new to streaming- help!
The issue is that neither my iPhone nor my MacBook recognize the player. Dumb question. Are you trying to connect to the Node with the BlueOS app or some other way? Does BlueOS see the Node? Tidal Connect can be finicky. Can you stream Radio P...

I am streaming , how can I play music when provider goes down.
I have Google Fiber with Google mesh router and access points. One disturbing feature I recently discovered is that when the WAN goes down with the new router, so does my LAN. Makes no sense to me and in my 25+ years of broadband internet and 35 ...

Fraudulent sale on eBay
There are a lot of scammers with "Do not bid" messages. Yesterday I flagged such an ad for a Nakamichi Dragon turntable. It was removed in a couple hours. If it's too good to be true, ........      
What was your first record?

What DAC to buy?
The Denafrips Ares II got a new name last Winter. You would be looking for  a Denafrips "Enyo" now.  
Any Present Magnepan 3.7i owner using them in a smaller listening space...
@petaluman That's what Google is for LRS VS LRS+ VS LS50 Meta  
Give 'Ambrosia' another listen
Always liked them... especially when Alan Parsons was involved. Agree... the early albums are best.  
Larry Coryell / Miroslav Vitous Quartet
@audphile1 Thanks for the recommendation. I just enjoyed the album on Qobuz. They only have it in CD quality, but it still sounds great.  
Inexpensive streaming amplifier
EBay has a new, latest version, powernode at a "buy it now" price of $750. It has HDMI for the TV as well. Link for Powernode

SS has definitely written a lot of good music. My favorite SS track is "4 and 20" from the "Deja Vu" album. It’s a simple, haunting song written by SS and performed by him exclusively. When he played it for CN & Y, they were awe-struck, sayin...
