| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? On paper, digital has it all in spades, but there’s no denying, that vinyl can have a truly inviting sound. | |
| Anyone prefer horizontal bi-amping their monos? I use mono blocks for the high end and a stereo amp for the low end in my basement setup. Sounds great to me.😁 | |

| Whats playing on your system today? @ozzy I am a huge Paul McCartney fan, but he has put out some whole albums that make you wonder. | |

| What am I missing? @jerryg123 I am enjoying the heck out of the cheap prices on CD's Last year went to a multi family garage sale. They had boxes and milk crates of CD’s. After I started looking through the third box, the guy comes up to me and asked me if I’d ... | |

There I heard the Snell A’s and fell in love! That was my start. Oh and I did end up buying a pair used a couple of yea... | |
| Amazon music vs Qobuz @larry5729 High Res and MQA are two separate things. You can play 24/192 without it. I know that for sure on Amazon and I’m pretty sure it’s the same with Tidal and Qobuz. | |
| Music for 2022- Is It Just Me Or?.. What do you listen to? I must admit that since I bought a streamer and a subscription, I have only bought a few CD’s. The day something comes out, it’s out there and usually in high res, which I can’t get on a CD. |
