| Experience up-leveling streaming with USB cables? Hi @bluethinker , A few years ago all my analogue cables with AU24SX and I thought they were great. Then my dealer brought KS Elation speaker cables for me to try with my new Hailey speakers, and oh my so much better. Still very resolving (a str... | |
| Room is way too bright. Yes @Audioman58! Don't overlook the nice wool rug in front of the speakers. Also many systems can be inadvertently tuned to brighter with some cables containing silver.They seem resolving at first... | |

| It Was Twenty Years Ago Today! Hello @larsman @onhwy61 ! So this 1975 Pink Floyd Concert kept rattling around in my head. I keep remembering the plane crashing at the end of Dark Side of the Moon behind the stage. It came from all the way across the arena up high! Check... | |

| It Was Twenty Years Ago Today! I remember because Jimmy Paige looked me right in the eye during their 1977 The Song Remains the Same tour. Second row, Capital Center, Landover, MD. Same goes for Pink Floyd crashing their plane behind the stage at their Dark Side of the Moon c... | |
| Streaming from a TV Great Summary @mapman ! Certainly eARC over HDMI can carry the higher resolutions and formats, and can be very smart and clever when hooking components. But I have had issues with incompatibility on some TV's. For my simple video watching, Tosl... | |

There is a BIG difference in everything, and everything matters. No one can tell another what is good enough or what is worth it. Th... | |

| Do you have a perfect digital marriage? I had my MM Tambaqui for a bit before it was courted by the beautiful and capable Grimm MU1. A perfect match. But many friends upstream contribute to the marriage; A JCAT M12 Switch powered by a Sean Jacobs PS, A GTT DeJitterit Switch and Clean ... | |
| Seller Question - I need UPS to come get these large speaker boxes - how to manage that? Regardless of who purchases the shipping label, the size, weight and location of the items all play into the pricing. | |
| Suggestions for replacement speakers Hello @jeffreypi I have experience owning the Vandy 3s and hearing the Ohm at my friends. The Vandy's are a lovely speaker, but don't really rock out or play loud. They even had warning lights that came on when I did. The Ohm's were music every... | |
| Bose buys McIntosh Hello @telemarcer, "Is there anything more representative of a status symbol other than Rolex?" Blue Meters :) | |
| Faint buzz in speakers I had a buzz or ground hum years ago, and after trouble shooting with the dealer ended up installing some gadget between ac cord and wall outlet that fixed it. It was called 'Magic' something. A search found this: https://ifi-audio.com/products... |
