| RIP Chick Corea RIP Chick thank you for all the music. | |
| Greatest Audiogon Audiophiles ever and the GOAT This thread is a very bad idea. | |
| Why so many angry audiophiles? Honestly I think the whole premise of audiophiles being angry is overblown and internet specific. Get most of these guys in person and I'm sure they are largely friendly and interested in talking audio and listening. Online is obviously a differen... | |
| Who else is using old cables/interconnects, and is happy? @justmetoo Lol Michelle your pitiful Mark Levinson/Burmester system is so "not sufficient high end" indeed! :-p | |
| Who else is using old cables/interconnects, and is happy? @whipsaw I used to use the Purist Musaeous Praesto Revision speaker cables but they were handily beaten by Cerious Technology speaker cables. I've since moved on the Audio Note Lexus to complement my speakers but highly recommend the Cerious cable... | |
| Takedown of pricey servers, streamers OCD HiFi guy @lalitk Holy crap that Taiko looks like one of the best built audio devices I've ever seen.

Parts cost plus labor plus ... | |
| Spendor SP2/3e Opinions? Great speakers buy them and your amp should drive them just fine. | |
| Grant Fidelity parts ways with Psvane I will say I can't blame Psvane for being upset at Grant Fidelity distributing Lanlai. However their actions were underhanded and uncalled for I am on Grant's side here. | |
| Help! Can't Get Rid Of Buzz in system at Higher Volumes Just out of curiosity is the turntable input on your Marantz a true phono RIAA input? If so your running your table into a phono stage and then into another phono stage. Try running it into one of your line inputs. | |
| String quartet or saxophone quartet? I prefer jazz but I will say I find strings to sound amazing on my system. | |
| What does Hi-Fi Even Mean anymore? I was more down with Louis Dorio myself: "Hi-fi in 2021 really has to do with a philosophy rather than a set of stringent requirements. It’s instead a listener’s pursuit of the best playback quality, independent of the format (vinyl, digital) that... |
