| Purchase breaks well within 30 days Bummer, but not the seller's fault. You're lucky the manufacturer will honor the warranty. Many won't unless you're the original owner. Buy yourself something like a used Schiit Bifrost to tide you over until the repair is done and flip it when... | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Tom Petty - Wildflowers & All The Rest, Qobuz Hi-Res. It's still hard to listen to T.P. without getting a little misty. | |
| Combining 2 channel audio and home theatre If you get a high quality preamp and amp(s) or a good integrated that has home theater bypass that allows you to skip the Denon, then you have an opportunity to experience a dramatic difference in sound quality. Having said that, unless you get r... | |

| Can anyone recommend an FM Receiver that would play into a relatively high end system? @mahler123 I'm not saying there aren't some good streaming options, there are.

| Tweaks you got rid of because they were not effective (enough)? Vibrapods. They seem to make the sound worse, not better, and leave a nasty residue. | |
| Can anyone recommend an FM Receiver that would play into a relatively high end system? If you want good sound quality, provided you have good FM stations in your area, a dedicated high quality FM tuner (and a good antenna) can be an excellent source.

| Versatile, non-fatiguing speakers for a small room under $1500 used or new: advice needed! I got lucky with my P3ESR's. In one of my last in-person visits to Echo Audio in Portland I walked in and saw them in the demo room, asked how much (I think they were $1025?), and immediately said I'll take them. I was lucky they hadn't put them... | |
