| How does 10+ year old technology compare to modern: Musical Fidelity M1 DAC Sounds like a plan.👍 FWIW I have a similar older vintage mhdt Constantine DAC that I still like very much.

| Holy cow: Ringo produced by T Bone Burnett! Ok I checked out the track with Alison Kraus and am sold. I predict a big hit! Added to my library. It’s amazing how Robert Plant and Krauss magically jelled. Go Ringo! Love the cowboy hat! Thanks @bdp24 You are always the man with the music ins... | |
| Holy cow: Ringo produced by T Bone Burnett! This on Qobuz: | |
| Holy cow: Ringo produced by T Bone Burnett! Well Yee-haw!!! Country Ringo! Seriously….sounds interesting. Will scan for it on Qobuz. On a side note, Ringo’s Beatle’s cover turned me on to Buck Owens and the Buckaroos who I think are one of the best things ever in country music. Love that ... |
