That is sad. Losing friends is hard, lifelong friends, harder, even when you're Arlo Guthrie.

Sounds like about 2/3 of the high-end audio industry...

Arm to Ally the vendor? They had a great price on 7.62 NATO takeoff brass with the primers still in - .37¢ each for 500. Of course, I'm still waiting for it to appear.

There went that one...

Forewarned is forearmed. I'll keep my time. :)

THAT is a great concert! Has been one of my top albums since I saw the video on PBS.

Had Polk 5 Jrs years ago. Very nice speakers - you've done very well, especially if those later tweeters perform as advertised. Enjoy!

Hey now, some of us who used to autocross know when to let off the accelerator and grab some traction... even if we are driving a Mustang GT. :D

And that's why I have my own room.

Haven't used mine enough for it to behave as if it needs a teardown but yeeesh, that's dirty. That may be something to expect on my drill, however, as I use it a fair bit in the workshop and running trailer stabilizers up and down.

I've found that when the voice of experience is telling me that doing nothing is a pretty good thing, it usually is.

Hell, that's half the number of stops a package of car parts shipped via Fed Ex took to get from New Jersey to me. You're doing great.

I get it - it's a size thing as living spaces are generally smaller over there and units often need to be stacked. No way around it. It's just that my failure rate with front-loading washers is 100%. And even in the (much) smaller house, I still have room in the basement for a top loading...

Yeah, it's still cool, even if it doesn't work well. The effort is what's impressive.

That's very cool. Mongolian, I'm guessing? If not, my apologies. Reminds me a bit of a group I presented a few years back called Cello Fury (https://www.cellofury.com/videos). We had them on an off night from the big shows but they had an outsized impact: more than one parent sent me emails...

I feel your pain. DO NOT get me started on front loaders. Worst pieces of shit ever created. Leak like a sieve and the digital panels aren't worth the powder to blow them to hell. Had a Kenmore pair for three years before we moved, replaced bearings once, seals twice, and control panels twice...

Man, there for a second I thought you were working on one of Miles' drum kits... :D

@ Lee - <grin> And on another note (damn, I'm just full of 'em tonight...) I will say that Lindsay and I were talking about the great Muzak being programmed in her office tower in Dallas (for real, apparently) this evening and she mentioned she downloads an average of four new albums per week...

Caught T-Model at Red's Lounge in Clarksdale before he passed. But not before this album was recorded. It's raw...

https://time.com/7160812/we-dont-want-new-music-essay/?utm_source=pocket-newtab-en-us I think I would add to that the lack of time to hunt down new music on the interwebs without algorhythms.
