| Qobuz or Apple Music? I use Qobuz and Tidal. I had used Itunes (Apple) to organize my music for a very long time in the distant past but found it frustrating. I don’t think I could explore Apple music for this reason. Music streaming is done with Bluesound Node and Blu... | |
| Analog vs. digital Given the fact we have had CDs since the 80’s and DACs exist along side analog ....we all have the best of both worlds. Life is grand. It’s like having a Ferrari and Lamborghini in your garage and asking which is best??? You can drive either one o... | |
| Why do hipsters prefer analog? waytoomuchstuff The day is not over yet.... | |
| Line Magnetic LM-845 Premium - How quiet is it? I have a LM 216 integrated. It’s a bit old now but I really like it. About 5 years into owning it a transformer went bad. I took it to my dealer and he sent it to the distributor for repair. This was pre-covid and I had it back in 60 days. I am pr... | |

| hearing loss and amp choices Well that amp is going to sound great, hearing loss or not. Great choice. I have a Line Magnetic and can never go back to SS. Long live Vacuum tubes! Congratulations! | |
| Best/Cheapest/Easist Way To Burn CD's? Another approach. Not sure if it is of interest to you, Buy a new or used Bluesound Vault. With that, you will have a FLAC version of your CD made and stored on the built in HDD and also a streamer. No fuss and it works well. Also the Vault will f... | |
| My MC 2205 Amplifier is smoking??? I don't think the word "smoke" and the word "amplifier" should be used in the same sentence. It's a bad combination. Good luck. | |
| Amp's that are better sounding than a nad 3020 I think the more significant question would revolve around the age and condition of the parts in ANY 40-50 year old audio amp.
