Musical Fidelity M6SCD vs Technics SL-G700M2
@tony1954, you're right. I'm done laptoppin' and am going to get an Aurender N150. Thanks for the advice. Took me a minute to face the Truth, man.  
Freight Movers?
Estes is delivering my new Volti Luceras tomorrow. From TN to CA. They have a good tracking system, and I've been texted, and even called to set a meetup delivery time. I'll report back tomorrow.   
Musical Fidelity M6SCD vs Technics SL-G700M2
@052rc thanks for your insight and explanation. I'm just a hi-fi enthusiast, so I haven't dug deep, I know I should learn more.  The MF seems like a good choice in that price range. In my earlier years, I had Sansui (2000A), then Marantz (2245) ... 
Schiit Lokius 6 band equalizer - in use observations
Another Lokius fan here. I first tried in in my head-fi system (black), and like it so much, that I got another one (silver) for my hi-fi system. I don't know why I didn't do this before...it really is useful and dead quiet.   
Yamaha CD-S2100 CD/SACD Player
Well, I had the S2100 checked out at Tap Electronics, Buena Park, CA. It was given a deep dive by Sal, and it checks out fine. What a relief. So the whole drop-out streaming issue has apparently been caused by the Steinberg driver. They recently ...

Yamaha CD-S2100 CD/SACD Player
I have a CD-S2100, it is having problems locking to the DAC source. I get dropouts constantly. At first, I thought is was my wifi, but have determined it is my beloved Yamaha unit.  Anyone else experience this? I am going to contact Yamaha Suppor... 
Klipsch/Ojas
What a cool collaboration between these two companies! I wish I could hear them. Guttenberg did a review on his YouTube channel. They look like nothing else, that is certain. Nice that they are using baltic birch instead of MDF for a change. Too ...

Jethro Tull “Thick as a Brick” CD revisited
Yeah Ian A seemed like a control freak. Shame on him. I recall watching a video of the band, where Barre was taking a solo, yet the camera focused close up on IA on his damn flute, instead of Martin. I just assumed he instructed the camerman to do... 
Schiit Lokius anyone?
I added a silver Lokius in my main system (higher end Yamaha/Klipsch) last year and was and still am mightily impressed. I now wonder why I waited so long? It was the missing ingredient that I didn't know was missing until I installed it. So recen...
