Fundamentalist Fervor
There are people who post in these audio forums and others who think they are the only ones who can properly evaluate audio equipment. They think they are smarter than everyone else because of scientific tests, experience or just arrogance. Many j... 
Schiit not shipping
The guys at Schiit should take heed. The audio business is too competitive and too small with few customers. They are letting their own reputation get tarnished..... 
The Magnificent Magnepan 30.7 speakers....wait, I don’t like planars!
Mr. Diller is a one-of-a-kind hard working businessman who has progressivly and slowly made his speakers better over many years. You have had a great opportunity to meet him (and wife) since they represent what is good in America, but maybe vanish... 
Looks like Tidal is doomed!
Yes I have been posting about Tidal. l like Tidal, don’t like what Jay-Z has done to it. One question persists, to which no one has an answer, is there ANY other streaming service that provides MQA content??? 
Suggestions for streamer in bedroom system
+1 lostbears. I don’t know how the Bluesound Vault handles files already copied onto a hard drive. Maybe it transfers them, retagging, making them readable for Bluesound OS. I know I had some difficulty with the Node 2 accessing files on a NAS bec... 
Schiit not shipping
Someone told me when I had problems with a very small but popular audio company that poor service often came with “boutique audio companies”. I hadreally poor communication with the owner, excuses, an arrogant reply, terrible customer service and ... 
RIP Dave Wilson
roberjerman“Thank you David Wilson for making your speakers so expensive that only the 1% can afford them!””My apologies for my remarks....”WOW I guess I’ve come upin a different era. There is really no way to apologize for that remark.RIP Dave Wi... 
Tidal and MQA..two questions.
Yes I think Sprint may do that. But for those who do listen to MQA content and the investment the recording companies and Bob Stuart has placed into MQA where will one be able to listen to MQA if Tidal folds? I would think someone will buy it??? 
Converting cd's to high resolution audio
I have ripped my cd’s to a HDD. I do not think any more resolution has been gained by this, but since the HDD is in another room, it seems the background is quieter and the sound better. No spinning disc or other sounds to hear.Is it in my head? d... 
Looks like Tidal is doomed!
I hope Tidal stays afloat and becomes profitable. I like MQA titles. Perhaps Bob Stuart of Meridian can throw them a loan. He makes alot on money from MQA licensing and I would think he stands to lose if Tidal folds... 
Musical Fidelity M6-500i vs Kw - 500
BTW, Pro-Ject has purchased Musical Fidelity. I think it happened in May, 2018. Also I had heard the Musical Fidelity M6-500i at a dealers place driving Vandersteen 2CE speakers. Tremendous amp, finess and power. 
Vandersteen Quatro CT or Wilson Sabrina
BTW, not that it matters but I have Magnepan MMGs in one audio system and Vandersteen 2ce Sig II speakers in my other system. I am a fan of Vandersteen but one has to choose speakers for themselves.I know the Quatro CT speakers have a tremendous f... 
Vandersteen Quatro CT or Wilson Sabrina
+1 stereo5. But maybe you should listen to a few others. When spending that kind of cash, many choices out there. 
Vinyl VS Digital
A friend of mine, analog fan, states you must do VTF on the fly by ear to eliminate distortion. He claims VTA and VTF are very important. 
Vandersteen 2CE Signature Speakers
I agree with ctsooner. Overall, I think a well designed speaker should do justice to all music played through it. If a certain speaker plays jazz well, or another plays rock well.. it might mean the coloration of the speaker or design matches well...
