I think I’m too old for cranking up the volume these days. I mostly just sit and listen while reading or working on a spreadsheet. Adulthood is exciting!

Adulthood has it’s own rewards.

Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.

I have checked 1,409,457,235 comments, and only 269,283 of them were in alphabetical order.

I laughed harder at this than I should have. Then I had to take an ibuprofen.

I am pleased to read of other’s passion for vintage hifi. I have Hafler gear. None of my peers care. It often seems that nobody under 50 appreciates vintage hifi. I just tell them to get off my lawn.

Like hypertension and swollen ankles.

No swollen ankles yet, but the hypertension is settling in, lol.

But if you were to crank it up, what would you blast? Or what was the last album you cranked up?

Please excuse me, I realise your question was directed at the Op but I can't resist. Mine was AC/DC Back In Black. Cranked all the way up to 11 because that is the only way to listen to that masterpiece.📢🎤🎸🥁📢

Oh man… that’s a tough one, as it depends greatly on the mood. Top five crank up tunes that come to mind (in no particular order):

  1. Low Self Opinion-Rollin’s Band
  2. Life On Mars-David Bowie
  3. Adore-Prince
  4. John Finn’s Wife-Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds
  5. Regret-Fiona Apple
