| Nice MQA discussion I see MQA as a Jekyl/Hyde type of experience and codec. On one hand, it sounds fantastic and one can be exposed to the ever expanding library as the two or three major labels add record titles. On the other hand, I keep reading about the greedy ha... | |
| Sanity check on new system? I think I would like to hear complete systems. I would have a speaker brand in mind first, and dealers have good knowledge of synergy for that brand or model.To me, it’s very, very difficult to pick your system without hearing first. If great soun... | |
| MQA - What is your favorite content? Great thread!Try Ray Charles and Milt Jackson"Soul Brothers" & Crosby, Stills & Nash "CSN". You never heard them sound so good. But not every MQA offering sounds excellant, many do not.If you want your socks blown off, try Ray Charles, The... | |
| A battle between two turntable generations. Which one is the winner? A fellow audiophile told me I should not consider a TT unles it had on-the-fly vta adjustment. Is it true? | |
| Music collection in Flac. Great! PC player..too slow. Suggestions?? I would do this. Get a Bluesound Node 2. You can access all your music files with it at home without using your PC. Also, you will enter the world of streaming via Spotify, Pandora or whatever streaming service YOU like. If you pick a streaming se... | |
| Vandersteens, PSB or something else? I have the 2ce Sig II as well. I run a Parasound A21, but I bet the mono McIntosh amps make them sound even better. I don’t think they can sound nearly as good as the Quatro CT or 3.7s. The bass alone with both speakers will go lower and cleaner. | |
| Vandersteens, PSB or something else? I agree with many here. The Quatro Ct and the 3.7 are my two top personal favs. But the 3.7 will sound the best with high quality powerful amps. The CTs are just awesome and would not need all that extra power. If you can find a dealer to audition... | |
| Tidal subscription discounts Thanks to everyone, and you are welcome! | |
| Best monoblock amps for $2000 used What is the difference between two mono block amps and one dual-mono stereo amp? Many times you can get the dual-mono stereo amp or even an integrated dual mono stereo amp for a better price.http://www.musicalfidelity.com/products/m6series/m6500i ... | |
| Is using streaming services worthy of an audiophile? bcgator - That is a great comment. I could not agree more, well said. | |
| Cleveland, OH Good times at the Erie Club Audio get together, had lots of fun. Always room for more audiophiles up here in the Akron/Cleveland area????? | |
| Help for an Old School Audiophile Yes I agee with the suggestions here, good ones. To add to what has been mentioned if you get a Bluesound Node 2 and a Roon subscription you are well on your way to awesome sound for really budget prices. You will have all of your own files to cho... | |
| When Money Is No Object -- You Buy Bose? I had the 901’s back in the mid 80s. There were very innovative for the time, although the speakers I have today are much better indeed. While I agree with the idea “ Bose success was very much because of marketing success” in all fairness Omar Bo... | |
| Cleveland, OH Tgun5 - thanks for organizing the meeting, looking forward to it. | |
| How to start streaming You say you have “ a large collection of such files on my PC and external hard drives which I have converted to CD”. I guess I confused as to what that means?jond is correct, you need a device that can stream. There are dedicated streamers by many... |
