Greetings from Idaho and thanks for having me.
I'm here at the suggestion of the one and only Steve Woolard, who I've known since our college and post college record store-working days. Since reconnecting in recent years, he's pointed me to some of his notable Quad releases, and I've been slowly picking them up along with numerous box set reissues as my favorites have come out over the years (with the accompanying DVD-A or BluRay 4.0/5.1/Atmos candy).
These "extras" languished in boxes until last Friday, when (at last) I added some Sonance ceiling speakers to the Sonos Arc in my listening room. I'm not the gear geek (lovingly used) that I'm sure many of you are, but even with this simple setup it's been a revelation to say the least.
The new challenges are these:
1. To figure out how to rip and playback these DVD-A and BluRay discs on my NAS via Sonos (or Plex if I must) WHILE maintaining the menu structure of these discs (I've seen the forum threads, but I have yet to dive in). Until then, the BluRay player stands ready.
2. To actually find all the physical copies of those same DVD-A and BluRay discs, which all live in various storage spots here at home. Wasn't sure I would ever need them. I know better now.
See y'all around.
