Those JBLs were on my short list back in '79 (probably an earlier model). I love scrolling thru this thread every time it resurfaces. :thumbsup:

Bruno Mars has the Meidas Touch. He did a guest vocal on an unknown artist's album, Mick Mark Ronson (who?) and had one of the biggest hits in a decade, Uptown Funk. Then he paired up with a guy who I guess was a little more well-known (I hadn't heard of him, Anderson .paak), and released...

facebook just served me up a Blast from the Past. I actually have the BMB's Greatest Hits on vinyl!

I think I misfingered my remote after the PBS Newhour. Ran into a show called Office Space. Never seen it before, but I recognized so many memes. Realized it was a movie, not a series, so watched the whole thing. Brought so many memories back of floppies, printers, and evil bosses, not sure...

Love JBLs...

I think it may be outside your price range, but the Sony Bravia Theater Quad has caught my eye, and looks really flexible for different rooms.

When my Harmony 1's backup battery died, I was able to log and it reloaded my settings, but that was 5, 6 years ago. Keep us posted.

A 4-minute video of what it's sorta like to climb up Mt Everest, taken from a drone. I knew the trails were packed with "tourists", but... wow.

Norman Greenbaum, The Professor of Rock, a prototype Fuzztone pedal, a low-budget gospel chorus, and goats. This video made me so, so happy. PoR had been trying to find this guy for ten years, finally did via Kenny Loggins (!!), and the interview was so cool for music nerds like me. I've...

Hey Mike, I just heard some good news for you. The Wiim Ultra that I posted about in another thread is supposed to be released end of summer, and one of the features it includes is Room Correction software. I learned this morning from the "CheapAudioMan" ewetube that that software is also now...

No, not this. Amazon had the full CC number before I even got the card, and I didn't know the full number.

Thanks Tom, I‘ll check on that tomorrow.

They did some digging and just sent me an email this morning, and I called them about it; my CC number changed internally on my account with the CU, so when my old card was not authorized to make a monthly payment, it was reported to me with the new CC #. I then explained to him that, the way...

I can't stand it. I just can't stand it. It hasn't been three days, three days, and now my TV is saying "There is no antenna connected", and I'm not getting ANY of the channels I was previously. I haven't changed anything. I've gotta be the most cursed audiophile in the United States...

Tonight is now my second night of just watching OTA content, and I must reiterate: gawd I hate commercials!! I really loved being able to watch a news broadcast and skip all the commercials; right now I'm muting the TV but it's irritating as hell. I also miss pausing when I had to use the...

It is; in fact I still have trouble believing that was the case, but watching my channels disappear, one by one, over the period of a year, the same year that building was being finished, and now having ALL my ota channels back when the RAM was removed, its really hard to imagine what else it...

I've whined before about being able to get OTA TV years ago, and then ten years or so ago, one by one the channels started going out, and I ended up having to go to Dish, and then paid YouTubeTV, just to get the local channels. I got an email from my Credit Union Friday morning, they had some...

I used to go out for lunch while I was working; usually a close ethnic restaurant, or occasionally fast-food if I was busy or had too many meetings. Since I retired, I cook/experiment at home most of the time, but mebbe once a week I get lazy and go out for lunch, sometimes even fast food...

Aw, man. :crying: You may not know his name, but you know his sound.

Before turning off the news tonight, I checked the TV sched, and there were back-to-back Young Sheldon episodes on CBS (Monday ???), then I saw it was the very first two episodes, so I left the TV on. First episode was 9-yr-old Sheldon being moved to High School, into his own older brother's...
