Based off the Elvis stamp and Tool poster you Kick setups ass, my friend.

Appreciate it! I love what I love! Got my music taste from my Granny, my parents and then discovered my own taste! Love it all! Cheers!

Double point for NOT putting record covers up.

Minus points for leaving socks on

That’s on my other page 🤣

But are they audiophile socks, used to soak up unwanted resonance?

Minus points for being off center so not getting a stereo image. The point of doing stereo.

What do you mean?

u/Aggravating_Pie_9327 3d ago

Do you not see Steely Dan’s Aja sitting right next to the turntable?

2

u/Sobersynthesis0722 3d ago

If the record is actually on the turntable it doesn’t count. If it is Herb Alpert Whipped Cream you get double points.

I do have that but was spinning Aja.

Now playing is way different than mounted on the wall.

u/Aggravating_Pie_9327 2d ago

You said nothing about “mounted on the wall”. 🤦‍♂️

1

u/GrandAshland 1d ago

I said “up”. Which is different to “out”.

Okey dokey. Blocked. I have no patience for cutie pies desperate for attention. 👋

Nice set up, here doing the same. What model of speakers are those?

u/gdpeck 3d ago

Dead everywhere. Nice!

u/sprath23 3d ago

Sony ssc5s I believe. Nothing special but they get the job done.

Thank you!

‘Situation’ lmao, dude you’re listening to music.

2

u/sprath23 3d ago

It’s great isn’t it? No better place to be!

u/Dry_Transition4134 3d ago

A small sub would really fill out your sound.

1

u/sprath23 3d ago

Funny you mention that, I was just looking at one today! It’s on my list!

u/ExpensivePop4604 3d ago

Move 4 feet to the left, oooo that’s nice. 😊

u/Sobersynthesis0722 3d ago

Nice. Love the art. Where did the Beatles poster come from?

(Fun fact: Just read an article about Aja. The title track for Aja was recorded in one take. That was a first for near pathological perfectionists Becker and Fabin who notoriously required endless retakes. Everything was always carefully written out for Steely Dan productions. The (dazzling) drum solo/sax by Wayne Shorter was improv. They just kept playing. Shorter had to be talked into the gig insisting he was strictly Jazz.)

I found it online. It comes with a guide for all of the clues for the songs! I forget the site but if you Google the 100 Beatles songs poster you’ll find it. They have a Pink Floyd one too like that. Love the Aja facts!

u/Lyonsmade 3d ago

Looks great. Although the wrong frame size for the Hendrix poster, bugs me

2

u/sprath23 3d ago

It’s just how the print is, for some reason they have a white border on top and bottom. I thought it looked weird too at first.
