    Ray Alexander Technique OG check

    As far as I can tell both the original and reissue have the same cover and labels. What confuses me is that popsike lists OGs as both Harlem Sounds SA 001 and Lu Jun 2001. Wasn't the reissue in 2001? Popsike has labels that read 2001 under "side 1". Does this mean reissue? Can anyone with the OG...

    I've been waiting for this documentary for over a year now and apparently it is finally done. I backed it through kickstarted but never received my DVD copy. Was wondering if anyone's seen the film and what they thought. Here's the trailer: Take Me Away Fast Documentary Trailer from Leigh...

    Busted headphone jack fix?

    The headphone jack on my mixer is only outputting sound to one channel. If I fiddle with the jack a bit I can hear sound on both sides intermittently and if I put the plug in only half way it seems to work fine. But if I plug it all the way just the left channel works. Wondering if anyone on...

    What's the perfect Soulstrut wedding?

    I got hired to do a wedding Labor Day weekend and the couple is super chill music wise. Fan of my blog and mixes and all that stuff and are pretty much giving me free license to do whatever I want.

    Beats by Dre

    I'm looking for a new pair of DJ/listening headphones and was thinking about getting a pair of these. I'm finding that the reviews online run the gammut from incredible to cheap/overpriced/etc. Wondering what the Soulstrut consensus is on these?

    Real World Strut (Advice Needed)

    So I usually wouldn't turn to the strut for real world advice, but I've run into a moral dilemma that I feel people on here may be able to give some sage advice on. Basically, my wife and I are in the market to buy a house in the Bay Area. We are expecting a child in November, and with the...

    Jazz Record Center NYC

    Has anyone dealt with them before? I just won something on ebay and was told they don't accept paypal. They want me to send my credit card info in two different emails. Isn't this against ebay's policy? Plus I have no buyer protection if I do this. I'm pretty sure this place is supposed to be...

    Pics of Your Now Setup

    It's been a while since we've done one of these, and since the Strut's got a new look I figured it was time for a new thread. Plus I recently upgraded my setup and saw this as a good opportunity to nerd out. Been using milk crates and slabs of ply wood for about 8 years now and finally got...

    Vintage electronics repair in the Bay Area

    Anyone know of a good repair shop, preferrably SF or east bay? I've got an old pioneer receiver with one speaker channel broken. Think it would be a relatively easy repair in the right hands. Thanks for the help.

    What kind of bag do you rock?

    I'm looking into getting some sort of day bag that can carry my camera, small laptop if need be, journal, maybe records and other items that I might use on a daily basis.
