    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Another good one for you folks, IMHO. I'll keep it brief. Jazz, Soul, Funk, Hardbop, and a Hammond B3 organ to boot! What else can be said other than ENJOY! Tonight's Jazz recommendation is...

    Gotta be honest. I did. And I still do. :rolling_eyes:

    I got a 12AU7 adapter this last round. Didn't think about a 6SN7.

    I should have known Tom couldn't just stop at sending a few scrap pieces of wood. :D

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    I was fortunate enough to NEVER sell a set of Bose 901s. 501s were the limit of my tolerance for Bose products. I sold a hell of a lot of EPI, JBL, and Advent and a few ARs when we had them in stock, but could never get behind selling of 901s. I educated many a listener and kept them from...

    So we Schiitheads made the owner so rich that they are retiring? :D

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Why do I think that us Schiitheads had something to do with this? :D

    So many tubes. So little time. :D

    Welcome to Texas, my friend! The folks here are great (for the most part). :D

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    One of my very favs, tonight. Brad Mehldau, Larry Grenadier, and Jeff Ballard come together as a wonderful trio. It's a LIVE recording and it puts you in the venue. Very well recorded and puts you right there, even rolling your eyes when the wait staff drops a tray, etc. The soft sounds and...

    Well, don't keep us hanging -- did you get your vehicle registration or did you just hand over $190 for the entertainment ?? :D

    Looks like I'll just have to deal with weeping open sores for now. Or maybe I could try crushing and snorting a new bleach urinal cake. :thinking:

    Agreed. There's not a finer bourbon with Coke over ice. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: (Me makes a mad dash for the door!)

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    A deviation from the previous Jazz/fusion recommendations. More on the traditional and classic Jazz side of things. The Ray Brown Trio (Ray is a talented stand-up bass player) delivers an intimate and engaging live performance that is very well recorded. It is a Telarc label offering so it's...

    Is there a vaccine for that? 😁

    Wow. Class and Style. That's definitely way better than the adjectives Tom has for me -- insignificance and crudeness. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    This will be the last Jazz/Fusion recommendation for a bit as I've been on a bit of a Fusion streak. Time to give other subgenres some lovin'. Steve Smith and Vital Information has been a fav in my Fusion rotation. Steve is a very accomplished Jazz drummer that typically showcases his...

    I'm sure @Paladin79 has some very nice pieces of scrap wood he may be willing to part with. 😉

    I'm pretty sure it's cryo-treated cardboard. ;)

    Given scarcity and price trends, maybe I can trade my WE 421A for a new Urd. 🤣

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    While I do have quite a few Tung-Sol and Chatham 5998s for my Incubus, I only have 1x WE421A. Snagged it at $145 (thank you Auction Sniper), which was still a deal even back in 2020 when I bought it. 😁
