My new VTV Audio Class D amp arrived today
@jerryg123 That Audio Hungary amp sounds and looks great.  I look forward to your impressions of the others in comparison.  
Help Logging in to Qobuz with Teac NT 505
I have a Lumin and an NT-505 so one app controls both. I just checked and Qobuz still is logged in and works fine. I only use the Lumin app, not the Teac one. Roon also works fine.  
Interesting observations
HDMI cables are really finnicky. Now try one like this to see if it sounds different:  https://www.amazon.com/Stouchi-Certified-Compatible-Playstation-Samsung/dp/B091CK3PSC    
"warm" solid state integrated amplifier
The Krell K-300i mentioned above a few times is great. Get it with the DAC card and you have a fantastic all-in-one, including HDMI eARC. I've had that and the Ayre AX-5 Twenty at the same time in my system and could live with either. The Ayre was...

@jond Was that next to the TAD/T+A room by House of Stereo? Joe from HoS had a lot of VPI stuff in his room too.

Capital Audiofest, save thyself!
This is a good lesson in why taking anyone’s advice is a bad idea. Listen with your own ears. I thought the Audio Note room was one of the worst at the show. Lifeless, flat and unengaging while the Amped room with the opposite and one of my favori...

I was there yesterday personally I fled the Dr Vinyl room almost immediately due to the crushingly loud volume!I was in there by myself most times so I could tell them to turn it down.  I hate when rooms turned the music up so loud you can't even ...

It bring tear of satisfaction to my eye that we have technology to link festival to my home. Did you lay ear on horn speaker by Pennsylvania company fleetwood? They have Oswald monitor there that place too? I think might buy this for my car polish...

See or hear anything worthwhile new or different there in the integrated amp department for someone looking downsize? All in 1 streaming +phono?I didn't see anything specific but from the amount of preamps with streaming and DACs I saw I would ima... 
AGD Audion GaN Class D In The House
@klh007 For some reason $4900 sticks in my head but there's a price difference for the chrome one vs brushed so the $4900 might be for brushed.  I was in that room quite a few times yesterday and today.
