| What area or country do you live in ? Near Olympia, WA I was with some audio enthusiast friends last night and we were talking about some of the companies here in Washington - Modwright, Parks Audio, Carver, Shunyata, Blue Jeans Cable... I'm sure there are more I'm not thinking of. | |

| Looking for ic With the components you have and your budget, Blue Jeans Cables should be a good fit. | |
| VPI Classic vs Clear Audio Wood I had the Clearaudio Concept (not the Wood version) and it was very nice, but super sensitive to footfalls. I have wood floors and no way to wall mount it, so it had to go. No experience with VPI. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @6t5-gto Thanks for the heads up on the MOFI. I have spent more than that on a record before, but I'm not sure I can justify that, unless I bought it purely as a collector's item. | |

| What are you streaming tonight? @uberwaltz I think it's cool he's been able to pursue something completely different that he obviously loves and find a following. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? I have a couple of Blackmore's Night CD's. I wasn't familiar with it and it was not what I was expecting, lol. My girlfriend really likes them. | |
| Integrated amp question.....around $1000..could use some help! Add the Heed Elixir to your list. | |
| First DAC: Metrum-MHDT-Rega-or? I'm in a similar boat, thinking about adding a DAC to the Bluesound Node 2 in my bedroom. I can use the DAC in my Oppo 105D, but would like something that doesn't involve turning on the TV and having to change inputs on the Oppo (yes, I'm THAT la... | |
