Heist/ crime songs
Not exactly rock, but The City Sleeps by MC 900 Ft Jesus romanticizes arson.  
Seeking DAC using the ESS ES9038PRO, but not a streamer
DACs I've heard with Sabre chips have sounded bright and more "digital" to me. Basing a $14,000 or more decision based on an Oppo or a chip is not something I'd recommend to anyone.   
Hey Sota - Whatever Happened To Customer Service?
Pick up the phone and call them. Donna is very responsive. I find it helpful to remember that I'm not the center of the universe in situations like this, especially around the holidays when people are taking time off to spend with their loved one... 
Klipsch La Scala replacement?
My first suggestion would be to try the Klipsch Forums.   I have owned many Klipsch speakers that have a smaller footprint.  I currently have a pair of Chorus I and think they may be the Goldilocks speaker for me, but only if I can tame their bri...

Freddie Hubbard - Breaking Point! Tone Poet. Fantastic.  
I'm looking to add sub-woofers to my system...

Jefferson Starship - Red Octopus.  I should pull this record out more often.  
I can't believe this.
"I think they may be able to do a priority service for you, however as I mentioned, most of our service centers that do provide priority service have a fee for it". That sounds like an option to me.  Nobody's coercing you to do anything.  
VPI turntables
I no longer have my VPI table, but +1 on the dual pivot mod.  Easy to do and no more wobbling.

Matching Klipsch Reference and Reference Premiere??
@aseaman007  I'm not sure what you read.  I didn't say anything about "aligning" speakers. His question was about if it would be a bad idea to mix different lines of speakers, not what the differences are.  They're all in the Klipsch family and ...
