Upgrade Cables or Just Upgrade Equipment & Live in Shame?
+1 on 1 more REL. I have 2 - I believe in stereo pairs -  and they are nicely/easily integrated with the mains, and get some bluejeans ethernet cables cut to specific lengths.

@dougthebiker Each to his own I guess, but why so cagey - no one is going to sue you! (I hope). Your post would be much more useful if you shared the PCs you auditioned.  A recommendation for what the OP should use isn't implied in sharing what w...

@thespeakerdude  There is a long list of musical artists over the years who can’t / couldn’t read/write sheet music.  True, but perhaps an equally long list of those that can. The great Oscar Peterson comes to mind. His scores are complex! As...

@bdp24  If it’s Soul music you want, there is one current "act" I can enthusiastically recommend: The War & Treaty. An unlikely name, but this husband & wife duo of Michael and Tanya Trotter are absolutely fantastic! Listening to this ...

@bdp24 what a great story/history lesson, thanks for sharing. How this post turned out is a testament to those that actually care about music, and to do that, you must have an open mind.

After my recent digital front end upgrade I signed up for Qobuz to compare against Tidal - Qobuz was the easy winner. I downgraded Tidal to the basic level (no MQA access) a long time ago.

@baylinor I think you may have misunderstood my post. I said I respect that you don't like country music...and to clarify - I was presuming that you don't insult people that do. It was intended as a compliment not an insult by any means.

@audioman58 I really like the Cash/Rick Rubin "American" series. II was Tom and the Heartbreakers as I am sure you know - and the production values are quite good.  
Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time
@baylinor I like country music (I am particular about what I do like) and I’m British. Became a US citizen a year ago but I’ve been here for 23 years so I disagree with needing to be born here. I respect that you don’t, but I’m guessing you didn’...

OP did you hear Chris Stapleton sing the national anthem before the Super Bowl? He could be classed as "modern country". Other than that, all I have to say is thanks (not) for divisive worthless post. Not a great start, perhaps Twitter is a bette...
