| Your thoughts on selling I had a ton of Columbia LP sets of Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, Mozart and more, that were my mothers and thought they’d sell in a heartbeat. The vinyl was in great shape and the boxes were as well. Boy was I wrong. There were a couple hundred acetat... | |
| Upgrading @malbor Without knowing your equipment, we have no idea what to suggest and just because something is old , doesn’t make it bad or obsolete. | |
| Beyonce releases first album in six years RENAISSANCE What lyric is she removing before the official release? Seeing as it was released elsewhere in the world by someone, I guess it will be easy to get both versions. | |
| What say you binding posts or direct wire? @johnk I must be missing something, if you don’t have a binding post of some kind, how do you connect your speaker wires? You are not suggesting soldering your speaker wires inside your amp? | |
| What Is Most Important? Everything playing well together so I can listen to a jazz trio and fell like I’m in the room with them, minus the smoke😁 | |
| Looking for a preamp with XLR connections I know you said no tubes, but check out PS Audio’s BHK preamp. It’s a hybrid so it has some small tubes, but they will last ten thousand hours. Just a thought. JD | |
| ARC Q's Never mind. Sorry, they said 12 and most were for manuals. | |
| ARC Q's I just looked at Hifishark and there are some listed there, but I won’t swear they are still for sale. | |
| FREE - Magnepan LRS - to a good Home Wish I lived a bit closer. I’ve always wanted to try a pair of the LRS’s! Congratulations to the winner! JD | |
| Denafrips Pontus II vs Venus II I have the Pontus ll and it’s been great. I’ve thought about getting the Iris or the Venus ll and I’m leaning towards the DDC, I haven’t been in a huge hurry because the Pontus ll sounds really good in my system. All the best. | |
| When a budget speaker is preferred to a high end one... +1 that speaker designers have different ideas of what the perfect sound is. | |
| ARC Q's Wasn’t the LS-25 the last one to use 6922’s? | |
| My experience with the First Watt F7 @roxy54 Having never owned a First Watt or Pass Lab amp, owning one or at least hearing one has been on my list as well. Kind of sad that the F7 didn’t work for you. At 25 watts a side, it would have been my first choice as well. | |
| Songs that can be streamed at higher Res @djones51 It’s funny you mentioned Abbey Road, because I’m kinda a Beatles fanboy and already have the the 50th Anniversary set. Giles Martin did a great job on this remaster. The Beatles remastered their entire catalog in 2009-10 and it was mos... | |
| Songs that can be streamed at higher Res @ghdprentice @lalitk I have 3+ months free left and then Qobuz and or Tidal. Why so both of you say Qobuz? Why are they that much better than Tidal? |
