Tennent away this weekend so letting rip with the system. New components now have 29hrs on them and it shows. The BI has really started to open up since yesterday afternoon. Extra detail, space and texture, everything just seems tighter and faster and I'm seeing further into the music without feeling I've crossed that fine line between music and hifi.
Where next? 🤔
Maybe I will have to investigate this triple C stuff, now lets see, how much is it going to cost me (made up, not diy) for 3x 0.5m RCA pairs, a 1m - 1.5m xlr pair & 2m SCs??

Today, I went to see Arrested Development at the Jazz Cafe, most excellent they were, too. Wanted to see them for years and finally made it.  |

Today I am now cursing this bloody DAC.
I've not been able to do any reading, (normally devour books whilst listening) it just keeps pulling me back into the music. Also at some point in the next couple of hours I'm going to have to give myself a slap and telling off before sending myself to bed.

Leeds United were relegated from the Premiership, back down to the Championship. They were there 16 years until finally managing promotion in 2020. It's been topsy turvy in the few years back, this season they have been particularly awful, woeful towards the end and have leaked goals all season long.
Not particularly passionate about domestic football but Leeds is where I was born and bred, hence post.

Scrubbed the kitchen floor: hands and knees, Flash, and a scotchbrite pad. Who knew that vinyl would be so tenacious with dirt?

Not quite today but on Saturday I replaced the brake fluid and then took it for a spin to makes sure all was good - a grand day it was, so sunny and warm:   |

Always good to see chaps looking after the steeds, in the day my 900r I used to replace the Avon blue spot every 900 miles on the rear and break fuild every 6 months.
Now the Kwacker just gets a N02 top up and oil + fiter change every 6 months regardless of mileage
It was glourious yesterday gninnham for a run and your bike looks 100% as well
