    What Are You Listening To?

    OK Go outdid themselves. Again. :oops: EDIT: Here's an article about making it, with a behind-the-scenes video included: https://www.macworld.com/article/2581472/ok-gos-clever-iphone-starring-music-video-will-start-your-weekend-on-a-high-note.html

    Heeman's New DIY MTM Project

    I puzzled over this, some kind of radial arm saw I was unfamiliar with? Finally saw the Yamaha name and figured out it must be an outboard motor!

    What are you watching via streaming?

    I read an article about Tubi this morning about their oddball lo-budget movies, like this one: That looks so bad it might be good.

    What Are You Listening To?

    EweTube just served this one up, Gino Vanelli: I didn't even know he was still alive, much less still releasing music; my first vinyl from him was a Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs audiophile pressing, way back from 1980 or so: Damn I feel old right about now... :confused:

    Cambridge Audio MX-N10 Wifi streamer/DAC

    Understood, but I won't do business with them anymore.

    Cambridge Audio MX-N10 Wifi streamer/DAC

    I did get Apple Airplay going on it this afternoon. Also discovered an issue: when I stop any track that's playing (on either Tidal and Apple Music), the Cambridge goes into "Standby" mode after 20 minutes (as it's supposed to), but then when I try to play something else later, StreamMagic on...

    Cambridge Audio MX-N10 Wifi streamer/DAC

    So Logitech is still maintaining their on-line Harmony One programmer? That's great news, and what I'll do if that's the case; thanks!

    Cambridge Audio MX-N10 Wifi streamer/DAC

    Think I mentioned in another thread that I would be adding a streaming box to my 15-yr-old Yamaha receiver, since it's working again. It arrived on Friday: I'd been eyeing the Wiim boxes, but after watching a lot of EweTube reviews it sounded like the actual DAC in each got better as you...

    Final Sanity Check on my new receiver

    B-U-M-P! Well, no one can accuse me of being an impulse shopper. The Yamaha RS-V6A is on sale again for Xmas, and I still don't have a good full connection between my disk player and my new Sony TV (thought the HDMI output on my receiver had gone bad). I started "refresh-reading" the...

    What Are You Listening To?

    This popped up on my ewetube. One of the most haunting movie themes ever written; one of those classic movies that I need to see one of these days.

    What Are You Listening To?

    Stumbled onto this VERY old Roy Clark video. The facials, the humor, and the pickin‘, dayam!

    What Are You Listening To?

    For decades, I thought Rick Wakeman was a dick. Every interview I'd read in Rolling Stone, Musician, and Keyboard magazines over the years, he came across as an absolute dick! I know a couple folks who have met him, and their opinion was quite different (and I've always wanted to play...

    What Are You Listening To?

    Liquid Tension Experiment; 3/5ths of Dream Theater with Tony Levin on Stick/bass, no vocals. When I'm in the mood for fast athleto-prog, these guys scratch the itch.

    What Are You Listening To?

    It takes melon-sized Swedish balls to re-orchestrate a Stevie tune, and then blow it out of the water like these guys do. Dayam!

    I Am Committing A Blasphemy!

    I saw that too. But I couldn't see myself buying anything old from either of them, either.

    What Are You Listening To?

    I was mistaken above, The Dirty Loops are their own trio, just collab'd with Cory and the brass above. Yowza!

    What Are You Listening To?

    Cory Wong (of the Vulfpeck gang) has his own band called Dirty Loops. Here's their cover of Thriller, and it smokes!! Synth pads are identical, brass section sounds identical, drum sounds sound identical, even the lead vox sound like (actually better than) MJ; and yet this goes so far...

    What Are You Listening To?

    A lot of my musician friends mock me for liking Duran Duran, and at first I thought they were a "pretty boy"/made-for-MTV band, but their melodies had me singing in the shower many mornings. I eventually grew to be a huge fan. I've performed "Rio" on stage many times (one of the few tunes I...

    What Movie(s) Did You Watch Today?

    After the news I scanned the college FB channels on EweTube TV again, apparently ISU has a bye week. Then I saw, Poltergeist. I'm not a big movie buff, much less the horror genre, but I do remember watching this one when it came out, so I clicked it on and kinda enjoyed seeing it again. I do...
