Best lineup in several years I'd say. Saturday is definitely stacked. Here's what I'm seeing before running through it in detail... Fri: Rage, RTJ, King Gizzard, Charli XCX, GRiZ, Chicano Batman, IDLES, Daphni, Peggy Gou, Tokimonsta, Amyl & the Sniffers Sat: Thom Yorke, Flume, Danny Elfman...

SO! Part 1: Last summer I picked up a Musical Paradise MP-301 Mk 3, and the tube recommendations as suggested by @HiFi Guy. Paired with the Polk LSiM 705s, it was a pretty stark contrast from my Parasound Halo, as you'd imagine. Two entirely different beasts. I found myself preferring the mid...

I haven't been spending much time on these forums lately, because life. But I have 6+ months of equipment updates to catch you guys up on. Should get some time in the next week to give a rundown. Stay tuned...

Can't speak to this tour yet, but I imagine it'll be much of the same as their previous three or four tours (and those videos above seem to confirm)... Adam left, Justin and Danny right, Maynard (likely in a weirdo random costume) on a platform left-center, staying back in the shadows most of...

I had to pay $140 for mid level tickets to their San Diego show. I cry. One of the few bands where that $ is worth it though. After getting shut out of the LA shows last month, I am beyond excited to be seeing them for the 6th time in January.

I had an opportunity to listen to the Hugo TT2 + MScaler combo this weekend. Words cannot describe... (but I will attempt, briefly) I've never heard music so detailed, so lush. My ears aren't the most well-traveled in the audiophile world, but this is simply the best home audio experience I've...

Jokic really needs to work on his hairstyle if he truly wants to be a Dirk/Nash hybrid though.

Sorry woob. I'm trying to be patient and reserving judgement until at least December, but this is clearly an entirely different Suns team than anyone thought. We play hard, we play like one unit, and Booker finally doesn't have to carry the entire team on his back. Coming into the year I was...

Good take. 2-1, beating the Clippers (without two of our starters) and only losing to the Nuggets in Denver in overtime so far. This team looks like a completely different animal than years past. There is actual cohesion and pieces working together, rather than a random collection of 19 year old...

Welp. https://vmp-anthology.vinylmeplease.com/ghostly

Might be the first Anthology I get. Ghostly is a great label, I dig a lot of their artists. Probably will be a good selection for non-electronica inclined people as a jumping in point.

I always forget there’s a baseball thread here (and a misc forum, generally) - I love playoff baseball - Really hoping for a Nats/Astros World Series. Has there ever been a better potential starting pitching matchup than Scherzer/Strasburg/Corbin vs Verlander/Cole/Greinke? Every game would be...

Hmm... - Pearl Jam, but will probably wait and pick it up later with 13k total pressed - Bill Evans, maybe - Rodrigo Y Gabriela, maybe - The Doors, intrigued but unlikely - Dave Matthews Band, intrigued but unlikely

New model Little Loco getting a lot of love and some pretty bold statements: Sutherland Engineering Little Loco phono preamplifier My experience with the Little Loco convinced me that it wouldn't be hard to find a reasonably priced cartridge that sounded beyond incredible with it: I just tried...

Grinderman was one of the best live shows I've ever seen. I hope he brings them back at some point... By far his finest work IMO.

Caribou is the first VMP exclusive I've bought in a.... it's been so long I can't remember. I have the standard black vinyl and it sounds really, really good. Very stoked to see what RTI can do with it. Anyone on the fence, please jump off and buy it - as others have said, it no doubt should've...

Great first album, one of my top 5 of that year (2014, I think). Very disappointing second album. Hope this third album gets back to more of the magic of their first release.

For those of you who missed the white Flightless exclusive of Sketches: Turntable Lab doing an exclusive in light blue vinyl. Limited to 750, shipping mid-October...

Think about it this way: if you can swing the extra cost and don't have lofty audiophile goals (like $20k+ total system cost or something), the 707s can easily be your end-game speakers. The Elacs may certainly be end-game for some, but in the entire spectrum of audio equipment the 707s *should*...
