I like the quality of the videos and the trips. Him, I could do without. She should do her own channel.I have no pony in this race at all, but wonder why you find him unwatchable. For me, he's just a guy on YouTube reviewing Schiit.....

Love that show! Highly recommendedI just watched a Netflix show with new episodes of Somebody Feed Phil based in Austin Texas, the bar-b-cue looked incredible with choices well above the pig parts @bcowen might know. Episode 3 of season 6.

I thought it might be a fun exercise to share some lessor known albums that people love, but....I guess not! HAHA! Thanks for taking up the invitation! I have also been listening to The Beths new album. They are a great new addition to my musical world.While I'm waiting for my Unison USB board for my 2013-vintage Bifrost (the first run of black Schiit), I'll throw in a few soundtracks I haven't seen mentioned.
The Magnificent Seven - Elmer Bernstein
The Incredibles - Michael Giacchino
A Map of the World - Pat Metheny
West Side Story - Leonard Bernstein
That Thing You Do
Wicked - Stephen Schwartz
Related to the topic... I listened to music to help me grieve when my mom passed away at 94 a couple of years ago. My wife was startled when I began playing the Wicked soundtrack because it begins with "No One Mourns the Wicked". But she quickly realized that I was playing it for the wonderful song near the end with the beautiful lyrics, "Because I knew you, I have been changed for good."
Music has the power to heal.
And for @Bonehead7171, there is so much music out there, it's not difficult to find something off the beaten path. I've been enjoying the latest release from The Beths: Expert in a Dying Field. I'm clueless when it comes to genres, but "power pop with a jazz aesthetic" seems to be a reasonable description.

And throw the bad guys for a loss
And he will bring them in alive and kickin’

Hey all,
A quick announcement: the death of tubes has been greatly exaggerated!
6SN7 tubes are back for Freya+, specifically Tung-Sol 6SN7GTB. LISST are available too.
More tomorrow. Not on tubes.
All the best,
Jason

I can't dance like that any longer. Knees and back don't cooperate now. Even Stimpy's get old...!
I guess that's why I turned to the ways of The Force...! Mind control doesn't require good knees.

Even though they're not so much into the new stuff, your post gave @Paladin79 and @bcowen a warm feeling. Truth be told, me too.A quick announcement: the death of tubes has been greatly exaggerated!

Speaking of tubes, I happened on this ModWright device a couple days ago, it adds tube sound to most any amp or preamp.Even though they're not so much into the new stuff, your post gave @Paladin79 and @bcowen a warm feeling. Truth be told, me too.
Below are features of the Analog Bridge:
It has a tube rectified and SS regulated power supply.
Two pairs of RCA inputs for two sources, two pairs of RCA outs.
We offer an optional add-cost fully balanced option that includes one pair of fully balanced XLR inputs and outputs.
Tube complement: (2)6922, (2)6SN7, (1)5AR4/GZ34
Frequency: 20Hz(-.5dB) - 200Khz(-1.5dB)
THD: < .005%
Noise: < -105dB (unweighted)
I do not need one since I have tube amps and pre-amps but I thought it interesting nonetheless. They used to add a tube stage inside an OPPO DAC but they no longer make those. It allows you to choose between 6sn7's and 6922's with the flip of a switch.
