BlueSound releases new Node models
I was thinking of buying a LPS for my node 2i, I think the new node with built in LPS will be the ticket, and if the new built in DAC is any good that will be a bonus. Of course, the nodes allows use of an external DAC. I was surprised how much ... 
Audiogon seller's question
@lalitk  You are absolutely correct; I was looking at it from the wrong angle. PayPal F&F is the right way to go for the seller.  
Audiogon seller's question
I believe @lalitk meant to say use PayPal Goods and Services option only, not F&F. For buyers with no feedback, wire or PayPal F&F options only.   
Audiogon seller's question
Regarding phone calls, if I remember correctly, the potential buyers name and address and maybe phone number became available via the A'gon offer/sale process.  I always found a way to contact the buyer.  In fact, they were just as happy to discus...

Suggestions on improvement

Audio envy - dang!
@kclone  After you have lived with them awhile I would be very interested to hear your thoughts on the SP-14 speaker cables.  I am using the same Canare cables and have been kicking around purchasing the SP-14s.  
Bluesound
A poor job of correcting my spelling error of "combined" on my first post.  
Bluesound
ever produced combines = ever produced combined Written before morning joe.  
Bluesound
I have the node 2i, no problems ever. I would mention that in my opinion only there are probably as many Bluesound nodes sold as all the other streamers ever produced combines.  And virtually no complaints about their excellent operating system a... 
A Somewhat, Affordable Aurender
For those above who did not read the attached link, it is about a combination streamer/DAC, not a stand-alone streamer.  
Review on Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC
@teajay Great question! You might find it shocking that the Pass Labs DAC-1 performance is quite close to the present day reference level DACs. Amazing!  What is this like a 27 year old DAC?      
Has a Power Conditioner Improved Your Sound?
When power conditioner threads come up someone usually makes a statement that one of the functions of a well thought out transformer is to eliminate or at least significantly lessen the impact of noisy power on sound quality. Then inevitably no o...

Reading my post above, I wanted to add that I have worked in large to middle sized corps my entire career and have met many wonderful people that are still friends after retirement. This is just to add that I am not anti-corporation by nature as ...
