| OK...here's another tweak that really works +1 @mrskeptic ! As Rocky the Squirrel said to Bullwinkle the Moose: "You don't have to be a squirrel to be nuts!" | |
| Need recommendations for a streamer @fuzztone +1 @hilde45 +1! The Node and the iFi are both competent excellent streamers! | |
| Does upgrading you system have to be on a logarithmic curve? Great sounding audio gear was built in past decades. That's what I buy and use! Present day stuff has little appeal. | |

No DAC converter is used! In fact when you use your phone to check your bank records you are using a server! Dig... | |
| D’Agostino Progression integrated This five-figure gear is just audio jewelry in bespoke casework. Amplifiers have been transparent to the source for a few decades now! I bet in a level-matched blind test my Sumo Andromeda would be indistinguishable from any of the above amps. | |
| Happy Birthday Phonograph Got to give credit to Emile Berliner for inventing the flat disc back in 1889. That allowed for greatly increased production compared to Edison’s cylinders! | |
| Happy Birthday Phonograph Remarkable invention considering Edison was deaf! | |
| How many plays can you get out of a good record? Use a long-contact stylus with Stylast lube and vinyl could last indefinitely! |
