Please tell me the wait will be work it......my rack
All I can say is I use a Core Audio PkyKraft 3L rack for the components and a special isolation shelf for the TT. This kit is amazingly well built, looks stunning and gives complete isolation from feedback. Here is what the system looked like befo... 
SME IV To V Upgrade, Worth It?
pindac and dover, thanks for your input and advice, which I intend to take. I am going to make life easy for myself and stick with the SME IV; paid for, installed and works perfectly IMHO.  
Experience buying from Europe?
I purchased a Michell Engineering GyroDec (version with plinth) whilst on vacation in The Netherland several years ago. At the time only the SE version (no plinth) was available in the USA. No issues bringing it back to the States (checked luggage... 
HDMI In To HDMI and eARC Out - How Do I Do This?
erik-squires, holmz, many thanks for your help, I had no idea HDMI 2 input is also eARC out, Pleased to report there is a very noticeable improvement in SQ going from toslink to eARC; crystal clear sound, wider dynamics and deeper bass. Next I wan... 
HDMI In To HDMI and eARC Out - How Do I Do This?
Thanks Eric, but my TV does not have an HDMI output, only RCA and Toslink for audio. LG model OLED65CXPUA.  
RIP Christine McVie
"Tell me lies. tell me sweet little lies" is playing in my head as I read about Christine's death. What an amazing musician that made a giant contribution to the music of Fleetwood Mac. Unforgettable, RIP.  
Only two tracks to test your system, forever!
What an interesting, thought provoking question. With live music as the standard for me, here are my two: Lyn Stanley - Pink Cadillac and Route 66 on 15ips RtR tape (London With A Twist, Live At Bernie’s). Stupidly expensive, but, SQ second to no...

Streamer Upgrade Bluesound Node To Aurender N10
Many thanks for everyones advice/input. Based on reviews, and your input, I have decided the Aurender N10 has the potential to offer a big upgrade over my Bluesound Node. I am going to look for a used N10.   Marcus  
Run with 240volt here in Thailand or use Step down transformer?
I have moved to Europe, from the USA, twice. Simply bought myself a 2 kW voltage converter/power stabilizer. Worked perfectly for me. Alternatively, just buy a 240V-120V transformer and use it with your power conditioner. See my previous post on t... 
Best wireless headphones for flying
Recently purchased a pair of B&O Beoplay HX headphones. Using the Bluetooth connection they sound, and look, wonderful to me. Very comfortable to wear and at $500, a real bargain IMHO. Recently tried them on a plane, the noise cancelling optio... 
Mofi Controversy
I am lucky to own all 22 MoFi Ultradisc One-Step LPs. To me the only criteria that matters is SQ. Some of these disc sound as good as it gets IMHO. For example; Eric Clapton Unplugged, Muddy Waters Folk Singer, Bill Evans Sunday At The Village Van... 
Good Reel-To Reel Blank RecordingTape
You say why "elliottbenewcombjr" ? Here's my take on R2R tape.  Lyn Stanley; London With A Twist - Live At Bernie’s. As close to live music I have ever heard, albeit at a high price ($750 per tape). The music is wonderful and the recording, quite...
