I started collecting music in the late '70s and vinyl was the only reasonable way.

This really the best use of ChatGPT - I use it to write long annoying rebuttals to BS in about 2 seconds. It either a) shuts them up b) invites more low-effort responses which just answer again with ChatGPT or c) they start talking about the AI in which case I move on to saying they have nothing if all they have is ad hominen attacks.

@icastico what the heck is this like? I don’t follow Hubbard closely but do have a lot of his stuff and have never seen a reference to this.

@Whiskeyomega Fair enough! I moved from Tidal to Qobuz years ago, but Tidal wasn’t bad… I wonder if you’ve tried both?

@vinylrecords

Congrats! Not sure what kbin stands for, but Cabin (or Kabin) is just right there for an associated name.

@Whiskeyomega Reissues often boost the bass - personal preference for sure. Sometimes I like it sometimes… it’s just too much of a good thing. Still, this one should slam.

@gnitro I really love his whole Standard Time series. Is this his debut? I’m not sure I’ve heard it.

I mainly use a Degritter (first generation) but have kept my VPI HW-17i vacuum around for dirtier used records and because it just does a different job than the Degritter. I also use the MoFi handheld brush or a Groovewasher for in-between cleans or to pick up dust from the platter if it’s been a while since I’ve played anything.
