Merry Christmas One and All
Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!🎆   
2025 Audio System Wish List Time!
The Phiharmonic BMR monitors curved in satin walnut that should be ready in February.  A good way to warm up during what’s shaping up to be a cold long winter.  I have 2.5 way Arendal 1723 towers and Revel M126Be 2 way bookshelves. A 3 way monitor...

HOW DID YOU END UP WITH YOUR DREAM SYSTEM?
Couldn’t agree more that listening to music should bring you joy.  Nothing better than ending the day listening to music you love.  Having a system you love is living the dream.  As Hans always says, enjoy the music.  Merry Christmas, happy holida...

Retirement integrated amp for a “fiscal conservative”
You’ve received a lot of great suggestions and at 8K you are beyond my budget.  Good for you!  Just wanted to say welcome to the club and hope you enjoy your retirement!  Music is a great hobby to grow old with in my experience.    
How Many Times Do You Have To Listen To Understand A Piece Of Music?
If I’m critically listening, not hearing at a holiday party at someone house, once.  Some music grows on me like an earworm.  My kids music sometimes.  I’ve heard it so many times I know every word by heart but I wouldn’t put it on my playlist.    
Room setting: new amp or new speakers?
Agree with getting your room setup first.  It will have the most impact on what you hear coming out of your system.  I would then upgrade your source.  Moving from the Bluesound Node N130 to an Innuos Zen Mk3 streamer and a Holo Audio Cyan 2 DAC m...
