My Brief Impressions of FiiO’s New K11 R2R DAC & Headphone Amplifier
Sounds like DCS robbed ya. I can't believe how incredibly good the DAC is! I wanted something small and convenientfor my bedroom headphone system. I was blown away by what I was hearing. I was so impressed I decided to compare the K11 dac to my ... 
My Denafrips Aries 15th has too much mid -bass, anybody else??
Sony’s hifi division makes very high quality devices. You were probably spoilt by the HAP-Z1ES. Return the dinner frips and be happy with the Sony. Audiophiles will only feel "elusive" if some guy builds crap for them working out of his garage.... 
I Was A Skeptic Now I'm Not So Sure
The highest quality ethernet cable should be the one terminating at the streaming device.  
What should I upgrade next in my system?
@rickguild No, your Anthem prepro is the heart of your multichannel system and shouldn’t be going anywhere. These are 2 channel guys on this forum, who are probably quite confused about your rig. A higher quality streamer transport into your Ant... 
Piano is just 300 years old? There's more.
Veena, a Indian stringed instrument has ~4000 years of documented history. , i.e fairly complex build, metallurgy required. "Simpler" wind instruments go ways back... For example, the didgeridoo (indigenous instrument of Terra Australis) goes bac...

Dynaudio Special 40's vs Wharfedale Super Lintons
Stretch your budget or try to get the Wharfedale Elysian (2 or 4) used, instead of wharf super Linton or the Dynaudio....especially since you seem to be getting a pair of Exposure monos. Elysian has the "high end" sound without the high end price...

Wonder if butter dude lied on his asylum/refugee application or somethin..One has to wonder otherwise why there is such constant buttery incessant paranoia on every thread that Donnie might deport his hiny back to wonderland....bwahahahaha (Polit... 
Why Energize the Whole Room/Virtual Reality Audio?
I understood the premise alright....It appears you are a bit confused about what would suffice for a practical  solution. The closest practical thing outside of 360 reality headphones (sony), not granpa's cans/headphones would be something like t...

  @m20j201  Here is the completed speaker for a higher cost, if you don't want to mess around with a kit. https://gr-research.com/product/nx-studio-pair/  
Why Energize the Whole Room/Virtual Reality Audio?
Strange post....You can’t sit inches away from regular speakers with multiple drivers because drivers need some distance to sum. At typical farfield distances, 2 speakers/stereo is largely inadequate for providing a fully enveloping 3D soundfield... 
Anybody having trouble getting near-your-asking-price for used gear ? (Plz. no hype)
During some exploratory years, I sold/rotated more 'higher end' items to dudes outside of core audiophilia...business guys, padded musicians, etc, who know nothing about the nerdy side of gear...depends on how connected you are, i suppose (how muc...

Oh, you'll be surprised...there are enough dudes who take out loans or whatever to buy things....he justifies it as financing a truck, a raptor or whatever else. I've even refused to sell something to a dude or two in the past when i figured out ...

Stuff with a msrp of 10k or under, more buyers...even 60 to 70 % of msrp can probably be considered a good deal for the used goods shopper. (frankly, there’s not enough of a margin built-in on many items) Stuff with a msrp of 50k or above (enormo...
