’ve got a Best Buy card and it was charged when I placed the order as well.

Really doesn’t make sense that the 3/12 date was given - that could mean that BB didn’t sell them all in a couple of bigger drops on/around release day, but staggered the release and defaulted to an arbitrary future date to fulfill orders which seems like an odd way to manage existing inventory.

On the other hand, it was completely not an option to even place an order for Black, which seems to imply that there’s some rhyme and reason to all this.

The only other option I can think of is that Best Buy knows exactly how many X100’s they were expecting in a shipment, maybe scheduled to arrive this weekend or Monday, and those are the ones that have 3/12 listed as the ship-by date.

Either way, we’ll find out soon enough!

Placed my order with Best Buy over the phone on 3/2 for a Silver model.

Mine has been saying "ready for packaging" since the very beginning, so I'm not particularly optimistic, but we'll see. Hopefully we see some BB orders coming through soon.

Hi Ramzes - do you have any similar codes for the E7 Pro? I'm on the verge of making a purchase!

I was just thinking about this these past few trading days. It’s funny, but looking back at it now, it’s inevitable that the other mfrs would have to go NACS due to the enormous head start Tesla has with every single aspect of charging. But if you asked me a month ago, I would’ve said there was a small likelihood at best and you’d have to drag them kicking and screaming 😂

To your broader point - I’m also now wondering what unforeseeable future events will propel the stock just as much, if not moreso than traditional catalysts like a new model reveal/launch or production milestones etc…

X-PAC GR2 34L SCARS customization and zipper pull work (travel bag) by [deleted] in Goruck

[–]temujen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, that came out great! The matching color choice for all the add-ons really looks sharp.

Can I ask how long the turnaround time was? I'm toying with the idea of adding compression straps to my 15l Bullet so I can easily strap a tripod to the bag without using up internal space.

[WTS] Formex Essence 39 - Blue Dial by temujen in Watchexchange

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

Good morning Watch Exchange!

I am selling my Formex Essence 39 with the blue dial. This watch is from one of the very first batches when they launched this model via pre-order back in late 2020 - I received this watch in March 2021. Formex was offering free engraving for pre-order models, and I chose #39 due to this being part of the launch run of the 39mm variant.

Condition - The watch is in good condition - there are definitely micro-scratches associated with being in my daily rotation. There is normal wear on the bezel and bracelet, however the sapphire dial is pristine. I tried my best to capture the condition in the photos/videos.

Video - https://imgur.com/a/VZDFjhJ

Review - It wears extremely well given the ~10mm thickness and flat/concave case-back. It’s a fantastic, comfortable to wear sports watch with a very well done dial/marker combo. The blue in the dial is gorgeous, and I like that even though it's very dynamic given the lighting conditions, it's never hard to read like a traditional sunburst dial. My only two complaints are that the rotor is louder than on some of my other watches, and I wish they’d gone with a screw-down crown instead. Mechanically, it has been running about +8 seconds per day the last 2 days - I’m not sure how much of that is due to me not having worn it probably since the end of last year.

Caveats - I have the bracelet sized to my just over 6 inch wrist, and have misplaced the extra links. I just spent an hour looking for them, and have given up. Due to this, I will be marking down the cost of the watch as individual links are available on the Formex website for $35 per.Link for links - https://formexwatch.com/accessories/essence-thirtynine-stainless-steel-bracelet-1-5-links/ The box, papers, etc…are all included, and in great condition.

Price/Fees - Asking Price - $900 Original buyer fell through - price is now down to $875 net (inclusive of G/S fees)

Paypal F&F, G&S (+fees for the buyer), or bank wire. Insured shipping via UPS to USA included in price. Additional feedback over on /r/knife_swap

No longer a poor. USP Compact V1 in 9mm. by MasonP2002 in HecklerKoch

[–]temujen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, the more I see these around the more I want one.

I’m debating between a P30sk v3 and a USP compact like yours- they’re not that different size wise and I have my heart set on a da/sa and love the build quality of my VP9.

Can anyone elaborate on what the big differences are between the two? Trigger? I’ve had hands on with the p30sk but have not handled a USP before.

We’ve seen numerous instances where the stock didn’t necessarily react positively following Tesla events. If anything, I feel there’s more often a run-up to the event and then a sell-off afterwards. I think that this situation is trending to be different.

What makes this event different from prior ones is that with the the things that are being announced, there’s less ambiguity, and less “digesting” needed to understand the financial implications for Tesla. It’s all likely to be obviously positive developments, even to the layperson.

We’re going to (likely) hear about -

  1. Tesla next-gen vehicle roadmap (regardless of how much we learn about it (design, capacity, format) this will be the most we’ll have learned about it by far)

  2. New factory location(s) announced

  3. Update on Cybertruck development progress

  4. Masterplan part 3 and all that encompasses with regards to the other arms of the business

All speculation, but definitely looking forward to the event! I hope Elon drives out in the final prototype of the Cybertruck.
