| Help me spend $6000 If you can find a mint pair of Wilson Sophia in your price range they should hit the spot. Good synergy with the Pass electronics too and should work great with your integrated. | |
| Supra Cat 8 Ethernet cable Run the supra in for at least 100hrs. It’s a good cable, never sounded harsh or bright. I was using it for quiet some time until recently when I switched to Network Acoustics Eno streaming system which sounds more relaxed and refined. | |
| What do you consider the most when choosing a pair of speakers? Many factors to consider. Most important being the sound - has to be the sound signature I’m looking for. Room size, acoustic treatment, possible placement, synergy/compatibility with associated equipment and cables. Brand, resale value. Design ... | |
| Electrostatic speakers Use a brush attachment and make shure it’s clean. But first disconnect the speakers for 5-6hrs, preferably overnight | |

| DAC diminishing returns @mlsstl I stand corrected. Schiit return policy restocking fee is between 5-15% depending on product and for Yiggy it is 5%. So actually yea not too terrible in this case. | |
| DAC diminishing returns @dsfreeh my thoughts about your question… There are differences between DACs that’s obvious. One important aspect of “diminishing returns “ in my opinion is it is reached much sooner on a system that’s not up to the level to reveal the difference... | |
| DAC diminishing returns @charliee I get the reasons…was clarifying their return policy since the details were omitted and expressed my thoughts about it. | |
