Gene maybe others are wondering too, but what paint color did you use in your stereo room?

Anew Gray - Sherwin Williams Satin finish

I realize, that the photos I post make it look much darker. It's not that dark......it's because I'm not using a flash.

When I go to images in Google with a specific paint color, it seems that there is always 5 or so pictures, that all look like completely different shades due to lighting, which is very misleading. I know from lots of experience painting that you have to use samples in your room to see what is going to give you the best results.

Cream darkened by burnt umber?

I think I can do that...maybe with some pictures and all that good stuff.

It's a great one, which I obviously have vinyl of as well. Haven't ripped it yet...I'm just grabbing stuff off the shelf...

Next, grabbed For Those About To Rock - AC/DC. My original copy from 1981.

This is a pretty good DVD with DD-5.1

I'm curious...Robin was 60 years old when he played in that concert...I wonder if he was as good as when he recorded Bridge of Sighs...he was 29 then...

I saw Trower live back in the 70's, I was stationed at S.A.C. headquarters Omaha. He and band put on a great show. Probably has slowed on the solos (like Clapton) in his later years; but the DVD is worth having!

I was on Acoustic Sounds today looking around and I decided to go in my account history and look at past orders...back in 2013 I ordered all 6 of the Door's SACDs...and much to my surprise...back then they WERE giving discounts on AP products...I paid $26.40 each for those $30 discs...I also noticed that they still have this boxset...it's the 6 SACDs and NOTHING else...just the cardboard box...the price is $280...if you purchased the stand alone SACDs they are $30 each...so $180 for them...another instance of adding $100 for a cardboard box...they must think we(music lovers)love cardboard or someone at Acoustic Sounds has a cardboard fetish

I have to say that going from all the activity in November and especially in December....with all the releases coming out...to right now is...well...bumming me out...I loved those 2 months...so much excitement...even with a couple of disappointments...so much good music came our way...and now it's so quiet on the surround front...with the Doobies in limbo....Tangerine Dream months away and not even a firm date yet...I'm still waiting on the Hendrix stereo SACD...it's underwhelming to say the least...that's probably why I bought the McCartney set...even though I knew it probably wasn't what I wanted...I just had to do something...makes me appreciate last year that much more with this "dead period"...
