| What is "break in" and what difference does it make? In amps? Preamps? Speakers? More? I purchased a pair of REL S3 SHO subwoofers and followed their break in instructions. During the first hour I thought I had made a huge mistake, as they sounded really boomy. That was something I did not want. However, after following all of th... | |
| Focal Aria 948, Revel F208, Tekton Double Impact I purchased my ARCAM from a dealer who sold Focal Arias and I tried to love the 948 Focal Arias, but kept saying where's the bass. I also listened to Bowers & Wilkins and even their 804's lacked bass. Not that I like boomy bass speakers, but... | |
| Getting close to starting the upgrade process... Buy an integrated Parasound Amplifier and a pair of SALK Song3 Encore speakers. You will not believe your ears for the money you spent. SALK sells direct because they don't have to cut their price to dealers and instead use expensive drivers and... | |
| What's Worth More on the Open Market - Your Records or Your Audio Gear I'll give you $5.00 for them. I can never understand why anyone would own a turn table and records because most of the time you can hear the noise from tracking the needle in the grooves of the record and this is after you freshly clean a record.... | |
| What player to stream Amazon HD with? I tried Amazon and canceled my subscription I like how Tidal displays on my Bluesound Node 2i much better. I also, despite what others think, like how MQA sounds. It is nice to know what you are listening to and the way the artists wants people ... | |
| fair complaint about Audiogon, violating no guidelines, removed Agreed. What's wrong with mentioning the name of a retailer if they are not treating their customers wrong. Perhaps they need to be singled out as a warning to others. | |
| Shortcut or badcut? You will lose your sense of sound stage. | |

| Quobuz issues on the Bluos app I love the interface between the Bluesound OS system and Tidal. I also like MQA dispite what others in this group think. | |
| Should I still buy a CD player? Suggest one? CD players are a thing of the past. I purchased a Bluesound Node 2i and I no longer play CD’s on my OPPO CD player. I stream Tidal and I love hearing hi res recordings and MQA. | |
| Why are brick and mortar HiFi dealers so bad? The only legitimate dealer I have dealt with is Alber Sportis who owns Precision Audion and Video in Chicago. I purchase some expensive gear without knowing him and he was twice as good after the sale and he priced things better than the local de... | |
| Need tips to better my sound Get a Bluesound Node 2i and stream TIDAL. This will allow you to listen to hi res and to also enjoy MQA. I liked the Bluesound better played by itself rather than adding a DAC. | |
| BEST SPEAKERS AT A REASONABLE PRICE soix, I listened to everything at Magnolia and found the ARCAM 505 to be much much better. You could get a deal at Listen Up in Denver. | |
| BEST SPEAKERS AT A REASONABLE PRICE Paradigm 85F floorstanding speaker plus their 55C center channel. You can call Scott at The Sound Shop in Colorado Springs. He will give you a screaming deal. Tell him Larry Edwards sent you. |
