Drinking Songs playlest... What am I missing?
How could “If You Don’t Start Drinkin” by George Thorogood not be at the top of the list?😂  
Is it possible to have too much/too many filters/tweaks?
Thanks for the awesome replies! Great great, insightful points all! I enjoyed reading every single one. Especially the ones referencing “spending more money” and “buying stuff”-still LOL on that one @mapman 😂   You know, it’s never ever that I’v... 
Music server recommendations needed.
Keep your current streamer and get yourself a Brennan B3. I have the Brennan B2 and have all of my 300+ cd's ripped to it. I too am new to streaming (held out as long as I could) and LOVE it! I have the Eversolo DMP-A6 Master and LOVE it! I have a... 
Eversolo DMP-A8 bypassing my preamp despite setting to fixed volume out
So sorry to hear this @swhite007. There truly is nothing worse than reconnecting and having any type of issue. I can SO empathize😞! I have the Eversolo DMP-6 Master and absolutely LOVE it! Sounds like there may be some sort of setting on the DMP-8... 
Processor sound comparison- Anthem avm90 vs NAD M17 V2i
I have owned the Audiocontrol Maestro X7, Marantz AV8802A, McIntosh MX122, Outlaw 976 in my main HT/Audio system. I do 5.1. Of all of those I I give the edge to the Maestro X7. However, I came across a great deal on the Krell Foundation UHD 4K and... 
What is your "holy grail song" that you cannot find?
“Silver Train” by Jon Anderson (Yes) and John Paul Jones. Had this on cassette a hundred years ago and have not been able to find it anywhere ever again😞.    Also “Holy War” by John Butcher. Have never been able to find this one either…  
Bluesound
I am using Qobuz not Amazon so it’s not just an Amazon related issue…haven’t tried rebooting but I’ll give that a shot. When all else fails reboot!  
Bluesound
Yup, I get it too. It’s annoying but doesn’t seem to interrupt streaming…Just have to hit the ok a few times. And it literally happens every time I stream. It’s just dumb🤷🏼‍♂️  
Leave it Open or Close it Off: A Listening/ Living Room Dilemma
Install the door. I went through the very same thing. The opening to my theater room had no door. I had a glass panel door installed (hung curtains as well on the door) and just love that I can close the room off or leave open if I so choose. Do t... 
If Steely Dan had a different vocalist
Very few songs have struck as much at first listen as The Royal Scam. This is a song I cannot ever get enough of, especially cranked up! I have been listening to Steely Dan for over 40 years, but only a few years ago actually heard The Royal Scam ... 
Which HDMI cable for I2S?
I have Transparent throughout in my main system. When I added a second system I gave some DH Labs cables a try. Their Mirage USB has got to be one of the better bargains out there. Can't go wrong with DHL at any of their levels...  
Upgrading to a stand alone DAC
I will absolutely second the Topping E70 Velvet. If this isn't the most underrated DAC in the sub 1K price range, I don't know what is. Helomech is spot on. Save 1K and grab the E70 V....It also has balanced connections...  
Can a DAC do triple duty?
Hi @davidchampa, Funny you should ask this question. What I have found very interesting is that when streaming through the Eversolo I have found the sound to be much more "alive". And I noticed this immediately! Best way to describe it, music jus... 
Class D Option For Bass
I’ll absolutely second the Buckeye Amps recommendation! Give them a look.   
Herbie Audio Lab - Tenderfoot
I have Herbie's under just about every component. I have never removed the stock feet from any of my components. With my Earthquake Cinenova Grande amp I have the tenderfeet under the stock feet just to give the amp more lift for breathability pur...
