| Bookshelf speaker recommendations You might look into a pair of Fritz speakers if you can find a used pair in that price range.... https://www.fritzspeakers.com/ | |
| Suggestions on improvement As somebody who has worn them for over 20 years, I can say that hearing aids made much more difference to my enjoyment of sound than any of the many pricey pieces of gear that I own. You can get top quality hearing aids at Costco hearing center fo... | |

| What to do/ Sell piece by piece on eBay or Discogs or something like that, which is a great deal of work for a nice-sized collection, or sell in bulk to a store or person, and they'd receive nowhere near as much, but is much more easily done.... I don't know ... | |

| Your Best Friend Forever I like any art where my experience is a bit different each time (after all, I'M a bit different each time); this goes for books, movies, television, and music for sure. I'd put most of what I have in all of these into that category. | |
| How does the Denafrips Artemis HPA compare to other amps? ... so is parting ways with their long-time distributors very recently, and some confusion about all the various versions they've got of each model; high quality gear for sure, I'd be a bit wary of Denafrips for the time being.... | |
