Ditching Roon going back to BluOS for Bluesound Node 2i
Mostly I was hoping he might check in and make a cameo appearance.  A lot of the old posters signed out before they left, letting us know they were quitting posting.  But he just disappeared one day.big_greg, he was just one of a few that had a pl... 
Guest suddenly takes it upon herself to move my speakers
Common sense would have prevented 99.47% of people from moving the speakers. This one got loose.Slight correction, common sense would have prevented 99.47% of adults from.....Need a whole different percentage for young kids, they don't usually rea... 
Ditching Roon going back to BluOS for Bluesound Node 2i
Well, the Lumin is 4 times the price of the Bluesound, so if there is anything to the saying "you get what you pay for", it should sound better.  And of course, looking down the line, when a better streamer comes out for the same price as the Lumi... 
Smoke on my power amp
ihcho, I probably missed it, but where was the paint burned, on the capacitor or whatever got hot, on the inside chassis, or the outside chassis? 
All the brands I don't like...
Mijostyn +1 Anyone who reads every word of every post probably has too much time on their hands. I like Erik's post in general, but sometimes don't feel like reading every single solitary word. And to those who are so clever they had to "read sham...

Not having read the whole thread, did you mention whether or not you liked the sound better with the speakers in their new location? 
Last Preamp? Could The Search Finally Be Over?
I was just looking on the Herron website, it seems that the OPs unit has been discontinued and the new model is the same price and can take a variety of tubes. Hope he/she knows this. 
All the brands I don't like...
In all of audio there is only one gear I don't like, Luxman integrateds.  Treble like a dentist drill, sucked out mids, bloated bass. Only the deaf need apply.  Hah, just kidding. 
Just another Orange fuse thread
I am honored that I am now reading the script of those who have learned to listen.  
Higher End DACs
It is interesting that Djones is discussing the role of the modem.  Would the same streamer/DAC sound different if connected to different brand modems or different quality modems within a brand? 
What is this speaker cable connection?
+1 gdnrbob, the really easy clear solution is with a simple wrap of electrical tape.  No reason to listen to those that get all high drama about it, the connectors will likely work just fine.  As mentioned above, if they are too long to connect fr... 
Something For The Fuse Guys ...
I have explained many times right here on these forums why fuses and all wire are directional in AC circuits including the power cords.Yes, you have explained it so many times that, well forget it. You have explained that in the wire extruding pr... 
Something For The Fuse Guys ...
Wolf, your point regarding directionality is well made. Unfortunately, at this point I have also come to regard a number of Millercarbon posts as "lame". I mean who insults another person’s listening skills they don’t even know? And Millercarbon, ... 
Which is the most important part of a stereo system?
Easy, the plugs 
10 meters of interconect cable is too long.
I think before I spent all that money for something I did not know for sure would work I would order something like this, from Monoprice or online.  You can buy two 35 foot RCA's for a total of about $30 plus shipping.  I don't know whether these ...
