Retirement System Finally Completed: Impression of the Mola Mola Tambaqui
Congrats @jsalerno277 ! I've had my Tambaqui for a bit now and it continues to amaze!  I also have Vivid speakers, Giya G2s2s and love them.  Plus, my electronics, Audionet, are similar to your Burmester in that they are clean, fast, resolving an... 
All in One amp up to $7k
My Soulnote A2 gives audiophile pleasing smooth sound.  I agree with @russ69 about separate digital (streamer / DAC).  The Integrated will be timeless, the digital not so much.  
Does anyone on AG truly care anymore about objectivity & sincerity of Magazine reviews?
+1 @alan60, 'you have to read between the lines".   @john1, have you ever owned YG speakers or heard them critically, with a great system?  I have owned Hailey 2.2s for a bit and they are outstanding; asstonishing resolution and clarity.  Compari... 
Looking for my End Game Speaker
Hi @calgarian5355,  I loved my Haileys.  Fast, tight, super imaging, very resolving. But I like the Giya G2s even more.  Much more lower midrange and bass.  And even though they are ported, the bass is very controlled.  Just deeper, richer and st... 
Looking for my End Game Speaker
Hello @calgarian5355, I have had my Vivid Giya G2s for a week now and they are fantastic!  Imaging, depth, resolution, a true sense of involvement with the music. We share the same streamer and DAC...

Newsflash - Jord discusses Pink Faun’s new OS and their Scion streamer Oct 2024
Very interesting.  As a Roon lover, I certainly understand how other software streamers sound better.  But I want my Roon and the brest sound!  
Comparing Powerline Ethernet to WiFi for streaming audio
I have a relevant situation.  In my vacation home I have no Ethernet wiring past my modem location.  I have installed an Eero pro 6 mesh system with base and two extenders.  One extender is in my audio room, where I have a WiFi connected Auralic A... 
Power cord upgrade
Using the Shunyata Denali 6000 v2 I have had great success with both the Shunyata Sigma v 2 and Kubala Sosna Elation power cables.  
Separates vs Integrated
Try an AudioNET Pre 1 G3.  You see them here for under 4k. It was  my first taste of high end.  
Using a power strip in an old home that was build back in 1955
Your circuit, which likely consists of several to many wall outlets, is likely on a 15amp breaker, if you have breakers.   This can be easily overpowered with that number of outlets on one strip.  Add up the amps of each thing you intend to plug i...

IsoAcoustics Gaia feet with carpet disks
Hello @jrdavisphd  I installed Gaia feet on two sets of speakers with great results: BW N802s:   Replaced stock rolling casters with Gaias and carpet discs on carpet / pad over concrete. Better soundstage and imaging for sure. Revel Salon 2s: r... 
Wireless speakers
Hello @jdsmichaels , have you tried the new Sonos Era 300 speakers? I think they sound great, and super EZ to set up.  I have previously used Bluesound and these are way better.  Also B/W which sounded great but was not EZ.  
Next step up on the streaming food chain?
and, as I have asked before, where are all (anyone?) the happy 432 Evo owners? ???
