    Small lift, slightly oversized tires, well...
    My son has a Crosstrek, sleeping in it would be a non-starter.

    I could sleep in one.


    No one else would fit though. Bare essentials only. It would be..... Cozy.

    True, but they are nice to have. I also remove mine when I know I'm not going to need it for a while.

    Finally dived into the modern world... ordered a NAD network streamer for my upstairs stereo. Now I can get Spotify through my headphones. Money well spent.

    maybe im confused but based on what you wrote, it sounds like you are streaming Spotify to a stereo and then connecting headphones to said stereo? that seems like the hard way to listen to Spotify so I must be missing some important detail.

    on the top of bad financial decisions, does anyone have a Packraft? I know there are a lot of kayakers in here but could be fun to have something for a quick float that doesn't take up a lot of space.

    I have a cheap Bluetooth adapter hooked to mine for the ability stream from my phone if I want something other than vinyl.

    Streaming Spotify to the stereo head unit with quality headphones I totally understand from a convenience standpoint. Granted it will make the deficiencies of the compression and streamed bit rate very apparent.
    In the interesting of bad financial decisions I suggest Pat look into a phone based set up with an outboard DAC and headphone amp...

    I'm on the Apple Music bandwagon as well. I like it and it works well with my existing library of music.
    I believe @rubbersidedown is using Tidal because they have the highest payout to the artists.

    ive got airplay for everything at home. its a quick and easy way to do whole home audio too.

    I use my AirPods pros near daily. back in the zoom days I used to be on calls 6-8 hours a day so needed the battery life. luckily im not on calls that much these days.

    The AirPod pros are great at work for the noise cancellation too. Print shop can be a bit noisy at times.

    noise cancelling headphones are life changing. you dont realize how noisy places are until they are silent.
