I love my P3. It was a great turntable out of the box but the Neo PSU was a pretty significant upgrade and the RS P3 comes with that so I would have bought that if it was available. IMO the P3 is pretty untouchable at its price point so I do not see a comparable unit being better than the P3 RS within a reasonable price differential.

Watched the OKC Comets (AAA Club of Dodgers) lose 3 - 2 to the Tacoma Rainiers. Have not been to a Baseball game in ages. It was a lot of fun.

A wonderful last week of work, topped off by a small celebration with some team members, and our CIO (blond-haired woman). The first couple of my cube, with the obligatory note that - as of today - everything is now MY fault. But a shirtload of notes on multiple cards and extra pieces of paper.
I ended up topping the night off with a call with a hometown friend. She is a troubled soul and needed a supporting voice. We talked until 3:30am this morning! I wish I could do more to help people, but being a good listener and supporter is good for now.
Welcome to the club.
We are currently sitting in the Phoenix airport waiting for our son’s flight to land. Oh and we are both drinking a beer because what is a better deal than airport beer.

Time to watch my favorite Robert Duvall movie, "The Great Santini." RIP to one of the greats.
I love that movie and True Grit (1969) has one of my all-time favorite exchanges

Using a Star Wars reference Dick Cheney is/was Emperor Palpatine (Darth Sideous), Rumsfeld was Darth Vader and Trump is Kylo Ren (A pale imitation wannabe of Vader). Just Sayin’

Yeah, that’s what I tell myself, “I’m mature”. My wife also says that but there is no space between the two ms.

I totally missed this thread. Maybe I am subconsciously trying to forget I’m old. Anyway my thanks to all-you-all for the birthday wishes.

It is supposed to last about 10 years with very little drop-off in efficacy during that time. I already have my calendar marked.

Having had a mild case of shingles I got the Shingrix vaccine as soon as I could. Also no real reaction to it on this end. So totally agree with Al.

Wow that was overly dramatic and just plain stupid. Please, before you post stupid bullshit, learn to use the interwebz. (Directed at the poster of the link Pars posted, not Chris)

Well the first two color images had to be taken after 1970 as the album pictured in those two, Swingin’ the Louis Armstrong SongBook by Swing Society with Nannie Porres, was recorded in 1970. Anyway, John Thomas also played trombone with the Louis Armstrong band after replacing Kid Ory and was playing on tour with Armstrong in the 60s.

I have a older Roon Nucleus that has an HDD that I installed. I also have an iFi black label headphone amp/DAC. I connected everything to my audio system but I have forgotten how to do headphone listening easily. The black label is connected to the nucleus directly with a USB connection. If I go to my laptop to view Nucleus selections in my internal storage and click on one, should I be able to listen to it from a set of headphones connected to the DAC/Amp? This is embarrassing.
When it comes to integrating with my audio system it seems easier. I connect the Nucleus to my iFi amp/dac and then run analog RCA's to my preamp to listen to music.
The iFi is just a Roon endpoint. Choose it as the active endpoint in Roon , connect headphones and voila.
RIP someone or another

My condolences Todd. I am so glad you reconnected with him.
