Documenting 48 Chairs, the unlikely coupling of British free jazz bastion Lol Coxhill and the saucy synth pop don't-wannabes known as Gerry And The Holograms, 70% Paranoid is a rare incognito full-length album. It bridges the micro-niches of electronic jazz and punk jazz from a band formed in 1979 at an axis where DIY and new wave hadn't quite collided! With sprinklings of post-punk female vocals worthy of PragVEC and Suburban Lawns, featuring angular art rock paeans to voodoo dolls and closed-circuit TV, this privately pressed LP comes directly from the man who gave Factory Records's Martin Hannett some of his best ideas and wrote the blueprint for Manchester's new musical order. Imagine if Talking Heads became Mark E Smith's backing band for a week before being sacked for wearing a Frank Zappa t-shirt while Eric Dolphy forgot to take his headphones off. If that sounds attractive, one should be paying double. A genuine lost moment from the post-punk era with progressive pop credentials from the university of Alberto y Lost Trios Paranoias before everyone got a job at the local Factory. Why are you the only person who doesn't know about this? As one of the few fully formed feature-length album projects of the immediate independent post-punk era, the 1981 album 70% Paranoid by 48 Chairs is still often referred to as one of Manchester's best-kept secrets by many of the anti-genre's most switched-on collectors and critics. Combining the talents of the squat-pop synthesists who brought you Gerry And The Holograms with the free jazz Brit-skronk of Lol Coxhill and gelled together with vocals by female punk one-timer Fran Kershner, this seldom-travelled, hand-assembled LP was both deeply underground and wildly overambitious, earning it an inverted status as a genuine "unknown pleasure". Politely waiting in queue for delayed accolades to this day, 70% Paranoid was born out of a direct reaction to the short-lived journalistic cranny known as "new-music" which bridged the pigeonholes of punk-rock and new-wave allowing a small wide-eyed flock to escape the coup in the process. Evading the final nails in the coffin of prog and jazz-rock and dreading the reverse reverb of the New Romantic onslaught, a certain breed of overqualified underdogs, with small plates and huge Zappa-tites took the Mancunian manifesto of do-it-yourself and decided to do-it-your-own-way instead, with a secret hope that the book shelf was gonna collapse either way.

Decent Monitor Stand with Some Assembly Required
Size: Single, Style: Free-Standing
This monitor stand works pretty well and is a good value for the price. It’s sturdy and adjustable, which makes it perfect for a variety of monitors, including my 32-inch curved Samsung. The assembly is straightforward if you have a Phillips screwdriver and something to tighten bolts, like a wrench. It’s solid once it’s put together and holds my monitor securely. The phone holder could use some improvement. It doesn't adjust to face me directly, which is a bit annoying. The stand itself is great for saving desk space and providing better ergonomics, but it can be a bit of a hassle to assemble if you’re not handy with tools. Overall, a good buy if you need a reliable monitor stand.

Works, Good product, but wouldn't recommend for specifically 3 27inch screens.
Size: Triple, Style: Free-Standing
I purchased this stand to have 3 27inch 2560x1440 monitors, with the side ones angled towards me in a typical 3-monitor setup often seen being used by racing or aviation simulator guys. This stand's arms for the two side monitors are not long enough to have said monitors angled more than 5 to 8 degrees meaning they are forced to be completely linear which is incredibly awkward to try to use because you can barely see or use the screen space on the far edges. 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐬, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐞, 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐛𝐮𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬. The product description should not say it can hold 3 27 inch screens because the amount of struggling I had to do to get it to be acceptable was ridiculous. The stand is... not heavy enough to safely hold monitors of this size either, and additional weight was required ( 2 10lb dumbbells in my case ) configuring the height of your monitors with this stand can be dangerous as well as they could fall down the central post so you have to be extremely careful, but, it is pretty easy other than that. It is a great option if you don't have a desk with an edge for typical stands ( I don't. ) You can place the stand anywhere, and you don't have to drill through your desk if you really don't want to. The cable clips are a very nice included bonus, and they sent me a replacement without any hassle when I totally effed up my first attempt at setup. But, I would have shopped harder and got something else if I knew all this prior all the same. Maybe even bought a gigantic curved screen instead.
