do you ever just head down in the basement...


Recommended Posts

dig through old music not attached to the internet and loudly jam some music? 

wife and daughter are both gone ATM and I felt like firing up the vintage Denon and Polk audios and relaxing.  

is this a safe space for a what are you just chilled and listening to thread like the what's for dinner thread?  

this thread is @EvilBird's fault btw.  :roflcrying:

Sold all my LPs on ebay years ago.  No ragrets.  Everything is available online now. I want to find a reason to resurrect my old Onkyo receiver and CD player but just lack the motivation.  My JBL bluetooth with Pandora or Spotify scratches the itch.

more family space than my own and our daughter coopted it into her own hangout but my vintage Harley,  early 1990's Denon and Polk's get to live amongst multiple couches, air hockey table, art hutch and f'ng LEDs she insisted upon.  

Pardon my photography but I'm on beer #? and rocking some Toto of all things in the collection.  :roflcrying:

judging by the dust on the knobs I need to open the audio cabinet and do this more often. 

wife asked for Queen greatest hits after I scared her shitless by grabbing her ankle from my hiding spot.  :lmao:

happily obligated and it's amazing how loud one can play it without them sounding bad

i have denon system as well, pushing cerwin vega speakers that are on the floor. i've calmed in my old age in the house and car. i was always one to have a cerwin vega 15 in the trunk of my jetta and some big ass home speakers. these little cerwin vegas have 8s in them and will blow the windows out. i still have all my vinyl, cassettes, and cds. sometimes we pull out some vinyl and take turns on a side of an album. she has like taste in music till it hits frank zappa or heavy shit.

Used to listen to, and watch Pulse by Pink Floyd hooked up to surround sound with my brother's old Omega cabinet speakers. He also had a nice OLD Sony system where we'd listen to The Wall, Back in Black, anything Zeppelin, and Black Sabbath with some solo Ozzy mixed in. The Sound of Bread, Boston, Foreigner, Queen, Journey, Triumph... He had a hell of a vinyl collection but not sure what happened to it. So much good music!

Use to go down to my bar and listen to music now I go to the lower garage and listen to music and golf.  Both have decent sound systems in the walls/ceiling.
