Feel free to talk me off the ledge
I am sorry to inform you, “you are doomed”. Best to never listen to music again and if you must...only listen on a Panasonic boom box.  
Large room with low budget for speakers
If I had that kind of money I would look at what others have mentioned, Volti Audio. You would be the kind of customer to work out a deal for the Vittora and that’s like heaven. Klipsch are nice but I would go for the Vittora and bass module. Winn... 
Cornwall IV – tube (amp) choice
I like what Willsenton and Line Magnetic have to offer, I have the Line Magnetic 216i . It’s a great little integrated amp. I bought mine from a dealer of LM Audio and he has given me really good service for the Chinese brand. LM Audio backs their...

How do you make a final decision on a DAC
Robshaw, just as a side note. I have the Tektons now and breaking them in. Running an original Bifrost Uber. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52050028169_4b31045d4d_m.jpg  
Magico S3 mkII
rman6 yeah that's the guy. I like his opinions. He stated he luvs the build quality and sound of Magico but their customer service leaves him speechless!! haha  
Magico S3 mkII
A guy who posts here on AG stated in a youtube review of top tier speakers that Magico's $85K speaker (once you have purchased a pair) does not come with grills, will charge you $1,300.00 for a tweeter replacement and once you have shipped a speak... 
How do you make a final decision on a DAC
robshaw First I am looking forward to the DIs. It will be hard to be objective with the speakers with all the hype that has been generated. Also I would agree with others here, you’ve got a great DAC. I mean you could try an r2r ladder DAC like t... 
Where/how to start?
If you get a Bluesound Node/ Vault streaming device, I strongly recommend  running a hard wire Cat cable to your router/modem. Using the Bluesound wireless has often caused many frustrations for people. Bluesound is a great solution but works best... 
How do you make a final decision on a DAC
I take possession of Tekton DI SE speakers this week. I get the long wait. It seems there are polarizing opinions on this brand but since you like R&R it might be a very good match for you. I have three DACs. I have an older Benchmark DAC1 USB... 
Would the new Pro-Ject X8 be a good choice for a first turntable?
Good advice!  
How do you judge audio components and speakers?
I have an audio buddy who is really into measurements. He claims if it measures well it will sound good. He has gone through as many components as I have and is still chasing that perfect sound. I don’t think he likes the equipment he has picked o... 
12x7 tubes
When I post information, it is about my experience with a product. I don't make blanket statements about what is good or bad. From the tubes I purchased and money I spent I found GE, Phillips and Sylvania NOS Jan tubes to sound very good. Not sure... 
12x7 tubes
Stellar Quality Space and military applications required electronics that could operate reliably in extreme environments of high altitude, high acceleration/vibration and even space, where high levels of radiation are present. Incidentally, one o... 
What does a subwoofer solve?
When I listened to my system without a subwoofer I was pleased and could clearly hear stereo separation. But I had heard other systems whereby I heard much deeper frequencies in the music. In those systems I could not always place the lower notes/...
