  1. This is insanity.
  2. She’s a big fan of plastic surgery for sure.
  3. Anytime Novak gets a little momentum or break or anything, Sinner comes right back. No soul searching, no wound licking. Novak gave it all in the 2nd and Sinner had answers. See how it goes from here.
  4. Really was enjoying watching Musetti. Bummer he had to retire. But man, Sinner looks unstoppable. Kinda reminds me of Novak but with more power. Terrifying.
  5. Yeah a friend had some Heresy and I was as into the general vibe. For good measure I went to a hifi shop here in the city and listened to the Fortes. He was driving them with a Lab12 tube amp and it was really nice. He let me listen to some Borreson x1, driven by an insane system, and it was mind blowing - Bookshelf sized speakers and it was literally a wall of sound, but super articulated, analytical. Fun for a little while but also exhaustive listening.
  6. Forte IV. Bought them off a guy a few hours away. He’s had these and another pair of speakers and he preferred the others. 6 months old.
  7. Pulled the trigger on some Klipsch Forte today. I think the wifey was a little taken aback by the size initially (giggity) but man they sound so good.
  8. Rinderknech out here shooting his shot, throwing pirouettes and no-looks. Pretty entertaining before Sinner inevitably squashes him.
  9. Damn. Coffee and French open and Stearns is already bounced?
  10. Except the Hulu app. It sucks on Apple TV and sucks on iOS.
  11. They’re looking gouda.
  12. What did I miss? Did he get Luigi’d?
  13. I saw the Master when it first came out in the theaters. I liked it a lot. But over the years I’ve revisited it and it’s highly rewatchable. Some amazing performances and moments in there, obviously led by Hoffman and Phoenix.
  14. Ordered a NAD C 3050 amp and a Wiim Pro Plus streamer. I wanted to do a side by side test with the marantz. Good lord, even with the speaker cracking and cutting out at low levels, the Marantz mops the floor with the NAD. The streamer/dac has made a huge difference though - I’d previously been streaming thru an old Apple TV that had an optical out and used a basic dac from Amazon to get the signal to the marantz. Next up I think I might try to audition some new speakers and see the difference. But the NAD is going back for sure.
