I had to wait 3 months for my speakers and still waiting on the grills. Also I have been waiting 4 months on parts for my vintage Marantz receiver. It does’nt matter who the company is, parts are hard to come by and manufacturers don’t really want... 
Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread
One should be educated about forums that mostly promote the manufacturers on those forums. Audiocircle is one that comes to mind. Sharing good and bad experiences on a forum can be a constructive tool but only if done in a reasonable, logical and ...

What is the BLUE JEANS equivalent for Power Cables?
I have used both Signal Cables and BJC and like them both for PC. I like BJC for interconnects but have used Signal as well. Also I like Pangea cables and Analysis Plus for speaker cables.  
Is There A Big Difference Between Subwoofers From Different Manufacturers
I have a different set of criteria than you. First is design and I like the servo design, and the brand that uses that design is Rythmik. There may be others, not sure. Secondly, I like integration as either easy or hard. I think SVS has an app th...

SVS vs REL and experiences with both: your comments and preferences...
ryder Yeah when I bought that sub, it was many years ago. I don't think they made those drivers anymore but they could have sold me an updated one? SVS has really taken off since then, the company has gotten bigger. The visit to the stereo/HT sto...

OP just go on Ebay and buy some vintage Bose 301s and come back here to tell all of us crabby pants old farts we spent too much money on our speakers because you have the real deal.  
Need Recommendations for a pair of Speakers around $1,000
Yeah Danny Richie actually debunks myths even with higher end speakers companies like Paradigm. He takes apart the cabinets and exposes the drivers, parts (capacitor brand/quality) and examines bracing build quality. Often it is surprising what yo... 
Is there a DAC ranking list?
"The CH Precision Factory certified $29K dac is a bargain with a HD streamer board. " I just ordered three, one for each one of my homes.  I got a 10% discount because i am a senior citizen. hahaha  
Almost equality
This may be the most important thought you will share with anyone and please take a moment to reflect... "I’m really happy with the sound of both digital and analog for the first time" Be happy!  
How important is spending time with your gear?
It sounds like, for many here, the gear is more important than the music.  
What do you sit on?
2 IKEA Poang chairs and 1 Rocking chair. I have two audio systems at the polar opposite ends of a big room facing each other. The three chairs are in the middle of the room and I turn the chairs toward the system I am listening to... at the time. ...
