What is the most FUN pair of speakers you've ever had and why?
Still have and love:  Dahlquist DQ-10 and Acoustat 2+2.Wished I hadn't sold:  Infinity Betas and Snell AIII. 
Confession of a poor power cord pairing for a Pass Labs XA-25
+1 Al.  I've tried quite a few and always come back to the Signal.  Not just "good for the money", but excellent overall. 
I have a merchant ID can I use Paypal credit?
I've had a PayPal Credit account since day one, (actually before, it used to be called "Bill Me Later").  Only time(s) I wasn't able to use it was on overseas sales.  If you have to change currency, you can't use PayPal Credit...AFAIK.  
Phonostage/preamp recommendations. Parasound JC3 Jr.?
That's the right input on the receiver.  Now hook up the turntable to the MM input on the Parasound Zphono. 
Phonostage/preamp recommendations. Parasound JC3 Jr.?
Usually, high output moving coils are designed to run into a MM section, not a MC section. Your overloading it.Also, did you hook up your new phono stage to the phono input, or any other high level input, (i.e. Aux, tape, CD, etc)?  That's where i... 
Not streaming yet and considering Bluesound Node 2i? What you need to know.
I agree with big_greg, something is amiss.  It should be pretty difficult to tell the difference between the CD album and the same album on Qobuz?If you want to spend the time, completely reset your Node 2i to factory/out-of-the-box status and try... 
Not streaming yet and considering Bluesound Node 2i? What you need to know.
I'm pretty sure that TuneIn uses MP3 streams.  No way this can sound better than Qobuz...no way.  Unless you are so used to MP3 that the much added detail of Qobuz, (or Tidal or Deezer) seems "tipped up" to you?  It's not. 
Not streaming yet and considering Bluesound Node 2i? What you need to know.
I'm a little confused.  Why are you using the Qobuz "app"?  You should be using the BluOS app for this.  Unless you're talking about the Qobuz "screens" within the BluOS app?  Not sure if this is actually an "app" since Qobuz does have it's own ap... 
Phonostage/preamp recommendations. Parasound JC3 Jr.?
They are both excellent units.  The other poster had a JC3+, not a Junior.  The JC3+ should have been even better?I had an original JC3 years ago and it was the closest I have ever come to my favorite phono stage ever...the Vendetta Research, (sam...

Unless I missed something, (which is probably the case), the OP has a high output MC, (Dyna 10X5, 2.5mv). No need for a SUT, it would over-load it. 
Not streaming yet and considering Bluesound Node 2i? What you need to know.
IIRC, when you first setup your Node2i, it only shows Spotify and TuneIn, (and MUSIC SERVICES). If you click on "Music Services", it will take you to a full list of streaming services. Click on each one you have. It will make you log into that ser...

You need to add the music services to your Node2i.  I have a Node2 and stream both Tidal and Qobuz direct from the app.

I owned a GoldNote PH-10 for quite awhile.  Excellent unit, top notch...until I tried the JC3 Junior.The Junior had an absolute black background, (NO noise at all) and the music just exploded from it.  Dynamic with a finesse that's hard to beat.  ... 
Buzzing after cloth around cone cracked
Bose has never been very good about giving out frequency responses for their speakers, but I would think somewhere between 60 hz-80 hz would work well. 
Buzzing after cloth around cone cracked
@ethan1215...I wasn’t saying that’s what happened in your case. Just stating that, from lots of experience.I’m sure in your situation, the age of the speakers played the biggest part.I want to also add, that when you increase any frequency range, ...
