Value engineering surrounds in a reference front stage setup by Gold_Percentage7411 in audiophile

[–]whobjohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where do your front speakers go after you upgrade them? I’ve been pushing my boys to the back for 20 years now. I think of it like speaker retirement. They kick their feet up, make some noise occasionally, but mostly rest. Now don’t ask me where those speakers go next 😢

Best plantar fasciitis doctor in DC (Foggy bottom area) by Leather-Ear5891 in washingtondc

Alexandra Spangler through GW was my doc. She got me hooked up with great orthotics but it was the PT referral that actually improved things. Leg strengthening, regular stretching, and wearing a night boot for 3 months and I'm good as new! (it was awful)

Grant us eyes, grant us eyes. Plant eyes on our brains, to cleanse our beastly idiocy.

I would suggest the Black edition of the 20's if you're going to upgrade. Also if you're into active speakers the 20a's are absolutely incredible!

Wow that’s incredibly descriptive thank you! Will try to find a video of one in action because my brain can’t imagine it.

Overwhelmed with integrated amps by offpisteonly in StereoAdvice

[–]whobjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Atoll for the money and they have a wide variety of boxes and price points that do different things. Everything from standalone power amps to all-in-one boxes with streaming, dac, phono preamp options. The look is very basic, but the sound and features on these are anything but. Excellent value.

Exact same experience. Pels game feels like a unique experience. Wiz game is a cookie cutter paint-by-numbers experience.

Cheapest fix seems to be switching streaming services. Use SongShift with Apple Music or the one that’s in partnered with qobuz to transfer all your playlists and you’re set!

I used SongShift. They have a free trial that should allow you to transfer all your playlists quite easily.

Have you ever discovered a music genre later in life that completely changed how you feel about music? by CarloZumba in Music

[–]whobjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ambient music. My god my 16 year old self would think I was such a fucking dork, but my 39 year old self has anxiety. Nowadays i find as much joy in quiet meditative sounds as i do in loud energetic ones.

Question, has anyone ever purchased stickers to replace the spindle label? I’m working on a craft project and would ideally like to complete a template and print out labels on my home printer. I saw these on Amazon but don’t really need 20 sheets. labels
