Subwoofer advice
Your room is quite large.  I recommend two REL S3 SHO's to play in stereo and to fill space without having to push too much.  I did this in a room 13.5" x 18.5'.Look also at Rythmik. 
Recommend speakers for a large living room
I wonder if you purchased a decent receiver and set up a pair of speakers for that separate sitting area.  Then turn on and off the remote pair when you want to listen more critically to the two main speakers?  Not an expert on this.  Perhaps you ... 
Need a SACD DVD player on a low budget.
I was not aware an OPPO can play SACD.  That is good news because I would like to hear the sound difference by order a couple of SACD CD's. 
I'm not even quite sure how to phrase my question, but here it goes...
Uberwalz,  I have a Bluesound Node 2i.  Can you explain how I can see on the Bluesound ap what the resolution is.  So far, I am unable to see this information.  This would be helpful, but I don't think it is possible to see the resolution on the ap.

Call Jim Salk at Salk Audio.  His Song3 Encores at $6,000 sound incredible.  Listened to them at RMAF and they were by far the best speakers under $20,000.  Jim sells direct, but uses the best speakers and his cabinet workmanship is custom and rea... 
sellers trying to sell used product for 10-20% off of list price
I agree with Roxie.Selling an item less than a month old doesn't warrant 50%.  If they don't like buying something practically new then let them go to a dealer and pay for it. 
Purchased new speakers, need amp suggestion
Parasound integrated.  It is worth the money.  Bite the bullet and get something worth owning.  Surprised you purchased an Aria 936.  When I heard them I asked, "Where's the Bass." 
Remasters - are they better? What exactly is it?
I personally find the newer recordings to be of much higher quality.  They sound crisper in the highs and tighter in the bass.  The vocals sound better too.When I listen to my system it is easy to say now that is a great recording.  They just seem... 
What's a really great Streamer/DAC box for just streaming Tidal?
I don't know why I found using just the Bluesound Node 2i to sound better than the external DAC.  Is there something about listening to Master recordings streaming TIDAL's MQA?  I sensed warmth and space for some reason.  Wonder if anyone else hea... 
What's a really great Streamer/DAC box for just streaming Tidal?
I recently purchased a Bluesound Node 2i and the dealer suggested adding a Pro-Ject S2 DAC.  By connecting the two using a digital coax cable, I lost the complete unfold of MQA.  Adding the Pro-Ject DAC added more trebble.  More pronounced sound o... 
Best budget streamer on the market now?
Amazon Music Unlimited HD is a new contender.  Their library is very large.  Most of their hi res plays 24/96.  However, I wish their interface looked like TIDAL's when streaming through my Bluesound Node 2i.  Only problem I am having is trying to... 
velodyne dd plus? still considered best of the best?
I almost went with a pair of the Rythmik 12" subs.  But decided to go with the REL S3's because of their high level connection.  They blend quite well because when connected that way they act like an additional woofer to help extend the bass witho... 
How many of you believe in MQA?
Cycles2,I wonder if you are familiar with the Bel Canto eOne streamer.  A Bel Canto dealer told me the Bluesound is an applance and the Bel Canto an audiophile piece.  For triple the price, could I have heard a significant difference.At the dealer... 
Bluesound Node2 with outboard DAC
The dealer I purchased my Bluesound Node 2i suggested i connect it by way of Audioquest Carbon digital coax cable to an inexpensive Pro-Ject S2 DAC.  He told me the the Pro-Ject, even though it is very inexpensive is better than the DAC inside the... 
How many of you believe in MQA?
No one has explained why connecting a Bluesound (MQA certified device) to a Pro-Ject S2 (also MQA certified device) by way of digital coax cable destroys the full unfolding of MQA when both devices are MQA certified.
