| Tidal skips to next track, or restarts when paused iPhone i had similar problems with tidal on my phone (rarely if ever on my pc)--as posited above, i'd venture that it does have to do with streaming such high bit rates on a mobile platform. it ended up being a deal-killer for me--i switched back to spo... | |
| Pioneer DV-09 plays DVD's not CD's help i'd surmise that jed is correct and that you're trying to play cdrs, which aren't compatible with the dv09. try playing a redbook cd and report back. | |
| What's up with the ridiculous offers?!? i acknowledge , by any accepted standard, acting that this is american and a buyer should be free to make stupid lowball offers, which the seller is free to ignore. however, some of us still cling to the illusion that audiogon, as opposed to othe... | |
| Older 90's highly rated bookshelf vs. newer technology driver technology in particular has continued to evolve--manufacturers are using ever lighter, stiffer materials and (i would assume) more advanced computer technology in the design process. whether or not this evolution results in better-sounding... | |

| Home Theater separates won't fit in new house the new generation of class d amps are quite compact (nuforce nuprime etc.)--i'd look seriously at those | |
| If you could bring back one great artist that has elliott smith | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report dm3, west of anywhere--world class powerpop by one dom mariani, an aussie whose prior bands like the stems and someloves are also revered by fans of this generally unpopular genrebevis frond, example 22--the 587th album from my favorite eccentric ... | |
| Matching speakers to vintage amps ads (570, 710, etc.) would be a good match | |
| Bass driven floorstanders? look at monitor audio rx or tekton lore | |
| B&W 'New' 800 Series bo1972, can you please explain more about three dimensional sound and your innovations in this area? | |
