Did not give it enough time on the first go-around?
If you buy new, all components. Used you need to be sure.  
Has gear or a recording ever made your ears hot?
I get the Hot Ear sensation every time I hear something that bests my system and costs less than I paid.  Sometimes this syndrome is referred to as "Red Ass".      
Did not give it enough time on the first go-around?
Hence the "trial period".  
This is only a test
If this had been an actual emergency..... Who knows the rest???  
Playing CDs sounds better than Qobuz — dammit
Not long ago someone reported his ratings as follows: 11=R2R 10= LP  9.0= Downloaded files 8.5= CD rebook 7.0=Streamed Hi-res. Streamed music is getting better every year. The insane advantages of streaming make it an  unavoidable destinat... 
Wilson Benesch-Great or just Okay?
Ara, did you like the Fritz above the ProAcs?  Well Fed Ex left me hanging with a no show on delivery. Maybe tomorrow!!  
Wilson Benesch-Great or just Okay?
ara, Fed Ex says delivery will be tomorrow am. Which model do/did you have? Thanks for the tip on the burn in. I have a burn-in CD to run and will  await the magic with as much patience  as I can muster.  
Problem Solvers Needed-Got my New XOs installed and am worried....
Update for all. After closer to 400 hours the sound went to better than what I had by a decent amount. Patience was all that was needed. Thanks for all the suggestions!!

Good heavens!! And I thought Tekty had the patent on the crayola franchise! Or did someone have fun with photoshop?  
Please recommend speakers
Some Online website is offering the normally $1200/pair Elac Unifi Ref  speakers for $899. Not TMR but that's as much help as I can be. I saw this promo in the last 7 days so you should find it.  
Do we really know what "Live" music sounds like?
Live music used to be the preferred method for street beggars.  Some were darn good too. Now you just need a #1 black felt tip marker and some folded cardboard and you can make more than the people at MacDonalds in less time.

Tsumi- Now that is a scary juxtaposition! I can not say the WB model you picture is my idea of a thing of beauty. If it only was available in Red!   Garey, That feedback is exactly what I hoped to read here. Thanks. Older ACT models sell f... 
Anyone move up from Innuos Zen Mini to Zenith ?
Our friend Mr. Darko said the Zenith was only a slight improvement over the ZEN 3 at double the cost. I went that route. One reason to move up from the Mini is that you use your own DAC. Take a look at the HiFi Rose Streamer just released this ... 
Integrated Amplifiers - Luxman vs Pass Labs
I own the Pass INT25 and use Tannoy 15" dual concentrics. Your speakers I have not heard but they sound very similar. I have an older Luxman Receiver in use in my office and I like that as well. I do not see the differences that others mention...
