What is the actual percentage of people exclusively listening to vinyl vs digital?
Unlike many of you, I do not assume that my personal experiences reflect the majority. I am 74 years old and was very disappointed the first time I heard the "state of the art" CD format and thus never embraced it. Years later when the bugs (jitte... 
Definitely lonely to be an audiophile
I was going to reply to the OP but since I'm an audiophile, I think I'll keep my thoughts to myself.

Stirring Up Trouble
Measurements are nearly meaningless to me, I trust my ears. Not to tell me what is right or wrong, but whether a perceived difference is an improvement or a detriment. But most importantly I trust my ears to tell me what I like and if I do, I don'... 
Help with some big ol' used DIY speakers
The top speakers look like modified Bose 901’s. If so, they are facing the wrong direction. I can’t believe someone gave those away. Well, actually, I can.

members and their systems
@glupson Thanks, I had no idea as I’ve never been in a Bentley. That was funny even though you had to explain it to me.
