    Minneapolis/St. Paul

    I lived in Minneapolis for most of the 1990s and moved to NYC in 2000. I used to visit Cheapos in Uptown every weekend and stock up on used CD's. There also used to be a small record store on the Nicollet Mall (I think it was called Let It Be Records) that had the best recommendations. Now my...

    Equipment Recommendations - The Home For New System and Upgrade Advice

    Thanks everyone. It seems the consensus is "harder than it needs to be" so maybe I will sit tight for a while.

    Equipment Recommendations - The Home For New System and Upgrade Advice

    Is there a consensus on best ways to connect phono to Sonos? I have Sonos throughout my house for casual listening/TV but my turntable (Fluance RT85) and preamp (NAD C 316BEE V2) are isolated in my office. I'd love to stream the sound of that system to my Sonos speakers. Have read some reviews...

    Television

    JJLs performance was almost a note-for-note version of her Hudsucker Proxy role, just slowed down to a lower BPM. But The Hudsucker Proxy is absolutely fantastic and criminally underrated in the Coen brothers filmography so I'm fine with that. I'd put season 5 of Fargo on par with season 2...

    The football thread RenegadeMonster is looking for: NFL talk

    I know I'm biased as a Seahawks super-fan, but you can't watch Pete's farewell press conference without acknowledging what a class act he is. Emotional, poignant, inspiring. I know change is inevitable (and it's probably time) but I'm really going to miss him.

    Vinyl Me Please (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

    I feel like I say this on every thread on this site, but I need to stop coming here because y'all give me ideas and I have no self-control. Now I've got that Blues Bundle on the way. Of course, if anyone is still thinking about joining and hasn't yet here's a lovely referral code for you. :)...

    Vinyl Me Please (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

    How do you find out if and when someone has used your referral code? I convinced a friend of mine to use my code for a 12 month subscription, which he said he signed up for a few days ago. I haven't seen anything in my account nor received any notifications. Curious if it just takes a while or...

    I nabbed the Screaming Females. Such a great band, sad they are calling it quits.

    Record Sleeve Recommendation Thread

    Some sets I have (El Mocambo, Cornell ‘77, etc) are 3/4” thick in their boxes and the Sleeve City box sets sleeves look HUGE on them. These sleeves are great for those as well as some of the deluxe editions that have come out lately. I’m just anal about “fit” I guess. That’s what she said…

    Record Sleeve Recommendation Thread

    I have! They are the only ones I have found that fit some of my thinner box sets properly. Good enough quality IMHO

    I have thin Backspacers as well and used some short finishing nails to secure them in place.

    Dead silence for me as well. They remain “unfulfilled” on my account page.

    Vinyl Me Please Classics

    Since these seem to be making a reappearance, I'd be grateful if someone took advantage of this code so I didn't feel compelled to use it on myself with a second email and take yet another step towards divorce and bankruptcy. 😜...
