  1. If we're Talking music leaking from 80's Hi-Fi Show demo rooms, then I think we need to mention ... "Can your come up with a reference track that will be played to death, somewhat blunting the sonic qualities through ubiquity?" Yello: Hold My Toblerone!
  2. I guess us proles will just have to Pass?

  17. Here's one approach https://support.hifiberry.com/hc/en-us/articles/205699981-How-to-build-a-multiroom-audio-system-based-on-Raspberry-Pi-and-Hifiberry?mobile_site=true The RasPi's make a commodity streamer / digital endpoint. Room ( and slimserver ) support multi player / grouping / syncing control. Centralized (multi channel) Amp (s) and distributed analog signal to passive speaker's ? Distributed RasPi's to active speaker's? Distributed RasPi's with (HiFi Berry?) Amp HAT's and passive speaker's? Plenty of different Audio signal path architectures , all behind the same digital path/control architecture. Or mix and match? Nice problem to have.

  20. http://www.331fish.com/ We got there just before closing to avoid any crowds. We could have called in the order from home, but waited until we were within 5 minutes. Went in, paid for order, waited outside. (Packed) Order bought to the table were we were waiting. Picked it up and proceeded to the car in the parking lot where we enjoyed it, piping hot. I had an iced Usual waiting, and Joanne's "Tea" in her Contigo seemed to have a frothy head and an ABV. Allegedly.
  21. Zoinks, surely. https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/zoinks#Etymology
