Qobuz sound quality intermittent issues?
@audphile1 I am sorry to hear of your troubles but relieved that another person has experienced this (was pulling hair out with this issue). I have experienced various streaming woes for nigh-on three years when I first tread into the deep end of ... 
During this isolation, I would be interested in suggestions of great movies you like.

Update on Audiogon Member Almarg
Very sad to read about this. Al has been a source of wisdom and sage advice, and I warmly thought of him as the Audiogon "dad", a go to kind of guy who never yells, but always instructs.  He will be greatly missed. I will pray for Al, his wife, an...

What's going on with Synergistic Research fuses?
@adam8179 So lighting strikes caused surges on your local power grid, enough to cause at least one fuse to blow right? Yikes. Sorry to hear; I do wonder if it’s possible that other components were stressed in your amp, or other gear, and that migh...

Focal sopra 2/Gryphon Diablo 300 not good match
D2girls; my confidence 30 and 50 measure very flat; Dynaudio designed these in their mega expensive Jupiter Lab; they are like a precision instrument that does not emphasize any particular frequency, so I’ll have to disagree with you; Some speaker... 
Focal sopra 2/Gryphon Diablo 300 not good match
@joannism For what it’s worth I attempted toe-in (and moving to other area of house to try in different acoustic environment) and nothing would shake the intensity in the upper midrange/ lower treble (aka "presence region"); I did not put thin cot...

The Audio Research Ref 3 will always be a serious preamp; Very good analog never goes out of style. Cheers! 
Why does a Music Server require high processing CPU power?
@jbhiller absolutely! Roon ROCK has been incredible. 100% stable no variation in SQ, no performance issues, lagless UI experience; best of all, the SQ is crystalline pure. I now never use the MConnect/UPnP option on my ethernet DAC; Roon is fantas...
