My Dad loved Big Country when I was growing up, that “bagpipe” style guitar still has a soft spot in my heart. :D

“In a Big Country dreams stay with you.”

Good to see a fan of The Wizard on here. :)

Dopethrone, We Live and Come My Fanatics are my faves.

Yes, until there are no more left to replace the 'knocked out' ones with. With regard to SSD care best-practice, it's advised to avoid going past 70% capacity usage, this might be part of the reason...

The fun one, a 90s Swatch Chrono.

New daily banger, always fancied a Casio G-Shock, this is the DW-5600. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210205/c618e0230192b95455e5f47f325befb6.jpg

No, I don't think it'll make a significant difference.

The key change between the 3010S2D and 5010 pre is that the 5010 has balanced outputs, which you wouldn't use as you don't use the 5010 power...

Really nice tuner. :)

Dalis have a bit of a bright house sound. Silver-plated copper could slightly exasperate this, in my experience the silver plating does add a bit of 'toppiness' to the sound.

I'd recommend trying...

Correct. :)

You can also use butter, which some people prefer, or perhaps half lard and half butter. Some people use vegetable shortening, but this is not as nice.

Water pastry is hands-down the best pie pastry. :)

Spikes (coupling) and suspended wooden floors, just say no. :D

I concur that decoupling my speakers from the floor offered the best value for money upgrade I have had. Plus, my neighbours no...

Sure, the Van Damme "HiFi" UP-LCOFC cable has a good synergy with Exposure gear, due to its spaced shotgun construction = very low capacitance & moderate inductance, which is a good natural match for...

The roasting and beans will make a big difference here. Go for an El Salvador, Cuban, or Mexican medium roast for example and they are not very acidic. Some beans like Kenya Blue Mountain are way too...

I think this is a nice end to an Ethernet cable thread. I wonder if you had old Cat 5 cable, or a faulty cable, which was reducing the bandwidth for video transmission. That you heard no difference...

Weirdly am not a big fan of warmed or frothed milk. I think it’s because I like espresso (through a machine) or Americano (through a dripper), and have always just used cold milk.

I am a huge...

I tend to go for medium roast beans with “chocolate”, “biscuits”, “dried fruit” sorts of notes.

This one has that typical flavour profile I like, so low acidity, smooth yet with a complex flavour...

Piano, organ, cymbals, violin, and natural vocals.

Z-Plugs all the way. Way tighter fit than bananas, which I've often found to be quite loose.

Oh man... Brazilian Mogiana roasted 2 days ago. Look how lovely and even the roast is.

At RF, current takes the path of lowest impedance, so (playing Devil's advocate!) I wonder if these boxes are acting as some sort of RF ground / sink rather than a hard DC ground. A lot of the...

Hmm that's quite bad form for a lost parcel!

The root of the issue though was entrusting Hermes with a package full-stop.

My cables are pretty much all LC-OFC or PC-OCC (copper). It doesn’t have to be expensive either, unlike the equivalent pure silver...

I am not really a fan of using cables to try to tweak the sound, but I think it'd be unfair for me to say it always messes up the sound. I think yes, subjectively, silver plating can sound a bit...
