  • audiophile hi-fi

    okay, I have a new job and some dough but nothing mega whale-walloping so here’s ideas about how to have magic at a budget….the fuck that ring gimme good sound! type of investment.  I’ve scoured the net for information and reviews on valve type equipment… i.e. the “tube.”  this makes no never mind without something to make sound as in speakers. then there’re are keystones of content becoming sound… I am not a collector so there is no turntable stuff but there is some pricier computer stuff to pay for and also to squeal about.

    Canada is back again with such things as budget valve .  oh hail Canada the giver of insulin and thus life and now sound to fill it!and speakers sans cabinets

    mapletree audio design M.a.d. is great for an array of premade systems as they seem to no longer offer diy kits except if you sign a waver saying it’s not garunteed to work and thus you buy it you bought it.  otherwise the sonic performance is unbelievably great and warranty adequate at 2 years you pay to ship it  clause.

    Audio nir type with a kick to an independent cabinet maker should you wish to have something done upspeaker of the full .  full range means just that one speaker all the sonic spectrum.  the drawbacks seem to occur in the bass range where it doesn’t quit hit the 20 to 20k sound range but is close at 50-20k and needs the reflux versus being seeled.  the reflux is that silly lil vacuum hole somewhere by the way.

     

    oppo bdp 103  blueray to a great array of everything else including a take-over  yet windows manageable/controllable DAC covers everything stored online and or on the computer with the plus that it also comes equipped with a remote with line level remote controle so you can run a tube system in our modern lifestyles.  drawback is fancy computer cost  it is from japan and the remote can even be your android or apple phone.

    a quick search of old time radios gives me german ve 301s which can be one method of consealing a satellite rear speaker and the oyther can be a steampunkable victrola type with the exact same speaker amp and horn so as to be a perfect surrounding with utility of the .old-tymes.  it is possible to make your own records from cd or other good sources one or two just for the hell of it….in case you lack lp’s like me

     

    the drawq back here is obvious in that the cabinet cost for an am radio with horn  or turntable with horn both becoming satellite rear speakers is unknown at best.  this means add a paycheck….each.  the turntable equipment is 130, ish and the horn manufacture is also inexpensive at about the same speaker 100 a piece and the inclings are about 50uded valve amp matching are about 500… thus the only bitch now is a combinet at guaranteed 600-1400…because the average for parts to labor is about 2x more of part to labour.  ouch… expensive satelites!

    silver cable is about 300-500 more as in why bother to run a system on shit speaker cord?

     

    thus expect a good used car cost for audiophile sound because I cant diy .in word or electronics well.

    klipsch heresy 3′s and a reference grade center considered. as were dismissed cerwin vega, anything bose, bang and olufsen, everything infinity-shit quality build if good sound, polk audio boston auccoustics, altec lansing,blaupunkt, bower and wilksen, pinnacle came close. Yamaha did too.

  • Zombie Apocalyspe Prepations ZAP

    My metro is flooding somewhat…nasty storm parking for a pisser.  After seeing the technicalities of the flood over that of the legendary flood of the big thompson valley flood of just before I arrived.  after this horrendousness, was seeds of death a anti-gmo campaign and pledge drive for public tv with a gary null brand water filtration system.  it’s still raining where I’m at.

    I can not find things like how to destroy fertilizer runoff or hormonal water inclusions but i can discuss this major idea on how to be prepared for emergencies with water of a drinkable quantity and quality  here’s two links one to backpacking water sterilization or processing and one to the gary null user guide which is interestingly not but one brand name within an umbrella of filters.

    I’m more interested in a desalinator  a membrane hand operated way to get water out of the ocean….which annoyingly threatens to form around me minus the salt.

    and depending on your location and needs for your version of the hoped for zombie apocalypse…. a lil ancient water purification tech

    it’s called a ketttle.

    keep in mind that chloroamine – the major chlorinator of munipal water supply takes longer to dissapate thus hint lean towards the let it whistle some before making your boiled beverage.  you now have the caveman right to conk a tree too many for the safety of warmth and roasted animal and boiled beverage.

  • I always wanted a pool

    I do not live in the worst of the flooding.  I’m with mom as that’s how it works out.  my own home is on hills enough.  I sauspect the evil ever producing zucchini plant will produce a few whoppers in honour of this extra rain.  I’m next to a damn…the wrong sid of it to be anywhere near any danger.    I suspect this will cover some of the fire dangers for next year heh.  I pray for those of you who know people far closer or sodden.

  • the work week in review.

    I’m due to be fair less a blogging force.  I know this is inconvenient to the new Xanga when I need to care the most but you’ll perhaps write call instant message leave messages and that all because I’m in process to obtain my second job now or finallyfull time commitments but not full time pay…is that the definition hahaha of salary?  I wont get second job pay much brgotre yhnks giving but I am getting nowhere with out volunteering even if it took a decxade to learn why that is.

     

    I am becoming a medically related professional.  running activities for various entities.  my first job is with a nursing home and now I am trying to branch out to a paralleling field of being able to run as my own bioss a group for those with traumatic brain injuries.  please understandtand the difference boss versus assistant and note that like me if I don’t push for this I risk being harder to champion without an independent level of experience.  nevermind my on the job performance in this new age- independent references count it is and continues to get harder to be promoted from within.  I may have thus gotten my chance to get just that.

  • it works afterall?

    I was alerted to having the new x2o site and it appears I do.  I had seriously given up a week ago.
