McIntosh is now inside a Jeep luxury car.
if you walk around the new Wagoneer, you will not see any Jeep badging whatsoever. So, technically, it is not a Jeep . The same as when Dodge changed the brand of their trucks to Ram šŸ. Pretty sure Jeep is using the same playbook, so many marketin...

Musical subwoofer under $2000

I love the idea of having two subs, getting one REL, and then start saving up for another one is the path to take. Unless youā€™re 90 and on your deathbed, enjoy the journey. Sure the rhythmics now Will give you plenty of satisfaction. I just truly ...

Streamer question
@curiousjimĀ donā€™t have the unit yet, so canā€™t say on that particular question about output. With the pulse mini, they only have Qobuz and title. So I am assuming that the entire lineup has the same options. When I spoke with a Innuos representativ... 
Streamer question
@tom2441Ā still waiting for delivery šŸ“¦, will definitely let you know my impression. @curiousjimĀ Thatā€™s the most logical thing Iā€™ve heard all week.lol. Over spending on gear is a way of life for the discerning audiophile.Ā   
Streamer question
+1 for Innuos. There will be a used pulse mini plus the zen lpsu power supply at Olsen HiFi in Lynnwood WA as I upgraded to the Pulse. If interested, should be available around the 10th of December. Good luck šŸ€ in your search.Ā
