Yeah I get FFT to go from time to frequency domain, chemists use that for NMR.

Thanks gents, for the good discussion. And @g29 good to have you here. I'll just selfishly interject that I'm a scientist - but my training is in chemistry so it doesn't help that much with understanding electronics. ;) I'm still using a 3-way analog crossover designed by @MakeMineVinyl (and...

Success! Just had to download the MyHarmony software, it remembered my account and all previous settings. Added the marantz device (which it had in its current database) and remapped the activities/buttons, and all seems to be working pretty much exactly as before.

Norah Jones @ Ronnie Scott’s - Nightingale, this gets me EVERY SINGLE TIME… crying like an emotional first timer

Lol or maybe I should say, this is making me very happy, so it sounds pretty fucking awesome

This is a little tangential, but… One of the biggest things I remember Flint saying way back when is that a measure of the quality of an audio system is the emotional impact playback brings to you. I’m going back to some of my standard evaluation playlists, and this stuff still sounds kind of...

Another plus here is that I dusted/cleaned under components that also haven’t been moved in 10+ years… yikes :rofl:

Next step will be to see if there's any possibility of reprogramming my also-ancient Harmony 650 for this new unit. I think the software's still out there and being maintained (independently of logitech?), so we'll see.

So the unit came a week ago, and I'm further embarrassed to say I just got it installed today. So far all it's working well, I did a manual-by-ear tune up and it sounds just fine. I need to break out my old RTA and measurement mic stuff to do a bit more sophisticated job of it, but I'm out of...

Ok, pulled the trigger on the Marantz refurb, came with free 5 yr extended warranty, so good enough for me.

Thanks. For right now, the refurb Marantz at half the price of that Denon is more realistic for me. Honestly, I don't do critical listening in my HT anymore, it's only used for netflix and video games. My more critical listening is done with headphones. But I don't want to have to buy new...

Actually that looks pretty decent, I don't mind a refurb for that $$ savings. I only need 5.1 channel pre-outs. I only have two rear surrounds, and no atmos.

Well, my ancient old Onkyo 885 seems like it's about to fail, or maybe already has. I had to power cycle several times last night to get the HDMI connection to work for any of my various sources. And this morning I can't get it to work at all, just says "no signal." I don't need anything fancy...

OMG this is an awesome show, in my very humble opinion.

Ugh, sorry.

Wow that's wild that a single building, even a big one like that with its special purpose, could make such a huge difference.

Yikes, hope you're ok.

Wow that's crazy. Seriously looks like a movie CGI effect.

No problem. Apparently in the original BBT, it was mentioned that Sheldon's dad died when he was 14, shortly before his move to Caltech. So I guess this shouldn't have come as any surprise, but I'd forgotten that detail.

Dude, spoiler alerts! (although I had come across that tidbit on FB already...)
