Now I’m curious. Just ordered mine. I’ve got the older SACD 5.1 mixes of DSOTM and WYWH. Both of those are really good. And I’ve got the MoFi DSOTM 24k version that I bought when it first came out. I've got several versions including but not limited to the MoFi CD, the Immersion box set, the SACD, and the German Quadraphonie vinyl and now the Atmos BD. The BD from the Immersion set and the SACD are both very good but this one took it up a notch for me. Cool, looking forward to hearing it. Supposed to arrive on Weds. I’ll pop it in as soon as I get it.

Some goodies arrived today…I bought an extra Pink Floyd disc just because I’ll occasionally do that to have a sealed version. I’ll hang on to it, gift it or resell it later. For $20 and free shipping I figured what the heck.

Great food, great service. Dinner with Keith. Yeah our Keith here. Oh my gosh. Absolutely amazing food. Expensive, and you better be hungry.

New in the house. Fresh out of the box. A beautiful piece. Well designed for you music appetite and nice eye candy. Easy to set up and its like I have a new system. Blends in very well with my Magnepans.

Congrats, BlueMeanies! That white color is awesome. Seems like your new sub sounds as great as it looks. Nice it blending seamlessly with your Magnepan speakers Are you using the Neutrik Speakon connectors? Have you listened to it enough yet that you could compare it to previous subs that you have owned? Walt

The WBC using Mogami core cable inside is a value yet still trustworthy for my workstation microphone and mixer, the Amazon cables dirt cheap, run many of these, and they just work. No connection issues. They get it done.

Pair of Arendal 1723S Bookshelf Speakers I look forward to your thoughts. Enjoy! Thanks! I have the smaller 1961 bookshelves and really like them. I received an announcement from Arendal that they will be raising their prices next month and since I am using a 1723S center, I figured why not have matching models across the front, and do it before the price goes up. They're due to arrive next week.

Everything about Arendal seems first-rate. Thanks to LC for his post on them a while ago, which is how I heard about them. The timbre of the 1961 bookshelves match the 1723S center but they are slightly less rich or full. Looking forward to hearing how the 1723S bookshelves compare to both.

Finally saying goodbye to my unsupported Samsung Blu-ray player. Been a good workhorse, but it’s having a lot of trouble recognizing Blu-ray discs. UB820-K Panasonic

Not glamorous AT ALL, but oh SO CRITICAL!!! I am happy to report the toilette survived the transplant and recovered fully 😆😆😆 Oh yeah, all too familiar with that gig! I’m very grateful to have four in my house but of course, that also means I buy everything in fours. I don’t even think about it. I just do it because I know if one’s leaking in variably the other one is down the pike.

I only do photography as a hobby and to share photos with friends and family (i.e. I spend more money than I could ever make). But I have cards so that in my travels I can share them with people I meet and they can see the pictures on my photo site. Before traveling to the Canadian Arctic and Greenland in August I got 250 new cards printed. But then when I got back Zenfolio - where I have posted photos for 15 years - started an archive policy that caused me to have to move to Smugmug. So ... my Latest Purchase is my new Smugmug photo site that is 95% up and running .... AND, a new card design (on order) p.s. next stop ... Antarctica November 29 - December 12.

So Murphy’s Law came knocking at my door yesterday morning. We had dear friends up from Virginia for a weekend visit and the first morning they were here my coffee machine decided to crap out The power switch became intermittent and then failed entirely the old rocker style single pole I love the machine (it’s a BUNN) and I wanted another one, but bearing the failure in mind, I found the latest model brews the same way but it’s digitally controlled. Once I made the purchase, there was nothing to lose and I pulled the bottom off the old one and was able to bypass the switch so I don’t have to go to 7-Eleven until next Friday. Lol. View Attachment….. an addendum to this… Lol The only problem with this machine is that it is monstrously tall… The tallest home coffee brewer I’ve ever seen I think, and with that comes a problem. The rubber feet make it a challenge to slide it under the cabinets when it’s full of coffee and water, so what do you do? So when it was dry and empty, I tipped the thing on its side and put a little piece of scotch tape on the bottom of each foot now the thing slides around like butter I need to get it under the cabinets when I’m not using it without having to call Atlas Van lines problem solved.

Yesterday I got 30 of these and replaced all the zipper pulls on all the bags. Antarctica T-24days ... Since our Arctic trip was so similar to what Antarctica will be, our packing mindset is still fresh. We just have to adjust for the draconian luggage whims of Aerolineas Argentinas. Camera bodies came back from Sony Pro Services the other day, all cleaned and checked. Clothing is starting to gather in heaps. In a week or so we'll start staging gear.
