ls FM radio even listenable any more?
WMMS 100.7 BUZZARD RADIO, best rock FM station in the US of A, in Cleveland, Ohio, home of Rock & Roll! 
Who puts their speakers right up against the back wall and why?
In my small bedroom setup I have no choice but to have them against the wall, but I also don't have speakers that have rear ports, either. 
Accuphase E-470
If you’re looking at $5k, I would check out the new NAD M33 integrated, it has a (supposedly) revolutionary Purifi Class D SS 200 wpc amp, Dirac Live room correction, high quality DAC, and the BlueOS for streaming.  According to a recent inquiry a... 
Signal chain DAC question
LG V series have the best sound quality, not a Samsung. 
Can anyone recommend a good streamer/DAC?
Ok, here’s what I would do in your shoes. I would sell the Rogue and then with some of the proceeds up your spending level to $5K and buy the new NAD M33 which has what has been described as a “revolutionary” new Class D 200 wpc “Purifi” amplifier... 
Interconnect cable recommendations for Node 2i and DAC
You might want to think about Qobuz instead of Tidal, better SQ and no worries about MQA decoding, also same price now, too. 
NAD M33
Dave and Troy I’m looking forward to hearing what you think, I will likely buy one when they become available, let me know.. 
How important is the source used with a DAC to obtain optimal quality from Tidal ?
I don’t know the answer, but I will say that I have both Tidal MQA and the highest quality Qobuz through a NAD M-10 and prefer the SQ of Qobuz. I had a Blusound Node 2i and liked it but clearly there are much better DACs out there than what’s in t... 
I sold a CAL Aria Tube CD player and buyer claims a burning smell
I’ve sold and bought stuff on eBay for years, not a ton volume wise, but including some high value electronics, a car, and a few motorcycles.  In the description in all caps I put, “SOLD AS IS, NO RETURNS,” though sometimes I’ll offer a DOA warran... 
NAD M33
i have the M-10 now and like it a lot, pretty excited about maybe a big upgrade.... 
Anthem STR or Naim Uniti Nova for Paradigm Persona 3F?
I’ve had the NAD M10 since shortly after it came out, currently used with a brand new pair of Wharfdale EVO 4.2 3-way standmounts. The speakers are not nearly broken in, maybe 10 hours or so, so not really fair to judge them with the M-10 but I wi... 
is this the greatest live band of all time?
So many great bands, hard to pick best the concert, but undoubtedly the best (non) entrance was Pink Floyd. Saw them at the Cleveland Municipal Stadium, late 70’s I think. Had four banks of speakers, the main stage and the three other points. The ... 
Really need some help finding a full range speaker
Chorus, the OP said that he WAS concerned about not being able to hear the speakers first.  Very hard to do that depending on where you live, especially buying used. 
Lumin or Aurender
I have the NAD M10 and love it.  I have zero connectivity issues using Wi-Fi, though I decided to do the wired route because sound quality seemed a bit better, could be just my imagination though!.  I’m using Zu Omen Dirty Weekenders for speakers ... 
Cool it!
+1 ericschI use the same thing and it works great.  Comparatively speaking, pretty inexpensive, too.
