Here you go...please keep in mind as supply chains are still wonky, there may be some adjustments to these items without notice.

One step down on the groupset but new 105 Di2 is supposed to be good.

yea not a big deal to me it's most likly more durable

other than the etap has easily replaceable batteries you can carry if you forget to charge or one goes bad

.....
first thing will be setting up the tires as tubeless and maybe heavier tires for arizona the land of cactus

Youll never have to worry about batteries If you charge like once every 2 months youll be good.

Thenaudio SHARC-V2 eARC processor

https://www.thenaudio.com/product/sharc-v2-8k-earc-audio-processor/

Will save me having to shell out $700+ for a new AV receiver because mine is older and doesn't support HDMI 2.1 and/or eARC. With my Xbox Series X hooked directly to my new 4K TV I could have HD audio sent to the receiver through the eARC ports if my receiver had one. The receiver also doesn't support HDMI 2.1 pass-through so can't hook it directly to that and get the best signal to the TV. What this processor does is take the HDMI 2.1 signal from the source and split off the audio signal while removing the eARC requirement so I can still get HD audio formats with my older receiver. The input video signal is passed on to the TV untouched. You can also get eARC audio output from the TV sent to the non-eARC receiver.

After seeing them live at the garden, I realized that the only copy of this album I had was on my old Verizon flip phone, that music is forever lost. Together with some other albums I purchased back when VZW had music for sale.
This is one of their older albums, I think he only well-known songs are Union of the Snake, and New Moon on Monday. There are some nice additional gems on this though.

nice! I have an ole HD600....haven't bought any replacement stuff, since it doesn't get as much use as my closed Beyerdynamic DT 770 but it does slightly sound better.

Edit: and now I just ordered replacement earpads for the 770, the current ones were pretty gross.

There's always some slight changes. I don't really follow the Domane line because I don't get the endurance bikes.

Well, it's a simple wallet enough for my cash, ID, credit and mirror card. Aren't all wallets kinda of unless now that more people use NFC pay?

It looks like your cards will fall right out because it has no rigidity. Most places use NFC but restaurants still use cards at nice places.
