| Which Component Has the Greatest Affect on Low-Level Listening Loudness control, how about that! How quickly we forget they ever existed. Good for Schiit, and good for efficient speakers. Still, aren't we hypothesizing near-field listening and a low noise floor? Because if I want to hear from any distance or... | |

Nearly everyone has other uses, and other users, of the same space to be considered. And we all have different aesthetics. For instance, I won't display a black component unless it... | |
| Suggestions for New CD Player A cdp "could be prone to issues." In English, would this mean it might not work? That it might malfunction? Prove unreliable? Bust? Can you imagine David Copperfield being told "don't marry Dora, she could be prone to issues?" | |

| Is Carl Bernstein an Audiophile? And everything quoted from Bernstein by mikeydred was a correct assessment at the time and remains so today. Demonstrably. Which is to say, Bernstein was right then and still is.But then I thought this was a question about CB's suspected audiophil... | |
| Does Age Matter? 73. Like everyone of my time, start with vinyl. Never had the stability of lifestyle or resources for R2R, quel dommage, but that's that. Along come cassettes, onto which you create playlists from the LPs for in-house convenience plus portability.... | |
| Looking for suggestions for a network capable DAC/Streamer If you are looking in the Cambridge can price range, look just above to Cambridge Azur 851N. $400 more, built like a tank with a better DAC. | |
