| Tidal Hifi has a very limited jazz selection Some of the problem is that Tidal's catalog requires assiduous effort to find the albums one is looking for. You practically have to type the whole title, and then hope it is available.B | |

| 84k speakers... Big disappointment I have Bang and Olufsen in my car ('16 TTS), it has to be one of the most disappointing systems I have ever heard. Even my '12 TTS with Bose sounded better-well, at least I could listen to it.B&O has been bought by corporate entities. They rea... | |
| Shipping heavy speakers freight options U Ship shipped my pair of 3a sigs with no problems.These are many owner-operated shippers who make their living shipping within their routes. U ship seems to vet them well.If not U Ship, I would find a shipper who can put them on a pallet-much lik... | |
