There's a lot more bass in a 6.5" driver than most of you think
I think I read somewhere (KEF I believe) that the natural resonant frequency of a 15” woofer is lower so therefore it generates lower frequency bass with more ease? Is there truth to the notion that a smaller bass driver (6.5” - 10” etc.) will be ... 
New Parasound Halo JC1+ monoblocks just released!!!
17k, for non-bespoke amps made offshore? Not that Taiwanese hi-fi is not good, but that price point will dis-qualify most of the buyers who would be chasing the JC-1 in my opinion. Wasn’t the original advantage around Parasound to offer great bang... 
Does Digital Try Too Hard?
Geoff Kait said “Digital can’t get out of its own way. It might be difficult to set up an experiment but if it can be done a direct comparison of a very good vinyl system to a very good CD system should reveal a few things about digital. To whit, ...

Sell the Accuphase only if it sounds like Sch... oh never mind 😬 
Mmmm Crow tastes good...
Hi gochurchgo,In times past I have lived in an apartment for many years. With careful tweaking, I managed to get excellent sound that would put me well in the music zone for hours with thorough enjoyment. The living room was pretty big at 24’ x 15... 
$27,500 for whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat???
Funnily enough i sometimes get the impression that quite a few here think a sum such as this would be chump change. Not that my opinion is relevant but in my tiny mind i would consider that anyone who would spend over 27k on a paint job for their ... 
Is the Modwright for an Oppo udp205 worth it?
Quote ‘Your right. It is a stupid question. But f u for your nice response.’I have to agree. And I don’t think you asked a stupid question. These mods are expensive and it is natural to be hesitant about a significant investment.  
Moving up from an Oppo 205
The 205 is a killer player. For 1080p and 4k video discs it is tops. The 205 is imo a good CD player, but it is a SUPERB standalone transport because it gets the PRaT right. I’ve put it up against several players as transport and it was a better t... 
SACD or not

The Truth About Power Cords and there "Real" Price to Performance

The 5 stages of making a bad audio purchase

Klipsch speaker choices
The RP600M are cracking standmounts for the money. Superb value. Really great for parties too, even better if paired with a decent sub. John Darko just did a review on the Forte III. He bought a pair and loves ‘em. Not the last word in refinement ... 
Recommend speakers for a large living room
A couple of negative wisecrack responses that started the answers. That attitude is not helpful imo.I would suggest auditioning Magicos. The S7 perhaps. I can vouch for the S3 sounding absolutely amazing and being able to fill a very large room wi... 
A good taste of DSD--what is your experience?
I’ve not streamed DSD yet, but I have a number of SACDs. To my ears the SACD DSD disc in comparison to the same redbook recording sounds better and clearly higher resolution. The sound is more present/ real sounding, less compressed, bigger, more ...
