Schumann Resonator
Well, I just got mine... I got the shiny one with pretty lights. $35ish. Just plugged it in, I don’t know what it is doing, but it IS doing something. My system is no slouch and my room is as treated as it can be practically speaking... and damn, ... 
Schumann Resonator
Yeah, I bought one over the weekend. Intriguing to say the least, not even from the audio perspective but from the potential health perspective. From what I gather, given the ultra low frequencies is it acts like a sub would in terms of snapping e... 
Can't believe I let myself get sucked in again.
Then there is bipolar vs mosfet... that’s always good. The Node is great to explore world music. I’m all over vinyl, but it really is limiting in the exploratory realm... I don’t buy vinyl on a whim. I do stream on a whim and then find stuff to bu...

REL HT series subs for music?
My dealer said no on the HT’s for 2 channel, just not fast enough. Great for movies (hence the Home Theater HT). Try a T or S series. The T9i is a real surprise... excellent little sub for the #. If going with a swarm concept they may work a bit b... 
Parasound a21 upgrades
For a single box a JC5 for sure. Mono’s JC1s. I agree with Eric, PC’s are a great add Parasound gear seems to like Shunyata power. Not much else really. You are getting into the price realm when there are so many great options, it’s really tough t...

Luxman L-590AXII vs Pass Labs INT-60
What YYZ said regarding the demos. That is the best bet. OP didn’t mention anything about speakers or room... so the bipolar vs mosfet discussion has nothing to do with the original question.Get a demo from Reno... make a direct comparison. It is ... 
Speaker set up and IRREGULAR rooms.
Ditto on the bass traps. You are kind of beating yourself on the head with a hammer until you get the room under better control. I had similar issues, added some room correction, tightened everything right up. Not perfect, but that’s nearly imposs... 
BS Node 2i: WiFi or Ethernet..?
Ethernet. Check Blue Jeans cables for cat6 cables. Well priced, and actually tested, with throughput results. My Node sits 3ft from my hub, there is no question wired is better than WiFi... 
Phono amplification bang for the buck
Team up a Parasound JC3 Jr with a solid preamp and you will,be good to go. Adjustments on the fly, will run any of your carts all for around 1200.00. Leaves a nice healthy sum for a killer pre amp.  
Hegel H390 vs Krell Vanguard digital integrates amps
Hegel. Very difficult to beat at its price point. 
Embarrassed....Audio furniture help
Wow, I hope some of you aren’t actually serious about the wife comments... but perhaps you are. To each their own. Regarding the dilemma, it’s hardly a dilemma, find a furniture builder and have the furniture designed for exactly what you want. Th... 
Led Zeppelin II
The newest full media box set sounds excellent overall. One of my favs. Particularly Whole Lotta Love.
