MoFi controversy
I think the only people who are upset are the ones that have been: 1. Screaming (loudly) that analog is the only way to go and that digital sucks. 2. Extolling the virtues of MoFi’s products and using it as a basis to support point #1. I’m a di...

$125 for a vinyl pressing of a SACD you can buy for under $30. Ouch.    
Do Recording Studios Use Silver Cables
I can't say for sure, but I imagine it has to do with the quality of the studio. I know that Pink Floyd, when they were recording Dark Side of the Moon, went through every single cable they could get their hands on during the recording/mixing/mas...

Helping friends/relatives with system purchases, your experience.
Most of my friends/relatives love to come over and listen to my system. However, most of them don’t realize that there is some commitment involved (room setup, WAF, space required, acoustic treatments involved, etc....). And that all rooms sound ...

Do you consider cables to be a "component" of your system?
@1971gto455ho , why are you still here posting in this thread? You're really not adding anything useful. Door's over there......kindly use it.  Thanks.  
Do you consider cables to be a "component" of your system?
@1971gto455ho , I can appreciate that you don’t think that AC cords (or any cables) can make a difference in a system and are just shiny audio jewelry. I am a big fan of older Yamaha amplifiers myself. The models you listed are PA amps from the... 
Homage to those who are pleased with your audio rig
I'm enjoying the system tonight. :)   Sounds pretty good.  She's hitting.

Up to $4000US tower speakers for Jazz and Classical Music
I also listen to a lot of classical (and jazz). I would encourage you to check out open baffle speakers. Spatial Audio speakers are highly regarded, as @81m800m800m suggested. I’m not familiar with all their models, but the ones I have heard ar...
