I use my echo to stream amazon music, it could be nicer though.

jwick

I have an old iPod that only works while plugged in. I have it on you of those speaker docks.

I have two FM receivers and they are so old they dont have any inputs and only one large 6.35mm output for headphones.
Edit* one has inputs for rca type connectors, I bet a 3.5mm split to that would work.

madwi

Trying to find an all in one type unit. Networked, one or two HDMI in-> one out, FM, bluetooth, wireless/wired, 3.5mm audio input. Not asking for much.

jwick

Pretty sure my Onkyo has all that, but I don’t recall if I hooked it up to the WiFi.

My garage setup is an old WinXP laptop running foobar2000, a USB HDD with MP3s, FLACs, APEs, etc, and some old Harman-Kardon powered computer speakers. I set foobar to random play and slap the space bar if I want to skip a song. It will get loud enough to make conversation difficult but it won't blow you out of the garage.

I am getting spoiled with voice commands, especially when a song I hate comes on while im under the car.

jwick

I just create playlists for car work. Might not be a song I’m in the mood, but they all good.

It would be really nice to have a receiver be able to pull movies or music from a VM running Plex or something like it and still be able to use voice commands from Alexa to control music from their streaming service.

madwi

I just tell alexa to play classic rock or whatever im in the mood for. She usually picks a good playlist.

These look interesting...

In theory, I love ratcheting wrenches. In practice, they fit nowhere i actually need them.

I have multiple sets. Standard, metric, flex head, pivoting and bunch of one off sizes for things I needed that didn’t come in a set. I probably $500-600 worth of GearWrench in my tools set. Love them!

I have metric with flex head. I can tell you they've come in useful to me in maybe 2 situations ever. They just don't have a small enough profile when I really need them to work.

I have the adapter that fits in the ratcheting portion and allows you to put a socket on it. They have been helpful at times.
