Best ear plugs for both sound quality and reduction Went to see Wishbone Ash and forgot my earplugs. Had to leave. Anyhow I’ve tried numerous options. No such thing as perfect. I went back to Etymotic. But upgraded to the ER20XS https://www.etymotic.com/product/er20xs-high-fidelity-earplugs-dual... | |
Your last concert was to see who and when? Samantha Fish December 14 2024 Kent Stage Kent OH Not the first time and will not be the last. | |
Shanling ET-3 owners - a couple of questions, please Today an ET-3 was put into use. My DAC only has a USB connection and wanted to once again listen to CD’s. Best my system has ever sounded. The sound stage opened up. Was pretty centralized. The remote is as basic as a remote can be. But I am pr... | |
R2R next? Don't like ESS I listened to a Topping E70 (AKM4499EX) at friend’s house. One very well may end up in my system. Would replace my Cary Xciter. | |
The best opening act you've ever seen & heard? In 1979 when John Cougar Mellencamp opened for Heart at Blossom Music Center. Heart did not have a good night. JCM made them look bad. | |
Products you added to your system in 2021 that made most impact to your music enjoyment Added Analysis Plus Oval 9 speaker cables and Crystal Oval interconnects. First new cables in close to 25 years. Holy heck they had to make a difference. Hard not to.o | |

Fanfare FT-1A needs some lovin’ This just 26JAN22 popped up on my notifications. Whatever was ailing the unit seems to miraculously cured itself. Thank you for the response. ralph | |
Do good power cords have to be stiff? Simple answer… NO! | |
Recommended USB Cables. I bought a Phasure USB cable. Do not have much to compare it with. For sure better than what it replaced. Some respect shown on this site. | |
The first system you had that was "high end/audiophile", by you standards When I was 18 I moved out on my own (ok with a roommate)I had a decent job and bought the best system I could afford.Nikko receiver, realistic speakers, Garrard turntable with a Audio-Technica cartridge.Bedroom system. Sly’s “Sex Machine” Lol! | |
DAC Choices - $5,000 to $7,000 Simply based on the bottom tier Mojo-Audio DAC in my system I’d have to think the better DAC’s should be on anyone’s audition list. If I had the $$$ for sure one would be in my system.My server was built by Mojo and uses his Deja vu software. | |
