relative to the ruler I placed next to it :(

I just measured my speakers for speed. 0km/h.

one step at a time, I guess. But we're getting closer and closer to miniDSP functionality with SOTA measured performance

Last of Us is possibly the best video game adaptation I’ve seen, but I watched it soon after I watched another post apocalyptic show, Station Eleven, which was a masterpiece. Station Eleven was adapted from a novel, and unsurprisingly it had much more depth

When Westworld was cancelled I only felt relief, because I was compelled to keep hate-watching that stupid show for some reason, haha. As for The Peripheral, I really enjoyed the novel (and Agency) and while I enjoyed some aspects of the show, I thought the adaptation as a whole was a failure...

I'm very sceptical about this show. Even if the first season is good, Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy have a terrible track record with Westworld and The Peripheral being duds. And William Gibson is much more interesting source material than a computer game.

Hmm I reckon 2 metres minimum would have been best if the power supply dwarfs the amp itself. Cable slack is a non negotiable

From the comments: "When I played Berlin in 2005, before the first Tectonic Plates [a series of compilations released on Pinch's label Tectonic] had been released, I had Skream's " Bahl Fwd" on dubplate. I played in this weird venue, which was set in a bank vault and still had a caged-off...

Sorry if this has been covered but how long is the PSU's cable? I'd hope that it would be long enough to be easily hidden behind furniture

Sounds like you’re describing Jordan Petersen tbh. But I digress

IIRC Bourdain dedicated roughly an entire chapter of “Kitchen Confidential” to explaining why opening a restaurant is a bad idea Owning a small business - especially a restaurant - is often romanticised. And to some extent I get it. Follow your dreams, be your own boss, etc etc Although I’m...

This idea of sinking my own money into a hi fi shop makes my stomach turn into knots tbh

This cannot be real People don't actually pay money for stuff like this ...surely?

Exactly, it makes the expensive belt drive turntables look a bit silly

I think this is where we're at with turntables "Just buy a Technics"

One of my favourite things about James "Daddy Hoff" Hoffmann is how he manages to get the best out of a certain brewing method For a while I used his French press/plunger method, and it made genuinely delicious coffee

I agree with your wife. Cmon man, just get rid of it if you’re not using it

Great review, I hope we get to see more Yamaha integrateds and receivers reviewed, it would be cool to know if there's a point of diminishing returns in the model lineup Regarding radio: I'm lucky to live somewhere that still has excellent FM and AM radio stations, so I still tune in (usually...
