| Jazz for aficionados @frogman You wouldn’t happen to know if there is a CD set of the Brecker brothers and Horace Silver bootleg? Maybe I looked in the wrong place, but I didn’t find it on Amazon or Qobuz. Thanks. | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Michael Brecker, Live in Helsinki 1995 | |
| Testing your system When I sit listening with my eyes closed and find myself smiling and/or tapping my toe, that’s the best test of my system. | |
| Jazz for aficionados So I just got 6 John Zorn CD’s from the library. I tried to listen to them. Really I did! I guess I just don’t like that kind of jazz. Oh well. | |

| Rel t9x or Rythmik F12G @ric2001 You can easily start with one T5 and see what you think. | |
| Not sure if I have enough oomph. @paultapar While your amp has plenty of power, a subwoofer woofer or two can make sure you rarely use more than a few watts. All the best. | |
| Streamer with decent app To me, the DAC makes the biggest difference and I’m using a Bluesound Node N100 with an LPS and a good USB cable going to my Denifrips Pontus ll. As time with the Node passes, I’m thinking of getting a better DAC, not a better streaming device. A... | |
