| Jazz for aficionados @stuartk the Hegel is a SS integrated and the PS Audio’s are tube input and SS output on all three pieces. I just plugged in the Hegel for the first time in months and it sounds terrible. I’m sure, that by tomorrow when all the caps are charge... | |

| Use of Denafrips Iris 12th DDC with computer @mesch For the price of the Iris, you can get a new Bluesound Node. As an all in one unit it is a good streamer with a good DAC and great software. I used one for years and the newer ones are even better. All the best. | |

| Worth repairing a Velodyne ULD-12 from the 90's? Probably not and besides, most all the new subs come with an app that makes setup a breeze. All the best. | |
