I found a way to get around tariffs that will raise the price of audio equipment.
dill- good point I was throwing a big hint to my fellow audiophiles out there. Maybe, just maybe you might avoid the temptation to collect more audio equipment. Have a chair, grab a drink and listen to the music. Reap the benefits of your choices...

I say again…. Back to regularly scheduled programming. How will you avoid the higher costs of audio gear associated with tariffs? New or used gear?

@mark200mph “My ears. Have fun with it all and the experience” I would agree most people would leave this out of the discussion. And yes if your hearing is deficient, you may not know it without a hearing test and you can do something about it b...

tomcarr Funny that you post this. It has been my experience over many years that matches yours. The quality of the recording and engineering/production makes ALL the difference in the world. Garbage in, garbage out. It does not matter how resolvi...

Disagreements and Conflicts between Audiophiles have we lost our brotherhood and maturity?
Inna, calvinj and bigtwin - I understand and I agree wholeheartedly.

There are some valid comments here concerning the internet and anyone able to say something offensive or inflammatory without fear of repercussion. I think of two drivers and driver A has some road rage and tries to get the other driver B to pull ... 
Speakers sound too bright.
stringreen +1 and jond +1 Far too many speakers out there to try. If you get the right pair, your toes should tapping immediately and it will sound better with room treatment and break-in. Return the speakers and try your best to audition the pot... 
Need to learn about Audio Research

Look at the Rogue Audio Cronus Dark. All tubes. Beautiful sound and build. Made in PA so easy to get parts and repaired. 100wpc. If your speakers are not hard to drive, this would be a great choice. Sorry didn’t see the SS requirement.   
Bose Chucks Mac
I would buy a cable or connector from Best Buy and maybe a printer. We have a Magnolia room in a store but I have not been in there in many, many years. I don’t think the young people who work there know much about high fidelity. In the other home... 
The new dCS Varese DAC...it is so good that all others are now relegated to history??
An audio reviewer OVER HYPED a product! No way!  
Send in the Clowns
Ask yourself these two questions. Can I live with and be happy with my audio equipment if it measures really well but doesn’t sound great? Conversely, can I live with and be happy with my audio equipment if it sounds great but doesn’t measure well...
