Loved skiing at Chestnut Mountain with a new girlfriend. So many choices based on her skill. Is that place still open? Would be a great place to teach my kids how to ski.
It seems our dog really doesn't like the MLS noise in ARTA. The first one was on the woofer and made him growl quietly. When I switched to the tweeter, he jumped off the couch and started barking and growling at the speaker on the stand!

It was widely believed that The Beatles' "Sgt Pepper" LP run out contained an ultrasonic sound which only dogs could hear. This would be impossible, wouldn't it, as LPs and stereo systems could only reproduce sound up to about 18,000Hz anyway?
In any case, our dogs have never reacted to or had a problem with that album.
Like most other great players, he's modest about his abilities and seems like a genuinely nice person. Also, Rick's a great interviewer who knows his stuff.
There was an interview with Jimi Hendrix where the interviewer asked him 'what it felt like to be the best guitarist in the world'. "I don't know", he replied, "ask Rory Gallagher".
I must be the only one who doesn't really care for PF. I do appreciate the sonic aspects, but I could never get into the actual music. But I feel like that about a lot of music, even the current Indy-Folk stuff.
Interesting to learn that Bose just bought the McIntosh Group. I had read just last week that at least two of the bigger groups were looking to sell off some of their well known brands. Sad to think Pioneer may go the way of other iconic brands of the past - being sold to some off-shore company just to use the logo to sell some dirt cheap crap.
Just heard about that yesterday too. Can't say they led on about any of that while I was there. Guess shit canning us saved them enough money to make that deal happen. Hope that move helps the rich get richer.🙄
Bought new 18" stands, Monolith by Monoprice, the cherry ones. Nice looking and pretty sturdy. Moved one sub farther right and the other sub farther left. I wanted a more open look than using the subs as stands. I may yet move the right sub to somewhere closer to the couch, and see how it blends.
They sure do grow up fast. Cute gal JR!
My Son is turning 13 in a month and we need to buy him an electric razor for Christmas. And his voice dropped two octaves over the summer

I actually broke a rib water skiing. Broke another one skiing some icy mogels in Wisconsin lol
Was scared to death to ski the back bowls at Vail. From the top it looked liked a parking lot of VW's covered in snow
Icy - sounds like what I remember of Chestnut Mountain.

I’m going to be a ski Ambassador this year at Steamboat (volunteer Sundays), so if you are heading out this way this winter- look me up.
I've been skiing on water, snow, and half pipes since I was 8. Too old for all of that now
Whoohoo! Antron Brown just won his 4th World championship in Top Fuel Dragster!

Ultrasonic ringing?
My dogs would immediately head down the hallway when I pulled my measurement rig out.
My wife joins my dog…

Rick Beato interviews David Gilmour, great stuff:

David is great! I have always loved his playing and creative genious.
Like most other great players, he's modest about his abilities and seems like a genuinely nice person. Also, Rick's a great interviewer who knows his stuff.

Too bad Roger Waters is so opposite of David Gilmour. Love all their music together but Roger is just an asshole in so many ways.
I have heard it said that Pink Floyd had two vocalists. Gilmour and Gilmour's guitar.

'Better sound through marketing'...
I'm off work until Dec 2nd! Feels great already. Can't wait for retirement. Just sayin!
I can recommend it!

Those look sharp.
My kid and her BF. Her birthday Tuesday, taking her out tonight for pool and drinks. Good times.
All grown up...

Same. Just returned from New Zealand last night. Started to wonder why I'm still an Iowan.
