| Streaming for beginner I have a CD player/streamer (all in one) which connects to my WiFi. I play Spotify through my iPhone and it sounds awesome. I tried Bluetooth in the past and didn't like the flat sound. It was a very easy setup and I'm not a very technical person ... | |
| Charging A Fee To Demo An Amplifier In A Brick & Mortar Store Never heard of that before----sounds like a scam to me. | |
| Let's be a little meta: What topics are most hotly debated? Bass? Hmmm, I thought sure it would be either McIntosh products or cables. | |
| Think fast: What would you take? I would try to get the irreplaceable/important items (family heirlooms, personal financial items for identity purposes, etc) rather than things that can be replaced by insurance. So sorry you're having to go through this. This year is definitely o... | |
| Are all Audiophiles masocists? I think we all do this with other parts of our lives: we have a good job, we think of better jobs. We have a nice car, we think of getting a better car. We have a nice house, we want a bigger house, and so on. I'm perfectly happy with my little sy... | |
| What other hobby... Photography | |
| ls FM radio even listenable any more? The only time I listen to the radio is in my car. I haven't had a tuner since the early 90s. | |
| Integrated brand choice -- Simaudio, Hegel or Mark Levinson? Agree with a few other on here regarding the Luxman. I bought my first Luxman integrated amp earlier this year and its by far the best amp I've ever owned. You should definitely consider a 507UXii. | |
| High Performance Audio - The End? My modest little system sounds really good to me and my friends. I listen to a wide range of music ranging from Kraftwerk to Led Zeppelin to Ella to house music. Current electronic music (like Yello, Brendon Moeller) sound so crisp and clear while... | |
| Outstanding service from MusicDirect in the USA and Avid Hifi in the UK, read on please! I agree---I've purchased from Music Direct and their customer service is excellent. I've bought equipment and vinyl. Highly recommended. | |
| Crutchfield's Speaker Compare At least they're trying. Things are tough for brick and mortars now not to mention small towns and then put COVID in the mix. Hey, whatever helps folks, go for it. | |
| Recommend speakers for Hegel H190 Look at Dynaudio---quite a few posts on here and elsewhere regarding their synergy with Hegel. I have the Special 40s and they are great speakers ($3000/pr). | |
| Cheap/expensive or expensive/cheap? I didn't mean to annoy anyone with this question. Seems like there's always one person who gets offended or annoyed with something on these forums. I realize the question is very broad and general but I didn't want to get into the minutiae of spec... | |
| Cheap/expensive or expensive/cheap? Excellent points on the comments here---I used standard stock cables on most of my equipment years ago and started using higher quality cables/cords over the past few years. I (as well as my non-audiophile friends) heard a noticeable difference on... | |
| All New Pure Audio ONE Integrated Amp Reviewed! Having to push the source button every time you turn it on and the back panel don't work for me. I'm surprised they weren't able to do something about that?? It's not very attractive either. I'll pass. |
