Planar Speakers and Diffusors
Check out AWOL short throw laser projector and mobile screen that hides into a 4'''x5"x115" box on floor. It gets out of the way completely for serious audio listening, and rises up between speakers for AV entertainment. I use Apogee Divas with JL...

I had a choice of NVDA vs Roku Ultra. I chose Roku for ease of adding the apps I desired. It is easy to use, and has YouTube, Netflix and others built in. I highly recommend it, but research which would work best for you. Very reliable. Even Chrom...

Richard Strauss Recordings
Strauss' Four Last Songs are very near the top of "My Last Evening" listening selections - my elite selections that I'd want to hear the last night before I would pass from this world. It's like a R2D4 list, but more like beautifully composed, per...

Your audiophile chair
