    Any Subaru Outback owners?

    If ESS stands for Engine Stop Start, I made sure there was a way to turn it off on my new Tahoe. GM does turn it on every time I start the engine and I have to press a button on the dashboard to turn it off. I feel the extra wear on the starter motor and solenoid make Engine Stop Start a bad...

    Any Subaru Outback owners?

    Two weeks ago I traded my Subaru and bought a Tahoe. Over time I came to hate the CVT and the Turbo lag in summer was ridiculous. I did get an extremely high trade-in on the Subaru.

    Dogs. Too much of a good thing?

    I am retired and I am comfortable. I currently have 5 small breed dogs. Each one have chronic health problems that would make them way too expensive for the average pet owner. I make sure they get everything they need and this way they can live out the rest of their lives comfortable and loved...

    I Regressed And Bought A New Watch

    My Citizen Eco-Drive after over 10 years was starting to have the battery go bad, so I bought a "Tissot Gentleman Stainless Steel Dress Watch". So far I really like the Tissot.

    Bone-stock 2023 Z06 `Vette lays down a 610 RWHP dyno run

    Also Chevrolet has in the past conservatively rated the horsepower for their performance engines. I was told in 2000 by Scott Settlemire(former Camaro brand manager) the reason why the LS1 powered Camaros had really good RWHP on the dyno is that they were conservatively rated.

    Asking for a Friend :) Two Schiit Aegirs Or One PrimaLuna EVO 300 ?

    The Forte IV has the same 99db SPL at 1 meter as the Heresy. Attached is a chart that Paul Klipsch put together that shows that the Heresy will do 100db average with 110db peaks in a 3,000 cubic feet listening room with 14 watts. So like you say, "Try one Aegir in stereo first. May be plenty of...

    Asking for a Friend :) Two Schiit Aegirs Or One PrimaLuna EVO 300 ?

    I have a Freya S, an Aegir and a pair of Klipsch LaScala AL3 speakers. I used to run a Dennis Had Inspire single ended pentode tube amp. The Aegir has the wonderful sound of the tube amp, but also the Aegir gave me some Solid State low frequency punch that was missing from the tube amp. Bear in...

    Schiit Fans ?

    I bought my Bifrost 2 OG last October and in June I bought an Yggdrasil OG. The Yggdrasil OG has a very similar sound signature to the Bifrost 2 OG, The Yggdrasil OG has more refined detail and more refined sound stage. I listen to 50's, 60's, 70's and early 80's rock and roll, I also listen to...

    Schiit Fans ?

    Finally got around to hooking my Bifrost 2 to my Mac Studio Ultra and then from the Bifrost 2 to my Klipsch the Sixes speakers. The Bifrost 2 is a big improvement when compared to the internal DAC in the Klipsch the Sixes. The sound is so much fuller and detailed. Now I am deciding if I want to...

    Oil Changes these days! $$$$$

    When I got my 2019 Corvette Z06, Chevrolet gave me 2 free oil changes. On the first oil change the dealer did not properly tighten the oil filter and I had an oil spot on the garage floor. I put an 1/8 turn on the filter and it never leaked again. I did not let them do the 2nd free oil change...

    Schiit Fans ?

    One week ago I ordered an Yggdrasil OG b-stock. It arrived Wednesday and I have been using it for over three days now. It sounds a lot like my Bifrost 2, but the sound is more refined and detailed. My Yggy OG sounds better every day, some people have told me it could take up to a month before it...

    Schiit BiFrost II vs Denafrips Ares II?

    I got my Bifrost 2 in November. It sounds really good to me. I do keep wondering what a Schiit Yggdrasil OG sounds like, but I am very satisfied with my Bifrost 2.

    What's your "go to song" to test bass in your rig?

    My Klipsch LaScala Speakers don’t go much below 50hz either, so “Smoke on the Water” is a good match for the LaScala’s.
