| Anyone going to the NY Audio show today to Sunday In short, disappointed. Being an enthusiast, I love to look at components and admire craftsmanship, but sound-wise, not much "wowed" me. 80-85% of what I heard left me saying, "I want to go home and listen to my system". Best sounds, in no particu... | |
| Magico S5 vs Tannoy Westminster Royal SE Agree with Charles1dad. | |
| Speakers vs. headphones May I suggest sitting up against the back wall, but bringing your speakers out from the front wall more than 1/3rd into the room? Also, with a fairly wide spread. This way you will have some sense of soundstaging behind the speaker plain. You don'... | |

| Have cables become somewhat of a snake-oil topic. Well said Brownsfan. | |
| Have cables become somewhat of a snake-oil topic. Bottom line people: If it sounds better, it's not snake oil. | |
| Wyred 4 Sound STP SE and ST-1000 I've said this before. I believe many people don't give the Wyred amps at least 300 hours before passing judgement. I've been a tube guy my whole life, mostly EAR amps in addition to Kora and Dynaco. I'm currently using a Wyred STI-500 integrated ... | |

| Novice needs Mac Mini and DAC advice Greg,Congrats on purchasing the Octave. It's probably the greatest value product I've owned through the years. I tried the M2Tech but ultimately returned it. I'm currently using the Audiophilleo 2 with the Metrum. | |
| WAF -1000000000 Biggest sub in the world. My god that's friggin insane. | |
| Novice needs Mac Mini and DAC advice I'm loving my Metrum Octave. At around $1,150 it's an absolute steal IMO. Beat my Weiss Minerva at 1/5th the cost. | |
| STI-1000 Overrated or not? I may have bought my last amp, the Wyred4Sound STI-500. I burned it in with a tuner which put well over 300 hours on it. Very holographic and transparent with a very low noise floor which brings out so many little nuances and inner detail that I'v... | |
| Should Sound Quality of Computer Audio be improved Lmao Nonoise. | |

| Spectron Musician III MK.2 or Audio Research DS450 I wonder if the naysayers of class D amps have given them sufficient break-in time. I have a Wyred integrated which I DID NOT like at first, then after connecting a tuner and putting over 300 hours on it, it really opened up. The cold, edgy sound ... |
