Recently had a $1K washer that was only a few years old fail, and the repairman sang the praises of a brand called Speed Queen. We ended up writing the old washer off and buying the TC5, and we're really happy with it. Has its tradeoffs (like everything) but our clothes have never been cleaner & it's built like a tank with a pretty great warranty.

After too many rounds with consumer crap we invested in commercial laundry equipment. Best investment ever. Works fine, lasts long time. Only change would be to add the coin operation metering for one of my sons that does all his laundry at our house.

^ Seems like people either need a new one every 2-3 years or they last 15+ years...

UMD was the format the original PSP used. Basically a disc in a plastic housing. Was a pretty decent solution to getting console style 3D gaming in a portable.

My favorite obsolete format remains laserdisc.

@atomicbob I do, as that’s how I learned a “bit bucket” is a physical thing.

I've been hoping against hope for years that he would find peace. I guess he has.

Mine arrive today! I am coming from a set of ER4XRs. They are good (really good actually), but I miss engagement from them (no slam, no soundstage depth). Also BA timbre... I expect these to sound more normal in this sense.

You have to mod them to get out of the 4k peak.

I've recently moved over to Android for the first time. It's caught up in most ways, and doesn't prevent you using your phone the way you want to. Plus it is 4x cheaper to get a phone with a large screen. The Samsung Galaxy "A52s" is tremendous value. Even so I'd still recommend iPhone to anyone non technical, budget aside.

My disappointment runs high. *shakes head accusingly*

I think mostly Apple now has some of the features I liked about Android and the differences are much smaller than ever before. My work is Apple only for email, so that too was part of it.

14.2mm driver in Timeless. 14.8mm driver in the S12, with more traditional IEM fit. Two prong plug though. Only two reviews on YT so far just posted in the last week.

@gixxerwimp XD I was already thinking that was the chinesiest brand name. Now the classic ad copy. Shuo er - without the hanzi guessing “shining ears”

SBAF will be getting an S12 loaner :)

Good lord... Looks like the opening shot of a dystopian disaster movie. I'm struggling to find other words to describe it.

Don't see any drivers online for it. are you operating at a redbook?

Redbook? You mean 16/44.1? It happens anytime in Windows 10 no matter what application.

Might check your PC for latency issues, some other program could be causing it: https://www.sweetwater.com/sweetcare/articles/solving-dpc-latency-issues/#

@Elnrik AND the deputy... oh yeah wait that was a cover too.

Bob Marley shot the sheriff.

@Soups "I prefer to know less and less about musicians' real™ lives."

Always have felt the same. Only recently looked into the history of some of my favourite music. One can wish one hadn't. Case: CSN. Sang some of my favourite songs. Better not to find out what they ended up thinking of each other.

nice stack, where is the jazz station

@Gazny Unfortunately the jazz station turned Americana a few years back. Nashville.

The speakers are Avantone Gauss speakers and the box at Alto is a Black Lion Audio Revolution 2.2 audio interface.

Yeah things are brutal right now. No idea they made port workers quarantine as well, that is nuts! I knew about the power outages, port congestions, and more as well.

Thanks @Lyander for the PM. I guess it is on a private part of the site and explains why it is nothing was coming up in search.

As I recall it was referred to as Gumbreya, fwiw.

@Senorx12562 thank you. I think there was a missed opportunity to mix Gungnir, Freya, Gumbo, and Jambalaya...Gumbofrelaya maybe?

Came off as a bit clumsy with words. I can relate.

U American? Is normal.

Thank you for the opportunity!

Yes thank you for letting me hear your precious! :)

any thoughts vs. SW51?

@yotacowboy Vali is thicker, exhibits more tube warmth, less slam but better bass texture, less overall clarity than SW.

@yotacowboy SW51 is still cleaner, wider, and digs deeper in the details. I was just took by surprise how updated the Vali 2+ and the immediacy you get. The reduced noise floor is amazing.

ooo... now I know what I can do with those stickers. That coaster of yours though is ace.

Get some Milos Lemonade, add some Milos Iced Tea to the mix, get some Jesus.

Heat index over 100 today. Looks the same for tomorrow. Maybe next week. It was 87 today in Jacksonville @YMO. Take your shirt off and relax.

Let's take off our shirts together on a Zoom call @Azimuth
