| YouTube Indicates What the Future is For Audiophiles - Interesting Demographics. I think the modern consumer esthetic is something like: "Why buy a Zippo when a Bic will do?" That being said, my son will inherit my kit. | |
| Integrated Amps I’ll offer my two cents on the Billie amp. I had the Mark II version for a couple of weeks to try it out. I was very impressed with the build quality, the design and the functionality of the user interface. I can’t comment on the built-in DAC or t... | |
| Looking for recommendations for integrated with a more “organic” sound. Hi everyone, Not that anyone is still reading this post, but just in case I figured I would let you know that I went with a (used) Sugden signature A21 (not the SE). So far, it pretty much checks all my boxes - nice warmish presentation, harmoni... | |
| Looking for recommendations for integrated with a more “organic” sound. Hi all, Some very interesting suggestions here. Thank you all for your contributions. As for Yamaha, I actually just sold off my A-S1200 as it does not pair well with my Zu's IMHO. Sounded much better with the Wharfedales I had previously. The m... | |
| Looking for recommendations for integrated with a more “organic” sound. He must think very highly of my Dayens Ampino. Apparently, nothing under $10,000 is an improvement. 😉 | |

Thanks for the input! mahgister - I hadn't really given the "vintage" option much thought. I have a number of older units, but TBH... | |
| Hot Rats My top 3 FZ albums… 1. Joe’ s Garage 2. Shut up and Play Your Guitar 3. Hot Rats if you’re a fan, I highly recommend seeing Dweezil. He does Frank’s music justice, and he is an absolutely astounding guitarist (from a musician of 45 years). ... | |
| Share MYSTICAL, HAUNTING songs There are some great songs on this thread. Bravo. “Roads to Moscow” by Al Stewart would be my contribution. | |

| Yet another turntable recommendation question Thanks for all your help people. I clearly have a lot of factors to weigh and options to consider. You folks didn’t disappoint. Fortunately I’m not in a big hurry, so I will spend some time reassessing priorities, and checking out some of your sug... | |
| Yet another turntable recommendation question Some of the new Pro-jects and Music Halls look interesting, despite afixed headshells. The used market in my area doesn't currently offer much, but I'll keep looking. I would be very reluctant to buy used without testing it out first.@elliot _ I c... | |

| Yet another turntable recommendation question Ok, thanks for your input, people. I fully realize that compromises are a forgone conclusion at my budget level. I don’t expect miracles, I was just looking for some possibilities that I had not yet considered, and to avoid as many mistakes as pos... |
