| Do people hate Eversolo on here? Or is it liked some? I don’t have an opinion on Eversolo specifically but my sense is on par with others here about customer service and dedication to helping buyers of the company’s products. I think the reason Bluesound has had success is not that they have the best... | |
| Need to get off of bluetooth.... looking for a wifi streamer for my budget My experience with streamers and DACs is this; To get good to very good sound and even spectacular sound, the streamer is not nearly as important as the DAC. I have had Bluesound streamers and then bought a higher price streamer and the difference... | |
| I'm Just Not Hearing It..., Do You??? I listen to the music and enjoy it. I really don't get caught up in the media I use. It's much easier for me to close my eyes and forget the equipment, much more enjoyable of an experience. But I get your question...just not my cup of tea. | |
| Validation +1 Mulveling To me these kinds of questions are silly. But I will play along. No I don’t need any kind of validation. I do feel bad for anyone who does. | |
| How competitive are you with your system? As I have said in my earlier post, often what happens to audiophiles and their precious audio systems is the child analogy, “my kid is smarter than your kid”. You can see that evolve here quite clearly. If you enjoy your equipment and system is al... | |
| A Low Cost Pleasant Sounding Used CD Player? Sony or Pioneer Elite. Look for a good transport (CD spinning system/design) | |
| How competitive are you with your system? IMO a large part of the problem of things like “ranking one’s personal audio system” against another one or the idea of comparison or competition is this. Whatever audio system you build is an assembly of wires, capacitors, transistors, transforme... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? Weird. Yes I agree. For myself I have a listening environment that gives me much enjoyment, relaxation, fun and something I look forward to do, listen to music in all its wonderful glory and nuances. Why would I want to bring competition into it? ... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? I think it’s stupid to compare or worse rank my system with anyone else. Sounds like teenager stuff. Just enjoy the music without stupid games that make one look like they are 12 years old. | |
| How Much to Spend on Turntable, Cart., Phono Pre Sorry I missed some of the posts. That TT and tonearm looks like a great choice. Happy listening!! | |
| How Much to Spend on Turntable, Cart., Phono Pre Just out of curiosity, what made you decide on this TT and cartridge? I have no reason to think it will not sound great, I am sure it will but I am always interested in what draws someone to a particular audio component. | |
| How Much to Spend on Turntable, Cart., Phono Pre I cannot say how much the TT has made a difference in sound as opposed to the cartridge and phono preamp. As much as I dislike the word “synergy “ there is a distinct advantage to buying components that enhance one another. For me, I had relied on... | |
| How Much to Spend on Turntable, Cart., Phono Pre For what it’s worth I had a Thorens belt drive TT back in the late 1980s. Got rid of it when CDs came on the scene. The TT was difficult to set up and never sound great. Fast forward to 2024 and the purchase of the VPI. WOW what a difference. Much... | |
| How Much to Spend on Turntable, Cart., Phono Pre Sometimes one can go to a dealer or audio show and the turntable, cartridge and phono preamp are already selected (often by an experienced dealer). When the listener is auditioning, they essentially are evaluating all three together. I actually th... | |
| Mick Ralphs has passed away Very sad indeed. Seems like all my rock and roll heros are leaving for the big gig in the sky. He wrote and co-wrote some killer tunes. Mott the Hoople and Bad Company were very cool bands. RIP Mick. He needs to be in the R&R HOF next. |
