Why the hate for mcintosh amps?
I am curious why you consider not having a line-stage preamp is a flaw in their lineup. Do you think this limits adding a separate non-McIntosh phono stage? 
My Experience With Tekton
I do find it weird there seems to be an obsession with telling everyone about these speakers.  
Review Shunyata Venom V16 Power Distributor
Thank you for taking the time with your follow up post. I have never had electricity described to me the way it was to you in terms of available power. The power draws on those other devices shouldn’t have impacted the available power to your comp...

Is today’s contemporary music lacking?
Every generation says this about the next generations music. Some genres are worse and some are better. The music industry is just that… an industry. They produce formula driven music to make money/profit. It’s been that way since the music indust...

Who let out the secret that us McIntosh owners only bought their stuff because of resale value and it’s design?! Crap!! Next thing you will find out that we actually don’t even turn the components on to listen to music. We just look at figuring ou... 
who makes your fav cable loom in 2021?
I recently purchased a set (speaker, jumpers, and xlr interconnects) of Synergistic Research Foundation cables. Dramatic improvement over the Blue Jeans set of cables that I was previously using in my system. The improvements are so good I’m getti...

Most of us accept that audio memory is very short and pretty poor.How do professional musicians know what to play if audio memory is very short and poor? Just curious.  
You can go home again
This is a fantastic question.  I know it has impacted what genres of music I prefer. I absolutely think it has affected my preferences for music reproduction. I spent my childhood around unamplified musical instruments and choirs. I didn't atte...
