RIP to Maurice “Mo” Pinel, bowling ball revolutionary, of COVID-19 https://www.wired.com/story/one-mans-amazing-journey-to-the-center-of-the-bowling-ball/

I like the Dekoni's on the LCD2s. Parasound Zdac's back on sale if anyone is interested. Am listening to one at the moment. https://www.audioadvisor.com/prodinfo.asp?number=PAZDACV2

Thank you. I don't think there was ever a strong reason to get the HD8XX when I already had the HD800 (with old man's ears mod), but between what you said and Tyll's 2017 review, just cancelled and Headphones order in.

Not a concert, but a discussion in a few hours on Kind of Blue.

How do these compare to say a Drop $1100 HD8XX?

I haven’t figured out how yet, but my money is on Nicole Kidman being responsible.

Any chance you can just change to an Office alternative?

^ Speaking of, anyone have suggestions of especially good 33 1/3 titles? I've only read Bob Dylan’s Highway 61 Revisited. Gonna pick up the Pavement, but looking for others too. https://333sound.com/33-13-series/

I never realized Montana's western state line kinda looks like Nixon.

Apple Music officially announced that it is bringing lossless music quality options to its entire catalog at no extra cost, starting in June. Apple says lossless quality will be available for more than 75 million tracks in the Apple Music library. It is also launching support for Spatial Audio music with songs authored in Dolby Atmos. Users will be able to listen to select albums with an immersive 3D sound-space on AirPods, AirPods Pro, AirPods Max and Beats headphones with a H1 or W1 chip. Apple says thousands of Dolby Atmos songs will go live in June. https://9to5mac.com/2021/05/17/apple-music-announces-it-is-bringing-lossless-audio-to-entire-catalog-at-no-extra-cost-spatial-audio-features/ In related news... A few moments before Apple announced its HiFi plan, Amazon announced that its higher-quality music plan, Amazon Music HD, is now available to Amazon Music Unlimited subscribers at no extra cost. As first reported by Billboard, Amazon Music HD, which previously cost $14.99 a month and $12.99 for Prime Members, is now available to everyone with Amazon Music Unlimited, which costs $9.99 month and $7.99 for Prime members. https://9to5mac.com/2021/05/17/amazon-music-hd-available/

Hope you’re having a great day

“Rumors have indicated that Apple is preparing to launch a new "Hi-Fi" tier of ‌Apple Music‌ involving lossless audio and perhaps a Spatial Audio experience on compatible hardware. An announcement could come as soon as this Tuesday, May 18.” https://www.macrumors.com/2021/05/16/apple-music-about-to-change-forever/

Congrats. Do you dodge or ram (old Chrysler joke)?
