The Raven Has Landed
The Osprey is significantly more money for insignificantly more power and sound quality. There is no real gain and Dave said as much himself. Those with much less efficient speakers wanting more power may feel otherwise but for me it was money for...

What James told me was almost 2 months ago, when parts were so uncertain he wasn't about to say anything any earlier than a year. So that is the way things go. My Sovereign turntable got stuck in Customs, flown back and forth across the country, t...

Thanks guys. It is coming together but not as easy as it looks. Busy morning got a lot to do but thanks again. 
Quantum Science Audio Thread
oregonpapa- I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around just how good this fuse is. As it has continued breaking in, the midrange is coming into its own very nicely. There is a concrete realism that was not there before. The human voice is a... 
Occult noise and the pulse of sanity

All amps often sound their best when paired with my system. allears4u- Pulling the sub load off Raven and onto SVS has transformed the nature of the sound stage dramatically. Deeper, even more distinct 3-D, getting impression of maybe 20% more det...

Sure, and thanks. The QSA Blue fuse is impressive! A stone bargain. Don't even want to think how much you could spend on a power cord and not hear this much improvement. Hundreds. Easily. You want the small one. After having played with these more...

The Reflection situation worked out to my advantage. Because this cost a lot less than I was planning, it might not be the end-all amp but it left me with a what can I do instead kind of thing. Which didn’t take long to find the answer: Origin Liv... 
Moving the sweet spot
I wonder how many of us have hearing damage in our right ear because of driving with the nagivator? 
Stone fireplace wall effects on acoustics?
finally gave up, tore out fireplace. The things we do for audio! Amateur! A real audiophile would tear the whole house down! After all, everyone knows our job is to transform every livable space into an unlivable listening room- preferably to then... 
Origin live Cartridge Enabler - a review
Compliance shouldn’t matter. Not that kind of thing. Compliance got nothing to do with it. I just got one btw, came with the Origin Live Enterprise MkIV arm, that came with the Sovereign MkIV turntable. That came with the Gravity One record weight... 
Bass sensation like a loud car system in home?
I don't think it is that giant. I distinctly remember hearing him say one time when he was excited, it is a full three inches. 
WHAT ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT SONGS OF OUR TIME AND OR THE BEST LOVE SONGS EVER?
The most important song is Here Come the Brides. It put Seattle on the map. Also the most romantic song. Or at any rate it is cliche enough for this tired old thread topic. https://youtu.be/R5L6PWNaZCE?t=50
