I currently use a BlueSound Node 2i.  I am in the process of changing from using RCA cables to connect my BlueSound to my ARCAM AVR550.  The Cable Company suggested connecting my BlueSound to my ARCAM AVR550 because the DAC inside my ARCAM AVR550 ... 
Adding a “safe haven” forum for discussion of tweaks?
I think if someone is a soothsayer or attacks someone with a cute sarcastic statement they need to support themselves with facts.  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.  As a result they put down others who can.  Perhaps their hearing loss doesn’t allow them to hear ... 
Zu vs. Tekton? -- your comparisons on price, build, sound
Grislybutter - have you ever heard Synergistic Research Atmosphere Level Speaker wires.  All I have thinking about is upgrading my speakers.  However, Jason Ressler at The Cable Company kept telling me I haven’t heard my system.  I didn’t believe....

I recently noticed I can respond and communicate with the individual who posted a comment.  This allowed me to get to know people on a different level and tap their knowledge.  These changes are difficult to understand using the limitations of my ...

trying to contact Albertsportis
I purchased two REL S2 SHO’s on faith because I had never met him and he was great to work with. He helped me set them up on the phone and was very helpful. He is straight forward and he won’t hesitate to tell what he thinks. Too many dealers will... 
Bought the wrong subwoofer!
Why can’t you return it to the dealer you purchased it from?  They should advertised up front the subs wouldn’t work with your system.   there isn’t anything like REL.  I have two S2 SHO’s and they totally changed my system.  Their high level co... 
Moving away from inefficient/low impedance speaker in order to move to a Tube Amp
I have read over and over again how important it is to purchase high efficient speakers.  Why bog things down with a low impedance speaker?   I wonder what people think of either then Revel Performa's and the Paradigm Persona 3 speakers?  I did ... 
Listening to music I don’t particularly like
I too find myself listening to well recorded songs to hear my system.  Percussion is a big thing for me.   You might listen to these songs to hear what your systems are capable.  These are high quality recordings: 1. Girlfriend (Feat, Dam-Funk) ... 
Finally Learned: Subs serve much larger role than adding more low bass
If I were to use 4 subwoofers, I would need to custom stall wires and run them about 20 feet to the back wall..     I researched subwoofers for a year and I thought REL's were the way to go.  Their high level connection allows them to act more l... 
WTF: uncontrolled Tsunami of Spam pure crap post arising on AGON daily
I actually contacted Tammy about this and I did not receive a response.  I told her there is a rise in discussions polluted by cute comments.  I personally think there is no room for a put down.  However, there are a few who start a ridiculous dis... 
Have you ever been turned off by an Arrogant Dealer? Thoughts
What I have noticed is most of the dealers are not willing to sell below full retail.  Some of the out of town retailers are willing to sell for less because they can burry the sale without anyone being the wiser.  Let's say they drop their price ...
