Why do I need power management if I have a great power cord?
Erik-Squires, nice manifesto!  Thanks  
Where is best place to sell vintage WiFi?
I'm sorry for you loss.  The Music Room aka TMRAudio is a secure way of selling with the least amount of trouble, involvement and risk. Raysmtb1, didn't you intend to type 3-4 weeks?  
I miss my Loudness Button and Tone Controls....
I’ve had Maggies for most of the last 40+ years. All that time I HAD to have bass & treble controls to compensate for lower level listening. Last year I had to downsize and after shoehorning my 5½ foot tall speakers into the smaller room, I ... 
What is your favorite cover?
Johnny Cash "Hurt" Disturbed "Sound of Silence"  
New KEF KC62 Not Responding?
Looks like mspot is on to something. Who'd have thought to make sure speakers AND headphone output should be selected.  OP, have you checked this out?  
Qobuz/Tidal Differences
JayZ owned a small percentage of Tidal, but sold it a year ago. I’ve never gotten got a message asking "wouldn’t you enjoy listening to some JayZ?" I’m not into Rap but I went with Tidal for their catalog and the Tidal Connect integration with m... 
Where did he go?
His profile says he is in Saint Petersburg Russia. His Internet access may be blocked in some way?  
Whats on your turntable tonight?
Alt-J "An Awesome Wave" This is their 1st album and seems to be their best. I’m seeing it for $99 and up most places, but one seller on eBay has them for around $29 if you’re interested. No, not affiliated with seller, just glad I got a good de... 
No more "High End" for me...Back to Reality Audio
Rajugsw, Good luck with that! 40+ years on the audiophile train and I jumped off one year ago and haven't looked back! Downsized, sold off a lot of speakers and components after settling on a low-end audiophile system that I truly enjoy. I'm jus... 
King Crimson
Court of the Crimson King was the 1st psychedelic rock album I ever bought.. still have and play the mint LP that I bought in 69. I bought it after hearing "21st Century Schizoid Man" and "Epitaph" on an underground radio station, 300 miles away,... 
Apple iPad music streamer
Voodoolounge I think you’ll be impressed! I thoroughly enjoy my Node 2i, which was reportedly a substantial step above the Node 2, in sound quality. Now I’m reading that the current Node is yet another step above the 2i. I used the analog out (in... 
Thinking of taking the plunge.
I have to agree with the Bluesound recommendations.  Good sound quality, stable and intuitive app and good, quick resale if you get the bug for an upgrade. An upgrade might get you slightly better sound but chances are it won't give you as good a... 
Thinking of taking the plunge.
Adasdad, the OP already said: "I have a Wadia 26 DAC, no USB port. It is older technology but still sounds good fed by a transport. 2000.00 all in is the most I can afford"  
Car streaming blues, ain’t marketing great
With an unlimited data plan, I stream Tidal at full resolution on my phone and use Bluetooth to control and listen to in in my Acura RDX. On the interstates I've never had a bandwidth issue. In areas of more spotty coverage I just choose from a fe... 
BIG difference Tidal vs Amazon Music
I tested Prime for 3 months. It was OK. Sound quality was a little uneven from album to album, but mostly OK. I found Tidal to be more consistent and was as good or better than Prime most of the time. Two larger factors included: 1. Tidal con...
