You know you're getting old when all of this technobabble goes right over your head, and you're fine with that.

Unless you are using six-figure audio equipment, I guarantee you that you cannot tell the difference between lossy and lossless playback.
Make that three: :rofl:You know you're getting old when all of this technobabble goes right over your head, and you're fine with that.
I was trying to be polite, but I do appreciate your humour.:nerd:
GHT I didn't know you spoke police language.
A good friend of mine is a former firefighter/paramedic/EMT/dispatcher, and the specific language used in those professions became such a part of his everyday speech that he often didn't realize he was using it in his off-hours until I informed him I had no idea what he was talking about, at which point he had to stop to think about what he had said and how to re-phrase it in "normal" English. lolYou know you're getting old when it becomes part of your language & bring it home & expect everyone to understand wtf your are saying ! :eusa_doh:
What's your 20 ?
you copy?
I'm 10-10A
Never play postwar 78s on any kind of a mechanical phonograph unless you hate them, want them to sound terrible, and anxiously look forward to their destruction.
Have you guys tried any Canadian made Brunswick records of the twenties? An audiophile friend, and record collector, told me they are extremely good, very well made, on equipment that was state of the art for the times. He played me one, and even my tin ears could tell the difference.
For my money the best sounding records of the early electrical era are black-label Columbia Viva-Tonals from 1927-31. Clean, crisp, and full of worthwhile listening. And Moran and Mack, but why bring that up?
It gets worse. Time comes when you look in the mirror and think: Grandad?You know you're getting old when you look in the mirror and say
"Dad?"
when high school kids call you "gramps" or "pops" or "old man"
