| CD Player vs. music streaming @jetter That is one reason why I've held back on spending more than I have on streaming. Not all that long ago I bought a Marantz NA6005 as my first streaming device. Sonically and functionally, it was a nice piece, but it doesn't support most... | |
| CD Player vs. music streaming I went to one of my favorite dealers yesterday (Gig Harbor Audio) and they just happened to have a Lumin T2 set up in their main demo system. It sounded fantastic. I'd probably go for the D2. I have some other priorities ahead of that, but a ne... | |
| How good can it get, really? - my stereo sounds amazing! If you're happy with what you have, that's awesome! If you want to take it to another level, add another sub (or 2 or 3). You'll get a lot more bang for your buck out of that than buying expensive cables. Not that they can't help, but whatever ... | |
| Two subs or not two subs... Get rid of the Klipsch. I owned a couple of their subs a few years ago and they were junk compared to anything you can get from HSU, SVS, PSA, Rythmik, etc. Maybe they've gotten better over the years, but I doubt it.You could use your VTF-15H wi... | |

| Advice for novice needed on turntable A little over your budget new, but you might be able to find a used or demo Clearaudio Innovation at your budget. That's a looker. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? "Electronica 101" playlist on Tidal. Got the headphones out this morning. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @6t5-gto I think Heartbeat City is a "must have" if you like the Cars even a little. They were at their creative peak and the production on that album is amazing. I have a few copies, and good copies seem to be relatively easy to find. The MFSL... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? The Cars - Heartbeat City Uber, I heard some Cars in the car and decided I needed to hear them on the turntable when I got home. That's how this selection was chosen. | |

| CD Player vs. music streaming My Bluesound Node 2 into my Auralic Vega sounds really good, but my turntables and CD player best it. I'd like to get a better sounding streamer, but everything I've looked at seems to be a downgrade from BlueOS in terms of usability and the vari... | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Uber, I am fortunate, especially since I live in a relatively small town (about 50,000 population) and one of the best record stores in the region is here. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Very cool uber! The only stuff I see in the dollar bins at my record store are really beat up or titles you've never heard of. Their prices are quite reasonable for used records though, the best I've seen in the area and typically about 70-80% o... | |
| Breakdown of Turntable Performance A $50 AT95E cartridge on my Music Hall MMF 7.1 sounded better than a $800 Clearaudio Virtuoso Wood on my Music Hall MMF 2.2 table. Better feet, a more solid plinth, a detached motor, a better tonearm, better wiring... those things all matter. Wh... |
