| Best cable for record cleaner, ever I didn’t realize power cords made a difference with RCMs. Will have to look into upgrading. Thanks for the heads-up. | |
| Speaker Recommendation Help Please. I think, unfortunately, with your room layout the only way you’re going to get anywhere near great sound would be to listen to something in the near field to account for the vast openness to the left and glass wall to the immediate right of your s... | |
| Has the cost of HiFi gotten a bit too much? I think the upper end of the high end maybe even the “vanilla” version of the high end has gotten stupid expensive. But at the same time one can assemble a great system for not too much of a cost nowadays, as well. What’s really crazy is you can... | |
| Qobuz/Tidal Differences jjss49, I've seen lots of threads where people express their likes/dislikes for one services or the other and their reasons for it, but not any that come to mind where actual recordings are named so others who want to can also compare to see if t... | |
| Qobuz/Tidal Differences Can you point me in the direction of artists/tracks you used to compare where these differences were heard? Thanks, all. | |
| any thoughts? I wouldn't. I've got two Icons that's been sitting in the garage for years due to laser failure. | |
| Best streamer/DAC for up to $1500 I agree with fthompson251. I actually have the previous version of the Node 2i and added the Denafrips Aries II just last week using a coaxial cable. The sound quality is excellent. Good luck and have fun. | |
| Would appreciate a group consensus on Agon purchased amps Yes. You are making more of this than necessary. It would be different if the amps were initially shipped from the manufacturer with a special cable made specifically for those amps and they were essentially a packaged deal, meant to work best t... | |
| China built tube amps At least you now know which dealer to avoid. The man’s an opinionated fool. Lots of wonderful Chinese made high end products. Not so sure about the ones selling for a hundred bucks on the bay, though. Although, those may be good, as well. Goo... | |
| It’s all a matter of degree I'm in the camp that throws in a pair of Bose 901's when the sickness gets to be too much. | |
| It's Great Having So Many Choices (?) Less is more. I don’t like too many choices. My simple brain kind of gets stuck. Having said this, I do have way too many of certain things in my life, which does cause me some stress. | |
| What do $2500 speaker cables sound like? I think if someone went into it expecting to hear a big difference they’d be highly disappointed. If they approached it with hopes of hearing a slight difference, they might not be let down? I know I wouldn’t hear a $2300 improvement in sound. | |
| Returning damaged item to seller.... Does the price he charged mean he ate a large portion of the upfront shipping cost out to you, where he listed the shipping price as $40 thinking that’s all it would cost but was surprised at the FedEx for an additional $38.50 or damn near another... | |
| How Big of a Difference? Differences in cables, even those costing megabucks, is subtle at best even in the most resolving of systems in dedicated listening rooms IMO and IME. I’d suggest buying from a dealer that has a return policy with little to no restocking fees t... | |
| Why Are People So Concerned About How Others Spend Their Money? I so don’t care about those types of comments that they no longer even register in my brain when I read them. If I thought about it, I’d say it’s the insecure putting others down to make themselves feel better. |
