@allenf1963  Do you live anywhere near a military base?  Off base, there is always a seamstress near by to change a patch or fix a tear. Back in the day, my mom would take old cotton sheets and make what ever I needed.   All the best.

Just watched a video of the Gonzalo Rubalcaba Trio from 1991 and it was great!  
Sonus Faber Question
I have been trying to hear the Sonus Farber Amati for months now and am getting very frustrated.  No one in my state has a demo pair to listen to and I’ve tried several times to schedule a demo of the Lilium’s ( Because they were close) and severa... 
Help needed - Only one channel playing!
Glad to hear that all’s well! But it sounds like something is loose. Let us know if it happens again.  
So, a reviewer just said something I need to talk about.

All Hail the meek --yet mighty – NODE 2i
I have a N130, with a Teddy Pardo LPS in my second system.  While I don’t listen to it as often, it still sounds great after 3+ years.  
Denafrips Pontus *15th* ?
Has anyone figured out the differences between the 12 and the 15?  
Dirty little secret of Pedigreed, decades old Speaker line - no one will address
@ozzy62  I second this. All in favor raise your right hand.  No Jim,  your other right hand!😁 one last chance to answer the question lest you be labeled a lame internet troll.  
Aurender Conductor V4 and Qobuz phone app don't match
Sorry to say I have had issues with the Conductor app as well. Things missing or when listening to an artist, the app goes back to asking about genres I might be wanting to listen to instead of staying with the artist I was just listening to. Ver... 
Dirty little secret of Pedigreed, decades old Speaker line - no one will address
So I gather you have never listened to the speakers you are ranting about and as for improving drivers, just take a look at KEF. Their UniQ driver has been updated more than a dozen times and each time they also updated the crossovers as well.  Th... 
Push-pull Tube Amps and autoformers
If you add a crossover, you can roll off the bass on your Maggie’s at around 60hz and add a subwoofer that rolls in at around 50hz, you’ll have more than enough power to make those Maggie’s sing and I mean sing loud! All the best.
