Hi Dave, I saw this today on Facebook and immediately thought of you. Probably old hat in your circle, but I found it to be a cool capture regardless. Cheers!

Hi Everyone, The other day I was reading here on AS a thread about somebody (Brad225?) having issues with re-connecting all their Ethernet connected gear (can't find that thread now) and getting it all to communicate properly once again after disassembly. It's been my experience that many folks...

I forgot about this thread. Fun to look back through how some things have changed and others not! Here's an updated snap of my current setup:

Hi All!, Been away from AS for a few years and see there's still some pretty interesting discussions happening over here. Looking forward to rejoining the conversation whenever I can. Hope you've all been well and enjoying your audio adventures whatever they may be! Kind Regards, Mike

Wondering what opinions are out there for listening seat (or seats, chaise, couch, etc.) and material types and heights of seat backs. Comfort may rule when listening, but are there certain materials and back-heights to either avoid or seek out when wanting to replace the place where you put...

Surprised to find this on my trail camera tonight, its mounted outside our bedroom door. Camera is pointing toward the back yard area. Are these large bobcats? https://i.imgur.com/RQxslOI.mp4

I know I've seen threads discussing where to purchase nice silk plants for rooms, but can't seem to find any of them in searches right now. What source's do you guys use to purchase your various silk plants? Thank you!

Hey guys, I have always loved the music of The The and hope some here at AS do as well. Are you aware of any special pressings/labels in their library that should be sought after for their "better" sonic qualities? I love the various CD versions of Dusk, Infected, Mind Bomb, Soul Mining and...

In case anyone is interested or have travel plans... The setting, the sound quality, the artists and of course the music: https://www.bravovail.org/ The rotating artists and different symphonies is always refreshing and fun. Looks like some great shows this year.

Is it missing in current society? Your thoughts?

Lots of snow moving around the mountains recently. Thought you guys might enjoy this clip of a snow slide above Red Mountain Pass in south western Colorado. If you're not a facebook user the clip is still visible but clipped along the bottom with the banner...

Looking for a nice tool to replace my cheapie $15 dollar waiter's corkscrew. What can you recommend? Thanks.

Hi, I've been wanting to get a pair of audiophile-grade earplugs to use for concerts, visiting other peoples systems (including shows) that are cranked up too loud or other times when I just want to turn the volume down to safe levels. I'm trying to avoid bulky or antennae-looking designs...

Tasting along as it decants... has changed some in the three hours since opening. Has great fruit now just a little big in the mouth and hoping some time in the decanter will help it smooth. Was great with grilled chicken tonight but a little large afterwards just for sipping.

But this one is the biggest so far: We saw him (or her, not sure) walk up my neighbor's driveway then on up and around to their back yard area. I let me neighbor know of the bears presence and she sent these pictures along. I guess the bear took a nice rest for 30 minutes or so in her...
