| Has Your Hobby Changed? Mine changed dramatically when I bought a streamer and subscribed to Qobuz. I use it more than the turntable and CD player and FM tuner combined. I've discovered so much great music and am always searching for the next great thing. Retirement d... | |

| Streamer/dac …. Organic/euphonic sound signature Eisa award winner Musical Fidelity for $2199 will be a little warmer and easy on the ears. | |

| Tim Bachman of BTO passed at 71 Being in a rock band never was good for you health. Touring and such. Think about all the guys who died around age70. Allman, Lou Reed, many others. | |
