How cheap can you go and still be happy with the sound?
I hope I never get to a place in this hobby where I can't enjoy a system because I know that a different group of components might sound better. That would be just as bad as not being able to enjoy a good meal at a cheap restaurant because I migh... 
I found audio nirvana....
@livinon2wheels Key word here is "NEARFIELD", even cheap gear can sound a lot better in nearfield by beginning to get the room out of the way. Many confused souls will spend 20k on a power cable, but $0.00 on a room or $500 for a couple of decora... 
Tekton Polycell15
@kdude66 , @sbayne ​​@viablex1 Hey... who all heard or owns this ’polycell 15’ maybe? If you do, would you be able to make a comparison to the sound of the double impact? (which is really my only point of reference for the tekton sound). thanks....

Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz?
I rarely find something I like. To me it sounds too disjointed, like everyone is trying to out do the others and they are all playing a different song. @fthompson251  When someone is not the greatest composer (just doesn't have it in his head, ... 
Ansuz Darkz resonance control footers
It is just an OPPO, didn’t need 5100 dollar footers....Further, nothing about this footer is even remotely worth 5100. $500 would be pushing it. (facepalm) Try aliexpress, you will get the same "improvements" for about 1/100th of the cost. Anyo... 
Has anyone here had any dealings with Tekton, particularly their subwoofers

Has anyone here had any dealings with Tekton, particularly their subwoofers
My negative comments were based on appearance only...and were intended to be funny. @livinon2wheels Many Tekton models (not all) with the different color combinations look like some expression of modern art to me, quirky not ugly. Oddly, my spo...

I love my Livingroom box speaker it is one of the best ever made, but I recently heard an open baffle speaker, and I am thinking this is the future of speakers. I am now in the queue to get one once it is released very soon. Going to keep both sp... 
Has anyone here had any dealings with Tekton, particularly their subwoofers
To end my rant, I was going to buy subs but after the months of waiting on the wires and being told they’d ship immediately, I was a little soured on them for my subs and went with rhythmiks instead, which I HIGHLY recommend for subs. Would love ... 
Why isn’t more detail always better?
@lalitk   @whart   +1   As a music lover I am not looking for “ forensic” listening or a microscope to examine the fine details and loose track of the music. Another thought about highlighted details, they can commandeer your focus of atte...
