  1. Link to how it was recorded.... amazing for 1984 (link Was supposed to be the entire album)
  2. I try to watch this every Christmas Eve:
  3. I am offended by the racial epithet in the title.
  4. "For Secretary of Health and Education Services, I nominate Xavier Bacheria"
  5. Spotify provides a summary of your listening preferences at the end of each year. Each year my family compares our personal summaries. My kids told me I need a life: 😊
  6. I was hoping one of the more frequent attendee's would chime in... Typically: Members will host "themed" meals on predetermined evenings at their cabins. Attendees typically "cabin hop" to spend time with each other - listening to the system or systems in their respective cabins. In past years - Bob would give a nice speech. There have been years when some dedicated members would put together kits - for attendee's to purchase and build. It's an amazing experience to build one of Bob's (or another members) design with them in the same room! The reservation process begins EARLY - starting now for next year. I don't know the specifics for 2021 - I believe this thread is to start the discussion.
  7. CS had a "sister site" that had much of the info you seek. Unfortunately it has been down for a while. The event takes place at Watershed Cabin in NC. The event is "organized" on this site... Here is a link to the you "attractions" in the area: https://www.watershedcabins.com/attractions.asp
  8. I am not a fan of any film or TV program that includes scenes depicting NFL/College football players. The uniforms and "actors" never look authentic - neither do the scenes they are depicting. That being said - I believe Debbie Does Dallas is way over rated.
  9. Nailed it...but you left off Bjork
  10. So true - think of all the monthly dings we have in 2020 that we didn't have a decade ago. Most are voluntary (with the exception mobile phones which replaced our land lines.) Every month/quarter/year: SIRI (really difficult to get programming OTA) Directv (Necessary evil to time shift NFL) Verizon (I passed on having additional wireless services for automobiles) Netflix Amazon Prime (I had no idea they offered movies/music for the first four years of membership - subscribed for Prime shipping) Hulu Spotify Xfinity (Internet) Mcafee (Antivirus) VPN Quicken (subscription based now) Itunes (Cloud data) Office (subscription based now) Home Security Monitoring Ring Doorbell Netgear Support (another necessary evil after 90 days) Even my damn whole house generator now needs monitoring!
  11. Welcome to the site! Admission to this site requires you buy at least four more Carver items within the next week. (Just kidding) Itch

    I have not started season two yet... I kept waiting for "Pam" to cameo in season one
  13. I really enjoyed all of the seasons... power watching - the sport of the 201X's
  14. My post started as a question.... I forgot to mention that, even not at full potential, the music sounds so much better than my Spotify!
  15. The sun went behind the clouds and the temperature dropped so... I signed up for the three month trial of Amazon HD Music. EDIT - the weak link is Airplay 2 is limited to 24-bit 48kHz Background: I have been streaming Spotify Extreme 320 kbps for a few years now. My devices connect to my Parasound P5 - utilizing it's built in DAC via Optical and Coax. The Coax and optical inputs of the P5 accept all sampling rates up to 192 kHz, 24-bit Using my iPhone 8 Plus I stream TO one of two devices: *Airport Express (using the optical output to the P5) *Wyred 4 Sound Sonos Connect (using the coax output to the P5) The Sonos Connect is highly modified - it actually bypasses the oem Sirrius Logic CODAC and and is set to output at a rate of 96kHz. APPS USED: I use the terrific (well they recently upgraded it and managed to messed it up) SPOTIFY APP to stream SPOTIFY to the AIRPORT EXPRESS. I use the SONOS APP (still not a great APP) to stream SPOTIFY to the SONOS. Today reinstalled the AmazonMusic APP for my iPhone to stream AmazonMusic HD to my AIRPORT EXPRESS. They have recently upgraded the graphics and interface. You will notice that ULTRA HD notation below the album cover. If you click on it A POPUP displays the: TRACK QUALITY DEVICE CAPABILITY CURRENTLY PLAYING AT I won't have access to this information if I stream AmazonMusic HD via my SONOS APP. The SONOS APP allows you to access all of your services but has limited functionality. My DEVICE CAPABILITY (third picture) is limiting my playing quality (second picture) - What is the Weak Link? This is the pop up if you click on the ULTRA HD (yellow) This is the pop-up if you click on the Learn More
  16. Welcome Nick! The Sunfire is a wonderful amp.
  17. That's only five I have never seen nor do I think you have seen APP!
  18. It would be natural to assume that I would see my Greek brother Vangelis ... but you are correct. Never saw him. ALL ONE CONCERT - Cotton Bowl 1989: Ely - The Fabulous Thunderbirds - SRV - The Who Van Halen - Red Rocks (David Lee Roth)
