    sad, beautiful, tragic: the n&g taylor swift thread

    The more ostentatious lyrics aside, it’s kind of impressive how much restraint there is with the vocal hooks and the musical hooks. I can see how this could be boring but it feels like a solid, assured grower to me at the moment.

    Equipment Recommendations - The Home For New System and Upgrade Advice

    This is perfect for me. All I need to listen to records at decent sound quality in one 15”x25” stand (Andover subwoofer comes next week). I can stay in Los Angeles where I’ll never afford enough bedrooms to dedicate one to a full audiophile system and not sacrifice too much sound quality!!! My...

    Equipment Recommendations - The Home For New System and Upgrade Advice

    I lead a no-frills vinyl life with a needed small footprint, as evidenced by how I’ve just listened to records on a nice pair of Sennheiser headphones for years, so I’m thinking of getting a full Andover Spinbase setup with the Spinbase MAX and the subwoofer and the turntable stand they make for...

    Will Benson is the most adorable baseball player I’ve ever seen. I want him to achieve his full potential and tell him how proud I am of him.

    McClain had surgery this week and is out for the year more than likely. Noelvi Marte suspended for 80 games for PEDs. :-(

    Bought MLB.tv, have my tablet next to my work computer, ready to see which young Reds phenoms suffer a season-ending injury next.

    It’s happened in super quick real time over the last 2-3 days but, if you’ve followed the story, the shared story that Ohtani, the interpreter, and the PR/legal teams have put forth keeps changing to remove Ohtani further and further from the situation, to the point that he now had no knowledge...

    I wonder how much Ohtani is going to have “stolen” by his interpreter in exchange for his interpreter taking the fall in this. Serious question, how much would you need to get in order to agree to have your reputation ruined and have the most publicly notable, defining moment of your life that...

    Thank you all! We’re eying a Sony - 75" Class X80K LED 4K UHD Smart Google TV that’s on sale at our local Best Buy. Seems in our range and has good reviews and it’s available now which is important for a nightly Gabby’s Dollhouse marathon home like ours.

    Is there a non-vinyl electronics thread? My 8 year old Samsung 55 inch TV died and we want to replace it ASAP with something you’d find in a Target but it’s been 8 years since I kept track of TV technology and I see huge TVs that used to be $1000 for $400 and other new huge TVs that are $2,000...

    @kvetcha My assumption is that the tonearm is balanced only for that stylus/AT cartridges may not allow for easy upgrade swaps, so we can’t sneakily upgrade the stylus to a better AT model?

    Overall, I dig the player a lot. It allows me to play records when I normally wouldn’t be able to while working in my home office. Hopefully, I can get one that doesn’t have a stylus diamond that falls off if I slightly mishandle the manual tonearm.

    @Yer Ol' Uncle D I thought of that but I didn't want to send back the original return without a power cord, just in case Amazon does care and checks for all accessories and that could add the risk of not getting my refund. I hadn't noted that the first return was missing anything, just that the...

    @kvetcha I already packed the player up to send it back but the stylus looked in tact, unless the literal tip is a microscopic/very small tip at the end of what I am considering the tip of the needle. At any rate, I’m getting a replacement tomorrow and hoping for a better result.

    @Yer Ol' Uncle D Anti-skate isn't adjustable. Before it started acting up, the tonearm did accidentally skate across a side of an album as I tried to lift it. Wasn’t jarring or anything but maybe that messed up the tracking force somehow.
