| Whats playing on your system today? I'm listening to the new Tool now on Tidal through my headphone system. Musically it's great, but it seems to lack some of the "bite" of their earlier work. I guess we all grow up and mellow out a little. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? The Allman Brothers Band - Wipe the Windows, Check the Oil, Dollar Gas | |
| Turntable and pre-amp advice sought All of those turntables will play records and are affordable. If you're not picky about sound quality, throw a dart. I have a Music Hall 2.2 and it is a decent entry turntable. I'm listening to mine right now. Pair it up with something like th... | |
| Phono cartridge suggestions sought I purchased a Kiseki Blue for less than your budget from the seller below recently and am very happy with it. https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis9gb42-kiseki-blue-n-s-brand-new-cartridges Other cartridges I have to compare it to - Hana SL, Van... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? The topic of used prices is interesting. My local record store's prices have been creeping up. It used to be that most decent quality records were in the $4 - $6 range, unless they were rare, then maybe they would top out at $15. Now it's more ... | |

The integrateds are in smaller rooms and are very enjoyable to listen to, probably even "overkill", especially in my home office where I listen ... | |
| SACD Player--Do you use it and feel you'd replace it if it broke? I have a Marantz KI Pearl SACD player and maybe 30 SACDs. I listen to vinyl most of the time, but if I'm honest with myself, the Pearl is the best source I have and most of the SACD's sound gorgeous through it. I'm sure I'd fix it or replace it ... | |
| Is integrated the future for 2 channel audiophiles? Is my 16 year old Audio Research VSI55 the future? Cool. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Picked up a beautiful MFSL Steve Miller Band Fly Like An Eagle. | |
| How to stream with a pre-amp Bluesound Node 2i (or a used Node 2). | |
| Audio Research VT100 MK1 and LS15 HELP!!! It sounds like you're at a point where it needs to go in to a repair shop for a diagnosis. If there's that much difference in sound quality and you've tried all the obvious things, it's time to get it looked at. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Steely Dan - Can't Buy a Thrill | |
| Fedex issues Until drones or robots start dropping off packages, it comes down to individual workers. My normal USPS driver drops both packages and all my mail together on my doorstep, usually pushing it off to the side so it's not visible from the street. (... | |
| The Music Room is Hiring - Audio Repair Tech Wanted I don't see any problem with it. I've never seen The Music Room trying to use the forums to promote sales (unlike some other very annoying vendors) and there are a lot of pretty technical people on these forums. This might be someone's dream gig. |
