How to Open the Sonus Faber Olympica IIIs (Please Help)
Oh, and also check the small plates between the speaker cable connector plugs and make sure they are both secure. All the best.

OP, Unscrew the 4 screws holding the the speaker cable connecting plate and pull it out. That’s the best place to start. All the best.  
Where Do I Go from Here?
I’m planning a drive to Colorado to check out the PS Audio speakers. I’d like to get the FR30’s, but I might have to get the 20’s, because my room isn’t all that big. I’ll let you know what I end up with and why.  
Review on Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC
Thanks Terry, I’ll be interested in reading your review. I have an R2R DAC (the Pontus ll ) and I really like the ladder DAC sound.

What album do you suggest I start with?  
Heavy difficult to move speakers- how do you deal?
I have my speakers on Gaia one’s.  They are on a 20”x22” piece of granite.  Under the granite, I have four furniture sliders. With a bit of umph, I can do any adjustments I need to. All the best.  
Which HDMI cable for I2S?
@sis883 DH Labs Silver is great! You won’t be disappointed.  
Have you noticed as your system improves?
@fthompson241 I have done the exact same thing and I listen at the same levels. I used to be 85-90 dB most of the time, now 75- 80 & maybe 85 on peaks  
Upgrading to a stand alone DAC
If you can find one used, the Denifrips Pontus ll should be in your price range. Over the last few years, I’ve upgraded everything in my system, except my Pontus ll.  Maybe some day, but I’m in no hurry. All the best.  
Happy Friday gents
