Schiit order issue - anyone receiving shipments?
Agreee, good to have a fully assembled product, but communication is horrible.I could be waiting an additional month or longer. No info about status.   New orders for preamp say 7-10 day.  Very very misleading. 
Schiit amps, freya preamp
Preamps are not shipping my guess.couch’s are a known delay nightmare. So sorry. 
Schiit amps, freya preamp
Waiting nearly 2 months for my preamp from schiit.  Info on timing very unclear.business may be failing.  No sign anything is shipping. 
Chord mscaler - what’s so good about more taps?
This is an amazing review. 
Chord mscaler - what’s so good about more taps?
Yes, but isn’t it better to convert analogue signal with more taps? 
Bigger drivers = bigger soundstage
So many rabbit holes herein. All worthy of explanation.  So much so hard to follow.speaker designers will tell you it’s hit or miss when putting it all together.  A rigid heavy speaker with ample cabinet room behind a driver with a mounting struct... 
Move From AVR to Integrated?
What’s diff between integrated amp and avr, seem same type of box. 
Schiit Freya order delay, no clue when it will arrive
Did contact and they don’t know when freya will ship.  They misstated time line 
B&W 802 d3 vs 803 d3
Thanks, 802 physically is a lot larger, did it see oversized when compared to 804 or 803? Curious about your room size? So you upgraded demo 804 to 803 to 802. Seems very expensive journey.  I am cutting out one step and going to 802 from 804 d3. 
KEF Reference 5 vs. B&W 802 D3 speakers - which one better? your knowledges & opinions
Limited nice comments about 802 d3, kinda surprising. Stereo listening is superb with 802s, very articulate.  802 need a solid amp like McIntosh and a tube preamp.   
Does the Chord TT2 Dac need a linear supply device?
Lps not really needed for tt2, which’s come well prepared for current issues.  If you try one pls share findings.  Spending funds elsewhere. 
Sound quality impact - preamp vs power amp?
Love audio research line stage but leaving 8 tubes on all the time when watching tv sucks.  Tube life is 3000 hrs so not meant for a ht system.good news possibly, have heard new arc models are planned to keep tubes off when in bypass mode.  Hope i... 
Sound quality impact - preamp vs power amp?
danvignaulike yur comment. I like separates.maybe an integrated system where preamp is blended with the amp serves to achieve something of value in light of all the various components presumably matched a lot better.  So maybe this is a case why s... 
Sound quality impact - preamp vs power amp?
Curious, no comments about interconnecting cables. The quality of coaxial or balanced cables of good quality may make a diff? Just saw $11k speaker cables, seems remarkable.great comments herein. Soo many really smart souls. Tough keeping componen... 
Installing new wires in room with hardwood floors
Mahleri have holes in hardwood floor in one room. Works but not ideal. Thought I could do a floor plate but I guess you have to really cut away at floor wood to house everything.  Not ideal.  May just pay up and do a wall socket.  All larger rooms...
