Does anyone know if Bluesound Node 2i Streamer/Dac is being updated soon.
It will get old when new content comes out that they aren't able to support, kind of like how I used to use my Oppo for streaming and they didn't add options for Qobuz, Spotify, Radio Paradise, etc. and then stopped supporting streaming.  The Blue... 
Qobuz Special Offer
Any reason to have both Tidal and Qobuz? I have Tidal and do not want to mess up anything to switch to Qobuz. Having both is do able at $12.49 monthly but is there a good reason to do that. I have both as well as Pandora and Spotify.  For what ... 
Do any of these interest you at all? (If you had the money)(Which I don't)
What, no Klipsch RF-7s?I really like the Focal Grande Utopia BE, but definitely out of my price range, unless I hit the lotto. 
Tidal Music
I have Tidal and Qobuz.  I listen to Qobuz more, turning to Tidal when I can't find something on Qobuz or if I want to listen to one of Tidal's "My Mix" playlists (they are usually good).  I have one DAC with MQA and listen mostly with a DAC with ...

Cup - Spinning Creature, Qobuz.  I really liked this and it sent me off on a tangent - Cibo Matto - Viva! La Woman, Qobuz 
Klipsch RW-12D Subwoofer: Repair or Replace???
I started out with a couple of Klipsch subs, including the RW-12D.  I hate to say something is "junk", but in this case...  I never had any problems with mine, but in comparison to subs from SVS, HSU, Rythmik, and PSA, it really does sound like ju... 
So many great golden era DD tables out there, what do you recommend for $1000?
If you really had "all bases covered" you would not need three turntables. I currently have 6 turntables (5 in use). I’m clearly off base! Then again, I have 4 complete systems. I rarely use the turntables in two of them, but am glad they are the... 
Turntable
I would take a serious look/listen to the MOFI Ultradeck.  I've heard one at our local dealer.  I'm partial to Music Hall turntables.  Something like the 9.3 is in your price range.  Some others to consider are the Pro-Ject RPM 9 or Extension 9.  ...
