My all birds "delivered" today. They are in the apartment mail box, however the key you use to open is stuck. The fob is my mail box and the key is in the one below it. The apartment complex can't get into it without permission and they can't give me their phone number. I gave the apt complex my number and told them call them and leave aessage with my information. This is fucked up.
No, I have several Play 1’s, two of which I’ll use for a rear channel for TV. I think an $800 subwoofer is ridiculous, but haven’t ruled it out. Considering a Connect for my turntable, which supports a sub I believe. May go that route haven’t decided.
I thought that soundbars sounded like shit without a sub don't they? I also don't know shit about Sonos other than that they're "all the rage". Enlighten me plz
I love my Sonos speakers but admittedly don’t know much about soundbars (in the general sense). From what I have read, however, the Beam is a fantastic upgrade from your standard TV speakers, which is my goal since that’s what I use 90% of the time. I also want more Sonos speakers in my living room near the TV for music purposes, so I’m killing 2 birds with one stone. Sonos is great if you want to go wireless throughout a house with Bose quality and a very solid app that integrates many other apps for playing music (e.g., Spotify, Plex, Pandora, network shares, radio). You will pay a premium for it though. Sonos is similar to Apple: you pay a premium for quality and design that work well, but you could get more horsepower for the same amount of money if you built it your self.
I’m going with DTS Play-fi stuff in an attempt to squeeze better sound quality out of the dollars. Not sure if it will pay off.
Yeah, I don’t know about much of the codec stuff aside from the complaints I’ve seen about the Beam. I listen to music way more than I watch TV, so, while the Beam is a sound bar meant for home theater, I’ll be using it quite a bit for music and as a component of my current Sonos setup. I’m in the process of incrementally upgrading all of my stereo, and this was a reasonable step prior to overhauling my vinyl setup. Movies/TV will always be secondary. Edit: I should add I have a duck ton of digital music on a home media server, and Sonos is the best way I’ve found to make it easily listenable.
Not 100% sure I follow, but I’ve had issues with keys almost breaking in the package mailboxes. That would suck. On another bitching note, my post office delivers into my secure building M-Sa. But when I have a package from Amazon expected on Sunday, they never deliver. The tracking website always says something like building closed. Presumably they have a different employee delivering that day, but it never fails to piss me off. I guess I could call the post office to try and get it fixed, but my interactions with these folks haven’t achieved the best results in the past, and I’m about to move.
I love when we tangent into minor league baseball hat talks. http://www.milb.com/milb/fans/caps/y2014/ PS - I love that there is a team called Jamestown Jammers
Awesome link. For whatever reason, I don’t like to wear gear from places I haven’t been or events I haven’t attended, but I think I’m going to make an exception for the Frisco RoughRiders hat. It’s just too sweet not to get, and I don’t even wear hats that much anymore.
Like dress socks for work? Anything you like from Tie Bar are awesome. TJ maxx usually has super cheap Cole Haan, Ralph Lauren, Gold Toe etc. which are all good and trying to go cheap.
Did you explain to them that all your internet friends are waiting on an update and this is a goddamn emergency?
Dino’s is going to be going public soon. FYI, know a lot of you are big proponents if you are interested.
I thought the same thing but pulled the trigger a year ago. The sub is badass and makes a huge difference.
Did an order with the cheap chinese jersey shop Aimee Smith. Pretty happy with results, will await for it to get here to see how it sized Spoiler
1932 Gottleib Play-Boy Pinball machine. Bought at auction on a whim. Don't know much about it. Spoiler: Pics
