| Choosing between Cornwall IV, Trio15 or X4 Ultra @laynes - Have you talked to Kevin at Upscale about the Triode sound? The veiling you describe should be a concern. Does increasing the playback volume make a difference? | |

| What I wish I knew before starting my audiophile journey "First off are Audiophiles ever happy with their components?" I'm ecstatic. | |
| Good movie and/or 4k disc recommendations? @gimmer - +1 on the Martian. 2001 was/is a ground breaking movie when released. Loaded with philosophy and stuff to make you think. The ending kind of weird but THC fixes this. | |
| Loud Snap at High Volume I once had an "Ace of Base" album with the song "All that she wants". At a certain, and repeatable, point, my speakers made the sound of a sliding patio door being forcefully slammed shut (kudos to my system). I disposed of the CD. Your problem ... | |
| What I wish I knew before starting my audiophile journey Best advice for Newbies: Find an honest, reputable dealer in your area (someone who can make house calls).
