| Who positions their speakers straight ahead (zero tow in) and why. Crites speakers are wide. It looks like more toe in than I really have. They are pointed at me intersecting behind my head. Wall to Wall sound stage with good depth. | |
| Can we make major musical discoveries at age 50, 65, or 80? I'm 68. I love music, not all of it. However, I always liked the new stuff, synthesizers, etc. I can usually tell if I like a song right away. I listen to many kinds of music. | |
| Stereophile review of the new Wilson Watt/Puppy I can't afford them but remember what a stir they made when they came out, and maybe $10,000. I thought Sasha Daw was the replacement for WP. Out of the loop. | |
| Where are the front men? (Rant) Usually, in Qobuz, I can scroll to the bottom and find suggestions or similar artists. This much better than letting them hand me a playlist. Meanwhile, if you like Americana or country, there are more male singers. There have been several who... | |
| ACTUAL MUSICAL SOUND VS. MEASUREMENTS The only specs I care about are output at 8 4 and 2 ohms and current. | |
| Streamers and software I had silver plated digital coax, albeit Chinese. This replaced a Pine Tree Audio OCC coax. I then I tried silver coated interconnects. Currently I left those in. I kept OCC interconnects. So I could go back. This has been a slo go. The siver I... | |
| Streamers and software Well, I have an Innuous Zen Mark 3 coming with the Nordost Purple flare USB cable. I read in another thread right after I purchased the Zen that the DAC USB connector must be galvanically isolated or it causes problems i.e noise. The Topping has a... | |

| Will Accuphase E-800 be enough to power Klipsch La Scala speakers? That will be a very nice sounding system! | |
| «Today’s Lyrics Are Pathetically Bad» Rick Beato Some of the best lyrics have been coming from the Americana scene. I realize it's a stretch from jazz and classical. Artists like teddy Swims, Sturgill Simpson, Tyler Childress, Zack Bryan for example. Incredible performers. | |
| Streamers and software Yes, cat 6 to my streamer. BT is noisy. The data rate is 3X more for Qobuz and it seems to add that little extra. I could probably get by until updates come through. I was trying to figure out how to erase everything and start over. Copyin... | |
| Streamers and software Thanks all. Lots of suggestions. I am pretty sure the Qobuz sound was noticeably better. I am always wringing more out of my system. I could have done something else at the same time. But I will try Amazon again. We are generally in agreemen... | |
| Streamers and software Eversolo, Wiim,Geselli are all the buzz now. I see too many for sale used already. They would all be a step back from where I am. There is a good selection online of Aurender, one Simaudio, innous but might cost close to $2000. I guess that is a ... | |
| Streamers and software This is what I read: Volumio is buggy Roon is buggy Lumin apo not very good. Sense works good Let me know if this is not correct. You guys have already given me a couple good ideas. I am not opposed to used. Is the DAC IN the moon better tha... |
