For a few dollars more
kingbarbuda  - you’ve got your gun wrong, it’s a Smith and Wesson Model 29 .44 Magnum with a 6 inch barrel.  At the time the most powerful handgun in the world, not any more, not by a long shot (pun intended!). 
Why would anyone want class AB amp when class A always sounds better ?
Oh puhleeeze, everyone knows that Qobuz streaming in HR through a  Hybrid-Digital Purifi Eigentakt amp sounds better than a record player through A or AB.  C'mon out of that dark ages cave you analoggers are in... 
Speaker Suggestions/Opinions
I have Monitor Audio Gold 100 bookshelf speakers and absolutely love them, beautiful airy highs from the ribbon tweeters, great midrange and bass so deep and tight I removed my subwoofer from the system.  Keep  in mind that mine is in a smallish b... 
Had an epiphany, what would happen when all of you die?
Wow some deep atheist beliefs MC, not buying it. 
Some interesting stats from Discogs
Very interesting that many are still utilizing vinyl and/or CD's.  I'm sure most know it doesn't compare to streaming use in sheer numbers and potential sound quality, but still give credit where it's due.  Along with it I'm sure there's strong sa... 
If you had access to a time machine, what concerts would you go back to see?
World Series of Rock at Cleveland Municipal Stadium featuring Journey, Foreigner, Electric Light Orchestra and one other band that I can't remember.  Amazing afternoon and night! 
CD or Streaming... am I missing out?
It must depend on your setup, I have a NAD M33 and stream Qobuz HR and it blows away my CD player so much so that I removed it. Admittedly the CD player was a Yamaha mid-level at best and the M33 is not. Even if they were simply equal (they were n... 
Recommendations for modern integrated with tone & balance controls other than Mcintosh
Try the new NAD M33 (if you can find it), it’s got a revolutionary 200 wpc integrated amp by Purifi, and includes streaming, Bluetooth AptX HD, Dirac Live room correction, as well as other features. The amp’s distortion is so low as to be almost i... 
Disappointment with Pass Labs - I'm looking for something else
Just get the NAD M33 Integrated, streaming 200 wpc amp with Dirac Live room correction as well as tone controls and balance control.  Simplicity in a revolutionary, distortion free amp. 
Suggest one obsure album we all should hear
Michael Stanley Band - Stagepass 
Bookshelf speakers for small room
I have the NAD M33 along with Monitor Audio Gold 100 bookshelf speakers.  Love, Love, Love this setup!  I too, have it in a smallish bedroom, you can see my setup in my gallery.  My room is treated, too. 
Are your current amps and other gear the best you've ever had?
Yes, by far the best I’ve ever had, NAD M33 Integrated amp/streamer into Monitor Audio Gold 100 bookshelf speakers into my treated, smallish bedroom.  The only thing that might get better would be speaker cables and power cable, but very satisfied... 
Looking for a ‘’No braine’r Integrated amplifier under 7500 or so
No brainer here for an all in one, SOTA solid state amplification, streaming integrated 200 watt (into both 4 and 8 ohms) amp with Dirac Live room correction is the NAD M33. I have one and couldn’t be happier. Last time I looked they were tough to... 
“Black background” — What really contributes to this phenomenon?
practikl wrote:  “And after getting a black background you just found out that your new noise floor is your tinnitus...”I literally laughed out loud as this has been my experience!  I frequently work in an environment that has multiple (40ish) vid... 
Vinyl on NAD M10 lower volume
This must be a record, no condescending, rude responses from the usual suspects!  Yet.
