"Hey baby, wanna go to the bar and watch me listen to records? I'll bring the big headphones to make sure I can't listen to anything you might say." That's one of the things wrong with that picture.

This might be a little more folky than your wanting and no flutes, but I love this album:

Anyone lucky enough to pick up the liquid filled Jack White release?
-
Maybe he's on the next next level and we either haven't caught up yet or just can't get there.

That eBay copy was a white label promo which some folks fiend. The Discogs copies look pretty beat.

Danno3000 said:Useful thread. I'm in the process of researching (half-heartedly) a listening set-up. Turntables I think I've got covered, but what about speakers/amps? I'd like to spend less than $2,500 and like the idea of floorstander speakers, …

TDLT02 said: Nice headshell on the Micro Seiki DD-40 deck. Is that a standard issue headshell with the DD-40 model, or is it from another (Japanese) company? That's standard issue for the DD-40. I have a Grace arm and headshell on the T…

If you're looking at older models, try to find one with as few features as possible. Overly complicated (auto start, playing multiple records, etc) ones seem to break too often. Auto stop is nice, but I added that to the Thorens with this simple sol…

dukeofdelridge said:CBear: looking good, but what's up with those bars? I don't know how my hands could get in that bend. (I guess it's more about your hands, but what's up?) So far, they feel fine. Maybe the photo is a weird angle. I didn't w…

My nice older Trek got stolen out of my garage over Thanksgiving weekend. I've barely been riding since then. Daylight savings time has given me the incentive to stop pouting and build myself a new bike. I've never built one from the ground up befor…

I can't stop listening to Com Truise and Airliner (same dude). It's a little more galactic than the stuff posted here, but definitely electro funk and I'd check it out if you haven't.

The Benz is the wife's car. She commutes 3 hours a day and wanted something really comfortable and safe. It gets about 28mpg. Not great, but not terrible. I drive this: It gets 38mpg, has 65,000 original miles on it, cost me $2800 …

VWs are great until the warranty runs out. Then sell it as fast as possible. I used to buy early 90's hondas with 90,000 miles on them for $3500 and sell them at 140,000 miles for $2500-3000. Never put any maintenance money in to any of them …

Both are poor decisions in my opinion. Buying used is the way to go. We picked up a Mercedes CLK320 for the wife in perfect condition with 66,000 original miles for $9500. Haven't had a single problem with it in the last 40,000 miles. Excepti…

For me it's changed over time. It started out because my mom gave me disney read-along 45 story books. Back then it was how people listened to music. Then in high school, I probably did it because it was cool. In college, I was into turntablism and …

Yes! I thought about hooking a portable up and suspending it somehow, but I worried about keeping vinyl in a hot car.

I was doing some research and just found out that Marantz did car audio. I think this would look great housed into a custom hardwood console next to some tape storage:

From the soulstrut 30 commandments: 1. If the inside ain't white, it's probably alright. 2. If it smells like dust, then don't you fuss. 3. Bar code? Don't pay a load. 4. Paste-on cover? Fork it over. 5. If the seam is split, you …

Lana'i, Hi. New Camera:

Is worthpoint any good? I've never bothered to pay for it. Is there one of these that focuses on books? I can always find asking prices, but not sold prices.

If you're planning on starting undergrad from scratch, I'd look into doing a community college transfer program where you get your gen ed stuff done for cheap and transfer to a better school for your final two years. That will save a lot of money. I…

I keep my comfort and style separate, but both are necessary. Front room gets a modern couch a la this thread. Lounge gets a crazy comfy sectional.

All my friends that went back to school in their late 20s / early 30s were very glad they did. I know a few people that went to business school recently and are looking at significantly higher income because of it. Their jobs are more challenging, b…

It was a couple months back. Dam-Funk and Matthewdavid. Matthewdavid did a funk set for the show that killed it. I enjoyed it more than Dam-Funk who was also great.

Or find a matching power amp for it. I have a separate pre and power and love the look/sound:

I like to hold on to the idea that the good items aren't planted, but rather they just show the good auctions and edit out the chud. Like poker on TV. Cosine on the unrealistic values they assign to crappy items when they're trying to defend how muc…
