It's a Steely Dan Day.

I put together a mini system for my work bench. I use Poweramp on my phone, that goes to a Logitech blue tooth receiver, hooked to a Miniwatt amp, driving a pair of vintage Optimus Pro LX4 speakers. Sounds amazing good for what it is.

This morning is Patricia Barber.

So many great songs on this album.

Bite your tongue. Turn down the bass. I've never heard such nonsense.

While I am stuck at home, I did some work on this cd player today. This one is built like a tank. The face and top are machined from billet and very heavy. Got it up and going in a few hours.

There are systems in the living room, dining room (no dining table), den and sun room. I have gear for three more systems. It is an obsession.

I, too, use an Elite screen. Mine is a 106" manual pull down and has worked well for many years. They are $140 -$150 from Best Buy, Amazon and Office Depot.

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink or in this case an "audiophile."

The only constant is change. The latest addition is a Pro-Ject RPM 1 turntable.

Started watching the second season of Altered Carbon. Had to go back and watch season one again to retain enough background to understand watching season two.

Pink Floyd Division Bell 25th Anniversary

I liked it but I don't know that it would appeal to a young crowd. It isn't an action or science fiction movie. Those are the wrapper around, what I would call a psychological drama. It could just be, it had me reflect on my relationship with my Dad.

Sad to hear of Lyle's passing. He was a great jazz pianist and composer. I have been listening to his music with Pat Metheny for 40 years.
