Anyone here got an entry level headamp they want to offload? A coworker of mine is looking to dip his toes into the fray and has a budget of roughly $300.

It was great to see everyone! We had @Progisus @Viper2005 @ecwl @rifi @Rubin and myself.

We've got myself, @ecwl, @Viper2005, @Progisus and @rifi A maybe with @Beefy, @Rubin Sometimes a wildcare like @Velomane shows up, but he's usually working overtime near the holidays. So that's 5-7 people for a decent showing.

Not Winnipeg specifically, but yes ginger beef is a Chinese-Canadian thing: https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/opinion/fyi/2012/07/28/history-on-a-plate That said... I never actually order that dish. Truthfully I very rarely go out to eat Chinese except with my family. Some random suggestions...

Audio shops in town (alphabetically): Advance Electronics Altitudo Audio American HiFi Brian Reimer Audio Creative Audio Huh I never realized how they're all A B C's. For restaurants, we have lots... you gotta narrow down a category. Clementines is great for a brunch place. Asoyama is my...

La Pampa is an excellent choice! For anyone who doesn't have my (new-ish) address, please send me a text or PM.

Hey guys, since we'll be overlapping with dinnertime this Saturday, shall we coordinate for foodstuffs?

When we first started dating, she was using the stock tv speakers. I upgraded first to a Vifa Helsinki, then later the Copenhagen. Before we were engaged I snagged a Stockholm off ebay for cheap which we used until I recently upgraded to the KEFs. The first couple upgrades she could hear the...

I think the wise choice is letting her buy a dining room table before I try adding audio furniture into the mix...

The trick is to build a large enough line array to replace the entire cabinet! Gotta have my (half)wall of sound!

Y'know, for that price you could buy 4 or 5 pairs of the Q350 on clearance and build a line array on each side... :L3000: (it could even be a horizontal line array)

Ooh what other speakers did you get? Smallest balanced source I have is an RME Babyface Pro FS, though it'll need drivers.

I thought about it... but maybe when I set up a theatre in the basement. There's no place for components in the living room with our current setup. Correction: there's no place where I'll be allowed to set up components.

Holy cow dudes time moves so fast, just over a week to go before our meet! Anyone have new toys to share? Nothing on my end. I've been too busy with house renos and upgrades. Oh wait I did get new speakers. So did @Beefy lol.

I have work on Saturday afternoons but I can leave a bit early. Alright, hosting at my place in Lindenwoods. Saturday December 7 @ 4:30pm

I know @Rubin was playing around with convolution filters for a while which are in the same ballpark. Maybe @rifi was too?

You missed the last one which was at my house! Location may come down to which one of us gets approval from the missus.

Ok in the absence of other replies it looks like the evening of Saturday Dec 7 is what we're gonna leaning towards unless we get a bunch more responses

Sending out pokes so people hopefully get notifications... @Rubin @veloaudio @Viper2005 @bearFNF @ecwl @Beefy @dbw1 @zoobabwa @dscythe @-iKa- @knivek @Progisus @Kernel Kurtz @Awah @dfm1a1 @door1002 @pmacks @SennheiserMiser @orkney @rifi @aqsw @Progisus @Lickumms

Hey guys, doodle link for our December meet. Times are approximate. Please select which dates/times work for you. Location TBD, but likely either my place or Rifi's. https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/eEGzrlmb

Whenever I see this picture or similar, I must remind people that unless you know with absolute certainty that your amp has a shared ground on the negative terminals, do not connect them together. Delete either the green or black wire; do not have both. If your amp has a shared ground...

Time to learn how to refoam a woofer!

How about something around the weekend of Dec 6-8?

*Usually* the headphone jack on a receiver is tapped off the speaker outputs with some big resistors in series. Sometimes they are tapped without resistors. Sometimes they are a discrete output. If you can find the manuals and/or schematics, you might be able to tell from the diagram. In...

I remember when @bearFNF came up from MN, he had a bit of an odd conversation with the border agents, because "gonna visit my friend from the internet" doesn't exactly raise confidence especially since he didn't even have my full name lol. If you're gonna make the trip up, I'll pm you some details.
