My wife and I recently bought a new home, and I'm slowly getting things set up. There is still a lot to do. Will be building 2 more wall crates in the coming weeks. Also will be adding a chair to the left next to the lamp, which will become my headphone listening station. (Any recommendations...

Citizen Vinyl is worth stopping by also. They press vinyl there, have a great little cafe (excellent espresso), and a small store.

Whoa, how have I not heard of this?!

Ditto this!

My phone autocorrected dac to fact. I bought it partly because I figured it's internal dac is better than whatever is iny Onkyo receiver. Sure sounds better to me. But now I'm curious how much better a separate dac could be? How much would I have to spend to notice it?

With those quotes, is there something about the fact I should know?

You know, I think I'm wrong. I think this is the 3rd gen Node. I just assumed because when I went to buy it, I was searching for the 2i and this is what came up when bluesound's site said they were out of stock. So, cool, I stumbled into it

Are you serious? Damn it. I literally just bought a 2i from Crutchfield last week. Had no idea there was a 3rd generation. What did they upgrade?

Oof, my copy of this one (not the club version) has the same thing. It's soooo bad. I love this album and the vinyl is almost unlistenable.

Thinking about subscribing to this. Are there any coupon codes for the 12 month sub?

Well, fuck. I knew I should have checked here first before signing up for this!

Out of curiosity, what about the ortofon makes you not want to use it, and what DO you recommend for cleaning them?

Well, damn. My box was quite beat up when it arrived.

Ooooh, excited to see what I get! Hoping for the same albums, as I already have Speak No Evil.

I listened to three different albums today with my headphone setup (Bottlehead Crack and Sennheisser HD6XX) and it was such an absolute joy. If I hadn't had family things planned with my partner and kids, I'd just have kept listening all day. I just want to go re-listen to every album I own.
