I Sold my CD Player!!! Streaming sounds so incredible!!!
@baylinor On the contraire. I invested just as much or more in my CD and vinyl rigs as I did with my streaming rig. However, I’m extremely pleased with the way my rig streams music. I was most pleased to get rid of my vinyl rig over 20 years ago.... 
Magnepans VS MartinLogan for detail and sound staging
@ baconboy: At my local high end audio shop, I just recently got a chance to audition a pair of Magnepan LRS+ speakers, augmented by a pair of high quality REL subs, and the sound produced by that combo was nothing short of spectacular!!! The Magg... 
KEF LS60 WIRELESS + KC62 SUB OR HEGEL H390/KEF R7 META + KC62 SUB?
Go with the the speaker/Hegel combo!!!  You'll be one happy camper!!!  
Most overrated audio manufacturers?
Audionote!!!  
New speakers for a new start?
You know, speaker preferences and tastes are so incredibly objective that, asking a question like this on a forum like this really is quite useless, and really is quite a waste of time, IMHO.  Happy listening.  
New speakers for a new start?
I concur with Dave and Troy!!!  
First impressions: Silversmith Fidelium interconnects
It's always so very incredible to find something out there that works so amazingly well in ones system for such reasonable prices!!!  Congratulations!!!  
Quality of recording while evaluating speakers
What is this???  "Rocket Science??? Just go out and find a recording that meets your standards and use it to audition the speakers!!!  
Deals Gone Bad
Ebay has always been shaky.  Audiogon and US Audiomart has never failed me.    
I want to buy new speakers for 50,000 and see it used for 30,000, what should I do?
@emergingsoul   Come on buddy!!!  This is one that you'll just have to go figure out for yourself.  Who in the world can answer all these personal preference questions for you?  You'll just have to get up off your rump and do the legwork, research... 
Audio Cables: All the Same?
Do cables make an audible difference?  Why, of course they do.  However, whether or not cables make a difference, like all things high end audio, is solely dependent upon the ears of the individual audiophile, and no one else.  What the hell do I ... 
Audio Cables: All the Same?
If you can't hear the difference in cables then you're just flat out hearing impaired!!!  Heck, even an entry level high end audio system will reveal the differences in cabling.  This is not Chinese Arithmetic!!!     
Borresen X3 vs Harbeth 40.2 -- my impressions
Funny, after all the Borresen hype (they do sound quite good, IMHO)  Not one Borresen model made Stereophile's Recommended Components list.    
Basically happy, but…
Go with Audioquest Thunderbird XLR interconnects, and thank me later!!!  The Audioquest Thunderbird is certainly not cheap, but could be your last interconnect purchase.  They're that insanely good.  
Revel Salon 2
Jump on it!!! To this day, even with so many newfangled high dollar speakers coming out of the woodwork, I still very rarely hear another pair of speakers that I would trade my incredible Revel Salon 2 speakers for, especially for the money.
