Technics PL-7 turntable… because I gave it to a Thrift Store… when I moved from Lewes,DE to Naples,FL  
Bluesound Node 2021 DAC - I sold my Denafrips Ares II
Bluesound Node is ahead of it’s time. PLUS, it’s an all inclusive PreAmp… my headphone never sounded better out of its jack, then into balanced AAA 789… incredible! Four Stars  
Speaker Gratification
No doubt. I was fortunate to get the ones not number played, early years. Mint. Paid $700… drove to pick them up… blessed!    many tougher days ahead. One nation. Under God. With Liberty. And justice for all.     
Tube Amp settings: Triode vs UL; 8 ohm vs. 4 ohm ?
Thanks to all responses. And add to that a Schitt equalizer in the midst… it’s truly a Smoothie to any harshness on my Forte Ones.   
Tube Amp settings: Triode vs UL; 8 ohm vs. 4 ohm ?
Thanks for responding. I should also say that perhaps consideration should be given to my Micro 3000 SVS Sub, related to the Triode vs. UL switch? As some will know the Sub settings are “ on the fly now with SVS installing their App on your phone?  
Do hi-end DACs offer true value or diminishing return...
Funny. When you call professionals, and ask about adding more DAC, changing a DAC, etc. … they’ll usually ask the question: “Well, can you REALLY tell the difference?” And I’ll have to say, “No” There are just too many variables which have even ...

Best DAC?

Recommended streamers/servers?
Get the Bluesound Node. Does more than meets the eye. Soundstage, clarity, you can’t tell any real difference anyway...are you going to A/B switch two DACS? No! $600 
Is there better amp for bass then Cary Rocket 88
We all know our rooms’ dimensions, our ears, and our tastes… vary from one room to another person’s hearing. I have found that the simple act of inserting Schitt equalizer into my Cary Rocket 88, Bluesound Node, Polk sub, and Klipsch Forte mix… fi... 
Cary rocket 88 vs dynaco st70
I’m enjoying my Rocket 88. It is controlled in Triode currently, by my Bluesound Node and it’s nifty remote (extra$), (or your cell phone/ iPad app). Paired up with my Klipsch (Gen 1) Forte, absolute bliss @96db sensitivity. I’m selling my Dynaco ...

Experience with Cary CAD 808, "Rocket 88"
I have paired the Rocket 88 with a Bluenode. Fantastic in so many ways. And the end product comes out my first generation of the raised  Klipsch Forte. Immense, immersed sound from the 95db, at the lower 20 watts flick of the toggles.
