Where has been your most effective placement for an aftermarket fuse?
To my ears, the biggest improvement I’ve heard on my source components...streamer and CD players. The preamp and amp fuse swap resulted in very subtle improvement. I have tested Furutech, SR Black, Hi-Fi Supreme Supreme Au/Ag and Cu. I end up pref... 
Why high-end cable manufacturers don't post measurements?
@teo_audio,As a cable manufacturer, your post above is very disappointing and disconcerting. Wish you would have contributed positively than resorting to such pettiness. Are you having a bad day? 
Why high-end cable manufacturers don't post measurements?
@ieales, Good post but I think you’re wasting your breath with b4icu. I do not think he is capable of thinking outside the box, what we have here is your typical measurement nerd who will bent backwards to prove his superiority as a subject matter... 
New to Hi Rez Audio
I am sure you heard the saying ‘garbage in garbage out’. Krell preamp will go as far as your source and then some. You need a quality streamer and good DAC for a decent streaming setup. There are lot of threads here on streaming setup. You can sta... 
Why high-end cable manufacturers don't post measurements?
Yup, the thread is primed for measurement crowd and cable naysayers :-)For the purpose of contribution, as long as manufacturer discloses the cable design philosophy and metallurgy...I am good with trying any ‘high end’ cables out there. More impo... 
Single driver vs traditional 3 way loudspeakers
Well not exactly a single driver, my Canterbury’s sports a dual concentric 15” surround with a embedded 2” aluminum/magnesium alloy dome. Frequency response is pretty impressive as well...28 Hz - 27 kHz (-6 dB) with a crossover frequency of 1.1 kHz.  
Sound bar
^^^I will be happy to put your sound bar to test against Sonos soundbar. Let me know once you’re up for the challenge....lol!!! 
Sound bar
Sonos may well be mass produced but it’s convenience and SQ is unbeatable. I have yet to hear another sound bar that can rival its features, ease of use and SQ. I wish OP best of luck with his endeavor to build the best possible sound bar.  
something is not right here and it's on purpose!!!
“lnxs kick 2010 digital remaster mixed by bob clearmountain dynamic range 6 and unlistenable!”Agreed! And you will find plenty of other recordings / remasters that are unlistenable, regardless of the format. Now, please get off the digital bandwag... 
Looking to improve my system
OP,You gotten solid advise from twoleftears. In addition to points made in his first post, I would address the weakest link in your system...Bluesound streamer. I would consider replacing that with a better streamer. Look into Lumin, Aurender and ... 
Why are there so many wooden speakers?
MDF....what the hell is that? My speakers are made bespoke birch plywood cabinetry.  The timeless beauty of the oiled walnut, hand selected burr walnut inlays....not to mention well engineered Variable Distributed Port system allowing low-frequenc... 
What makes differences in cables made in same materials? SVS and Audio Envy
In addition to jwpstayman post, AE cables uses pure OCC copper. SVS uses OFC (commonly used by majority of cable manufacturers).  IME, OCC provides the superior quality copper that gets you much closer to true absolute transparency.  
Another beginner question...
“My DAC amp has a USB-B port in the back.”First thing, the USB-B port on your DAC designated as digital input or for service updates? The lightening to USB-B cable (if you can find one) does not support audio or video output, so your iPhone will n... 
Anybody want a laugh?
“Though I don’t expect this thread to have any lasting effect”You got atleast one thing right and it didn’t even provide any real laughs. Total waste of time, better luck next time 😎 
Audio envy - dang!
“this wasn’t “I think I hear differences”@last_lemming,Nope, you’re not alone in experiencing superb transparency of AE’s cables. I have been using them since 2018. I started out with a IC trial and now using full loom of AE’s cables. I highly rec...
