Amp first approach to build a system. Anyone did it ? @newbee + 1 | |
What percentage of digital vs. analog? @grislybutter - some people sell their entire collections en masse to larger record stores. These days I listen to my vinyl about 70% of the time and CD's the other 30%; don't have a good streaming setup yet... | |
WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR? It's the internet and anonymity, and it's certainly not restricted to high-end audio; you'll see it in forums/opinions of just about any subject that exists. | |
Have you asked yourself this question? @lewm - all that on half a gummy? Dang, I wish I could get a buzz that cheaply - I would need at least 20 of those gummies before I'd start to feel anything.... But I always enjoy cannabis with my music.... | |
Have you asked yourself this question? For my 2-channel setup, I play mostly analog (except for some YouTube vids). For my headphone setup, I play mostly digital. | |

Steely Dan UHQR I ordered it last week; should be showing up any day. This is the kind of thing I've been wanting to hear since I upgraded my speakers a few months ago. 'Aja' was like an 'audiophile' recording when it came out. Another great audiophile-quality r... | |
Running a Vacuum Cleaner near Tubes I remember when we got a color TV console in the 60's, and the guy had to come by with the Degaussing ring and a mirror to angle in front of the screen, so he could see what all the color adjustment knobs on the back were doing as he was adjusting... | |
Do you think driver “break in” is real? @erik_squires - indeed, once broken in, a speaker should perform how it was designed to perform and no more playing will increase the performance. I dunno about that 'very quickly' part, though - that's not been my experience with either speakers... | |
