Who are your three favorite female singers?
Shelby Lynne 
Proud Harbeth p3esr owner - need help tweaking/troubleshooting
Why would you like a bad recording to sound good? Would be a very boring speaker. If you run Roon you can just use the parametric filter to reduce the range 1500-3500 Hz with a couple of db’s when playing ’hot’ recordings. Lindsay Ell is far from ... 
Speakers which always sound good
No one if your talking full-range or close to. But if I really had to I would probably go for my JBL 4425’s :-) 
I was going to give my son a system, with brand new Solid Steel rack but he has AirPods???
Also trying to figure out what to give my (grown-up) kids. For sure it’s gotta be active and app-controlled. No cables. The Naim mu-so been appreciated so far, but want to find something more capable. The new active Buchard system maybe. Welcome t... 
Node 2i VS Lumin D2
Innous with Roon is the way to go. 
Sub Question. One higher quality sub or two lesser quality? (Rythmik vs HSU)
Learn your room and speakers and measure your response below 500 Hz before you do anything. Most subs just output distorsion below 25 Hz when playing loud. Professional digital correction of your Cornwalls may give you quite another listening expe... 
Old vs New, an experience with Dynaudio.
The bass is the problem. Might be that the 60´s bass is killing the music for you. When you control the bass everything sounds so much better. 
Tidal vs ATC
Since this thread is active again I'd like to state that the ATC150asl is back on top. Driving them with Innous Zen mk2 and Roon with Acourate convolution filters and a Matrix dac made it! (recommended for any big speaker). The response is flat to... 
High Performance Audio - The End?
If you believe all "new" music sounds bad it's your system that is at fault. "New" music demands a lot from your system that the "old" doesn't. In my opinion the average quality of recordings never been better than today. Guttenberg? Who listens t... 
"Bridge Over Trouble Water" sounds artificial
There are a good and there are not so good high res systems. On a good the studio version of BOTW is fully enjoyable with some minor warts. Just so you know.  
"Bridge Over Trouble Water" sounds artificial
Well, there's so much fine new (and old) music to listen to so I'm fine with that and don't complain anymore. Problem is when friends or children come visiting and they all request those crappy recordings.... :-( 
"Bridge Over Trouble Water" sounds artificial
Obviously Mr Garfunkel couldn't take those high notes in the end so he needed some help which screwed up the recording a bit (done better today). The same with Mr Mercury. But he had Mr Taylor to help him out. Whats the problem? Still a very enjoy... 
Can Room Correction Be Added to an Existing DAC?
Wow! Thanks. Actually I got the 63's with Gradient basses, stands and crossover. So maybe doable. Just need a little space :-) 
"Bridge Over Trouble Water" sounds artificial
Disagree. 
Can Room Correction Be Added to an Existing DAC?
mijostyn, I would like to run stacked Quads with subs. Heard this in the late 70’s playing Little Feat Waiting for Columbus. Still a reference in my memory :-) Actually got a pair of Quads 63 in my wardrobe so maybe, but don't know how to get a st...
