Favorite Album Cover (picture or art on the cover)
I have that Electric Ladyland cover too.  Jimi didn’t like it so it was replaced.  Linda McCarthy took a picture of him with a bunch of kids in a fountain in Central Park that he wanted them to use.  It was the cover for a later reissue long after... 
Whats playing on your system today?
Crosby, Stills and Nash - Crosby, Stills and Nash.  The album that started it all.    
SHIPPING speakers?
Thanks for sharing.  The issue is the cost of freight shipping in my experience.  I’ve had speakers delivered on a pallet but from a manufacturer that had a free return policy in case there were any issues.  I try and sell any gear locally includi...

I am checking out these DAC's for my system

How do you A/B amps in your system?
Douk Audio VU3 Pro.  Can switch between 2 amps and/or 2 sets of speakers plus you get colored meters.    
MissingCDs and records
Hope all goes well with your recovery.  There is something special about owning and playing physical music.  I find it’s what I grew up with and adapting to change can be hard but and I’m starting to enjoy the benefits of changing to streaming lik...
