| Two amps into one pair of speakers Just because an amp is turned off, doesn’t mean it’s not still putting out some form of current, even if it’s only a few seconds or a few minutes. I’m not saying it’s definitely an accident waiting to happen, but why take a chance?? | |
| Vinyl goes green! @yogiboy Thanks for sharing. I wish them all the best, but as we all know, they have a long way to go before that have a shelf stable product that will sound as good as vinyl and last as long as vinyl. | |
| Anyone else feel like it’s the Wild Wild West? Just started streaming a couple of months ago. Bought a New Node and it wasn’t right and returned it. Got a second one and it works well.

| What's going on with the used audio gear market? +1 tablejockey I’ve left three items on the table in the last couple of months because the sellers were asking almost new prices for 2-3 year old DAC’s or Streamers and were unwilling to come down even a few percent. Oh well, their loss. | |

| What are songs where people or instruments sound closer to you? @mwinkc I just stuck my toe into streaming 6-8 weeks ago thinking I have 2500+ CD’s and and if I listen to 4-5 a day, I won’t repeat a disk for years, blah blah blah and now after just a few weeks I’m listening 80% streaming and am already think... | |
