I think people need to express themselves and at times disagree with them. They can be polite and also realize ther... | |
| Next best exponential DAC quality level? A tech rep from the Harmon Luxury Group came out to our house to diagnose my system. While he was there he played my system at 35% volume and compared a song played on Tidal and Qobuz. I couldn't believe the added detail when hearing the same so... | |
| Zu vs. Tekton? -- your comparisons on price, build, sound I think a lot of people who are non-believers in speaker wire are those either have difficulty writing the check or are jealous about those who can.
