Comparison of latest DAC chips
Thanks very much for the suggestions.  Since I never owned a DAC can anyone explain R2R, multibit, or anything else that applies.  So far the D90, Denafrips(backordered at least 8 wks) and Sabaj D5 all look good at a reasonable price.  I have a Sc... 
Which is the most important part of a stereo system?
I order:  HD source(or turntable), then speakers, then amp, the rest .  With that being said, the speakers change the sound the most and it is a matter of taste.  
Beginner: Best all-in-one including speaker unit?
I have edifier S2000 from Amazon. $400. They sound good and will play quite loud if you want.  I would say bass is 50-55 hz. There are all kinds of powered speakers once you start looking, you won’t believe it! 
Beginner: Best all-in-one including speaker unit?
A pair of powered Bluetooth speakers. Some of them are pretty nice. Some have sub out, turntable jack,etc 
Billy Cobham Question
Sorry for mistake.  You are correct. It was Lenny White.  I also saw George Duke in that time frame maybe I have them mixed up.  I do love the Spectrum album.  Shame on me for not following him after that.   
Billy Cobham Question
I saw Chick Corea and Return to Forever in 1975 or 6.  What a band!! Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke, Al DiMileola and Billy Cobham.  What a performance.  They did the Romantic Warrior album.  I was pressed back in my seat the whole time.  Awesome sou... 
Should I sell my accuphase for this schiit
I have owned the Aegir for 2 months.  It will drive efficient speakers to high SPL.  The sound is very detailed and easy to listen to.  The price is awesome for this performance level.  There is another small manufacturer, Monarchy Audio, that I c...

Thanks for asking crouse99.  Yes, I have had them for about 3 weeks.  First of all, if you like the Forte or Cornwall, you would probably like these.  They are big at 115 lb each; almost identical in size to the Cornwall.  They are made of Russian...

Canibefrank I would start with Crites speakers.  They have plans for a 2 way Heresy ported and the Cornscala 2 way.   They will cut out the pieces and send them to you or assemble them.   They sell any and all drivers with cross overs to match.   ... 
A different method of streaming.
There are more and more of these coming onto the market.  I too didn't know anything about this so I figured out your should have Bluetooth 5.0 and apt X for the latest and greatest.  I bought a $95 Blue Dento from Amazon(you can go cheaper) and i... 
How are you liking Amazon Music HiFi now that it’s been out a month or so.
I have had this since it was introduced.  I already had Amazon Prime and Amazon music.  I tried it and found that coupled with my $95 Blue Dento streamer I got very good sound.  I am debating about upgrading to a Bluesound streamer but for now thi...

I looked back through my notes from Bob Crites and son. I asked about the "B" and "D" version. He said the B goes higher than D because of the CT120 tweeter. And most people buy the B. I am not sure if it is because he steers them that way or not?...

I have searched around and there aren't many reviews.  He has upgraded them over the years.  I am not a parts expert but the 120 tweeter is an improvement.  The midrange is a JBL.  The woofer is an Emminence, I think.  The woofer and tweeter are c...

A Pass Labs XA25 would be my dream amp for these!!  My preamp quit so I am running my Bluetooth receiver directly into the crossover right now.
