When the Zune battery needs charged, use the mini-disc player.

3D printing parts to touch up the appearance of my vintage Bose 301 series II speakers.

She went with a Yamaha. It sounds so good.

The full audio wall. Getting ready to add a vintage receiver. Yamaha or Sansui? Stay tuned.

A little before and after. Tweeters repaired (on both speakers). I’m sure refoaming large woofers is way easier. I think I could do it better if I had to do it again. Also picked up some Pioneer CS-G204s. I think I have enough speakers.

The (mid-grade) HiFi system of teenage Ava’s dreams. In a vintage radio, turntable and tv cabinet to boot!

Ava’s audio journey continues. Picked up a pair of Pioneer CS-88a speakers at an estate sale for $40. Foam repair kits for the tweeters are on the way. Other than that, they sound pretty good for 53 year old speakers.

I buy music to support my favorite artists and to enjoy. Yes. That is a Breach first pressing by Twenty One Pilots.

Replaced the Aiwa XC-35M with a Yamaha CDC-555. Love the simplicity of design, great sound, and matches the year and aesthetic of the KX-W392.

I’m on a quest to own my music again. Can I borrow some CDs or cassettes?

Did it cost more that it would have new? Sure. But it’s had the belt replaced and it’s been serviced so I can enjoy it without worry.

How do I get to the geology side of BlueSky? Can anyone tell me more about my rock?

Made a different kind of cup today. 12 oz Polymer Tumbler. I think it turned out great. ☺️

Maybe I’ll just talk about my car here. Meet Jane, my APR Stg3 K04 2013 Audi allroad. Now, if someone would just sell E85 closer than 90 miles away. 😕
