Need Recommendations for a pair of Speakers around $1,000
To the OP I think your attitude is wise, just get some opinions and look them over. I have always been able to form a better judgement about audio equipment and making decisions by letting other people offer guidance, information and opinions. I... 
What defines mid-fi versus high-end?
For those of you who equate higher prices with high fidelity have you ever seen the youtube channel where Danny Ritchie from GR Research compares some hi-fi, high cost speakers to more budget friendly and shows his viewers what they get for the mo... 
Comparison: 2 Sony ES CD players vs Primare d30.2
I have the Sony XA20ES and have always considered it a sleeper CD player. It’s worth noting that SONY and Philips developed the CD format and I think Sony have always made fine audio gear. BTW I am not doubting the 5400 is a great player, but the... 
What defines mid-fi versus high-end?
bobpyle and I are in complete agreement. Once the million dollar audio HI-FI system is completed... who listens to it? Is it not primarily that person who owns it? So is it not only the owner's opinion that matters... if its HI-FI?

An Objective Review of the Tekton Double Impact Speakers
People are free to buy what they like. It's freedom. Not sure what the problem is? The OP got what he liked..yes? And if it does not like what he has now, he can sell those speakers and buy something else which is what the majority of people here ... 
Large speaker recommendation
Audition audio gave good advice. What kind of sound do you prefer? The kind of money you have to spend can get you almost whatever you want. If it were me, I would audition the top 5 contenders once you have narrowed down your search for the sound... 
An Objective Review of the Tekton Double Impact Speakers
I bought a pair of Tekton Design Double Impact Special Edition. I have had them for 1 week so really not broken in at all. Overall I have been impressed with the sound given the cost. I can’t justify spending $10K -$30K or more for speakers... so ... 
You know you have audiophile system when...
I think of the attitude people have about High Fidelity along similar lines as the attitude some Americans have about the education of their kids. Some people think that they should have a say as to what their children will be taught. But those sa...

Thanks all for the recommendations.  
best amp for a Maggy 1.7i
To the OP and many others about the out of budget amps I had suggested JC1 and Musical Fidelity. My apologies for not staying within budget. If it were me, I would get a used amp that is dual mono and high current and use those until my budget wou...

Just got started on Qobuz. Can anyone recommend an album or song?
laltik "I hate to be the one to say if you can appreciate audible differences between Qobuz and Tidal on a Node 2. Qobuz sound is definitely better but you need a better streamer / DAC combo to appreciate Qobuz high resolution files." Duly noted... 
Just got started on Qobuz. Can anyone recommend an album or song?
Yeah that’s true for sure, I can listen to my favorite music and I will. It’s just that on Tidal I find some music sounds really good, but it was not something I knew about. I find the recommendations by the algorithm Tidal uses just doesn’t match...

Does Sony still make one? X5000 or X3000? 777ES? I always wanted on of those but Santa never got me one.
