MORE ON THAT "CAR AUDIO CULTURE' SITUATION

So it has been recommended that those with an interest check out and/or do a search---on several REDDIT pages featuring this scene---Sound Quality (SQ) & Competitions---because from what we're reading--and we're not spending any more time on this though you may want to--the Hudson Valley region is a major hub for audiophile-level car audio through the HVR (Hudson Valley Regionals) Sound Quality Competition. Unlike basic "bass-heavy" shows, SQ competitions judge vehicles on sound staging, imaging, and tonal accuracy. They pop up periodically especially during the summer months. Rockland, Spring Valley, Haverstraw, Yonkers, the Bronx, and parts of Peekskill particularly are home to these meetups. 

But we're hoping this is over for the time being...and we're back to relatively quiet nights and Sunday mornings.

JAY CARLISLE: JOHN SARCONE III WAS ALWAYS AND IS QUALIFIED

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.



As someone who has spent decades in the law profession, studying the legal profession, I have watched with growing frustration as critics and segments of the media attempted to portray John A. Sarcone III as somehow "unqualified" to serve as United States Attorney for the Northern District of New York.

That narrative was flawed from the beginning. Today, it is indefensible. MORE AT In My Opinion: John Sarcone III was always and is qualified.
