Biodegraded

@dubharmonic It's not that people are blaming Discord, it's that people are pointing out that certain folk come from Discord servers (or reddit, or ASR, or wherever else) and kick up a mess because there's chance for opinions to foment and brain rot to ferment when talking only among like-minded folk in closed communities.

The bar analogy again. If you've just been at the sports bar, leave that to-and-fro at the door when you walk into the neighborhood pub to hang with the old crusties (and vice versa).

Fair enough.

Vancouver is close to me. This handy work must’ve been done by the same person that installed a sewer vent line in my house. https://i.imgur.com/S2brini.jpg

@Vansen that's a better job - I guess he practiced on the TT first!

@Azimuth My dad broke his mobile phone repeatedly so his wife (not my mother) couldn't bother him during the day. Maybe the fellow had to do it to get over vinyl. We all have our crosses to bear.

Gave mine to a buddy that was getting into audio a few years back, still in use to this day. Solid amp

Apparently I've been a mouse since my teens: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocktail_party_effect

As far as I can tell, I am not a mouse. Otherwise, my cat would have shredded me many years ago. My hearing is in decline, however.

Not sure if it's related to parsing S/N, but I find it harder to hear dialogue in movies nowadays. Could also just be Christopher Nolan ...

@gixxerwimp sure. Just considering his "musicianship", though, it's funny to see him on such a list.

Also, "… female genitalia is just massively understudied?"

Can't blame this one on the dawg: I've performed thorough observations and experiments.

@mediumroast so do dolphins. All the more tragic that neither they nor snakes have hands.

Now who needs hands with a snake‘s tongue? I havn‘t got a clue about dolphins‘ tongues

@JK47 just read the rule and it states that if the curvature of ball is on line from Top View then the ball is considered “in Play”

Yeah, they said upon further digital review, 17% of the ball was still in play, lol

Another photo made available - pretty close either way... https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/germany-japan-world-cup-goal-28634350

Gosh, you're right!

And I speak as a man whose dad was indeed called Ron.

"He decided to visit a doctor after buying a home endoscope kit that helped him spot a small white object."

Erm, maybe go see the doctor first?

"Man discovers bud had been lodged in his ear for five years"

Good thing it wasn't a buddy

Reminds me, I actually this https://www.future-forms.com/portfolio-item/crown-cd-10-compact-disc-player/

There was also a Sony version https://www.future-forms.com/portfolio-item/sony-d-88-cd-player/

"We are currently performing essential maintenance. Please come back later."

OK, Confess! Who broke A-T's site?

The site is back.

LOL to the sound burger! Celebrating, they say, 60 years of A-T!

Is this what shrinks mean by poor impulse control?

@E_Schaaf yeah and this isn't even a planar! @Justin S if so, maybe I'm now ready for therapy.

I'm no good at interpreting these charts, although CSD seems much more intuitive for us innumerates. Still, though, that impulse chart looks a bit like sound with flashbacks?

Oh wait, there's a name for that: echoes.

even comes with a section for sonic enhancers

And the big TV will fit on top.

Hey thanks for the shoutout. Doing ok here. Lost power for a bit under 24 hours, but now have half power back. Yes that’s a thing apparently (I had no idea). No water pump which sucks, but at least we have heat and some lights. Many others way worse than us.

Tomorrow is another day!

Yep, it was. No noise complaints - will have to try louder next time - and tonight, Rolling Stones Hot Rocks at lower volume for WAF.

Talking Heads FTW!

...ride an old Yamaha motorbike, I'll make sure the seat is secured to the frame by more than just my arse.

suspended driver acting as an isolation pad. Very cute, or simply skimping out on costs.

well-rounded midrange with some top-end emphasis and extension?

And a fat bottom end!

And plasticy timbre.

1975 Reflector. Not familiar with the "weird Russian timbre"; maybe sounds a little off in some indefinable way in the mids, or maybe it's just the contrast (more extension at both ends) vs the previous Heerlen A-frame making me think that.

Yeah, that indefinable off-ness in the mids. I thought some Fotons I tried had a lot of this.

I have been using the 6N23P (non EV) Reflektor for a good while in the SFD-2 and it's quite impressive. I think the upper mid can be a bit hot and upfront (just very slight) but the rest of the sound is excellent. Very linear from top to bottom and quite airy.
