| New buy, no return policy I’ve had a good experience buying from local dealers. The only time they don’t allow returns is with used equipment or special deals. If you’re getting a great price you’re taking a chance for the savings. If you’re concerned I would buy from a... | |
| Considering switching to XLR cables, Another vote for Pine Tree Audio XLR cables. I’ve also had a good experience with Blue Jeans cable including XLRs. I have paid more for Audioquest but no significant sound difference. | |

| Pairing streamer I had a similar issue recently. Couldn’t find my Zen MK3 on my tablet or phone. I replaced by router pod that’s connected by Ethernet cable to the zen. That did the trick. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? The Moody Blues - career spanning playlist. Tuesday Afternoon. | |
| What might pair well with a combined Laiv Harmony uDDC and Laiv DAC? Another recommendation for an Innuos streamer. I have the Zen MK3 I got used from a great local dealer for $1800. It connects out using USB. It has a CD ripper and storage so you can run any CDs you have and stream from the same system. A big ... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti. 50 years later. | |
| ??? Listening Levels & Musical Styles ??? I find it depends on the type of music, the system and my mood. The Who in my listening room at night is played louder than Steely Dan in my office during the day. | |
| Does loudness play a part in your appreciation? That’s as loud as I try to listen now to save my old guy ears. I do like it loud like a lot of the concerts I’ve attended over the years. To me The Who doesn’t sound as good at quiet listening levels. Live at Leeds is played at 60-70 dBA now. ... | |

| Most recent concert Bummer that the sound wasn’t good at a theater that I assume has good acoustics. My old guy ears are more sensitive than ever. I bought a pair of Zound earplugs for my most recent concert because I find indoor concerts are so loud and my old plu... | |
| speaker upgrade from Magico A3 Great that you’re going to be working with a local dealer. At that price range they should deliver, setup and calibrate the speakers you choose to make it easier on you. Buying stereo equipment should be more enjoyable than car buying. Trust yo... | |
| Need advice from the gurus. Sounds like you know what you want you just aren’t hearing it in your system. I would start with your speakers and then go from there. One step and one piece of equipment at a time. Have you heard a pair of speakers that you like? Have you che... |
