| Best Dedicated Streamer I would agree with @newtoncr that you should consider or research the Wolf Audio Systems Alpha 3SX or Red Wolf. I have had my Alpha 3SX for 3 years - Stereophile Class A. | |
| One turntable with two arms, or two turntables with one each - which would you prefer? One turntable with two tonearms is what I currently use. I absolutely agree with @ghdprentice on his comments about the need to invest in a quality phonostage. | |
| Am I Better Off With Limited Low Frequency Speaker In A Small Room? Listened to the new model stand mounted Vienna Acoustic “Hayden” speakers last week in a dealers large room. I was surprised at their performance as far as musicality and the range they projected. I heard a previous Hayden model a few years ago... | |

| Network Acoustics ENO USB III -vs- Sablon Panatela Reserva 2020 I also use the Sablon 2020. Replaced a WireWorld Platinum and Audience frontRow. Very pleased with the presentation that this cable provides in my system (Wolf Audio Alpha3sx > Gryphon). | |

| Why did my amp just crash and burn ? @chaseton Glad you found the fuse drawer and especially the fact that there was a spare present. Remember now to acquire another fuse to put into the “spare” slot for future use if needed. Again congratulations. | |

| Best server to house Roon and 4 TB of music feeding DCS Vivaldi Upsampler and Dac Contact Wolf Audio in Jacksonville FL and speak to Joe Parvey. My Wolf Alpha 3 can have up to 12TB of internal SS drives, I believe, though I use a 20TB NAS on my network for music storage. I use Roon as my interface and its perfectly quiet. |
