| What would your "perfect speaker" sound like. My perfect speaker sounds like a speaker that's true full range and musical. Just that simple. | |
| Can you live with your current speaker until you die? Like you, in my current home, in my current room (and I don’t plan on moving anytime soon) my "take-to-the-grave" speakers are, my beloved Revel Salon 2 speakers. The Salon 2 speaker perform, from top to bottom, at such a high level of proficiency... | |

| Which to keep! Pick one of these two soeakers Ok @mirolab Didn't mean to upset you, buddy. | |
| Testing Ethernet switch I have an extremely moderately priced Pakedge Switch that I'll probably never part ways with. If an individual wants to spent 10K or more on a damned switch, be my quest. | |
| Warm vs Revealing—the struggle for balance Once you settle on which kind of sound, warmer or cooler, pleases you the most, you just have to keep experimenting with different gear before you can finally achieve true audio satisfaction. Just that simple. | |
| Which to keep! Pick one of these two soeakers It’s true. You really shouldn’t ask others what speakers you should keep. As with all things high end audio, and especially with speakers, it’s strictly a personal choice as to what's most pleasing to your own ears. You must simply listen, listen,... | |
| Not sure for power conditioner my amp or not. Years ago, this was the big question for myself, as well. When I asked the experts what to do, some said plug my amp directly into the wall socket, and some said plug it into a power conditioner. So, I experimented. I spent a considerable amoun... | |
| Best place to buy Mcintosh Integrated Amp Me, myself, I'm always looking for a bargain, so I never, ever buy new. I always purchase pre-owned. For the past over 20 years, whenever I was in need of all things high end audio, I usually am able to find great deals at one of the following w... | |
| Bought a system without auditioning, thoughts? What the hell. Go for it. I've done something similar in the past. It's your $$$$. This is a crazy hobby, and you felt so inclined to put a system together the way you did, just because you could. No sweat. Anyway, if it turns out you aren't... | |
| Intg Amps: Hegel 590 vs NAD M33 Masters vs Gryphon Diablo 120 I’ve had the opportunity to audition all three of the great integrated amps that you’re considering, extensively, and here’s my assessment (I auditioned the Gryphon Diablo 300). The NAD M33 is great for the money, but system matching is critical w... | |
| Speaker cable recommendations I "bit-the-bullet" about 15 years ago and spent beyond my budget on a pair of JPS Labs Superconductor 3 speaker cables, and they were one the best high end audio investments I ever made. I still have the Superconductor 3 cables with no plans to r... | |
| WHY CABLES MATTER! "Why Cables Matter?" Everything matters!!! | |
| Best set-up under $20K Do yourself a favor, and don’t even think about it, seek out a pair of pre-owned Revel Salon 2 speakers, and thank me later. Revel caught lighting-in-a-bottle years ago when they first introduced the Revel Salon 2s, and it took years for the other... | |
| I stream 24/7. Do you? I'm an old guy. I grew up on vinyl, CD, cassette tape, reel to reel and 8 track tape. I have a very expensive, high resolution audio system. But, at this juncture, all I do is stream from Tidal, Qobuz and downloads. Why? The combination of co... |
