| Ugly vs Gogeous speakers A great quote about seeing- “We see what is behind our eyes, not what is in front of them”. Us humans make up, in our minds, what is beautiful. This process is cultural, part of your own personal upbringing, and what your aesthetics, bias, attitud... | |
| How Is MQA Fareing? Rodman99999- Good question about the inroads. I have noticed that on Tidal’s MQA masters there are more and more albums added every day. I have been listening through the budget Bluesound Node 2 and have noticed some albums sound truly fantastic, ... | |
| Integrated or Receiver? I have a friend who bought a RR 2160 receiver by Outlaw. He still has it and states it has been the best audio purchase he has made. Plenty of power, phono section and usb for Itunes or whatever HDD. I do not know if you can connect two sets of sp... | |
| Integrated or Receiver? I would go integrated. I think you have a tough decision. Many here will go window shopping for you to spend your money. It is difficult to fish out good suggestions from the hype or advertising on a piece of gear or even sugggestions. If I am loo... | |

I understand you only want suggestions for BestBuy and Amazon. I also understand why so many have wanted to suggest you... | |
| Newbie needs Streamer Advise “You would likely be happy with either or for 2k you can get both!”uberwaltz- A brilliant solution. If the OP does not like how both units fit into his hi-fi needs, he can sell the one he does not want. Both of these units the Oppo and Bluesound a... | |
| Newbie needs Streamer Advise buellrider97- I don't think you have a modest system, actually it looks like you have invested a fair amount of $$. I am sure it sounds great. About your question though, digital audio is a vast territory that is changing very, very quickly. More ... | |
| Most overrated bands Just saw Justin Timberlake playing the SB halftime show. I hope that no one is going to tell me that he should be in front of the bands in the OP list? | |
| Bookshelf speakers that sound good on a SHELF or SIDEBOARD The Wilson Audio Duette was designed for bookshelf and stand. These are the BEST sounding bookshelf speakers I have heard period. But they are very pricey. | |
| Picking a Tube integrated amp One of the best (and worst) addictive habits one can acquire is the new old stock NOS tube search. I like old Sylvania military grade tubes and old RCAs. But there are so many with Telefunken and Mullard as favorites with many tube fans. Have fun! | |
| Picking a Tube integrated amp gillatgh- Let us all know how you like the Rogue. Tubes are addictive IMO. Keithtexas- Good question. From my experience good deals can come from used gear, but good quality customer service is from a reputable dealer. In my case, my dealer assure... | |
| Fix for Bluesound Node 2 and Powernode 2 wireless connection and drop-out problems... kalaliI have not noticed a difference in SQ between my wireless or wired Bluesound Node 2 as of yet. I have had many hours listening to the Node 2 in a wireless situation, not nearly that many in a wired. I could potentially see any audio system r... | |
| Fix for Bluesound Node 2 and Powernode 2 wireless connection and drop-out problems... gdnrbob,I did notice in my setup that 5ghz was a better connection than 2.5ghz. It seems to go either way for me, but this is good info for all those who are having connection issues with the BS products.BTW there was some initial reindexing of fi... | |
| why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable Skylinedo. I can appreciate your first post, but I have to tell you this. I could never spend $10k on a power cable. Even if I had the cash, I could not do it. | |
| Vincent SV-500 I did dive in! I bought a Line Magnetic Audio 216 integrated amp which I truly like a lot. I might trade up my older Marantz receiver in the bedrooom for this Vincent. It is 50wpc, perfect price and power output for my bookshelf speakers. |
