| Rockport Lyras he then went on to hype up this speaker and a follower of his bought them off him. It was a quick flip and he made money the funny thing is he didnt even like them. But he made sure to make it known in his last video that its a business and that... | |
| Do you trust your ears more than measurements? After treating the room is produces this now. SOund better? Word much? | |
| Your absolute top ten favorite tracks. Musically, this is good; sonically, it is superlative. Really in the top 3 sounding tracks. | |
| I am about to embark on my next upgrade journey I'd second the Fritz recommendation. The Carbon 7's have a hold on folks, for good reason. See, e.g. this and this. | |
| Giving Advice without recommending your own equipment Also, it seems many recommend equipment they do not own or ever heard. Truth rides on the credit system, William James said. That means that most of what we pass along are claims we have not verified ourselves. Why would audio be different? Wh... | |
| You tube hifi influencers. Love them or hate them? @chenry I think it pays to have an open mind about "influencers." In this hobby, the numbers of brands, the flood of new products, the relatively fewer shops that carry any audio gear pretty much require a willingness to explore the web for inf... | |

| You tube hifi influencers. Love them or hate them? I stick with reviewers/influencers with some (or a lot) of technical knowledge. If I come away from a review having learned something general about the technologies involved, I subscribe to the channel. Tarun, A British Audiophile, is usually in... | |
| For the love of...kits? @corelli The Analog Ethos website and product line looks really great. There is real consideration for the newbie. I really like the comparison page and the approach to straightforward instructions. Have you built or heard these amps? At the momen... | |
| For the love of...kits? Thanks for the recommendations! I will look at Falcon and Audio Note kits for sure! | |
| Are there other people like me ? Amazed by their low cost system :) Then read me with no projected suspicions about my thread intention ...Dont use innuendos. Relax. | |
| Are there other people like me ? Amazed by their low cost system :) All I said was, "Someone who was certain they were satisfied might not be tempted to ask this question." Pretty benign statement. Easy to agree with. No one here is certain. You're not certain. I'm not certain. I can admit that. The length of your... | |
