| Streamer recommendations I run an Auralic Aries Mini into an AN Dac to good effect. The Mini is no longer produced but plenty of original Aries on the used market. Also they have the G1 and G2 Aries on the market. | |
| Publications and websites for equipment reviews https://www.dailyaudiophile.com/This is an aggregator of all the online review sites and other things audio. | |
| Any thoughts on the changes or changing Audio names/terms/meanings. They were always called monitors in pro audio. I think the name bled over to home stereo especially since people hopefully put monitors on stands and not the bookshelf. | |
| Audio hobby is like tasting wine. @millercarbon Appreciating in value with age is not what I meant. Wines, those intended for aging at least, also improve in quality and drinkability sometimes vastly. Break in aside audio components don't typically improve soundwise with age. | |

| Cheap cart confession Zu puts a new body made of machined aluminum on the Denon in place of the original plastic body. | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? I would say the problem is no one here, unless you know some of us in real life, can be at your home hearing the changes you describe. Of course there are some who wouldn't believe their own ears anyway. That to me is also fine just no need to arg... | |
| Qobuz Special Offer @tuberist In what view were you looking for alphabetical listing? And I assume this is on the Lumin app? | |
| The quest for the right interconnect and speaker cables (Siltech) Just wondering since you have two amps and preamps have the cable results been the same mixing and matching your gear? All systems are different so i can’t really comment on your results but I’ve previously tried and liked the Siltech SQ-88 Mk2 an... | |
| Cheap cart confession @tablejockey I have nothing to add other than I read this post last week, :D |
